Agree.
I do think a lot needs to change at the club, but ETH has failed to get it right with almost everything this season. The assumption that time will make things better is naive.
Klopp literally finished outside Top4 last season and he barely scraped to 4th when Ole finished 2nd. Should he have gotten the sack then as well?
We had an insane amount of fixtures last seasons. We played the same amount of games Liverpool did the season before. The main difference is that we played them in half the time they did. Plus add the fact that there was a WC in the middle of the season, so naturally our players are going to be gassed. Give him till December and I expect us to look like a better version of ourselves compared to 12 months ago.
Why is he the one let down and not the other way around?
Everyone has vision, the Glazers have a vision for the club. Woodward and Arnold had vision. Every manager past and future has a vision. It's just another corporate buzzword, like legacy, tradition, united way, feel good factor etc.
Ten Hag's vision might be a bit hampered by his terrible eyesight if he thought signing Mount and Amrabat would unlock our potential.
It's only a buzzword for those who haven't achieved anything in life. SAF himself said he had a vision of how he wanted United to look the moment he walked through the door.
That's not a response. I understand, though, that Ten Hag's cult have run out of ideas to defend this crap served weekly so the only thing they can do now is attacking the others personally. Beginning of the end for this cult.
What is it mate, you don't like the fact that your own biased posting past gets brought up as a means of showing that you don't know what you're talking about? Or the fact that you constantly drone about the Ten Hag cult, when you weren't any better about Conte?
The point is simple: there is plenty to defend ETH over. Simply look at my response to the above poster. If you need to know the simple reason why I don't blame ETH for the loss last night, it's simple: until the Rashford's red we looked twice the team against Copenhagen than Bayern or Galatasaray.
But just to prove to you that I'm not in the ETH cult, I will say this about him. I don't like that he doesn't trust the youth more: Hannibal, Pellistri and Garnacho have each shown that they deserve more minutes, and yet more experienced players got them. Also the fact that some players(not even his) don't get dropped for severly underperforming: ie. Rashford and Bruno.
I can go on and on, but the point is I don't see a better manager available right now. Carlo is sadly unavailable and Potter is a poor man's Ten Hag.
If we want to sack him, we need to revamp the footballing structure first: ie. get a competent DoF, a good footballing CEO and an actual scouting department. Till then, the new manager is going to do what all the managers did post SAF. Pick their targets and players and hope it works out.
So up until we sort this thing, nothing is going to change, nothing. So if that is the case, how about you back the manager and support our club for once, instead of being a miserable sod.
