Nobody else has voiced a problem with it!!
They didn't need to, because I did. Or they just ignored it and moved on, as I wish I had.
You have literally just gone out and made shit up. Astounding.
Which would be a fair way of looking at it
Underestimated how difficult it is to manage Manchester United?
Underestimated the league?
Overestimated his own abilities?
Perhaps a combination of all three.
I think the general perception, for him and most of his supporters, is it was in line with expectations with Martinez and Shaw missing.
No I think Utrecht he had a stint that was very good by their standards but not top 3.
How dare he have an opinion.
Of course those are your only options.
They did actually 5th and 4th place finishes. Qualifying for the EL in both his full seasons there.
* Gestures at this thread *
There might be other factors of course.
That’s how we ended up with Antony
Doesn’t matter. You need to support him and get him whatever he needs or else you are not giving him a chance to succeed. Even if you are underwhelmed by some of the signings.
Indeed
Jacobs mudded
Apparently we're a cup team now, people are happy with a good cup run - the league isn't important it seems.
A season like that is a fall off? Nah man, look at how Ajax is doing since Ten Hag left.
Bosz? I’m not sure he can do it outside of Holland based on his adventures.
I agree
Stay or Go, taking this long to make their decision is not a good look either way IMO
Even if they keep him, it’ll show that they don’t have much confidence in him. No idea why they’re taking this long.
With no timeframe for a decision either, it’s making me wonder if they literally are waiting for Berrada to start.
They have to be putting days between now and the FA cup win purely for optics.
Waiting this long to keep really undermines any confidence left

We still haven't decided on ETH - we sitll haven't decided on Greenwood - but at least we have decided that our workers should not work from home.
Clearly it's not only ETH who thinks of this as a slow process - our new owners do the same.

No such this as waiting to keep. He is under contract, the default is he is staying.
Yeah taking 2 weeks after the FA Cup final to decide we want to keep him screams that we weren't not all that convinced in him. On the other if we sack him, potential targets may be put off or get lured elsewhere.
They have had 2 season's of data (aside from the FA Cup final) for 2 weeks. I don't see how it's in anyone's best interest to delay it too long.
We're delaying because we need to wait for Southgate.
Damn it, Carl
But typically there isn't such a public 'review period' of the incumbent manager that lasts so long.
We all have our opinions on when enough time has passed by before the accusation of dragging on sticks. I say the middle of next week, others might say it’s already dragging on. I doubt anyone would agree that this should go on beyond next weekend. This will be done soon.
Just what these guys that actually watched him every week were saying. Ajax fall off goes much, much deeper than just ETH.
Perhaps another ex Ajax manager is finding he can't replicate it elsewhere too...
This is the same Bosz who started the rebuild at Ajax, after a few years off the map. He also took them to an EL final, something Ten Hag couldn't replicate after getting knocked out of the CL. And now he's probably had a better league season with PSV than ETH managed at Ajax.

Or dragging it out hoping he will quit for another job and save them from having to pay him off.
There is no way we will delay another month.
I remember the games against Benfica; they were very difficult to play against, they are tactically very good.
It is not a shame to go out in two close games against a good opponent. Especially not after winning every group game.
There was a dip in performances but look, they still won the league so what is the problem?
A public review, or statements he was 100% sacked which came from one or two people and was just copy and pasted for clicks and reads. Of which most of those journos have since back tracked and changed their tone and wording.
If EtH stays, then it looks quiet simply like it was a storm in a teacup caused by the british press - not uncommon really. Or at least thats how it will be portrayed.
If he is sacked then thats when it actually looks bad in Ineos, because actually the press was right but they didn't have the neck to do it as planned, so wanted to let water flow under the bridge first. They'll look like cowards.
INEOS: "Hold my beer..."
No chance that happens, ETH isn't stupid and it's not like Real Madrid are waiting until the CL final retire Ancelotti and bring in ETH.
Although it wouldn’t be a complete shock if they get rid of him after the CL final. They seem to like doing that
Disagree. If they‘ve decided to keep that could have been announced last Sunday. I just don’t believe they are only now debating the decision, given the season we’ve had and the data that was available to them prior to the Cup Final. There may be a split amongst the decision makers (whoever they are) but this should have been ironed out weeks ago. The big message this is sending, to me, is they do not have unanimous confidence in EtH - or they would have announced he was here for next season already.
