So how is that relevant to sacking the manager?
No I didn't know what you were saying. If you want to tell me what you clearly have in mind go ahead but don't say something else and when I respond to that something else you get defensive. Otherwise say nothing.
But playing to their strengths won't bring success either. You can't win playing that way.
We as a club since Fergie left have never successful played any type of counter attacking football which was not defensive.
What do you mean? Did you see Madrid beat City last week? You can’t just say a certain way of playing football won’t bring any results. We’re not winning anything now and we’re apparently playing ‘modern football’.
Okay.
It's entirely relevant to this point. You have new people in place at the club who have yet to have their own performance evaluated, and we don't even know if they will be good at their jobs or work well together. Yet you are asserting we can sack the manager every year because of said structure.
They’re done far more than Murtough ever did before he was given the role and if we don’t put our belief in them that they’re capable of doing what we’re currently asking the manager to do then we might as well sack them all today before they get started.
Can someone just send him recordings of this seasons games instead?
I'm suggesting exactly what I said, that we cannot just sack managers every year because a structure is in place. The structure isn't even in place yet and we don't even know if it will work.
Madrid got lucky against City. The way City played the game was far more likely to produce a positive result. Every now and then the team who play like the little team can eke out a result, but in general, the best teams are the ones who value possession and control. Incidentally, these are two things we massively disregard, so I'm not sure how 'modern' our football is.

That can't be good
It's the right way to assess the situation to be fair
Look I don't disagree mate the rebuild hasn't went great, in fact i made a post earlier where I said it's arguably a bigger job to rebuild now than it was 2 years ago so poor has our recruitment been. Ten Hag isn't to blame for all of that, Murtagh and the club are as well.
Fair enough.
It begins.
If I were to guess, this is a leak from the club to appease people like me who want him gone months ago.
I see where you are coming from and the youngsters are a bit of light at the end of the tunnel. But I only mean a bigger job in the sense a lot of money has been spent on the likes of Casemiro, Martinez, Antony and Mount etc who all have question marks over them for various reasons. But then hindsight is a wonderful thing I suppose.
I think Mount is a good addition for where we are trying to go as a club (more high intensity pressing) which he is really good at.
I can forgive Arsenal and also Copenhagen as it was with 10 men. Rest of those results are just terrible. Wolves away was also giving up 3-1 lead but Mainoo saved us. When it's happening whole season then there's clearly a problem.
It's the sort of thing that happens when the outcome is known but you're just trying to make up some evidence to support that outcome. Imagine having a guy like Zidane in charge and some rando technical director comes to write up a report on how you're running training. He'd get headbutted straight out of the club.
No other club does this publically, which leads me to believe the club isn't quite going in the direction most fans seems to think. Guess we'll see in a couple of years though
Seems absurd to keep him in the job if they harbour such doubts about him.
It's just a report from the telegraph. Maybe it's just clickbait who knows , they haven't made a public statement. I think they're right to get it assessed by the right person either way.
Leaks do not involve public statements, and we know this has been going on a the club for years.
What makes you say it's a leak?
