no idea why they sacked Ten Haag, absolutely chronic mismanagement, he is the third most successful manager in win ratio since Ferguson!

Because they are deluded that they are always just one new manager and transfer splurge away from a title challenge

I’ve said a few times that I’m not a fan of these ‘system’ managers. More often than not they either A: Work for a bit then get worked out or B: Only work in very specific circumstances and club profiles.

I think it’s fine for managers to have a preferred style like Ferguson, or Guardiola - as long as they do evolve their systems to stop it being predictable. On the other hand you have the likes of Ancelotti who’s very pragmatic and gets results.

Broadly my feeling is even if they want to build to a specific system, then they do need to be pragmatic to a degree and actually win games - and just whining about not having the players to play their system or blindly playing it getting loss after loss is being a bad manager to me

Hearing dad say “I sometimes hate my kids” in a press conference has to be fun…

Agree with this. The likes of Ange and Amorim don’t seem to feel it is their responsibility to find a way to win matches. They just end up sulking because no one else understands their genius.

You can see how the press are trying to get a rise out of him and soundbites like “I hate my players” are all they choose as a lede, also English isn’t his first language either so what he’s trying to say is unlikely “ I actually despise this team”.

He seems incredibly inflexible.

Sounds like sAF?

Won't quit, leave, get sacked until just before we play them...when ever that is

Man Utd told to replace Ruben Amorim with Sean Dyche for two reasons

Ruben Amorim is under increasing pressure at Manchester United after his side were knocked out of the Carabao Cup by Grimsby on Wednesday, with Sean Dyche tipped to replace him

Personally I think Saint Sam would do a better job

We had this with Martinez and also with Dyche.

It's not a coincidence that two of our better managers this decade are Ancelotti and Moyes who will both adjust the plan to the opposition.
