Erik ten Hag: “We want Frenkie de Jong? I didn't know! [smiles] It's about the right players but I won’t make comments. When there is news, you will know”.

de Jong is going to Chelsea.

Ten Hag on De Jong: "When you develop players in your current squad, in this moment we have players in that position and performing really well."

One If the reason why I became a man UTD fan was seeing Alex Ferguson use player that with no name dominate and win league. You see the class of 92 brought into the team and they grew and became world class. I have read tons of messages here. People criticizing the club for not doing well in the tw. I don't have problem with our tw actives. What I what I want is to see the like of Iqbal and Charlie and the rest get integrated into the team. I want ten hang to push those boys. This is the first in recent years I am some how happy with the team.

You think this is 1999 lmao? People are buying made talents to compete for trophies, you want make we dey use Iqbal and savage compete. Those two won't get into Bournemouth's team for next season and that's facts. No let preseason fool you.

They need to be loaned out to the championship for next season.

Leyqute:


Weren’t you against the club retaining RR, because he was a “shitty coach” although his input would’ve made this TW much more better?

Lol against the club retaining him as how? I kept saying the fuss over the matter is to much as both parties parted ways amicably.

TrebleChamp:
We know . He was my fav too until he bottled Leagues 1 that PSG had won for like 7 season straight...

That doesn't count cuz Tuchel already had them points off first when he took over. He won the league the following season.

Tbh they'd have achieved a lot in the UCL last season, if no for the brain fart from Donraruma.

Harry Redknapp: “De Jong wants to go to Chelsea. I know that for a fact”

Make we dey calm down abeg.

EtH is keen on FDJ that's why we are still after him. Is there anything that suggest he has other options in place and the board are not considering them?

The signings of Malacia, Eriksen, Lisandro all points to the fact that EtH is the one that recommended them. I don't know if you guys want the board to go ahead and sign players ten Hag hasn't recommended.

Whilst EtH has made it clear that we need new signings, he has consistently maintained that it most be the right players a subtle hint that it must be the players he recommends...

The madness the board's done is not setting up a recruitment, scouting team that'll work with Ten Hag as far back as March/April.

We went into the summer banking on recommendations from a manager that has never had to get signings for himself.

Also, how long have we known that we needed a Striker, a RB and a RW? Why did we keep it late before we started discussions for Antony? Why are we starting discussions for Sesko after the start of their season? When are we starting discussions for a RB with liard going out on loan and Bissaka not even in ETH plans at all.

No manager gets signings for himself and not even ten Hag is doing that now. A manager only recommends a player to the recruitment team and they about the business of signing the player.

The problem here is that ten Hag is has not given them options (at least that what everything points at)...I don't want to believe the scouts have not chipped in with suggestions...

In the cause of negotiations with the board, it was reported that EtH insisted on having full control of the first team and it was granted so, if we fail to strengthen key areas due to his insistence on his choices then he should take blame for it...

I think in subsequent windows when we have a defined pattern of play the recruitment team will know the players that best fits us...

You guys will be surprised when man u signed Dejong on deadline day. . You never still understand transfer window. No be everything dem dey yarn out.

Oasis007:
Erik ten Hag asked if he's happy with Manchester United midfield options: "I think so. As we saw in pre-season, we did pretty well there. We have a good team. But we can still strengthen the squad."

This man is a puppet.

Any manager that says he’s happy with our current midfield options is a Glazer puppet. No wonder the Glazers shunned Conte when he was available last season and settled for Ten Hag.

ETH has made his bed. If the results start getting bad, he cannot turn around mid-season and claim the recruitment was poor. ETH had a chance today to send a message to the Glazers but he’s chickened out.

person way wait many months for one player. Abeg shift

United has never missed out on the champions league two seasons in a row so I have nothing to worry about. This season will be fun.

Lol where did I say he's literally getting the players himself. Obviously he's telling the hierarchy what he wants and those are the only players being targeted. And I'm saying the only reason this is happening is because we don't have a recruitment structure behind him in place.

For example who are the alternatives to Dejong available? Dejong or bust shouldn't be a option for any serious team. Antony or bust should be laughed at. Samuel Luckhurst with direct links to Man Utd was talking about Rice and Bellingham as alternatives. Are we using fifa cards to target players now?

The reason he's standing his ground on these his targets is because the recruitment team that'll be working with him on the long run is not available now(which is alarming).

Anyone's got to be thick if he/she believes we're finishing higher than 8th position if we don't sign a midfielder.
Who'll be the backup? Garner? Or those kids?
Or we'll go to those crazy away matches and play a double pivot of Fred and Erikson?

Gandalf the grey with nonsense permutations and predictions.

Ellexy:
Doc tbh ETH shares part of the blame this time around, it's simply the truth.

Firstly oga said it's Dejong or burst. To the best of my knowledge the club has agreed a fee with Barcelona. The club isn't the one holding back the deal, Barca and Dejong are the culprits here.

Also he insisted on getting Timber who later rejected a move, he moved to Martínez and the club paid over the top for a CB with such height. He demanded for Anthony only for Ajax to quote over a 100m which no club in this planet will pay.

He recently came out to say it's not just about signing players but getting the right players in. Now how is this the fault of the club when other clubs refuse to sell the manager’s targets like Anthony or the players themselves refuse to make up their minds like FDJ?

The club hasn't been the best in the last decade we get it but this TW context matters. ETH should get part of the blame for the shit show this window too.

All the blame to be honest, he rejected Rangnick recommendations on players ins and outs. He refused to work with Rangnick as consultant, which made him decide to leave the Club. He insisted on seeing all the players in Pre-season before deciding who goes or stays, Pre-season has ended and we are still stuck with McTom, Elanga and other deadwoods. The board may have been terrible with players transfers, but this season's transfer failure is solely on Uncle Ten..

cool down. it's not that bad. some combinations will struggle in some type of games but everything is not by power.
we need forward players more right now. if we can get the Salzburg striker and a Greenwood return, I'll be happy enough with the squad till January at least.

Ethan Laird should not be sent out on loan. if AWB is in the market, I don't understand why we want to have only one RB in the squad.

You do know Ten Hag must have set some very stringent conditions before accepting this job, that is after taking advice from Van Gaal. In is first official presser, he stated that he would be in charge the football side of things including identifying the right kind of players. I believe the board allowed Rangnick to step down from his consultancy role, in order not to clash with Uncle Ten. He has my full support for 2 season, provided the football looks pretty and i see progress...

Probably you guys are not seeing the mess your club is in, no sensible player with profile and still in his peak will want to go there.

I can see the camps already taking shape, the ETH camp vs anti-ETH camp. Make we dey observe.

How Much be Youri Tielemans?
