Ten Hags the man for me, I'm not sure why/if there is hysteria around him, optimism is what I'm sensing. As has already been said he probably needs 3 or 4 excellent transfer windows and patience from the fans. Put it this way if he gets the money and time that OGS got at the very least we will be playing better football than we have been over the last 9 years. I'm fed up of being board shitless watching Utd. I could put up with Pep's style of ticky tacka football if we were winning as much as City but we've been no where near either for a long time.
Pundits coming out today saying he should get us competing for the big trophies within 2 years, absolutely not possible, the club is broken from top to bottom, bringing one man in and his coaching staff isn't going to turn around every part of the club over night. As I've said before it's the first of many steps that need to be taken.
The recruiting has been terrible for many years, we've spent over £1 billion since 2013, we may as well have thrown it on a bonfire. The head scout has already gone.
Makes me lough when I read comments that it's a risk from Man Utd getting him. For a start any manager would be a risk with the state the clubs in. It's a bigger risk for Ten Hag, he had big clubs sniffing around him all over Europe and you certainly have to say he's the first coach we've chosen who's career is on the up and not on the way down. Comparing him to Van Gaal is wrong, he was in his prime in the 1990's, Jose the 00's and the rest aren't comparable at all. Ten Hag still has it all to prove and he's a proper coach that play's high pressing attacking football, so he will need to get rid of most the squad to do that which will take at least 2 seasons.
There will be bad results next season early on and I can't wait for the media to go in on him early, especially all these out of touch pundits that wanted Poch and can't wait to say I told you so. Because the fan base is fed up of these players and owners as much as they were of Ole, Ten Hag will be given time by the fans.
Surely it can't get any worse!
