Yes, Kompany must be fuming.

Erik ten Hag - Manchester United manager
- Thread starter sewey89
- Start date
A change is inevitable. I think the lack of options to succeed him had me warming to the idea of him sticking around and nuking the squad but honestly I think he has lost the dressing room and lost his mind - he will be out the door come end of the cup final. Just like the previous Dutch Man Utd manager.
If it had stayed open until now, "yes" would've probably been at about 20% as a lot of people changed their votes thinking the Sheffield game was the start of a coherent, possession based style. A poor game today would've caused the opposite reaction.
At this point, I feel like it was magic that got us there!
Outplayed by Burnley home and away, we are hitting new lows every week

If this new management has any clue then they will sack him immediately.
I thought Wilcox ordered him to play possession ball? According to @Berbaclass at least

I don't think he's lost the dressing room. The players are trying their best and being professional.
Give it to Tommy Tuchel for a few games and lets see what he can do.
Coventry and home games against Burley and Sheffield United. Huge concerns with no hiding place for Ten Hag. He’s done
Like winning the lottery managing us. Zero standards
This is insane logic.
hopefully some of the injured players returning will help, but it feels like we're limping towards the inevitable
all the games are just copies of the previous games

Sounds like nonsense.
Outworked by Burnley at home whilst also having less of the ball than them. Another brilliant tactic from the bald maestro.

Ayyyyye, thanks @Raoul !
If there are any break clauses, surely it is mostly about CL football. He was hired under the previous regime, after all.
I would have loved Tuchel for that final but the problem is he's still in the CL, so even if he goes out in the semis, there won't be enough time.
The other worry is that he'll keep playing our most important players and run them into the ground to save his pathetic skin and we'll get more injuries and be gassed for the FA cup final which is the only thing that matters until the end of the season (Newcastle are definitely overtaking us for 6th, probably by smashing us at OT).
Give it to Ole until the end of the season. We might have a chance in the cup final.
Has to go after the season latest
We need 10 points from our last 4 games to match the Moyes/Giggs season.
We would also need to score 20 without conceding to match the goal difference

And this was a very poor Burnley team, the worst goalkeeping distribution I have seen this season and the team couldn't score more than 1 goal at home.

Who in their right minds thought that about that game?
And tbh, we habe players capable of magic so you may have a point.
We obviously will allow him to lead us to a proper trashing in the final with half of the stadium applauding him at the end of the match.
We also obviously should have sacked him 6 months ago though, and the idea that any other self-respecting ‘big’ club would allow such a shit manager to finish the season is ridiculous. But we always do ridiculous things and are the worst run club in the world.

Should make this poll public so we can see which posters don’t value going into cup finals with our rivals with any chance of winning

I agree this applies to ten Hag but feck me, to suggest this isn't a picture perfect description of David Moyes too
unbelievable.Not sure we have tailed on this season.
I know, but don't shoot the messenger. I have been calling for ETH's sacking since August/September.
What have we become?
Good to see he worked on how to close it up in the centre
Well, you've answered your own question.
I'm missing a few EtH defenders as well. Maybe they had weekend shopping to do.
@VP89, for one.
Should we hope Bayern lose CL semi final so Tuchel might be available to take over before FA Cup final?
He’s stubbornly sticking to his ways because he knows he’s a goner, so he can spin it that he tried to stamp his way on doing things but they wouldn’t listen.
It’s not helped by the fact that we’re in the midst of an ownership and operational change. I really hope we are more proactive with head coaches going forward. No more of these manager performance clauses that chains us to keep them until they fail it. Just sack managers for shitty football and shitty results in the future. No more writing off entire seasons because a manager wasn’t working out.

Moyes seems much more humble nowadays since he left Sunderland. ETH only seems to get worse.I agree this applies to ten Hag but feck me, to suggest this isn't a picture perfect description of David Moyes too
Our fanbase couldn't pressure a single thing if they tried. We enjoy mediocrity at Manchester United. We revel in it.
Over then.
Multiple players have liked / posted things on social media now questioning the manager. Star pupil Rashford goes out on the piss in Belfast. Sancho publicly questioned him too. I think he has lost the dressing room. There are players there that do not respect the manager. Then you look at their inability to see out a game. Or even score a well worked goal. They are all playing for themselves, not the manager. He has lost the dressing room.
Disgraceful set of stats!
Possession and completed passes at home against relegation fodder
Let's not set our targets too high.
We need 4 points from our last 4 games to match the Ole/Rangnick season.
It does seem really shitty to sack a manager on the eve of a cup final (unless you're a wretched London club) when he's won the right to be there and I still think the sacking of LvG hours after winning a cup final was disgraceful by the club
However...How in the hell are we going to build momentum for the final when your team's fans hate you, the results and playstyle are pleasing no one, and you've got unhappy players in the squad?
