Whoever is the next manager, I hope he won't play nonsense settings that make the likes of Bruno and/or Pogba play up front.
That alone should be a sackable offence. Ridiculous really

The only time they were coached to a high enough level in possession post Fergie was under LVG imo. And even that was a approach that was centred around a low risk, horizontal play style in the basic form of positional play. But it was the closest we've got to coaching the team in possession imo.

We barely have any players from that time now.

DDG, Mata, Shaw, Martial, Rashford, Jones, Lingard. Not really the lot you would take serious about their complaint.

Else we're talking about Pogba, Matic who have been here long enough and being coached by good coaches elsewhere to say this kind of thing.

Ronaldo, Cavani was only here for little while under Ole. This quote doesn't make sense for them.

It says talks - which would indicate salary, transfers, compensation, etc etc

This one is closer to done than we think in my opinion. Too much smoke without fire
 
players get away with to much. If the rumours are true about players stop listening to rangnick instructions then they all need binning off. Imagine turning upto work everyday and not listening to your manager… why can’t they all just get a grip and start playing some decent football. There saying they’ve not had world class coaching for years… I’m not being funny but some of the things we see from them every week is awful and they shouldn’t need coaching to not do some of the awful things we see. It’s basic stuff that a 4 year old could do! We need to get out of the habit of being greedy aswell when there are better options available in the box and we’re shooting. Costing us so many points and goals.

It's probably different players at different times with different managers. It comes out because due to bad recruitment all round, letting the club stagnate we are going backwards. If we were winning and competing we wouldn't hear a dicky bird. Too much telling average players they are world class, over paying them to the extent they think they are entitled to a say in how the club is run. It is a mess. So the club can either have a change in mindset or let it just roll on and on.
 
These players have some fecking gall, I'll give them that.

A bunch of serial, underachieving, bottle job cnuts feel "underwhelmed" by Ten Hag. You couldn't make it up.

On the plus side, if the club knows who these players are, then it's not rocket science to come to the conclusion that they're probably the same players who have been a disruptive influence over the last few years. Get rid.

@Grande

(Red circle) Here we go again! Sources inside the Grande camp suggest that player mutiny have rejected Poch to democratically elect Grande as new manager + DoF, on condition of no high intensity training in preseason. Undisclosed player claims ‘Grande would not sub me for having a bad season = trust is a 2 way roundabout’. Contract agreement or first FB poke said to be imminent. (Fistpunch)(Dubious national flag)

- Now if this is true, and I underline ‘if’ (or I would if my ‘underline button’ functioned), I want everyone at the club and their associated agents and MEN journalists shot with a rubber yardstick!

Standards!

The first half against City showed that it works - we fell apart because we conceded stupid goals and our heads dropped. Rashford's performance after he came on showed he shouldn't have started. What would you have done?
 
I truly believe ten Hag is done deal and had been for weeks. But they can't announce it yet as to not create a distraction for Ajax title race. Even it's unlikely to affect the players, but announcing something like this when your current team is in the title race is just asking for trouble from the media and fans.
Once Ajax secured the title, I'm pretty sure United will announce this
 
I also think ETH to United is done and it’ll be one of the worst kept secrets in football when it is officially announced, much like how Jose was when we announced him.

I think when Ajax are pretty much confirmed Eredivisie champions or very close to that, it’ll get announced. I don’t think their last few games are too tricky on paper. A number of them are against the lower half teams. PSV lost ground on the weekend and Ajax beat Feyenoord in the previous round of games, which essentially killed off a potential three horse race if Feyenoord won.

Seen another quote that the dressing room is split over ten Hag. Tbf, “ long been” probably refers to the past few seasons. But while I agree that the coaching under Ole and Mike Phelan etc probably wasn’t great I hate the fact that elite players are using it as an excuse for not even making top 4 this season.

Also the article about players not wanting ten Hag sums up everything that’s wrong within the club. If the football directors decide Sponge Bob SquarePants is the best man for the job then the players need to accept it and do their best. If they don’t like it they put in a transfer request.

Too many players are happy being in the Man Utd comfort zone of £130k+ wages, all the extra millions they get from sponsorships because of being United players, without the demand to perform week in week out and the expectations to challenge for and win serious tittles. They don’t want to leave as they will lose financially even if a club line Newcastle matches or betters their wage, and they don’t want their no pressure no expectations existent at United to be challenged if a serious coach comes in
 
Can some Spanish speaking people here tell us how to pronounce Pochettino?
 
Seeing how De Telegraaf are reporting The Hag is Manchester United’s new manager. De Telegraaf is very well informed about all things Ajax. I am 100% convinced The Hag is our new manager, done dealio en al ***. And it’s best thing that’s happen to us since Fergie was appointed back in ‘86.

Have they?
 
The Hag is a genius. What he’s done at Ajax is outstanding. Tactically brilliant and the places will walk through fire for him whilst being shit scared of him. He’s got that Fergie stare and attention to detail.

I hope he gets the blank check to rid the team of players at his whim.

We will miss out and then he will go to city, real madrid or another top club and then it will be the same theme again and people will say how come we didn't get Pochettino. United need to negotiate with psg and be assertive towards the manager we want. ETH is following the same formula of our previous managerial acquisition in that he is available and we don't have to negotiate with the respective club as much.
