City on the brink for the new triple season (and 2nd in a row), and we are getting battered by CP. Our legacy is destroyed, and that's not all, we are suffering humiliation by humilation.
Who was posting bollocks yesterday about us only losing 3 games this calender year or something?
After seeing what happened in the last final we can't let him manage it.
The majority were signed under Ten Hag. 7 of the 11 starters.
That's it for me. He has to go. Possibly already right now.
Didn't Neville want to do a show where they all go in and manage a club for a few games? Now's the chance!

This one was genuinely funny.But I promise you I’m not a sycophant. It would be weird to think I even could be given this is an internet forum.
I feel like you’re making progress to be fair. You’re at least acknowledging that we need to accept the position this team is actually in. We’re really not in a great shape and so sometimes I agree it would make sense to take your medicine so to speak.
We were never playing Evans and Casemiro at the back with AWB at LB and not having a defensive error leading to a goal. So I agree we should have tonight perked the bus and just been shit to play against.
But that would get Ten Hag sacked. I’m not sure that this result does.
I am not trying to be an arsehole here so please don’t now all pile on with tags calling me a WUM or whatever other mean names. I just don’t think INEOS will look at that performance from Casemiro in defence and blame Ten Hag to the point of sacking him given what they have already seen.
I’m tired of losing, tired of poor results and players playing badly or out of position due to injury. But have you ever seen me go out of my way to be rude or disrespectful to other posters?
If people can’t keep their emotions in check maybe they need to have a little calm down before they decide they want to tag someone they don’t know on an internet forum with an insult.
If it’s not worth the debate why are any of you posting in here? Your views are clearly understood you think Ten Hag should be sacked and don’t want to listen anymore to the reasons why this season may not be entirely his fault.
That’s a completely reasonable position to have reached.
See now this is also not very constructive because despite me getting pelters in here I’m still trying to argue in good faith with people.
Im really not sure what you are hoping to achieve here? Do you believe I am inside his rectum? Why do you believe this and how is this topic relevant to this thread?
Mate I know, I was being sarcastic too haha.
Surely that last sentence is a contradiction? Genuine question, but can you explain why they've not been able to change manager? I'm sure SJR, Blanc, Ashworth, Wilcox are conversing daily. Probably multiple times a day. So why aren't they able to agree to it or put something in place long before now?
Yeah but if you stretch it out over his time here and claim penalty shootout victories as matches won, even though that's literally not how they're recorded, then he's better than Klopp and Arteta so it's all good.
It's actually really dumb considering how Ratcliffe highlighted how important Champions League qualification is to improving our financials and it was clear that Ten Hag wasn't going to achieve that since February. Why not at least try for an interim until the end of the season? Sure they not have succeeded but it's better to try instead of just guaranteeing failure with Ten Hag. Not convinced at all by INEOS so far.
I don't disagree with some of your points, but do you really believe ETH gave him a giant contract??? That's the Glazer club quality of protecting an "asset" on the balance sheet. Nothing to do with the manager.
To be fair it's a pretty record when you consider that it's not his team.
I just don’t see a way back for him, how many managers have come to this position and turned it around?
I read on twitter that he bolted without even facing the fans.
Sums the arrogant coward up. feck him off now.

We're literally in a cup final against one of our biggest rivals.
To not do anything to try and help us for that is negligence
Why do you think Ten Hag should stay, what qualities has he shown so far this season that gives you confidence in him?
Yup, how was that not given a foul I will never know. Unfortunately we have been the cause of our own demise so frequently and poor calls against us do not matter as we are not really competing for anything, it barely registers.
Have to laugh at the irony of the worst performance of the season coming after Neville's weak as piss interview, Ten Hag choosing this week to shovel out the excuses to the press, and desperately try to gaslight his critics and save face.
That includes a purple patch where Højlund was bailing him out. 2 wins in the last 10.
I think he's a decent coach. But he's not a leader and he's not to be trusted in the transfer market.
He's been unlucky this season with injuries but things have got so bad he almost certainly has to go now. If he wins the Cup, okay, a reprieve...but it won't happen, so we should be working full-time on replacing him this summer.

Rinse and repeat, you cannot give up the number of attempts against every game and expect better results.
How is he so bad.
That's the point isn't it, you've just name checked Antony, whereas I can name a fecking tonne more. Any new manager is already being dealt a bad hand if we go into next season with anything close to this squad as it is.
INEOS will always want their own man managing the club. As soon as they took over the football side of the club ETH was a lame duck. He had an opportunity to change their minds of course, but has failed miserably.
We've been saying this all season, Ten Hag would have gotten us relegated without the likes of Bruno bailing him out. However, the season ends in May so I'm not sure why he's saying that like it's only December.
Yes he is being sarcastic as am I.
He wants paying off.
How is he so bad.
My Arsenal supporting brother feels this exact way. He doesn't even take the piss anymore, he's genuinely curious how we're this shite.
People that have been arguing against this point are doing so through the sort term lense, as though we have only turned to shit in recent weeks and there's just no point doing anything at this stage. But the reality is that he should have been gone many months ago, and without a doubt this season could have been rescued.
Time to get Dan Ashworth in.
The Ajax shine is a super power in a way.
No he means that you can’t use the it’s a short sample excuse because it’s may now
He is if he comes in and plays the exact same way. This team, which played a different system last year, managed to finish 3rd and get to two cup finals. I refuse to believe that was solely on the back of having a fit and available left footed CB. Get a manager in who knows how to get the best out of people and we'll improve ten fold. We won't win the league but we're not this bad in reality.
As manager?
Ah okay, with you.
