Mazraoui is out requiring a procedure on his heart. I recall him having serious complications with myocarditis after contracting Covid while at Bayern and so this seemingly a consequence of that.

Fell sorry for any player in this situation. Covid related, though the anti vaxxers will link it to the jab.

[mattyhurst]

Kind of the opposite here though. Though look at the ghouls on Baldock mentions.

Because no one’s ever had an accident in a Swimming pool.

[GermanRed]

Hope Mazraoui recovers fast from his heart condition so that he can get his heart broken twice a week on the pitch.

[mattyhurst]

Going watch the women’s team and see if they are better than the men’s.

Perhaps Ten Haag is there to see if there is any players he can bring in?

Radcliffe is probably there to see what he can cut.

Edit: They look as bad as the men.

[mattyhurst]

Ah this is where their spawning has gone.

Edit: Spurs women are also like the men.

ETH stays and the job does not go to Tuchel. He is right up there on the fuckwit meter but unfortunately would improve them.

Sure but Tuchel wouldn’t last longer than 3 years and would succeed only in bringing in yet more square pegs for his successor. So long as they flit from one idea to another without a coherent strategy they will continue to flounder - Tuchel would just perpetuate this; it’s a young capable manager being backed that we want to avoid.

Even if they fluke themselves into getting a young manager , knowing themselves, they’ll get another guy like ETH.

And because ETH is given the best part of 4 years , the new you won’t nearly get the same time.

Pretty much every bit of commentary/punditry I hear about them contains a variant of the following premise…

‘It’s/we’re/they’re Manchester United.’

It still hasn’t sunk in. They’re still grappling in a lot of ways with the denial phase.

Makes me horny just thinking about it…I reckon they’re a chance of spending some part of this season in the relegation zone.

If they spend even an afternoon in 18-19th, I’m shouting the whole forum some pot noodles.

Huge Man Utd security scare as dressing room bugged & Erik Ten Hag recorded

I love that Chompers was MotM for Portugal last night.

Championship level player here.

Fans want a sugar hit of immediate results with a big name. They tried the young supposed capable manager in ETH and they are now screaming. On the other hand they crave another Mourinho for instant results during a quick stint. That’s Tuchel.

Agree though that a young long term manager is ideal but there is more risk. We may have got it right with Slot. Hope they don’t.

Young? He’s only 2 years younger than ancient Jürgen. Tuchel is 3 years younger than him.

OK youngish - change it to inexperienced/rookie in the real big leagues then. But you know what I mean….

[rupzzz]

Want experience…theres a long list of suitable candidates.

[mattyhurst]

Like I’d love to know what they are trying to find out.

Can’t be tactical information as that’s clearly missing from them.

[SBYM]

I had entirely forgotten Fat Sam managed Palace.

@Rooster

But you know what I mean….

Actually I didn’t, but yeah if you mean inexperienced…

I’m not quite sure how they dig themselves out of this, because it seems like they’re still trying to cling on to a “great man” philosophy, instead of building an organisation. But I’m not very clued-up on what goes on with them.

I think our situation works though because the system around the manager is structured well.

This.
We were fortunate with Klopp but also put in place a system that worked with him and delivered what he needed.

Something is clearly amiss at United (understatement) because you can argue that EtH has been given what he thinks he needs, but still isnt delivering.

I think you can point in all directions and find issues.
