That's one thing the other is that it was the right time for ETH to move. Each and every manager (apart from SAF) has a development stage, a period when he's absolutely in his prime and then a decline followed by retirement. It comes a stage in every manager's career (apart from SAF) when the competitive edge he had over other competitors vanishes, his tactics aren't as efficient anymore, his communication with the new generation of players wanes and basically he's nowhere near as effective as he once was. Think of Mourinho as an example. These days he celebrates the Conference league win against Feyenoord as if he won the treble again. He knows that his best years are behind him.On a serious note, this was probably one of the main motivations for Ten Hag leaving Ajax. He had to rebuild quite a few squads, top players constantly being taken. Difficult to build a project if it keeps getting dismantled, less likely of that happening over here as he's quite comfortable to bring in his top players over.
Antony wanting only us was known back in June. Back then it was reported Ajax wanted 70m.Too many pages to read back but wasn't he priced at about £40m when Erik first joined us and we refused to pay up?

Apparently we inquired again in mid/late July after he was over his injury and they had raised it to 90m
Who are the 3-4 identical players to Antony that cost 100 million combined (25 million each?)Stupidity. We are giving Ajax money when we could get 3-4 identical players for same money.
Oh well, lets hope his is worth it in the end.
Jeez that's the most positive I've ever seen you beI'm 50/50 on this
They don’t exist. He’s been asked this question before. I agree with him that we’ve been done on the fee, but it’s not my cash, the manager really wants him and he’s still an exciting player.Who are the 3-4 identical players to Antony that cost 100 million combined (25 million each?)
Name them?Stupidity. We are giving Ajax money when we could get 3-4 identical players for same money.
Oh well, lets hope he is worth it.
So better than your view on EtH then?I'm 50/50 on this
