Sorry I didn’t realise that
Who replaces Ten Hag?
- Thread starter Plant0x84
- Start date
Only if you want to fail miserably as club like United has been doing for almost a decade now
Scouts do not map out the footballing path a club wants to take. The successful clubs these days appoint a high quality DOF who can map out a footballing direction true to a clubs traditions and ideals and then populate it with a manager, coaching staff and players that can bring it to life. On rare occasions they bring in a DOF after the fact of hiring a manager and it works.
If we keep ETH thats our likely path. Either way it will be our most important appointment after a high quality CEO of the David Gill ilk. Assuming clique Ratcliffe really want success at United.
I was probably too kind to Potter. And you're right. He'd be throw out of Hogwarts within a year probably.
United are the club your parents warn you about. Trouble. Stay away.
Actually think van Gaals wife told him to stay away for his health thinking back. And Mourinho doubled in age, which considering he'd been at Chelsea and Madrid before us speaks volumes.
People also forget Ten Hag had long luscious locks when he joined. Spitting image of Ginola in his panten days. Look at the poor bastard now, as bald as the Spurs trophy cabinet is barren.
Nah, we’ve just not hired a top manager in their prime since Sir Alex.
Can we ALL stop this shit now? It’s pathetic.
Ole in vs Ole out was tiresome. Now we have folk name calling cultism.
Simply being of the opinion that ETH should be given time doesn’t equate to a ****, in the same way others should respect the opinion that his time is up. Why must this fan base always fight amongst itself?!
It's those damn Potterists. Heathens the lot of them.Can we ALL stop this shit now? It’s pathetic.

He must be 12 or something. Comes off a prick.Can we ALL stop this shit now? It’s pathetic.

12 losses to Gary Neville no doubt.
If Potter is the next the manager. Then you know Ratcliffe is there simply to stop protests and have the fans supporting mediocrity
Potter is nowhere near good enough.
Brighton improved with De Zerbi succeeding him.

Zidane.
Never gonna happen chap, he just isn’t interested in England.
PotteritesI’m fairly sure the Potters are more interested in a different club.
United could always go full banter club and appoint Pottermus our new manager
Funny thing is The Potters are after Potter. That's how far his stock has fallen.I’m fairly sure the Potters are more interested in a different club.

Never go full banter.
Funnily enough I think he could work out very well at Stoke. I’m sure he’d bring them back to the prem. let’s hope they get him!
Steel cage match Ole vs. Potter. Winner gets the job.
There are worse ways of selecting our new manager, like letting our Board decide.

Go look at the conversation. There is no respect toward SAF, when the implication that a SAF in his prime wouldn't fix this mess; AND SAF decided to retire because he somehow was scared working with the Glazers
That line of thought, fans of what? If not the **** of ETH?

(oh and times have changed, I’m not sure Sir Alex would be able to fix this mess, prime or otherwise)
None of this happened.Get off your high horse.

Feel free to stand by opinion. Just as people think you belong to ETH ****. Don't expect respect when you show such disrespect toward SAF.
In your ******* mind
Fergie would have the current lot confident and preforming probably above their best as a unit. Still might not win us the league. But rewind to last summer and put Fergie in charge, with all the money we've spent, and we'd look a hell of a lot better. He'd have gone nowhere near half or any of these players, he'd have made Kane a priority as he was smart enough to know a goalscorer is crucial.
If he hadn't fixed it yet, we'd be on our way back for sure.
The key point. This mess right now - I don’t know if he could fix.
You might want to look at the definition of ****. You might want to sit down though first.
Well said. Ten Hag isn't perfect, but changing now is missing the point. Spend the rest of the season working on the structure above him, give him the rest of this season to just work on tactics and style of play with the players now we don't have midweek games to worry about. If we're still shit by the start of next season and we've got a viable alternative lined up, then make a change.
Like I said, he'd get some fire in them and have them playing as well as they can. Last year we got 3rd whilst not being amazing. Think we'd all be happy we were going to get better at least. I don't know though, do we really have a worse squad than Villa, for example? Not for me. I think we have some issues in the squad but I do believe we're capable of much better than we're seeing.
Do that yourself.
I don't take advice from some random nobody on the internet, whose opinion is rubbish.
What changes do you want to see made to our structure and how long do you think it will take? Do you think Ratcliffe is on the verge of buying into the club but hasn't established any of this and had conversations with these people?
I think it'll be in place already and announced when he's official. They've already shifted the CEO before they've got their feet under the table. It looks to me like they're unofficially running certain aspects and I suspect major changes will be announced as soon as he arrives. However, I don't think they'll want the team to sink too far and leave them with an even bigger task to arrest the situation, so they'll move the manager on sooner if they need to.
I'd love to see how prime Fergie dealt with the modern footballer. I think there would be more emphasis on the academy in order to avoid the type of person common in the game today similar to bringing the class of 92 through and changing the culture from within.
For ETH credit last season, this squad can do much better than this. This mess right now is nowhere as bad as it's to be believed. Man management and tactic has been poor from ETH. Playing a style ETH is inexperienced with.
Manager gets to choose signings. A manager who actually cover many important aspect of DoF would fail this badly, given the money to buy money?
People must think David Gil, Peter Kenyon were the DoF and SAF just benefited from the directors' recruitment work?
Conte would raise a whole new mess. Great manager but a toxic person behind the scenes.
Would any of them be interested though,there is no doubt getting some of the egos and deadwood out is needed. However we know what these leeches are like when it comes to their fave player and marketing machines.
Exactly. It's very convenient to shift all the blame on players characters, when there is more ETH's now than last season. Why didn't ETH showed these players the door last summer, but instead Rashford Shaw Dalot got contract extension? ETH had no issue to vetoed DDG contract offer right? ETH had the whole of last season to assess these guys right?
Tactic for this season has been poor. It's not just slightly underperforming. This season the performance is reaching disastrous level where previous managers deservedly got the sack.
No one mentioned Marco Silva?
