That is plausible, to be fair. Chelsea will certainly be cheering for City tomorrow, as they'll be relegated to the Europa Conference league if we win. Obviously Chelsea will know definitively that we're sacking Ten Hag if McKenna has turned them down to join us (as seems increasingly likely). Steinberg as you say is well connected at Chelsea (and WHU).Steinburg is connected at Chelsea, I don't think the club would leak before tomorrow.
Cheers Boehly. Otherwise he really might've had 1% chance of staying if we beat citeh.Understand Chelsea forced their hand
Gah, I hate agreeing with Crafton.
Why though, if he wants to come here, what ever they offered should have been politely turned down.Understand Chelsea forced their hand
There were rumours in the media previously of players at United not liking his training methods and finding him too much like a school teacher. Mind this was at the height of toxicity and inner leaks. Hopefully most of those players have gone but as anyone knows from a workplace it only takes one toxic character to infect a workplace.What rumours about his methods? How can he lose a dressing room before he’s even arrived? What does that even mean?
Personally I don’t think he was at that stage.I agree with your point but Sir Alex was genuinely a world class manager when he took over United
Clubs like Bayern, Barca, Chelsea and Madrid don't give way to sentiment at all when it comes to managers and they sack title/cup winners as easily as they sack ex-players as soon as they're trending south.Hilarious how when other clubs do it its ok, even ruthless, but when United do it it's suddenly breaking news
You'll see threads about non-United managers filled with people sticking the knife in, telling us all how crap they are after a few bad results. But when it's a United manager? Doesn't matter what they do, we should give them time, and only sack them after asking their permission.Hilarious how when other clubs do it its ok, even ruthless, but when United do it it's suddenly breaking news
I would keep Dalot, maybe Maguire, Bruno, Scott and that is all, the others are either always ill or injured or just a bit rubbish.If it is McKenna, I guess he'd want to keep a lot of the more senior guys around as he'll know them well having coached them under Mourinho/Solskjaer/Rangnick (Dalot, Maguire, Bruno, AWB, Lindelof, McTominay, Rashford, Shaw).

- Jadon should have been sold at least last season when it became evident that he lacked the mental strength to play with United. Not every player is cut for a top club whose constantly under scrutiny. However outing the issue only hurt the clubIt sounds like Ten Hag was open about working in a different structure, but we don’t really know.
Managers get fired all the time. There’s no one on the market right now that we must sign or miss out on a great manager. Maybe Arne Slot, he’s gone.
We can sign the best available or take a punt on McKenna. Or wait if Ten Hag relationship isn’t broken and see what happens.
Jadon: must never play for us again.
I’m concerned about SEG: they have handled some transfers in a dodgy way (Stefan de Vrij sued them) and it appears there is a conflict of interest. On the other hand, it may have helped get Højlund here, dodgy or not.
They also get rid of underperforming managers straight away, we have left it too long, so now we go into a cup final with a manager who knows he has gone, so owes us nothing, a team who know the manager has gone which could work either way and if we don't win no europe. With United it is timing. They left Ole too long as well. The only good thing with no Europe it will actually help the new manager to work on the training ground with a smaller more receptive squad. The diety thing, that is the club and fans trying to take SAF's word literally. He wouldn't have meant stick with a manager if it was detrimental to the club.Clubs like Bayern, Barca, Chelsea and Madrid don't give way to sentiment at all when it comes to managers and they sack title/cup winners as easily as they sack ex-players as soon as they're trending south.
It's at United were the manager is a deity like figure that we expect the club to give in to their every demand and also give them every single courtesy on the way out regardless of the situation. It's just not how football is and how top clubs are run these days.
The clubs that have adapted to the current realities have also done far better on the pitch than we have over the last decade so maybe we can borrow a page from what's working nowadays rather than fight it
Nah that would be @TrebleChamp99Exclusive my arse. Di Marzio broke it first.
Orchestra on the Titanic and all that...Wow 30% still want this guy?
Why should they though? We give journos way too much time as it is, why should the club be responding we're about to play in a final.Even more ominous isn't it? they could easily dismiss the rumours but can't/wont.
Day before a cup final for biggest impact.Shocking it’s been leaked before the Final, can’t help feel it’s a slap in the face for him.
Don’t get me wrong he had to go, but also can’t help wonder, if he could’ve done better with a fully fit squad.
Because the cat is clearly out of the bag.Why should they though? We give journos way too much time as it is, why should the club be responding we're about to play in a final.
Just block him on Twitter, trust me you won't miss himGoldbridge saying it's coming from inside the club. To be fair to him hours ago he tweeted "Parting ways" before this all came out.
True but if there was any chance of him staying they would know regardless of tomorrows result and squash the rumoursWhy should they though? We give journos way too much time as it is, why should the club be responding we're about to play in a final.
I didn't watch or see myself, see it on discord.Just block him on Twitter, trust me you won't miss him
You can't expect the club to confirm every time the journos guessed something right. "Yep you got us! Its true, etc ... "Because the cat is clearly out of the bag.
Agreed, I feel for ten Hag. The cafe has shown how toxic and negative our supporters are to the point they don’t care we have a cup final tomorrow. Honestly feck them, hopefully their energy is spent elsewhere and not on the game.Mixed feelings for me, really wanted him to succeed.
Was wondering that myself, probably Pool, Arsenal or City fansWow 30% still want this guy?
How? The entirety of this forum has been expecting him to be sacked post the FA cup final?Because the cat is clearly out of the bag.
This is not your everyday run-of-the-mill rumour though is it? It's pretty significant.You can't expect the club to confirm every time the journos guessed something right. "Yep you got us! Its true, etc ... "
