feck him. Goodbye, what a loser.
Wrong answer!No?
Shouldn't the people who hate him on here be glad if the rumor of him quitting is true rather than having a go at him? I assume if he quits the club pays him no money?
On a related note, I remember LvG offering to quit during his second year and then being angry with what the club did to him. Quite a few parallels with that season. Anyway, it looks pretty much certain that it'll be over soon. I just hope he leaves with the FA cup (very unlikely I know)

Ten Hag in those quotes 
If the unthinkable happens and we lose to the sky blues tomorrow, I suggest Ten Hag should be denied entry to the team bus. He may as well resign on the Wembley grounds. That'll be funny though.
The excuses are creeping in with him now, I can't recall him saying things like this up until recently.
There are people that hate him? That's a strong feeling.
Maybe it's a Dutch thing? Threatening to quit and then be all shocked when they take you up on it.
Sure. But you still had a better pool of players to pick from than most of the opposing managers that beat you. What is he? The Paul Pogba of managers where he can be brilliant but if only a magical combination of players are available?
Mate, we might have stood a chance against Chelsea. But with City winning, there's no point going to play the final really. Ten Hag (if he remains our manager till then) has zero clues about playing Manchester City. I miss Ole on that, he had the perfect plan for Manchester City. Glory Man Utd.
I articulated it just fine.
So many excuses
^^^ I’m sure the above is just an example of a completely rational and logical response about a football manager and is in no way personal or vindictive and indicative of an at least extreme dislike of him.
Did LVG offer to quit? I had no idea about that. I remember being furious that we missed out on Klopp because we were set on giving LVG a second season though.
I don’t understand the argument or point you are making about Ten Hag in relation to this quote?
Im sure you didn’t mean to just swear and call him a loser that would be adding nothing to the discussion.
I am a football fan. I was happy and over the moon that we hired him, two years later I say, feck him and sack him. It is completely logical.
We might win the FA cup if he resigns.
Because he makes ridiculous excuses for his failure. Just like you.
Look at the last couple of pages. Maybe hate is too strong a term, but he's certainly despised on here. And he apparently is a clueless wanker or something similar.
Or it's someone that took poorly a quote that is not really palatable. It's not rational because it is a hot take but it is as irrational to jump to the conclusion that it demonstrates hate or to extrapolate it out of context.
Every manager post SAF gets called that, it's endearing nowadays
Exactly this. Of course I don't "hate" Ten Hag. Although I do hate him as our manager right now. It is really not that hard to understand, it is a completely normal situation for a football fan to be in.
Being upset with someone or their work doesn't mean that you hate them. Maybe there are people that hate him, I don't really know but the examples that you are trying to use are more than a stretch.
Like I said, maybe hate is not the term, he's despised on here.
And then a couple of years after they've gone some people think maybe they were on to something.
There is no maybe. We both know that the word was used to paint a particular picture.
Starting to sound like some of his defenders

I am a football fan too. And a Manchester United one.
Im not sure why his quote about not having a full squad available was so triggering you felt compelled to swear and call him a loser?
Can you articulate the reasons why you are unhappy?
We might win if he doesn’t too?
I don’t think we’ll beat City in either scenario though so it’s a pretty poor argument to have to sack someone.
I’m not excusing failure, I’m explaining it in context.
Please point out any explanation I have given that is factually incorrect about this season in relation to Ten Hag? There must be something I have posted otherwise you’re attacking the poster not the post here.
Why is the quote not palatable?
I’m glad you agree it is completely irrational as a response to words spoken that are also factually correct.
It’s not extrapolation. If someone says “feck him he’s a loser” believe it or not I don’t believe that person likes the person they are talking about. Call it intuition?
At this point you are actually being obtuse, no point to go on.
Maybe express your opinion in that way then so that it adds value to the discussion and isn’t just negative without context.
It’s very tiresome to see posts like the initial one quoted which just come across hate fuelled and reactionary which it’s my understanding is not what this thread or the forum is meant for.
He is once again deflecting criticisms and making excuses. Some people will rightfully have an issue with it.
Just one last hint: Maybe the person used to like, or would like to keep liking, the person they are talking about but are now very, very disappointed with them. Is that an acceptable state of mind to you?
Now stop playing dumb.
So you can’t explain why you feel how you do and also cannot point out a single post I have made that was a “ridiculous excuse”.
That’s a shame it feels like you’re not open to explaining your views when someone is asking you to.
It’s also coming across like you’re just attacking the poster now with a baseless accusation and not anything they’ve actually posted.
Shame.
Good luck with that considering pretty much no team ever has full squad healthy.
To
That's the post of a frustrated and fed up fan who's lost hope in the manager.
See I have zero issue with this as an articulated interpretation of his comment.
Can you see the difference between yours and Fortuna’s though and why yours is one that absolutely adds to the discussion while the other adds nothing of value?
So why don’t you just express that?
This isn’t X and I don’t see why poorly written posts that add no value shouldn’t be poked at so the actual views of the poster are clearly understood.
Im also still waiting for a quote of a post of mine that is “ridiculous” id genuinely like to know which you are referring to that made you feel entitled to use that language to describe my posts. I am assuming you meant my posts and not the poster so I’d like you to say which ones are ridiculous.
No but some teams like city rarely get any injuries. And they can run for 120 mins without looking tired. Our players are knackered and injured before running for 90… everyone’s blaming ETH training for it but I doubt Pep does light work training.
