We should be balls deep in squad planning instead of dithering on this decision. Players don’t know who is going to be the manager. Bruno is looking for a new club. It is also deeply disrespectful to Ten Hag.

I’d be surprised if he’s not sacked tomorrow. It’s a shambles.

I wish you were right. We need to make those improvements you mention but we need competition for every position. Basically two players who are the required level for each.

He won all group games once with Ajax so he has it in him.

The level of the final wasn’t that high to be frank. Dortmund played well to get to semi-final and should have stranded there. Madrid have that confidence and quality that allows them to win games that they are losing. Like fecking Italian teams.

Someone who has shit tactics can limp his way to a quarter finals. But won’t win all 6 CL group games.

I believe they mostly tried, too. There is a whole lot of reasons why things didn’t work and that needs to be sorted out. Injuries of course are a big part of it, but are not enough to explain some of the diabolical performances. I do think some players have let down Ten Hag, but he had to...

Agree. He was unique and times have changed.

Name one of those smaller budget teams that won all of their six group games?

Cunha is good but that is big money. With the prices as high as they are, maybe we should grow our own players. Invest in cloning.

Bollocks man, Ajax has a small budget compared to most CL teams and has to overperform to get anywhere in Europe. When things align they can go far, but that happens infrequently. Calling 21/22 underwhelming is nonsense: they won all six games and obliterated Dorrmund and Amorim’s Sporting...

Jose made us play zombie football, the EL cup run was a slog. He would not have finished as high as he did in the league with the current level of competition either. He never faced this amount of injuries (Van Gaal did) did he?

clear.

Ten Hag said the review was done. There are reports the club has talked to other managers and that the club is still being reviewed. Maybe they are different reviews assessing different aspects. Anyway, things aren’t looking good. Bruno’s agent is busy talking to other clubs.

I think you are looking at this upside down. An attack into space is a high percentage approach: breaking down a block is a low percentage approach. Again I don’t hear anyone mention injuries when discussing the ‘terrible setup’.
