Obviously, but you know as well as I do that he wouldn't have.
Erik ten Hag | 2024/25 | Sacked

I mean its feasible he'll still have his job if we lose. I've lost count of the number of times I thought "that's surely it" after a disgraceful performance only for Ten Hag to be giving another pre-match press conference by the next game. Whether its because we can't financially afford to let him go or because INEOS are too stubborn to admit they fecked up by not replacing him in the summer is anyone's guess.
Only way I'd say its close to guaranteed is if Villa give us a brutal whooping, I'm talking 4-0 minimum scoreline.
I would argue the way that Daot and Casemiro celebrated the equalizer last night suggests he may have.
Haha...do you think they come in here and vote just to mess with our heads?
To be fair some of the players did not help him by being rather precious. He was not the right fit for United though.
I think the performance is more important than the result to be honest. If we lose 2-0 for example and are just dire I'd still expect him to go.
I can't envisage many scenarios where he keeps his job on Monday morning honestly.
If there is any significance to Ratcliffe being around then likely the decisions is already made.
Yeah I think he stays at very least until Christmas and probably end of season regardless of results.
Probably bollocks but a ridiculous way to run a club if true.
its the mirror, why are people getting so wound up by the mirror.
Its funny when they have headlines that people dont like.. "its for clicks"
Why are you getting so worked up over a Mirror headline?
Hear me out...what if ETH is secretly part of a massive scheme to filter funds to Ajax from United?After we sack him, he returns to Ajax who will have a big transfer money bag.
Maybe they think we have more chance of winning The Championship.
Adaptation suppose to change for the better. This is not adaptation.
In Championship there is Champion.
Reports saying sacked if he looses to Villa.
I don't care if we beat Villa 10 fecking nil he has to be sacked no matter what happens this weekend.
We would be officially the worst run club in the world if he is still here on Tuesday

True.
Yeah, definitely not the right fit but he was dealt a shit hand.
That first transfer window was a disaster. How much of it was down to him with his apparent rescouting of players.
I'll never understand these "make or break" games even if managed to beat Porto and Villa we still would likely play out the rest of the season looking as bad as we have the last year.
Win, lose or draw against Villa, he shouldn't be our manager after it.

The MEN poll went pretty much the same way as this one

I'm 95% sure he won't be sacked and then the media that was saying Porto and Villa were make or break for him will be saying something like how we'll take the international break to decide and then when nothing happens we will get something about them wanting to do a thorough manager search for the next manager and feel like ETH is better than any person they could get to be an interim manager.
I really don't think he is any danger until we get to December, and we are 12th in the league or below and aren't even in the playoff round for Europa.
link?
I'm beginning to very much dislike Ratcliffe now. Bloody amateur moron
Impressive it's pretty much identical as here
I have a feeling you are correct here. I wouldn't believe the media, they aren't in the know. Most of them thought he was sacked regardless of the result of the FA cup final. So we just need to take what we read with a pinch of salt.
The journalists are expecting us to lose which is why they are stating its make or break.
Just feels too little too late.
Villa will take the lead. Ruud will come on as sub and turn the match around
Depressing isn’t it.
That's an understatement. Their United careers are not even in the same galaxy.
McDonnell is an ETH mouthpiece
The Mirror are shite, made that clear in my post.
Yeah, Ole with this team would've at least played with a discernable style and made us hard to beat so easily.
But no, PE teacher etcetera
The journalist is known to have good information to be fair
It’s interesting because it seems it would be completely untenable to go into the break with 7 points from 7 games but there is a feeling Ineos don’t really want to sack him. I do wonder about what goes on behind the scenes and the cliques in our team, some of what we have seen this season re conceding goals I would say is essentially lazy players rather than us getting outplayed. I wonder if they want everything to be fixed behind the scenes before bringing in whoever their top choice is.
Doesn't deserve a nice run of fixtures, however fear you will be right because there's not enough noise
He did say that one of his sources was someone who doesn't work for the club. It's someone who understands the club and how it works. Words to that effect.
That means it's just an opinion of an onlooker within the industry. Not concrete.
I always get the impression that Whitwell is a bit pro ten Hag.
Forgetting what you personally want, do you think Ten Hag would actually be sacked if we lose on Sunday?
Lets be honest, the only way its a nice run of fixtures is if we are in league 2. Brentford, West Ham, Chelsea, Ipswich, Everton are not nice fixtures for Ten Hag.
We cant score goals and we have a habit of conceding 2+ goals in many games. I dont see him winning more than 3/4 PL games up until Christmas if I am honest.
This is what it all boils down to.
Got a comeback win vs Villa at Christmas. 1 point from the next 2 games. Got a big win vs Liverpool in The FA Cup in March. Didn't kick on. Got a big win vs City in The FA Cup final. Didn't build on it during pre-season or this season.
He had potential momentum builders last season. He's had his time. He had enough chances.
