Banter club.

Quote from: AustinPowers on May 24, 2024, 11:00:33 AMIN all honesty, can anyone see Ten Hag being still there next season?

I don't think there's a hope in hell he'll be there come August, fa cup win or not. I would imagine his replacement has been sorted out weeks ago

Having watched his FA Cup final press conference he doesn't sound like a manager that's departing. Looking at those touted in the media to replace him none would be much of a upgrade and few would be down grades.

On McKenna did a decent job as coach when Ole was United manager and has done well with ipswich he'll have plenty of interest from lots of clubs now but might stick with Ipswich for another year and avoiding relegation with them would be another successfully season

There were leaks when he was a coach that his trainings weren't very good. Has maybe improved but he was already thrown under the bus before to help sack Ole by the players

Others said his and Carrick's training was very good but the message wasn't getting through to the clampits that were playing. Or the few that weren't playing were happy to leak out stuff to undermine the coaches too.

Leaks from tools who were downing tools to rinse and repeat the cycle of hiring and firing managers.
Christ when you talk about clearing out players the likes of McTominnay, Maguire get named but they are decent lads who can do a job when needs be.

There are others who are feed info to the media and are frankly not grown-ups. They need clearing out. Even if they can play well, it's not worth it.

Some lads are honest but just past it. Prime Eriksena and Casemiro would be additions to any dressing room. Antony needs ran as a prime example. Sancho has played well for 6 months and can be good, but is he a good lad.

What happens if things get sticky with the new man in? As I said before Klopp bought adult men. United buy assholes for too long and then lads who are OK at first turn.

Hjolund seems OK and could flourish with stability. Garnacho is another who could blossom. Mainoo is already ahead of schedule. Dalot has improved.

But there will need a new centre back, left back, centre mids...

Armagh18 · May 25, 2024, 12:33:17 AM

Antony tries but he just has very little ability tbh. Maguire and McT have slightly more ability and good lads that can do a job but just not top players. Hojlund, Garnacho, Mainoo and Diallo should be the basis of the squad next year. Martinez and Shaw are as good as anyone on their day but just cant stay fit.

Armagh18 · May 25, 2024, 03:41:44 PM

Ten Hag in.

RedHand88 · May 25, 2024, 03:42:58 PM

Have to admit.

That was some goal.

gallsman · May 25, 2024, 03:44:44 PM

That was outstanding.

jcpen · May 25, 2024, 04:56:33 PM

Deserved win to be fair.
Hope those Man U fans on here that said they wished they had lost to Coventry are happy

Be harsh to sack Ten Hag now.

Crap... Thursday night football

Congrats to the Utd fans on here. Made City look ordinary. Nice finish to your season, after a lot of pain.

I presume that means they are in Europa League now? Probably could have done without that.

Ah, the group stages can be easy. Players now a days want to been seen in Europe rather than hid away in their domestic leagues.
