Arteta has only fully implemented his prefered style of play after getting rid of half the squad he actually inherited and the club backing him with signings.
Ten hag needs the same exact backing to be honest. Maguire, mactominay, de gea, awb, jones, van de beek etc need to be sold or just let go and replaced with better players who offer something different to the team. So many fans have been talking about how poor some of these players actually are for a long time now esp maguire and mctominay but there were always some weird fans using the fact that ole plays them as proof that they were good. They never were. We need them to either be bench players or be sold...esp someone like mctominay who you can see doesnt have the basic passing skills needed to be at manutd
I know it's an incendiary area, but Manchester United have spent
a lot of money on players. A lot. If I was the owner, I'd probably be pretty cautious considering the last few years tbh. The problem is we have bought poor players, suffered from dreadful team management, at the same time of seeing a huge decline in the club culture (professionalism etc..).
ETH and his team have come in, and in a matter of months, begun to address that. I think it's incredible work, incredible. We are punching above our weight with what we have, so let's see.
I must add, some of the comments I have read about Christiam Ericksen I find quite strange... the guy has recovered from a near fatal incident, and is now an instrumental reason we are performing as we are. Let's look at those who cannot even seem bothered to even run when they wear a United shirt. Ericksen is a star. Super purchase.
