Erik ten Hag - Manchester United manager

[Matriac]

Press conferences are part of a manager's responsibility and they should all have a bit of tact. These are just excuses for ETH repeatedly saying stupid and disruptive things in these press conferences.

He did answer this with tact?

He was asked what he thinks about Rashford going to a nightclub the same day they lose on derby day.

He says that's unacceptable, they have talked about it and that's it. No further comments. Anything else is handled internally.

Then he's asked repeatedly again and only defends Marcus.

Can you imagine if he had answered that he was fine with Rashford going to a nightclub after losing at home to City? The press would run amok with how standards have fallen, that ETH doesn't care, Rashford is a problem, Rashford is a partyboy and so on.

Why no Amrabat? Any ideas?

He’s shite?

Bend the narrative in whatever way you want mate. I'm sure you were saying the same about the Sancho situation.

 

[FreakyJim]

A bitter little egomaniac sidelining Rashford just because he got the whole season wrong and then lying its because of Injury. He should get sacked

Right, it's ETH's fault Rashford is so bad.

Just say you knew about it, it was pre planned and you allowed it because it was his birthday, then fecking tan him in training so the other lads see you won’t stand for it if you’re really against it. You don’t use the word unacceptable in a presser unless you’re trying to draw scrutiny

 

[Matriac]

Yes I was, because he was asked why Sancho isn't playing, and he essentially said he picked the players who have performed the best in training.

You're either wumming or just blindly looking for reasons to hate on the manager.

 

[mu4c_20le]

If Rashford was out on the town then he had to be dropped. It's the Varane situation which seems really odd.

 

[SirAF]

He's doing his contractual obligation by answering the questions.

He's allowed to lie, Ferguson did that all the time.

I'm pretty sure they knew the question was coming in advance, and the United PR department told ETH to call it unacceptable so the media doesn't run with the narrative of how standards have fallen, players minds are more about parties than the derby and so on.

 

[norm87cro]

No its his fault Rashford and Antony dont have competition like Sancho or Greenwood

Yeah now it just looks like he’s not got any control over what his players are doing and they’re flouting his rules on purpose

 

[astracrazy]

Thanks but that's not a response, which proves that you have nothing to say so switched to personal insults.

Saying you talk nonsense and have an agenda is now insulting you?

 

[Castia]

His obsession with Antony sure is something. Genuinely think Dan James is a better player

 

[Redplane]

His obsession with Antony sure is something. Genuinely think Dan James is a better player

He probably figures that he s one of the players that will still play his heart out to save his job - considering that he def seemed like a pure EtH signing. Anthony probably knows as well his time with United is up if Erik goes. Not the worst logic if true, but clearly desperation.

 

[UnofficialDevil]

Right, it's ETH's fault Rashford is so bad.

No only when it suits us. Like if a player is playing well it’s ooh ETH managed to get the best out of this and that player.

 

[Big Ben Foster]

When the deadwood start getting picked regularly again you know the manager is nearing the end.

Unfortunately the squad is almost entirely deadwood at this point

 

[Leftback99]

His obsession with Antony sure is something. Genuinely think Dan James is a better player

He certainly doesn't offer any more than him.

 

[Big Ben Foster]

The club have ultimate responsibility for the signings.
It should not be Eric Ten Hag signing players or recommending players.

Agreed. ETH's responsibilities should be coaching, training, tactics, and man management.

Unfortunately, he doesn't seem to be great at any of those either.

 

[Garethw]

If we are going to settle for this shit on a stick football we may as well have kept Ole.

ETH has us playing some of the worst football I’ve seen.

 

[hobbers]

If Antony comes out for the second half we should sack ETH before he gets on the coach and leave him in London.

 

[Toddler]

He will be gone soon. Whether its a good thing or not I dont know. This team is probably the worst since Sir Alex right now.

 

[Castia]

Worst footballing side in the league aren’t we considering the price of this squad

Championship level setup.

Commentary team absolutely blasting United by the way

 

[Fahad Jawaid]

How on earth after spending soo much we field such a shit lineup. Each one of them looks incapable of playing first time passes bar Eriksen. Plus looking physically weak.

I swear Ten hag should be fired on the basis of recklessly wasting 80m on Antony and 60m on Mount who he never plays. Teams have Rebuild their squads in that amount.

 

[dwd]

He’s too meek.

 

[Bastian]

01:40 in.

Journalist: "Will Marcus be available tomorrow to play"
Ten Hag : "He's available"

Injured.

 

[flameinthesun]

The team will definitely play better once Martinez and Shaw is back. There is massive weakness to this team (outside of the technical level), for a team supposedly battling for a top 4 or cup physically we are very weak. We can't bully teams, half the team constantly get injured. Not saying we need big brutes but too many times we are just getting bullied. It doesn't help that today for example you have Antony, Eriksen, Evans, Dalot and Garnacho all who have a tendency to get bullied. This definitely needs addressing.

 

[mu4c_20le]

What do we do in training? Never string more than three passes together

 

[DJ_21]

He probably figures that he s one of the players that will still play his heart out to save his job - considering that he def seemed like a pure EtH signing. Anthony probably knows as well his time with United is up if Erik goes. Not the worst logic if true, but clearly desperation.

Think we’re stuck with Antony now for years… that’s the problem when you spend so much on a player, it’s near impossible to get rid. When they’re playing awful that is, no one’s gonna be interested in them. After ETH we’re stuck with most of his signings.

 

[Valencia Shin Crosses]

Just sack him already. Please rip the band aid off

 

[DJ_21]

Think they all have fifa tournaments or something.

 

[Di Maria's angel]

I know we haven't been good, at all. I don't think I'd complain if ETH got sacked. However, he hasn't had any luck at all. So many injuries and so many awful refereeing decisions.

 

[Rhyme Animal]

Antony is to Erik as Fellaini was to Moyes…

 

[Cathy Ferguson]

Should not be allowed to sign another player for us.

 

[justboy68]

Honestly things have been so disastrous lately I feared it was going to be worse. We actually should be winning this.

 

[Big Ben Foster]

Think they all have fifa tournaments or something.

Sancho was a poor trainer so that can't be it

 

[klayton88]

He’s too meek.

He's so meek, Drake made a diss track about about him.

 

[Noir]

Well he doesn't have a choice now does he. These lot can't even do the basics, or more accurately don't want to.

No manager sets his team up to just lump the ball away. They are static and simply don't care. Even Pep would struggle with this spoiled and lazy team. Shameful performance from seasoned "professionals".

 

[The-Mezzala]

[/QUOTE]

I was about to post pretty much the exact thing.His signings have been woeful. Team looks so flat and no ideas now. He probably needs to go soon. But unless you can convince De Zerbi.Who out there can motivate this team

 

[DJ_21]

Sancho was a poor trainer so that can't be it

Probably doing the training modes on fifa

 

[Kinsella]

Bunch of snivelling cnuts.

He should just give them the Jim McLean treatment.

Haven’t seen that in ages

Here’s another…
