Surprised as I thought Ten Hag would be out just cuz INEOS didnt hire him.

Bad move IMO. I dont think he's an elite manager. His signings have all been quite poor with little sign of improvement - except for Martinez but he cant stay fit. I dont see any discernible style of play to get excited about. He has players who, if they showed such a poor attitude at other top clubs, would never play. I think Utd will struggle in the league again.

Ten Hag wasn't great last season, i thought he would be gone. I like the idea of him staying on if it means they finally put an end the to the player power in the dressing room. Sancho for example said he would only come back if ten hag was sacked, but he is under contract, and i don't think INEOS will put up with any more of that

Ten Hag expects a certain level of fitness from players, and many of them couldn't do it, which is why i think there were a lot of injuries. It will take 5 years to get rid of players with the high wages they are on, they wont move anywhere when they are on a good deal at united

Yes, but Man Utd are like the celebrity club that everyone wants to talk about. The manager is never too far away from the sack or being back to the glory days. He wont be given five years and I'm surprised he's been given three years. If Man Utd were in the position that say Spurs are in. If there was an exciting manager with an exciting style of play then I'd be more optimistic. Man Utd conceded more shots than any other team in the Premiership last year yet that manager stays cuz he won a cup and that means Man Utd fans can gas it and claim they had a good season in comparison to other. The cup has papered over the cracks once again and it may have saved his job. I;d be interested to know what Man Utd would think if Ten Hag had stayed having not won the FA cup.

Another thing. Against Coventry TH showed me he doesn't have it. Cov made two simple changes that enabled them to get in behind Wan Bissaka and exploit the space between the centre back and full back. What did TH do? Nothing. Stood there with his arms folded.

Good luck Man Utd fans but I dont see TH doing anything.

Another thing. Sorry, but the FA cup seems to have made people lose their memories. Good job I'm here to remind you.

Another year of this jokers excuses. Lord, Kill me now. Remember the game where Man Utd conceded 4 goals but TH was claiming they were in control of the match - I think it was Chelsea. This is the guy who's been offered another contract and fans think is a genius cuz he's won two cups in consecutive years.

If I were a Man Utd fan concentrate on the 8th place finish, the negative goals difference, crashing out of the Champions league bottom of the group, conceding more shots than any other team and being constantly out played in the league. So good luck with ETH

yes, TH has a better record than many realise. Also, history will show 2 cup wins in seasons where Arsenal continued to win nothing. In a way it's the same as liverpool who were up for the quadruple a couple of seasons ago and ended up with nothing

Football can be a tough game

he refused to apologise though, thats why he didn't play for months and was then shipped out on loan. They also don't want a disruptive voice in the dressing room. He recently said he would come back if TH was sacked. So he won't be back under any circumstances

Well it looks as the our Euros rests on the shoulder of John Stones who’s only played about 12 times this season!!

Edit

John Stones is poorly and has missed training

Whilst I do agree with you on Ten Hag not being a Manager that is of the caliber of what Man Utd should be looking for, there has probably been three things assessed about Man Utd from INEOS perspective.

1. Can they get a Manager that's currently available, that is a better Manager than Ten Hag?

2. He did win the club another trophy this season, even if I personally am suspicious of how Man City had an off day, the day that Man Utd needed to qualify for a European competition.

But if we take it at face value, Ten Hag has won them two trophies, which is two more than what Solskjaer, Moyes, and Rangnick won them.

3. Last but certainly not least, is how many Managers can get the blame for the Man Utd players being lazy?

I'm willing to bet that Man Utd finish above Spurs next season.

Postecoglou's style has been found out, plus speaking of lazy players that lack any motivation to try to win anything.

Weren't Man Utd the same club that nearly brought back Mason Greenwood into the squad?

I wouldn't be surprised if Sancho has a point to prove to Ten Hag, and have his best season for Man Utd.

They were thinking of greenwood as being a good player, which he is. Sancho hasn't been a good player for the last 3 Man U managers that selected him. I will make this prediction now. Sancho will never play for Man U again

I just personally feel that if the club is nearly considering bringing Greenwood back, then Sancho speaking out of term a couple of times could at least warrant a final chance.

But I get it tbf, Sancho hasn't exactly lit the stage up the last few seasons, except for one Champions League game.

because he's an overhyped turd, that's why


Joey Veerman, Jerdy Schouten are the real deal for us at the moment and i do slightly hope Jerdy plays lesser good these euro's for PSV to have good chances at keeping him in eindhoven, Veerman will go i think, same goes for Bakayoko
