It doesn't help when our rivals sign Rice, Caicedo, Enzo, MacAllister, young hungry midfielders to refresh their squad. We knee jerk and sign Casemiro and then ignore the position for another five years.
Erik ten Hag - Manchester United manager / awaiting clarity from the club over his position
- Thread starter sewey89
- Start date
Set us up ultra negatively to avoid the loss at all costs and guess what?
We did ok today and was left playing our 4th and 5th choice cb
Its not on the manager we’re a cm away from 3 points

I have to say our play is like bottom mid table team. It is not ok!
Got it right at the beginning but couldn't adapt to the game and where the momentum was going. Always playing open, trying to win the game with Evans and Maguire as CB instead of shutting up shop.
Won't last the season at this rate.

Incredible mateSome of these posts
Yeah idk at this point with injuries I find it hard to even judge this season yet. Shit is ridiculous.
He approved the decision in a way didn't he ?
Unless Ten Hag can coach us in the art of defending this is going to be a very long season. We are giving away some alarming goals.
Im losing faith in him quickly
There are a few positives to take from that. If Garnacho's goal stood then I think United go on to win that.
The manager and coaching should go mental about the offside decision like other managers do and develop a siege mentality.
Ultimately, a much better performance than Spurs. If the game ends at 94 minutes, everyone on here is talking about a much improved performance considering we had three first choice members of the back 4 missing from the team.

If this is getting it right I dread the day he gets it even slightly wrong
Exactly. Under another ownership he gets Kim Min Jae ir Todivo instead of Evans or Maguire at the back and we at least hold a draw today.
He needs to stop starting Antony first. He offers nothing. He is a defensive winger paired with most defensive RB ever. Our right side is garbage. The guy has no guts to run and take players on half the time.
Why do you think we lost today?
Useless supporter.
Pretty much. The overall play was pretty bad for most the game but grinding out a result against arsenal away would've been understood considering the situation.
He bought Mount
At what point do we say enough is enough with these defeats away from home?
An embarrassing set of results. If they're not remedied soon, he can go. We'll never win anything of note relying purely on our home form.

Seriously wtf is up with him and his fitness coaching?
Not all things are his fault, the injuries to our two best CBs and best LB is just bad luck, but ffs make some changes.
He needs to stop being such a cowardly loser, and start making big decisions. Stop playing the same players again and again. Our midfield was awful, both Casemiro and Eriksen looked gas, bring on some fresh pair of legs.

Shhh
Christ, Evans and Maguire in defence, one midfield signing injured, our other midfield signing was left to the last minute due to gross mismanagment over the past decade ruining our finances so couldn't play. 3 of our top 4 defenders injured. But all on Ten Haag obviously
Our injury record is absolutely appalling and we're unlucky with Garnacho being slightly offside, but this seems to be the story all too often. We find new, clownish ways of losing away from home every few weeks.
At Spurs the excuse was the no-call penalty, today it's injuries and an offside. We have no composure.
With the amount of injuries our players are picking up you have to start questioning our training/fitness/medical methods.

We barely beat Wolves, lost to Tottenham, barely beat Forest last week (a penalty and a red card) after being down 0-2 at home, and of course lost today. I don’t see progress, and we can’t just keep hoping for Top 4 anyway.
ETH is not going away anytime soon, but if he goes in a month or two, our season may be over. I have seen that before with other managers.

Only if you have eyesight problem.
We will have tons of stupid knee jerk posts about ETH tonight, I think we should have competition for top three most stupid.
Fans are mostly reactionary and braindead. RedCafe ain't different. Best to avoid this cesspool after a loss.
We've seen that day. It ended up 7-0
I don't even know where he's going to play him, but he doesn't control the midfield
We can sack him but we'll be back here in 2 years. We're going nowhere under the Glazers. As if ETH wanted both Evans and Maguire at the club but we literally can never progress as we've seen for the last 11 years.
Will still be like this. We played like bottom-mid table team.
This, 100%.
De Zerbi comes in, and then what? We tell him to identify signings and drive our transfer strategy, when it's something he's never done before in his career?
Arsenal away is one of the few times I can accept struggling to look good, but we didn’t look much different than normal to me.
He has to face tough questions, we can’t win matches away from home. You can’t do well in the league if you only have a realistic chance of a result in half of the matches. We look soft, easy to get at and that’s been made worse with the injuries. This Amrabat better be world class because he’s going to have to do a hell of a lot to make up for our shortcomings.

Who exactly should have been put on the midfield instead of them? Mejbri and Gore? Pellistri? Mount and Amrabat werent on the bench
Huh? Varane is injured. Martinez got injured during the game. He wanted Kim Min Jae or Todibo. The only CBs he had on the bench were Maguire and Evans. There were no other CBs for him to bring on.
£400m in two windows and we play no differently to Nottingham Forest away from home. Other teams managers establish their style within 5 games. Complete and utter joke.
He 'got it right' according to a few on here that day too.We've seen that day. It ended up 7-0
The two bits of football that led to the Rashford goal and the disallowed Garnacho goal were great. Aside from that, as far as the attacking side of the game goes, I'm not enjoying it. Not seeing the progress or what he's trying to do.
I got told all summer that we dont need this, our brilliant manager will play Mount and Bruno with Casemiro and make us a world class transitional team.
