The board allowed him to force Rangnick out. They gave him power that he didn't have at Ajax. How can you be moving from a smaller club to a bigger club and then be automatically given extra powers?

I remember many people here were cheering his decision because most fans here are reactionary and emotional. If people used logic, it would be obvious that the problems at Manchester United are structural and just buying expensive players alone or just appointing a competent manager alone can't solve them. Look at the way Potter that was coaching Brighton to beautiful football went to the chaotic structure at Chelsea and looked worse than Ole. If a club without proper structure appoints De Zerbi as manager, they might be in for a rude awakening. as well. [b][/b]
grin grin No o, Ten hag is overrated. He does not know how to use tactics. Let us sack him and hire de zerbi or pep or hansi flick. Man utd will transform immediately. angry angry

The board has always been useless, i have been attacking this same board since Van Gaal tenure but on this board since Ole tenure for giving crazy salaries to Martial, Rashford and co amongst other fuvk ups. This was the same reason i wanted Ten Hag to complain if the useless board fall to back him fully on players signings. It was Ten Hag decision not to work with Rangnick so that one is fully on him, was the board suppose to force Rangnick as consultant on him which could have made him reject the job? Rangnick was a failure here as Manager and we rightly criticised him for that, he also accepted a role as Consultant instead of requesting for that of DoF. Whether he would have succeeded as a consultant or maybe later DoF is now a mystery...

I don't think Ten Hag is ready to work with a DoF. He forced Rangnick out because he wanted full control, appointing a DoF now might lead to clash of interest unless their are changes in contract terms...
I feel the reason why he forced Ragnick out was because he felt he won't be comfortable working with him. Perhaps if Man U employs someone who can work hand in hand harmoniously with Ten Haag, someone whom he probably likes and respect, then I feel he'll be open to it.

Maybe an experienced Dof from you guys Golden generation or from Ajax golden generation.

Ragnick says one year is enough.
one year is 3 transfer windows.

From 2020 to 2021.... Only 3 players were starters that Wasn't from Arteta (Xhaka, Tierney and Auba/Laca)

Well he is currently working with Murtough, i think his complete self believe is blocking his eyes from seeing the reality on ground. He needs help on players recruitment, but will he accept an experience football person as DoF? I don't think the board can force a DoF on him either, let him start giving us good football with the 8 players he signed.

I am glad we will not blame Glazer this season

Since we can't blame ETH, I suggest we channel our blames toward LvG Ole and Mourinho

He got his signings wrong. How many of these his new signings played in a possession based footie in their previous clubs.

Most of the present players were used to Counter attack Footie.
For that our teams his players from Ajax and Sancho had played a possession footie before. The rest have counter attacking brain in them.
He got all 8 transfers wrong? As in, most are his former players o. If these players are counter attack merchants, then what kinda football does ETH play?

This is the issue. ETH feels he’s matured enough to handle both sides. Maybe we fuvked up, because we were desperate to sign a good manager, we had a plan, RR + a good manager, only ETH was available. We had to bend a bit to sign him. If everything crashes, it’s on ETH, and then management for not sticking to the plan.

The reason for this is the same reason United can’t conclude transfers early. It’s the same reason they had to let go of their most lethal attacker due to “pressure”. It’s the same reason Maguire has refused to leave and many other negative things that are happening at the club.

Simply put, United is not a strong-willed club, and unfortunately, neither are a large number of their fans.

There are things one sees at the club that you simply can’t see at clubs like R.Madrid or Bayern Munich.
Are you saying if we get Pep or Klopp our players won't start pressing or get replaced?

The players ETH has signed have collectively not given us an iota of what kind of football to expect from his team.

Definitely not absolving ETH of full blame here but even Pep and Co. will hit the same rock he has hit.

At this point, it’s become an endless cycle of sacking managers. Doesn’t this show that there’s a deeper rot somewhere?

United needs more respected footballing brains around that man. They also need strong-willed persons too. Persons that don’t cower to the media.

Decisions need to be taken as a collective. There should be a blueprint for their style of play. Not new managers with extremely contrasting styles and contrasting demands.

Setup a structure and bring in managers who fit into that structure. Not the opposite. That way, you avoid cases like making Maguire instant captain, and constantly buying new players at ridiculous prices for low output.

Grealish sef get for hand but mehn as a United fan we have to concern ourselves with our own issues. The issue with Antony is that there is no evidence at any time in his life that he would ever be a productive player. I am deeply concerned that neither him nor ETH has realized that cutting in to shoot 90% of the time is a kolewerk mode of operation.
Except you're Robben and he looks nothing like Robben.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by TeslaFC: 12:34pm On Aug 24, 2023
Also, having a blueprint aids the notorious and highly ineffective scouting system in doing something good for the club.

Due to my work, I was unable to watch the game on Saturday, but today I watched the full match Tottenham vs manutd.

Wtf are you people moaning about? I think manutd played well, especially in the first half. Mount is trying his best too, but people here and on the media are trying so hard to see ten hag, manutd and mount fail. From the comments I read here, I thought Tottenham annihilated manutd. Bunch of jokers everywhere.

One mumu is already praying that manutd lose against Nottingham

This is spot on. Is like the club is just waiting for Eth to fall into a ditch with his strong head and then tell him "I told you so" with a sack letter. Shouldn't the club just step in or they like the way they're blowing money on average players and keeping the narrative of spending to support the manager go on.

🚨💣 BREAKING: MO SALAH WANTS TO LEAVE LIVERPOOL!

Al-Ittihad will offer him a salary that will make him the HIGHEST PAID player in the Saudi Pro League. 🇸🇦🤑

The Saudi club have already met his representatives in Doha and will offer him more wages than Cristiano Ronaldo.

They are convinced that Salah will be attracted to the prospect of playing in a Muslim country alongside his huge salary.

Well, you've seen that he once had a major say in transfer at first.

Edu was signed the next season (end of 2020) as our dof and while I don't have the link proper of where he was seen to help him, Arsenal all or nothing series did justice to that

Football season starts August and that's when most clubs hire coaches who wants to rebuild or that's when coach starts rebuilding if he came mid season.

Also, we all know major transfers mostly starts August. So we Have Aug-Jan-Aug, which is one year for a rebuild
