Are you people serious?
I still think sacking him is the right decision, but today was a great day and I'm glad he can go out on a high. Thanks Erik.
Hold the line. Noone change their vote
I’m leaning that way now after being ETH our since December.
Nobody thought he'd lost the dressing room. This bollocks about the players was obviously wrong for a long time, they've been trying and carrying out his instructions.
That's the absolutely glaring issue.
Irony is that’s exactly what saved Ferguson.
Having Martinez and Varane was a game changer. Having a strong CB partnership and less injuries and we comfortably make top 4 next season. He’s won 2 trophies in a row.!
Some of you act like we’ve been winning leagues and CL the last 11 years.
He’s prob gone, but he’s done well and we can only wonder what might have been had we not been poxed with injuries. Totally outplayed pep today.
He really hasn't
We defended better, but it's still a hit and run tactic that we use against big and smaller teams.
Even last season when everyone was fit, our GD was shite, and we played shite.
We've been piss poor since February 2023. An FA Cup win when we've struggled all competition means nothing. A one off game shouldn't decide a Managers job. It's ok to accept he wasn't quite up to standard.
Glad he's gone out with a bang than a whimper.

I mean, he showed today the difference having his first choice CB pairing can make. I dont think I'd complain if he stays or goes.
Be miserable? Ok you do you so.
We really need to stop comparing every fecking failing manager to SAF's unique situation 30+ years ago
For feck's sake...
Go on, let's keep him!
Go on, let's keep him!
Too late
Did an excellent job today and set the team up perfectly, if only he’d set up this way throughout the season instead of being wide open. If he stays he needs to show flexibility in his tactics going forwards.
I told you I'm fine. Not miserable in the slightest.
If you don't like comments you disagree with, log off.
Not much of an embrace between ETH and Sir Jim
He parked the bus, the train, the yacht, and the carriage, good decision by him.
Thanks for the cups and thanks for the memories, now off you go

Yeah perfect way to bow out. Club onto bigger and better things with hopefully a manager with more nous and pragmatism.
This thread is worse than ever. Sad
Thanks, I appreciate your supportive and understanding words.
Any body language experts? That looked cold between Ratcliffe and Ten Hag.
We better keep him and not be classless
Hope he’s not sacked, would have been a different story this season had it not been for the mountain of injuries.
Well done Erik, another trophy in the bag!

Totally has nothing to do with playing compact and with an actual midfield instead of his usual suicidal tactics.
We should become pen pals.
Not one to do the body language but he looks strangely subdued. I think he knows he's gone
He has the demeanour of someone that has been told this was his last game.
Well maybe not nobody so
There will be Ten Hag inners that will come out and say he deserves another season. For me, it’s just another reason we need to sack him:
1. The argument that the players are shit and therefore Ten Hag deserves less accountability, well, maybe not so much when we are set up properly.
2. The fact that we need to play a low block after 2 years and 400m spent is atrocious.
3. If he was so fecking stubborn that he couldn’t make a change mid season in tactics is an indication that he isn’t good enough.
4. Watching Pep turn some semi-castoffs into a well oiled machine (Kovacic, Akanji) just shows how a top manager can make a difference.
Honestly, happy for Ten Hag that he (hopefully) will leave on a high note, but the list of diabolical records that he has set this season is too long and too eye opening to be ignored.
I’m delighted we won. What’s said on this thread makes absolutely no difference to whether he’s kept or sacked. Only thing that sad is those desperate to see the poll not Change.
Maybe people should enjoy the final and give the whining a day off, he’s probably gone…
A. Thanks - he got it tactically right.
B. We now have footballmen in the boardroom (even if they're Blackburn Rovers 1995 (I had tickets on that day- horrible). They should have been asking questions about that massive hole between defense and midfield. If, behind the scenes, he blames injuries, and his plan going forward is to keep Martinez and Shaw fit, then sack him.
If he has a coherent plan, keep him.

Love how Kambwala gave the trophy to ETH!
Not wearing socks. Sackable offence.
I won't go anywhere thanks. I wish some of ye miserable gits would go somewhere on a day like today though, because you and few others clearly aren't fine, stewing in your bitterness about the manager.
