He’s being hired to be a pundit. He’s supposed to talk about the match they’re watching. Do you think he should have pleaded the 5th and refused to criticise anyone on the basis that Manchester United have just had a bad season?
I know I just find it amusing.
Are you his dad? Relax
Sorry, what? I’m calling out shite opinions. With the season we’ve just had, slagging Ten Haag off without resorting to shite opinions should be like shooting fish in a barrel. I’m mainly just amazed that so many of ye are missing. this is brilliant. How wide off the mark you've been today.No one's slagging him, his comments are amusing after the season he's just had, and the fact that it's the person rumoured to replace him is not lost on people.
Him slagging off Southgate is definitely funny. It’s the idea that he’s not in a position to do so that’s nuts. He’s working as a football pundit. Calling out what we all saw happen is literally his job for the day.
Yeah he wasn't wrong, but he was brutally frank, even as a pundit. Usually I expect that from the likes of Sneijder, and maybe Gullit
Well, respect goes both ways, doesn't it. INEOS actively and publicly looking for his replacements after he just won the club an FA CUP, does not reek of respect.
I hope you meant arrogance. If you don’t think you are any good yourself, that’s a bit of a problem.
Yeah this is bang on. Even before this he was somewhat dismissive of Wilcox. I wonder if there's a U-turn in the saga before the season starts.
Compare the two sides....one full of shite, players not following directions, injuries, cnuts refusing to play, zero help from the top, and the other, all the best players in England.
Yes you're correct. English is not my first language so there times I get myself mixed up.
The key here is, what message are INEOS sending the players?
We had one good game, the final.
As I said, I don’t have a problem extending the contract as long as the severance payout is capped. Those terms should understandably remain private. Your points are legitimate. They can also be somewhat combatted by also shipping out underperforming players this summer and having a consistent approach across the board.
Well if you look at the players available and our CB choices, I think that is where the injuries theory/excuse comes in. We were pretty solid once we had Varane and the Butcher back and firing for the final. Anyway, I preferred a new manager but can go along with EtH for another year.
Southgate wanted to play expansive football after the first goal but the players simply disobeyed him.
Are you trying to stereotype Dutch people?
unbelievable.Nothing personal here. It’s just business.
It does evoke Xavi-Barca flashbacks. I want ETH to stay so hopefully it doesn’t go the same way.
In the last couple of pages, people have been discussing the article on The Athletic about United's season. The article claims Varane was opposed to the manager's approach, had a 'challenging' relationship with him, and disobeyed tactical instructions. It also reiterates that Ten Hag attempted to drop him. It's hard to square this with the team being improved by his presence; he cannot be part of the problem and the solution.
The only people here who seem "triggered" are the ones who are surprised that a TV interview resulted in a Caf discussionGod this is all it took the trigger the usual lot yet again
No surprise your one of the ones that replied to my post
He has every right to aswell. INEOS handled it so wrongly. Especially interrupting his holiday with his family. It should have been sorted before he went away so then we could have focused straight on signings. They’ve basically shown that they have no faith in ETH and I reckon the only reason they didn’t get tuchel or someone els is because they probably wanted full control or more wage than what was being offered. So INEOS are basically saying we have no other choice but keep ETH. I’d be fuming if I was him and I’d be tempted to quit my self if that ever happened to me. It’s like he’s being used because no one els wanted the job.
ETH has them by their balls. He is almost goading them and calling them novices.
The stupidity of this club's owners never ceases to amaze you.
Bye bye old Glazers, welcome new Glazers!
It's going to be an interesting next season. ETH will walk out with a huge payout and with his reputation intact as he would claim that the upper management is run by juveniles. He'll claim they undermined him, didn't support him in the window, injuries, yada, yada, yada. Say what you want about him, this guy can talk a good game and knows how to play his pieces.
You think so? 3-2 vs Newcastle, we almost allowed them back into it.
