Ten Hag sacked! (P 416)

[BongoBlue]

You would think that in his second year, he would have his team playing in a certain way. Employing his philosophy, so to speak.
They have no fucking plan or style of play, do they? They are just a collection of players just playing off the cuff. And not doing it very well. (As they really have no imagination anyway...)

As currently constituted, they are pretty fucked.

I think if I’m being very generous, GPC’s teams were successful in greater part due to their winning mentality and the way he man-managed them rather than for any particularly sophisticated tactical innovations.

I’m not saying he wasn’t good tactically, but he’s not the kind of manager that teaches systems and processes to his players. He just told them to do a job and they did it. This has bred a set of managers that have a lot of experience of winning things but they have no greater technical insight than any other player-turned-manager

The likes of Cruyff and Pep have created so many brilliant coaches because they expect their players to know the whole plan every bit as much as they do. They demand their players understand every position on the pitch and how it all fits together. The reason we can play exactly the same way even when Pep is in hospital is because he puts 11 managers on the pitch every week.

Not to mention his bullying of referees.

United have to think long-term. Give Ten Haag a few years to establish a club philosophy and then promote his apprentice Steve McLaren to continue his good work.

UMS have 10 more years at least to make this happen.

Their next 3 league fixtures are:

Fulham (a)
Luton (h)
Everton (a)

They will sneak a couple wins and everything will be rosy again. But we all know it'll be papering over the chasm.

 

[Johnny Mars Bar]

Carrick<>Shrek dream ticket.

You jest, but that’s exactly the kind of thing they would actually do.

 

[Gogootz]

The knives are out for Tenth place next week Haag

 

[Akira]

Give it to Giggsey 'till the end of the season.

They will beat Luton that’s for sure, the other two games are tricky, lose all 3 and he’s out the door, to me it’s not a matter of if it’s when, he is out of his depth in the PL

He’s got 3 games

 

[Bluesince1979]

Sack him?
Impossible. As we all know its “not the united way” to sack managers

 

[Kippaxpete]

Yes, Carrick (another from the Class of 92 ?), who was a very good player but has showed little in his first managerial role ?
They are desperate for anyone with a GPC connection.
The dozy buggers don't seem to realise that the GPC has fecked them up royally since 2013.
His hanging around The Swamp is now even worse than when Matt Busby refused to leave them.
Think it's time The Neville brothers took over...

I hope you meant the Chuckle Brothers as this lot would do a better job!

 

[Bluesince1979]

Trouble is, they are in that much of a mess that they cant get rid. They cant have a new coach come in and ask for another half bil to start again and re-buid … again

Hahahahahaha

I suspect you're right. After all, it would be madness to sack Tent Peg now when his players can draw on that "very good" first half performance.

 

[Blue Maverick]

Get knocked out of Mickey mouse cup, lose to Fulham and lose to Copenhagen he’s toast ha ha

 

[Mr Blue Moon]

It’s good to see that he’s got them heading in the right direction. I think if he can secure a place for them in the Championship, it would be a great achievement for him. We need to give him our full backing.

 

[blue b4 the moon]

Lots of away games coming up and ignoring Luton at home, the next time they play anything like a proper home game is Chelsea in December.

They'll likely be out of the CL by then and possibly the LC too with just the FA Cup to go for and we know how then went last season.

Wonder if he'll still be there by then to see a demo?

 

[Centurions]

So, if they win the next game will it be yet another corner turned. How long before someone there realises that every 4 corners turned means you're back where you started? After 10 years of turning the corner, surely the penny must drop that they're actually stuck on a roundabout and there are no corners in sight?

Ole was a stop gap. When they gave him the job it was clear they couldn't afford a big name manager and the new players host would be demanded. They were doing the right thing with Ole and let a few big wage deals run out.

But then they wasted all that capacity. Ronaldo, not an Ole choice, was a shit move.

It doesn't really matter who the manager is, they have to get much better at managing the squad.

Absolutely no forward planning. Citys next manager will be picked for the way he plays, there wont be any player over haul required because we will already have them. Not saying someones going to come in and it be seem less and carry on peps success but we will have an idea right now, who we will get if , god forbid, pep jacks it in today

Those silly bastards wont have a clue

But … the glazers dont care. Still get their dividends
