Erik is so shameless to stay at United. He got a cheeks to blame everything except himself. Time of FO.
I really struggle to believe this, because the implication would be that Ratcliffe and Co are morons
Because we have best in class knee jerkers apparently
Ratcliffe was a Brexiteer. The signs were there.
Yeah but according to him in his post match, judge him at the end of the season, just like last season..... deluded and arrogant
So they are going to make me root for Villa then or what
If we beat Villa (l o l) then everything is fine. Ok.
Ten hag did say about INEOS that they are new to football, they don’t know that much or something
Lads we are 6 points off 4th not 60. He's not going anywhere
Insult to Ole
6 points off 4th after 6 games with a -3 goal difference.
I suppose there's always going to be one game that has to be a breaking point for the owners.You have to laugh at this point. So if we win against Villa, it’s make then
As poor as Ten Hag is this and last season, I still have him miles ahead of Ole.
How does Omar Berrada come from City and then tolerate this kind of shit that is going on here at this club? Is he a Man City plant or something to finish us for good?
There’s always a slight flaw in the plan
Yeah but you’re weird. No offence
We are also 6 points of 20th
Rangers have more points and are higher in the EL
Rangers
Rangers
This is lazy from those fans really.. oh they will down tools and throw the manager under the bus.. the poster was probably watching Mark Goldbridge.
We have given Ten Hag a 12 new players, 6 of them who have played under him previously. There is no way I can get behind the "same old players throwing him under the bus" because they are not the same. Only Rashford remains, unless you telling me 1 player has that much influence?
Ole was 6 points off 4th when he was sacked. And that was on the back of a 2nd place finish and reaching a Europa League final.
ten Hag is on the back of United's worst ever PL season. 19 months of terrible football and results, with an FA Cup to cover over a terrible season.
You are not exaggerating. We were 15th on expected points. We finished 8th largely due to our players individually being well above league average standard and able to partly compensate for the flaws of the system.
6 points take other teams 2 games to get and United 6. That is an average of 1.16 points per game. If we say average it to 38 games, I am glad to tell you.. we will beat relegation. We will get 44 points.
There is no evidence that Ten Hag will / can improve on that.
As are you
Rene brilliantly exposing ten Hag.
For anyone thinking Ratcliffe might do well here HITC Sevens just released a video on him that's pretty damning.
United playing terribly, red cards, conceding goals. Rashford subbed off. Villa coming off one of their biggest wins in 40 years. Well coached. Flying high.
3-0 United.
3-0 United.
That's a curious point & you may well be right, he definitely changed the system to have 2 pivots following these results relying more on the counter attacking football we were used to under Ole. However crucially, I think we all as fans looked to the players from Ole's era as the problem given it was only 2 games in for ETH. It would be really interesting if someone had the time or interest to do a recap on those 2 games, to see if the warning signs really were present that early on in his tenure.
Interestingly though, he showed a desire to change system to suit in that first season after those 2 results and we scrapped to 3rd albeit with an overperformance by all the usual metrics. Why on earth he's now dying on his current tactical hill whilst leaving the defense routinely exposed after proving he's able to come up with a solution is beyond all comprehension.
Sticking with ETH for the rest of the season and ditching him in the summer will pretty much ruin the preparation for the next campaign.
We need a clear identity in our play, not this...whatever it is.
Now's the time to move him on.
This season alone can be saved.

"Building something"? Christ on a bike. How can anyone be even remotely positive about what they are watching.
I don't think that can really be a thing anymore.
Dinosaur football doesn't exist anymore In top football for a reason, modern tactics destroy it.
That's not our problem.
He was better in season 1 than Ole ever was, so for me the latter season is redundant. Both not nearly good enough but one brought 2 trophies home. That's all I want to say, don't want to get drawn out into a debate over it.
I play football a few times a week with a mixture of lads. Some are in their early/mid twenties and some in their 30's (including me). You'd have the odd chat about football in general. Some of them are United fans. And it's amazing how much support he had from younger United fans. I suppose most of them were 11-14 when we last won a league title. They can probably barely remember the 2006-2009 period of success. A League Cup probably felt like a CL to them after a 6 year barren spell.
It's an interesting point. Well to be fair, Guardiola changed his 4-3-3 tiki taka also to make it work in Premier League & Klopp his heavy metal pressing etc.. it's normal to adapt, but our adaption is so confusing not many analyst could see the Original Ajax ETH tactics in our current setup anymore.
This is for a different thread. But no.
I don't like Jamie Jackson at all. I'm not a big fan of Mitten either. I know he's well liked by some, but he played a big part in getting fans behind the manager last season.
He was even chuffed with his Twitter poll.
Yeah, that was really pathetic. Bigging up a silly Twitter poll posted five minutes after an FA Cup win, showing it to ETH, talking about it again and again. I mean, come on...
There would be more smoke about potential replacements by now. He's going nowhere soon.
