Interesting direction to take, going all-in on Dutch players and coaching staff. If ten Hag is as bad a coach as he appears so far, when they sack him, they'll have to go for Koeman. Risky strategy in my view.

I prefer to think that if they bin Poundland they'll be left with lots of shit Dutch backroom staff that the new manager won't want anything to do with as whoever comes in most likely won't have Poundland's 'extensive knowledge' of the Dutch leagues.

They'll all want a nice playoff too that the rags won't be happy/able to fund.

Could even make it suicidal financially to get rid of Poundland.

OK but why can't I find it on the Internet? I've broadened my search query and put 'whose this **** the rags have signed' and it still doesn't bring anything up.

You should have searched for this title:
"How to borrow the release clause money from the selling club for more money? A sure fire way to beat FFP using more debt"

It's a shame berrada is no longer here to leak our targets, so that united can flush out the mercenaries for us, and overpay for them.

Their next manager is already there now. Van Nistelrooij.

Looking at his coaching career, he’s had a bit of success and then stormed off after not being backed by the board. He’ll fit in at United, plus it shows they are still not over their “history”.

Ten Haag is a sitting duck in that job, and he’s too thick to realise he’s already got his replacement on his team.

What next? Make that repulsive tyrant from Govan wear orange and change his name to Johann van-Pisscan?

I think your last paragraph is wrong. Ten Haag is being sensible, Nistelrooy is part of the rags constructed dismissal policy. But Ten Haag is waiting to be sacked and get his pay off, if he quits he won't get that pay off.

My feelings too. And why shouldn't he? The rags treated him with the utmost disrespect with their thinly-veiled threats to sack him after the cup final. In his shoes I'd do the exact same thing and screw them over for millions and millions.

Looks like Ten Hag's still shopping in the Dutch section.

I thought this club's heading towards a new direction, and Ten Hag won't be getting as much control in the transfers? Yet all I see is them trying to sign more Dutch players. Soon they'd have a Dutch XI not good enough to start for the Dutch national side.

They seem to be fully backing a manager they had planned to sack before the FA Cup final.

The arrogance of Tent Peg is astonishing.
"If United sack me, i'll go elsewhere and win trophies"

He has been abysmal since he arrived and lead United to their worst season in the Premier league finishing in 8th position.
He has shown no man management or interpersonal skills.
And there has been no visible sign of a new playing structure.

All he has done is to luck out in one match against a tired team that was challenging for major trophies all season.

So if anybody is under the illusion that United are now heading in a better direction, can rest easy.
Tent peg is not up to the job and never will be.
