So it appears the club have gone with the popular social media fan choice, which is unsurprising, given every decision taken at the club appears to be to appease fans opinion on social media. I dont know Ten Haag, I do know that the Dutch league is not as good as the Premier League, so it will be interesting to see how he adapts.
It may be the right choice and after 9 years of bad decisions, I hope it is the right one(it has to be) but I cant help having no faith in the decision making process.
I hope he gets the autonomy to build something from the foundations up, and not bow down to social pressures or player power, which seem to dominate the club these days.
There used to be a saying associated with United - Hated, Adored, Never Ignored - well the way the club has been run for a long time, we have started to become irrelevant, which given our history and worldwide support is some achievement by the Glazers and the Board - well done bravo. With this in mind, they have got to give the man a long time, if they can see him on the right path, as the mess we are in is going to take time to sort out - there is no short term fix.
Accept no CL for the next few seasons, build a new team, one with team spirit, and aspirations of achievement, hard work, and pulling for one another at the heart of it and players that know their roles within the team, and not one player is bigger or more important than the team - only then when we have these basic principles then can we try and build back.
