Well that's what Ten Hag keeps saying his system isn't working because players are unavailable. Ok but change the fecking system to suit the players you have then. It's called management so manage the situation.
If that worked then Gareth could make a fortune in conversion therapy circles in the US.
They have said he will be given the FA Cup final, but haven't said he is staying next season, and there is no way him somehow winning that will be the deciding factor, so they've just about said he will be leaving at the end of the season without actually spelling it out for people, which is probably a good idea to do for everyone at this point.
Yes but by this stage the mess has been created in no small part by Ten Hag himself.
Does the OP even watch us or listen to ETH? We are a "transition" team. Which is Dutch-hipster speak for counter attacking. The team is only effective on the counter and has been since Ole's last season. ETH never changed the style of play that drastically in his first season. And now with whatever this is, aside from the suicidal positioning, it is still counter attacking. It's no coincidence we conceede loads of shots, yet have fewer shots and goals scored.
Ok, fair enough - I think I misunderstood your initial post, but we are undoubtedly stronger going forward than defending so maybe the plan was to over power them this way. What ever we were trying to do it wasn’t working!
Get ETH to bamboozle them like he has the fanbase, glazers, murtough, arnold and INEOS.
Isn't that just something media speculate? Have someone actually from the club said that?
Come on, at this point it shouldn't be. Time and again he's survived countless drubbings. INEOS are dithering because apparently none of them have either watched a game this season or are deluded. How else has he been given all this time?
*Southgate purchasing a razor.*
It's on the Telegraph and Times website so I'd assumed the club had said something.
They consider that the season is done and don't think that finding and signing an interim manager has any mid to long term benefit?

Just ‘change the system to suit’ Lindelof, Amrabat at LB, Jonny Evans at centre half and Scott McTominay in midfield is easier said than done. And even then, we’ve dropped a lot of unfortunate points, but this is a very difficult league, you can’t just simply demand that results do not change without half of your team.
I have very low trust in any media when it comes to us. If I haven't heard it from the club, I assume that we are silent about this issue. As we are about lot of other things.
I just cannot believe they will be so stupid to give their project to an unproven club manager who last managed a club 15 years ago. They are not stupid, this won’t happen.
It wasn't done in feburary. If they truly believe that, questions must be asked. This is a really bad attitude to have, and unbecoming of owners of a big club. It's a Nice-esque small club mentality.
Just look at Nice and their Swiss team. They ARE that capable of stupidity.
Why would share something from that garbage source?
We've nothing to suggest that Ineos are not stupid and poor at running football clubs, and their top pick for Football Director has never hired a manager before.
He could be full of shit, but this has been a consistent rumour for months. There's no smoke without fire, someone is feeding the press this.Why would share something from that garbage source?
Of course it does. Think about it.
Southgate is used to dealing with England's best not Manchester United's dross. It would be a risky move if Southgate is still a bad club manager.
Well I don't think it's imagined or that he's entirely wrong either. But it was clearly impractical with the resources he had and ultimately a failure. Hard to deny he lacked street smarts in how he went about this.
First thing is we don't have enough defensive players to do it and if we're not planning on playing that way in the future, what's the point?
I imagine it's because he was best buds with Ashworth.
Guess they were watching yesterday. Can't blame them.
Of course you can do it. Players can play different systems, some managers change systems mid season, some do it mid-game. To suggest it can't be done is a bit baffling.
I thought about it and it still doesn't make sense. It isn't the same bloody squad, so it can't have been in decline for 11 years.Of course it does. Think about it.
The squad that won the league in 2013 was aging and in need of a refresh. Moyes bought
In Mata and Fellaini.
Then there was LVG who decimated the squad selling 26 players including the likes of Rio, Evra, Vidic, Welbeck, Anderson, Fletcher, RVP, Johnny Evans, Chicharito and Nani. He replaced them with Marcos Rojo, Schneiderlin, Schweini, Falcao and Di Maria.
After him there was Jose who sold Rooney, and bought in Lukaku, Bailly, Lindelof and over relied on an aging Ibra.
As we know Ole didn’t get listened to so we missed out on Haaland, Bellingham and Grealish instead signing DVB, Sancho and Ighalo.
The rest you know from the last 2 seasons. Every manager since SAF has overspent on absolute dross and filled our squad with overpaid and under performing players who have no concept of what it means to play for Manchester United or even to challenge for the league.
Would be worse than Moyes
You are calling for heads in your post. Just for all other heads except his.
Perhaps so.
