I'm calling bullshit about these ten Hag reports.
Have we any Dutch blues that can shed any light ?
Hag would have had to get the permission of Ajax to speak to the rags. Surely Ajax would ask how committed he was to them, if he doesn't get the gig they are stuck with a manager who wanted to leave.
Bearing in mind it's an international break, this has all the hall marks of rag propaganda.

Is he Dutch? If so can you send Mrs Mist some dubbel zout drop over please.

This is still a very long way from being a certainty. Without thinking about it for very long - Ten Haag would have to clear out ALL the coaching staff (all the jobs for the boys and ex Fergie stooges) and bring in upto date analysis guys and coaches.
Then the squad - where do you start? Anyone who would buy into the modern pressing game, is sub standard (eg Telles, Diallo etc) and the other suposed stars, will be a dead weight in an already fractured dressing room.

Bailly is a perfect example of a player on big wages willing to sit on his arse ( on the pitch too) and take the money ( at this point, I would like to enter exhibit 1 m'lord - G Bale as an example of what a superstar will do, or not do, for money), so it will take 18/24 months to de toxify that dressing room.

If he goes there, I hope it's for the money and not to help them turn another corner.

I assumed he would be on the list to replace Pep eventually. Honestly, I can’t imagine who else they can find to “interview” that would be better than him.

So, it isn't a good news then. It's United though, so most likely he will follow the same path as their previous Dutch manager.

"We want ten!"

Ten Hag?

10 hags?

Can't see any potential...

I wouldnt be surprised at all.

Ajax are weirdly friendly to and happy to lick the arse of other istree clubs they see as in line with themselves.

Their sales of de ligt to juve, de jong to barca and de beek to united were messaged like they had gone up in the world. Probably true but weird complex of belittling yourself.

They also have van der sar in charge who will be especially friendly with united

 

[VOOMER]

Is he that good? Ajax have unprecedented buying and recruiting power in Holland. Even looking at their youth players, you will find they nicked them other clubs youth setups. So they play with an advantage every season and it will continue. Every now again they will sell a couple of gems and start the process all over again.

Is this just another ‘Ushited way’ rumour? You know - it looks like City are interested so we go for him - rumour.
