"They say he is a legend"
He's such a weirdo, I can't wait.
LOOOL
96 goals in 33 games. That's sounds like the type of manager we want
You can add De Gea and his habit of being glued to the 6 yard box, and yup... I think you might be on to something there.Honestly, as much fun as this Ajax side is to watch, that high line combined with the name Maguire makes me afraid we might end up in the relegation zone next season.
The new manager of Ajax
Being replaced by Alfreud Schreuder apparently of Club Brugge
Another båld fraud
The impressive thing is that he made it all the way to the final of the KNVB cup this year as well where they narrowly lost to an in form PSG. Very good stats for ETH. Can't wait till he turns us into an attacking unit again
More like Alfraud
We’re getting Schreuder, I can almost cry. What a downgrade.
He fits the profile
Look at their goal scoring stats since he took over for Ajax. That's crazy.
He is our weird man.
Wondered why Ten Hag looked like a midget before I realised who was holding the mic.
We're gonna win the league!
It's gonna be like he never left
Ah yeah, WE won, WE'RE the champions, WE'RE the best
Go United!!!Sorry Ajax fans, it's been a long and traumatic season.
Jesus thats VDS? Was wondering where they dragged up Savage
Its actually the ex mechanic off Wheeler Dealers.
And only 17 conceded. Very impressive! Need that defensive solidarity here when he comes.
I mean when your boss is saying they thought you were a weird man in their public congratulatory leaving speech you seriously must come across as a weird dude
"you're weird mate"
"didn't you just fire someone for sending pics of his willy?"
"didn't you just fire someone for sending pics of his willy?"
ETH standing next to VDS makes him look like a manlet
Congrats to the ajax fans.
Now hand him over.
Now hand him over.
I think PSG had an early exit from the cup this year actually.The impressive thing is that he made it all the way to the final of the KNVB cup this year as well where they narrowly lost to an in form PSG. Very good stats for ETH. Can't wait till he turns us into an attacking unit again
Also, PSV has never really been in form this year. They've been blowing hot and cold all season - but had the fight to see the final out.
Erik ten Hag and 'weird' seem to be synonyms. Quirky is great for a fanbase as they take to his idiosyncrasies, if he's successful, but I hope it's not the inlet by which the press try to make a meme out of him.
The spotlight will be intense next season; if he's not given a grace period or the caveats of the shitheap he's walking into are conveniently omitted, it could be a baptism of fire.
I don't doubt his constitution, although it'd be absolutely fantastic if he has the mental fortitude to not let anything outside the club get under his skin, at all.
This is the only managerial appointment I have no niggling doubts about since Fergie retired, and hopefully he can usher in an age of dignity for us once more. Our standards and bar need raising, and if he's the man to turn things around godhood will await him.

Yea, I agree on the last point. He's the first manager appointment I've fully agreed with at the right time.
Moyes - We should have got Jose.
LVG - Wouldn't have needed if we had got Jose in the first place (and LVG never should have managed us)..... Even though I liked him.
Jose - Should have been hired years earlier, was clearly passed his best when we got him.
Ole - Had no choice but to hire him after his good start as interim...... only ended up with him as interim because of the mistakes years earlier.
Ten Hag - The right manager at the right time.
That's not to say it will 100% work out. I do think it was the right choice from the board though, and it's the one I would have made for the first time.
The final interview
Reading this thread makes me sad. It’s an interesting time capsule to see how ETH was respected and seen as the perfect manager for us at that time. He really did a tremendous job at Ajax. Look at Eredivisie table and where Ajax are since he left. I hope he goes back and redeems himself.
I'm sure he misses you a lot as well, we have to just be brave.
Weird that he never released a statement or anything.
