Him and Klopp are the surest coaches that will deliver trophies
Life after ETH — the next United manager
- Thread starter Red Star One
- Start date
Yep, no more rebuilds needed. Since Ten Hag’s managed to take us to 8th and now 11th in the league let’s keep him forever and just be done with it.

I’d take Rooney over Southgate - still don’t want Ole anywhere near the job
Someone basically identical to ten hag who wins more matches.
Dont want a rebuild, dont want to change direction, dont want to move away from the group of young players we're using or the kind of football we're trying to play. Just feel like the faith, confidence, momentum is in a terrible place and it would be pretty much impossible to turn it around from here. We need a new manager bounce but i'd want someone in a similar vein in most regards to be honest.
I'd aim high and try tempt the likes of nagelsmann or a longer term target and muddle through for a month or two if needed but its way too early to write a season off so i wouldn't hang around too long before i hired someone.

If they want to get rid of ETH they’ll have to do it by November so that they allow whoever takes over (interim or so) to assess what the squad needs for the January window.
That will put pressure on the new board to make signings and spend for the new manager during Jan window. They will wait.
I don’t think that’s a fair statement on what Southgate did with the national team. I don’t even rate him and wouldn’t want him near United; I just think he isn’t as bad as made out, and ETH isn’t nearly as good as made out.
Can someone tell me why we can’t replace him with Ruud as interim if in three years we haven’t seen anything from ETH?
I think if we want to to be the best, we need to go all out for Alonso. City were not scared went for the best manager in Pep and Liverpool went for Klopp. We can’t go second-best as you get second-best results.

Wouldn’t touch him with a barge pole. He’s been a little bit of a stirring shit bag since moving to Marseille
And made a very sarcastic post thanking United for selling him you know who. RDZ is a gobshite
There is a Klopp out of work. Whether he could be convinced to take a giant step is a different matter
The messages here are literally the inverse of the messages 3 years ago…
2021 Caf: Ole out! EtH in!
2024 Caf: EtH out! Ole in!
Yeah I’m sure that’ll solve everything

If I had a choice of Ole interim or Southgate perma manager. Or stick with Hag. There is a clear winner. Give it Ole to the end of the season.
Stop it. I wouldn’t want that gobshite anywhere near OT.
A decent manager but over rated as well and the way he conducted himself, no no and no.
Fair, I wouldn’t want RDZ anywhere near United for similar reasons
Who's the flavour of the month?
I very much doubt Klopp would ever come anywhere near our club because of his love for Liverpool however if it was a choice between Pep and Klopp I would definitely choose Klopp.
He's a spoofer. Wouldn't want him near the club. I just don't see him as a remotely serious manager.
PSV are top of the Erdevisie - who's their manager? Whoever it is, we should take a punt.
Let's to real here, we'd take Klopp with open arms if there was a semblance of truth in him contemplating managing us. To think otherwise is dumb.
He won't though.
Now, back to Ole..

Strikes me as someone who’s up his own arse. His record at Brighton in his last season wasn’t great
There's no way in hell we're ever going to convince Alonso to come here. You know that.
I’d rather Pep, better football for one, each to their own but I think we can safely rule both of them out.
I wouldn't even know what the criteria the management are looking at from the new guy.
Inzaghi
Hopefully part of the criteria is not being as shite as our last 3 full-time managers.
Personally much prefer Klopp’s football. I’m not obsessed with control, I’d rather be entertained. Liverpool were much more interesting to watch at their peak than the robotic muck City do.
Klopp's early days football was far better to watch. I feel his football gradually got worse the longer he stayed though.
The mediocre world of Manchester United will soon eat them up.
I think it was impossible to keep up that football. So maybe that is a flaw. A decline was inevitable.
I wonder how long the next manager will get before the toxic fans* decide he is shit and not up to the job?
The current timescale for judging players seems to be 1 game or less.

True. I also think Liverpool majorly fecked up by not giving him the automy for an overhaul a few years back. He definitely does burn his teams out though. Their later days football wasn't remotely comparable to the stuff he played in his first 4 seasons.
The fanbase is largely forgiving, I mean we're still stuck with ETH after the season he had previously.
It's the media and former players who are far, far worse because they're shouting from a higher pedestal.
Pretty much this. I'd be more than happy for Ole to take over again as a caretaker if it's only for 2 months or so. The good periods with Ole was the best we've been since Fergie and I'd hope he could bring that bounce again for a short period.
But if we're going to want someone relatively soon to come in and take control for the rest of the season we need someone with more tactical nous.
Inzaghi isn't really a flavour of the month candidate. He's got legitimate pedigree for his record in Italy.
McKenna is flavour of the month.
Is Diego Simeone an average manager?
I never really watched Athletico Madrid but I noticed how he was nearly making them compete with Barcelona & even a peak Real Madrid.
I always find it a bit surprising that his name is not even mentioned as a possibility.
Is he that bad?

Alonso turned down Liverpool and Bayern just a few months ago, two of his previous teams who are also in a much better position than we are at the moment. I'd say it's almost a certainty that he has an understanding with Real Madrid (another of his previous teams) that he'll be taking over there in a year or two.
He's about as realistic an option as Klopp is - ie. not at all.
Literally the most forgiving fanbase of all big clubs in the world.
Take it easy.
