  • Just been watching his highlights from last night, and he had only a few moments where he looked decent. His body language looks better and he seems to want to be involved (more than when playing for us), but he's not doing anything a £75m+...
  • I've not seen anything this season that shows me he'll get better results and performances next year. Yes, we might avoid suffering so many injuries, but there's no progression in our style of play or elevation of standards in ETH's post-match...
  • ETH gone? Probably Rashford sold? Can see this happening only if they get the right money and he agrees to go, ie I'm not sure he's got the mojo to make a go at it overseas Greenwood back? Really don't see this happening Sancho back? I think...
  • So far they and the team behind them have made some very shrewd PR moves which - when combined with their on-field performances - have rocketed them to a global audience. It's unlikely to be sustainable though. If they get relegated next season...
  • I think too many of us (me included) got over-excited about bringing in ETH because of his results with Ajax. In hindsight, his 'success' there wasn't quite as grand as we thought, and the standards he's setting here are way below the bar. IMO...
  • I think they've written off this season and although they hope to see improved performances in the remaining league games and cup final, they're not expecting it. Wouldn't look good (in their eyes) to fire Erik now. Decision likely made already...
  • ETH returning to Ajax in June would be the best way to start the summer. Utterly fed up with his deluded press conferences. Go back to your farmers league where you belong.
  • Nah. 3 best in that game: 1) Bruno 2) Maguire 3) Garnacho - direct and progressive (as usual) and unlucky not to score
  • How often have we played possession-based football this season? Doing it against arguably the worst team in the PL and Burnley is one thing, but doing it in our remaining fixtures is another. Will be interesting to see if ETH has been told we...
  • TrailMonkey replied to the thread Who replaces Ten Hag?.
    Wonder how Jim and co will respond if we put in another horror show and fail to win tonight? ETH will no doubt call us unlucky and tell everyone to ignore the 27 shots against.
  • He talks a lot of sense on this occasion. Unfortunately, it's likely he'll be ignored by the power mongers across Parliament because they don't speak his language.
  • Been listening to his presser again. He really has no idea. He says football is about results, therefore our cup achievements should be respected. How about looking at our results in the CL and PL eh? Prcik.
  • TrailMonkey replied to the thread Who replaces Ten Hag?.
    Won't be Emery - he's extended his gig with Villa until 2027.
  • He's trying to deflect accountability and make the media out to be the aggressors. He's probably also defending his ego and spinning anything to keep his job.
  • This 100%. I reckon some of our fans would put up with his attitude if he played like the second coming of Kanchelskis. Unfortunately he’s Pépé reincarnated.
