The “lower” expectations this season of “just” 4th is a outstanding seasons for then apparently that could give Ten bOb Hak time!

'Cremated Nun Shite' is an anagram for.....?

When will the press stop licking their arse ?
Eriksson clearly wants a bigger club than Brentford. His problem is all the clubs bigger than Brentford don't want him.
DeJong knows he hit lucky when Barca signed him so there is no way he wants to go backwards.

 

[blue whippet]

I think TenHaag is doing the right thing by bringing in lots of Dutch/Dutch league players. He seems to know that he needs to avoid razzmatazz players (I think DeJong and Eriksson arent fair weather players and will do their best if it's no longer toxic there).

Thankfully though other teams are strengthening too. Hopefully enough to make any improvements slower at united. And then because of their mental case expectations they'll cause anything TenHaag does well to be seriously underpressure....hopefully imploding all over again.

I agree with you @TonyM, as much as I would like it to be otherwise, I do think Ten Haag will improve them. They still have financial clout and if he steadies the ship they are capable of building on it. As you say though the rest of us are also improving, and long may that continue.

Shite Cremated Nun?

Happily a spent force, into history they go, like the Flying Scotsman and the Mallard. Goodbye to the age of steam

They may make a comeback when HS2 reaches Manchester.

For the avoidance of doubt, I was referring to the trains.

Arse & Spuds having very decent windows makes Ten Pegg job even more difficult lol

 

[Blue_Rossy]

if they get FDJ it will improve them slightly and I mean ever so slightly, they need a whole new team and reserves to even come close to us. They're at least 4-5 years behind in terms of quality players and transfer windows etc. Im not worried about these in the slightest. And the people that say he will make them title contenders need to change there medication!

Let's be realistic, that's not a difficult task to do given the last two incumbents

Chelsea too.

They'll have had an amazingly successful season finish 4th. Being realistic they should set their expectations at 5th, 6th or 7th.

I hope they sign him as he clearly doesn't want to go there. If he doesn't hit the ground running it's going to turn sour very quickly, and he'll find himself going the same way as DvB. He'll become the next £40m (£80m) player that plays like a £4m transfer deadline day panic buy.

That's true!

Sadly I agree, top coach and let's be honest after Ralph and Ole it's not difficult to improve on that and even with those two muppets , they only just missed out on top 4.

I honestly can't see anything other tham United continuing to struggle. It seems like the new coach is only buying players from Dutch football. That is a recipe for disaster in my view. The Ajax team reached the CL semi which was an achievement but the league in Holland is sub-standard and it is very rare for any player from there to make that jump to the PL (without developing in another league first). It is always a bad sign when a coach can only sign players from his old club. I think it will all end in tears. Happy days.

Everyday they are below us is a good day.
Stay there and suffer you horrible rag bastard.

They will be fine when they start splashing the cash from the Pogba and Jlingz sales.

Hold on..

Erik Ten Months still struggling to prize Eriksen away from that European powerhouse Brentford?
