If you sack him, you have to replace him, unless you're suggesting going manager less will improve things? If so, you need to provide your reasoning. Same with Ruud, what reasoning do you have to think he'll do a better job? Saying he couldn't be any worse is just irrational, as that's an obvious falsehood.
From the names you listed, all have question marks. Xavi and Potter are the only ones that really fit the kind of proactive football we want to play. Tuchel has question marks given he finished second in a one horse race in Germany last season, and Zidane is interesting but it's unlikely he'll come here.
The reasoning is that Ten Hag is shit, and his team consistently plays like shit, and many of us are at the point where we’d rather risk watching a new person, whoever that is, being shit in a different way than watching Ten Hag be shit in the same way again and again and again.
Because as a possible bonus, the new person might not even be shit. They might like having a functional midfield. Or they might coach our team to not haemorrhage goals in injury time. Or they might figure out a way for our attackers to pass to each other and then kick the ball in the net. All things that have proved mysteriously elusive so far for Ten Hag.
As for the rest, it’s just laughable. “Tuchel has question marks given he finished second in a two horse race”. Can you even hear yourself? We finished 8th with a negative goal difference after spending hundreds of millions of pounds. You don’t think that’s a much bigger question mark? Jesus wept.
