What is embarrassing about using all the facts at your disposal to make a decision about a complex situation?

Yah well we ain't ever seeing that cb pairing ever again and Martinez is a crock

_________


We were always going to need a replacement for Varane and a bit early to be writing off martinez
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The decision to fire him would be based on the season just gone when we did have Varane. Next season we hope for a replacement from our new DoF.
Licha was injured because someone fell on his leg

Nothing embarrassing about changing your mind, and it will always be after the last game

And after Varane and Licha we went to Harry and Lindeolof, and jade yo finish with casemiro and Evans
Onana took time to settle,but all that in front of him surely didn't help.
Shaw out as well. Rashford off form.
Greenwood, Sancho and Ronaldo to deal with.
Has he made mistakes? You betcha, which manager doesn't.
None of the three you mentioned are sure to be better.
Next season, with a little luck on the injury front we could finish much higher and with more youth.

Finally people say all teams get injuries, of course they do, but it depends on the numbers and importance.
It's said by ETH out posters to gloss over how bad it's been.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
There has to be an acceptance that some folk want him to stay, some to leave, and some swither between the two.

There is no wrong or right view, but whilst I might disagree with someone's view (in this case yours), it doesn't mean I don't understand it. By the same token, I don't think you should just dismiss someone's else's view as glossing over how bad the injuries have been.

There will be varying degrees as to how much you think the manager has responsibility and the players have responsibility, but for me, considering everything, the buck does ultimately stop with the manager, and it's not very scientific, but it doesn't feel right under him and I don't believe it will

I disagree Robb. The return of our CBs showed what we have been missing.
Our two teenagers, who both scored, show that he can be trusted with the potential from the academy.
City weren't poor, we made them look poor.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

You wanted Ten Hag out the other day. Make your mind up.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm entitled to change mind,and it was before the final not after.
Sticking to the wrong opinion isn't great is it.

It’s not like die hard ETH out folk are changing their mind though… just people who were undecided

posted on 26/5/24

I think if we cast our minds back to the palace game, Burnley game, Chelsea game, Fulham game, Forest game, I could go on, most people were adamant Erik was toast this summer, it wasn’t just the defeats, but the manner of them, a decent last couple of results and a cup final win and a few people have had a change of heart it seems

We played out of our skin yesterday to win that cup, how many times this season have we seen that level of performance?

Completely hit the nail on the head. Of course having key personnel played a factor, but the general approach, non-kamikaze midfield, that has less to do with injuries and we have not shown that in 75% plus of games. Yesterday wa almost like a blip to the norm, allowing for the cirumstances

Robbsie, of all people, should not be calling out people for flip flopping.

I’ll put it another way then - making your decision based on 1 game - is ridiculous

I'm ambivalent about Erik staying. If the penny has finally dropped regarding the midfield though then I'd be happy for him to stay. Next season is Year One IMO.

posted on 26/5/24

I’ve always sat on the fence on this one… but what made me more ETH in was not so much the performance or the win but the way the players celebrated with and showed a camaraderie with ETH in the final game at OT and at Wembley. I think a lot of these players believe in him

----------------------------------------------------------------------
If it takes that long to see something so obvious, it's not great though is it? And has the penny actually dropped?
Next season is only year one if it is someone else

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Call me cynical, but i think the players were just generally happy and celebrating. Don't get me wrong, i don't think any of them hate him or anything like that, but do they really warm to him or truly believe in him. General performances suggest not.
To me, it was just a natural reaction to winning

Positions and opinions change.

There are no prizes awarded for being right or wrong.

Cup finals are perfect opportunities for players who don’t usually make the effort required to turn up and get their medals. If they were that committed against Bournemouth at home and West Ham away maybe Ten Hag wouldn’t be sweating on his job

And the clear show of support at old Trafford?

Personally I'm weary of the sacking culture at this club and would have no problem giving ETH the benefit of the doubt and letting him have another bash at it next season.

We've suffered as a fan base through this horrible season and somehow ended up with an FA cup and europa league football.

It has to have been a huge learning experience for Ten Hag. Let's see if we see the benefits of it next season

Was the team that played those two teams the same as yesterday's?

Does it need to be? The managers job is to get any combination of players in the squad who are out on the pitch to approach the game with the right attitude and drive and tactical instruction. If he has to rely on a very specific set of 11 players in his squad to succeed then he’s not the guy for us as in 2024 injuries to key players are happening more than ever and it’s very much a squad game.

As you are comparing , then yes it needs to be the same.
Do you honestly belief having Lindelof and Evans doesn't weaken the team. Plus the loss of Shaw and AWB.
The loss of form by Casimiro.
Think how much better our forward line would have looked with Greenwood and Sancho.
Martial to rotate with Rasmus.
He's had a bloody difficult time and come out with yesterday.

I don't disagree with your post but... Sancho? He's absolute crap based on his united career
You do come out with some waffle sometimes
Martial too.... Come on now.
The rest I agree with.

Because he showed at Chelsea he could deal with an injury crisis and start to make the side look competent and with an exciting style of football. I don’t think any of us can see signs of that happening with another year of HagBall
