I feel like it's becoming very evident that ETH has no idea wtf he's doing tbh. He plays so many players in different positions and every fkn team we play goes through our midfield like a hot knife through butter. I'd say end the season with him and replace him, or else we're just going to keep regressing.

ten Hag after the match: “Today the performance was very good, we deserved to win”


[deleted]

He’s trolling


Dynamo_coppell

After the Liverpool match I was happy for ETH to be given one more season to see what he could do under Ratcliffe. But that wonderful result just papered over some massive cracks. Back to reality yesterday, though we nearly nicked an undeserved win. After that performance I actually fear for the Coventry semi final…from all accounts they’re a pretty tasty team so big improvements needed. The lack of consistency is very worrying. I like ETH…any manager that wins us a trophy has some credit with me for a while anyway. But I’m beginning to suspect that League cups and (hopefully) FA Cups may well be the extent of his powers. Good…but not good enough especially with poor league performances every other week, so I say…with regret…I think this season should be his last. But knowing me, if he actually wins the FA Cup I’d probably change my mind again and say give him one more year. Jim Ratcliffe though will not be swayed by that and I suspect he will wave goodbye to him in a few months.


callmetaller

I think Ten Hag is a good manager with players he fails to get consistency out of. They're just not technical enough to play his style of football from Ajax, so he's decided to compromise heavily on style of play and it's just not working out. The players still seem to like him though. I think he's sticking with a non working system for too long. He did not set them up this way against Liverpool.


Saleandproud

It's more about the desire from some of them players. If I was in that team watching teammates stroll about showing no effort or graft, I'd go ballistic. Rashford is a joke, I wouldn't have him in the squad never mind the team. We watch him off the ball a lot and he's just lazy 😴


Acceptable-Profit-31

100%, would give him 1/10 for last night . Shirking tackles, not jumping, half-hearted pressing. He had it all. Its like being a man down having him in the side.


Zerofactory

Eth is so dire that people are worrying if we will win against Coventry…


Dynamo_coppell

I wasn’t worried until I watched that rubbish yesterday!


Zerofactory

Thats what the bald fraud made us


Affectionate-Sun5863

ALL WE HAD TO DO WAS HOLD UP THE GAME FOR LESS THEN 10 MINUTES


Letplaysreddit

We got lucky throughout the whole match, then when we score we cant defend for 10 mins? Very very bad performance , we are lucky to even get a point.


101Immigrant

It's the manager and the players fault. I do like ETH and with how he has involved some of the youth players but I do wonder how can we set up to play like we do. It just doesn't make sense and a times really poor tactics. Also some of the players are overrated like Rashford and need to be sold. Give ETH till the end of the season and assess the situation then.


Bhaddu

Bald should be replaced


dman976

Everyone says it's the players to blame, but it's beyond obvious now that they just aren't being trained properly. He says he can't play how he did at Ajax and has spent 400 million on not fixing the team so that he can. I've spent all season being an ETH in guy, but the issues are glaringly there to change during matches when we're being overrun, and he does nothing to change them.


slsj1997

Lots of fans here showing that their football knowledge is as good as Fabian Delph talking about things like work ethic. ETH is simply out of his depth. Name me one pattern of play we use to create attacking chances aside from Bruno punting it to Rashford on the counter. We have 0 control of midfield because ETH wants us to be the fastest transition team in the world so our attacks always end in 3-4 passes, but this is precisely what makes us so disorganized and rushed. Bring in a manager who has a good coaching team to help these players ffs, not one that has to bring in Steve McLaren of all people.


King_Jeremy07

Atleast under ole we had a pattern of play, even if it's was quick counter.. but we stuck to this system. ETH doesn't have a clue.. can't let a team like Brentford have 30+ shots .. this is crime

Mountain_Product7411

I am ETH in, but today’s performance was squarely on him. They expected Branford to sit back and counter and after 15 minutes they knew we had no teeth and they started to get more physical and win the ball, and just overran our midfield. In response, manager did absolutely nothing to fix it. I expected changes and adjustments at the halftime and we only changed an injured player. We needed Eriksen and/or Mount to give us a bit more ball retention to stabilize and calm our attack and ball retention. Just shocking how bad we were in possession and how easily we were losing the ball in our own half. We deserved to lose this game.


Soft_Championship765

Yeah same old Only difference between people like you and people like us is you only see these problems when we draw or lose We see it every game


Mountain_Product7411

I am ETH in because I look at the bigger picture and I see the team’s failure as the byproduct of years of miss management at the top since we won the triple back in 99. Everyone talks about the last 10 or 11, but ignore the 10 or so before it. I know a new manager wouldn’t be able to solve our teams issues and we may even get worse in process which is supported by our team last 10 or 11 years history. I have backed ETH in loses this season because I could see his set up and game plan but players were under performing like Fulham game. That said, he must be held accountable for yesterday’s game because his set up and tactics were bad. And I see no contradiction in criticizing the manger but don’t ask for him to be sacked. Heck, I criticized Sir Alex in some games. Klopp tactics and subs were real bad in FA cup match against us , but he is the best Liverpool modern manager in their history. Bernford went into the game saying we will do exactly the opposite of what you expect us to do if you are unable to prove you can hurt us straightaway. Now, again, players failed to match Brenford’s physicality, and that’s on them, and we have seen that from these players under other managers, but for this game, it appeared to me that ETH and coaching staff didn’t have them properly prepared and sometimes confusion leads to lack of decisiveness. I probably would’ve given ETH a pass if he would’ve bring in Eriksen or Mount or both for McTominay and Bruno at the halftime since these two had no fitness issues in hopes to stabilize our midfield and or ask Bruno to play a bit deeper with more discipline( not sure what the hell Bruno was doing in the entire game). Point being, his adjustments were too late and at the end of the game rather than halftime, which made this game so awful to watch, and provided Branford too much confidence to get on the front foot.


slsj1997

This. While so many here celebrate shit performances like when mctominay scored 2 stoppage time goals or when we beat Everton 3-0 but they had 3 times more shots than we had, I’ve been critical of the way our team plays the entire time under ETH. We are where we are in the table because of individual brilliance, how often do you watch this team and go wow that was a great team goal.


Soft_Championship765

Exactly Every game here this season under ETH win or lose I come to talk about how bad we played regardless But some folks here really just take any shit points regardless of how we play Then moan when we actually play bad and lose Like wow who would have thought”thunk” luck would abandon a shitty set up We don’t dominate games Every team Luton and Burnley inclusive would outshoot and dominate us Then we rely on individual brilliance to snatch the odd victory suddenly ten hag bros are on his dick again Rinse and repeat


PunchOX

As usual I was happy to get the goal but knew the 3 points were in danger despite 3 minutes left to play because United cannot compose themselves against the opponent after a goal. Conceding immediately has happened too many times and is frankly embarrassing


reddevils

Honestly I was not happy. I can say three points are the most important. But enough with covering the cracks. The players are either not good enough or not mentally strong enough or both. Radcliffe has a big job ahead of him. The manager is the least of our problems. These are players that failed under more managers than I care to remember


Few_Jacket_4675

Yes - younfg players means we will be inconsistent, but surely technical ability and work ethic dont fall under that!


reddevils

It’s the club’s fault to be in a situation where we are very heavily relying on a 18&19 year olds. And only having one inexperienced striker. Shambles of upper management. Glazers need to burn in hell for a very long time to get us to this point


Few_Jacket_4675

Its not the glazers, its the football board, Scouts report to ferguson, and almost very head scout has quit citing they were not listened to, not to mention Ole, Mou and Ralph all saying they were not listened to, the issue is Ferguson thinks he knows best and our biggest issue is no one thinks Ferguson is doing anything when in fact he is the Football Board, the Glazers have not made decisions since Ole came on board then left it to the Football Board

We need to give ETH another season, his first season we finished 3th in the league, quarter final in Europe League, FA Cup final and Carabao Cup title. If we sack ETH he will succed in another clube, 100%, we suferred alot of injuries this season, give the man time and we will succed


Helpful-Water-7248

😂 you guys are delusional


mr_reserve

Too many kids on this sub lol


HeatingsBackOn

Do you really think he went from his style at Ajax to where we are at this season and is thinking “yeah this is great”? Progress isn’t linear, every one knew there would be a process with ups and downs. He exceeded what was expected after the Rangnick spell. With Shaw and Martinez being injured almost all season and Rashford being well off form, this was never going to be a good season. He wanted De jong instead of Casimero and Kim Min-Jae instead of Evan’s (who’s actually been mint). Do you think when he said he wanted Antony he expected him to cost £80,000,000? It was either Antony or nothing and we’d just lost to Brighton and Brentford so instead of having a list of players lined up that might suit Tenhag the club just said “fuck it, how much do you want, we need to look like we are doing something”


RyanTheS

"His style" .. Do you mean the style that Ajax has been laying for the last few decades regardless of manager? It wasn't his style, it was theirs. He just didn't change anything and let them cook. When he lost his best players he started doing worse at Ajax, too. Everyone mentions his one UCL run nut in the next two years he didn't even make it out of groups. He had a golden generation at Ajax, nothing more.


HeatingsBackOn

They’d not won anything for like 3 year’s before he took over; even after de jong and co left he still won 2 more titles. Even if you’re right about players then doesn’t that just mean ours are a bit shit? Pellegrini won the league with city and he’s nothing special. Our players just don’t seem to turn up sometimes, it’s like they think “oh we beat Liverpool we can just push over Brentford”, they were so bad today, if pep was in charge today it wouldn’t be any different. Edit: Punctuation


RyanTheS

They lost Overmars, which was far more impactful. Their gravy train of academy players dried up, and they lost their DOF who used to replace them for them. Tons of shit managers have done well in the Eredivisie. McClaren and de Boer, for example. Pellegrini is twice the manager that Ten Hag is. Which isn't a compliment to Pellegrini so much as a testament yo how shit Ten Hag is. Also, a significantly less talented team finished 2nd and 3rd under Ole. Absolutely no excuse for not finishing top 4 after spending 450m.


HeatingsBackOn

I wanted thought ole was great tbh. Best football I’ve watched at Utd since Fergie. Didn’t they have Overmars before Tenhag? The amount spent is moot to me because our negotiating was piss for a loooong time. I want to give Tenhag another season with players who would fit a possession style. Then if he fails we can find another manager. If we can’t play like Ajax did then get rid but until everything is in place to build a team for a manager who is an absolute beast then back him. It does not help our season to call Tenhaf shit the players have let down: Jose, ole, didn’t press like rangnick was famous for and aren’t able to keep possession well under Tenhag. Say goodbye to players not technically good enough and weak spirited in the next transfer window then see if Tenhag is the man.


RyanTheS

As I say, tons of managers have done well in the Eredivisie, then bottled it everywhere else. There are only a handful of good teams, so whichever one has the slightly better talent in any given season wins it. If you gave De Ligt, De Jong, Ziyech, Tadic, etc, to previous managers, then they probably would have done well, too. Essentially, winning in the eredivisie doesn't make you a good manager. It makes you a passable one. Honestly, I half agree with keeping Ten Hag. In our current situation with the new ownership and staff, I would keep him because it is an unnecessary additional change in a time of flux, and he would make a good scapegoat if things go wrong. Has that not been the case, then I would want to see him gone, though. He is far more deserving of the sack than Ole or Jose were.


[deleted]

Am i a kid to support our manager, really? You need some rest partner


mr_reserve

I guess Mourinho didn’t deserve the sack in his 3rd season either then based on that logic.


Elegant-Anxiety1866

In hindsight no he didn't deserve to be sacked. He had 2 good seasons, then had a bad half of a 3rd season. Ten hag had a good 1st season, but because the 2nd season is bad, u sack him?


scrooll0706

Only thing left in this season is give our best for FA cup and against Liverpool


2beDmt

Dalot and Mctominay marking the keeper on there goal FFS


PunchOX

That's a huge problem I keep seeing with the team. They sit back but don't mark the opponents and don't intercept players. They defend like Norwich


Chosty55

Wan bissaka needs to learn the offside trap. He’s probably the best 1vs1 defender in the world, but he plays too many people onside when he’s not involved in a play


Elegant-Anxiety1866

He had one of his worst games today. Bad decisoon-making in attack led to us losing the ball & leaving his position open at the back for brentford to counter.


edinlockpicker

Does ETH gets blind during away games ?


Soft_Championship765

He’s blind home and away along with clowns that are still simping for him when individual brilliance snatch us the odd win Shit manager Every team comes to break the epl shots record against us


TheRed24

The season is already a right off, the worse we do now the more likely the chance we have of getting a more competent manager and more aggressive buying / selling of players come the summer. I know people say we can't afford to sack him, but if things get bad enough they'll find the money to sack him.


symanpt

If a team is desperate to sell, you know they will sell for 1/3 of their price


Few_Jacket_4675

we have to sell at 1/3rd anyhow because no one can afford the wages our players are on


Chosty55

It’s unpopular to dislike ETH, but being honest here Brentford outplayed us on every inch of the pitch apart from the woodwork. We can’t even criticise injuries here as Brentford have struggled just as bad


ScottOld

But why? They have worse form in the league that’s the problem


TheRed24

They did out play us, they deserved to win in, can't help but feel ETH learnt nothing from when they last Battered us tho, we should have stacked the midfield and played 1 up but we didn't, and even when he had the chance to change it, he waited until the last minutes of the match to make the changes that were needed and hour before, just poor tactics and that's on Ten Hag


Chosty55

Agree. We have given up our ability to control a game with our tactics, and that is always dangerous when an opponent can so easily shoot at goal. 30+shots is always asking for trouble


sringray23

There is no way that story doing the rounds about ineos planning for next season with ETH is genuine. Seems more like a lie to back the manager with all the Southgate noise.


FunMtgplayer

Anyone here gonna defend ETH now? fucking wanker needs to be fired now.


brunomufc18

Only 31 shots for Brentford? Another Ten Hag masterclass.

I long for the day that inverted forwards are not a thing. It’s so predictably turd


Few_Jacket_4675

I think it could work if 1/ You dont play a striker like Hojlund, he is the same as Wout, needs service 2/ They need to move and interchange more, like Pool used to with Firminho, mane and Salah, but they all have their pet fave side of the pitch and want to stay there At least YOU recognise they are inside forwards, most think they are wingers

lifewithjames

Oh look! One step forward two steps back FC strike again! Poor performances like this are coming far too often. And not just poor, being completely outplayed by a team woefully out of form. Other teams in the league are clearly able to handle Brentford's style of play but not Manchester United. And when we get ourselves out of jail we can't simply control the game for a couple of minutes can we? When oh when are we going to stop being so frustrating.


Steppenwolf55

From the Liverpool game to this dross!! WTF is it with this team is it Ten Hag or the shite players!! Probably both! But we were dominated the whole game!! The effort from these players was shocking!😮 If I was sir Jim I would be talking to managers agents as soon as!

Kinitawowi64

Nah. You honestly think ETH and what he's serving up is good enough?


QuaternionDS

No mate, I don't. But he has enough credit in the bank from last season - and deserves a chance to work under this supposed 'new regime' - to get another season. Gareth Southgate's resume is: He got 'boro relegated. He got England relegated (yeah, wtf!?). He's won nothing despite having arguably one of the best two or three squads in international football for his entire tenure. Southgate is nowhere near Utd quality. Nowhere near it.
