The news and link up makes no sense, Do you know Erik Ten Hag has a better first season rate that Mikel Arteta and Josep Pep Guardiola during them first season? But fact is, Manchester United are so shortsighted about his potentials.
When you bring in these new coaches, you'll want to give them a season or two again to get things done but Erik Ten Hag has a good knowledge of the league and would be in his last year as manager for Manchester United. What's stopping Manchester United from backing him up with the necessary players for the job?

Life under the Glazers has never been easy, it'll be a big slap if they don't back him. Yes his project has gone well this season but they need not be daft and understand that, Most of Manchester United pillars in the club are Injured. Also, Erik Ten Hag needs to stopp using Marcus Rashford, get him and better player for Competition, he either stays or goes.

Nagelsmann, Zidane, Graham Potter and all these names shouldn't be considered. Not even Thomas Tuchel.

Nagelsmann is managing German nation team right now, isn't he? I do not think that he would be willing to leave that spot to go to United to be fair, he is going to be fine there for many years, you do not fire national team manager that easily, so they keep getting paid good bucks while checking out the scouting reports all day everyday, that's a perfect job for him. They do not play too many games neither, 10-15 games max, usually less, so he is getting paid a lot more per game right now, and rest of the time he is just working to improve himself.

All in all, I believe that he should be fine, I think it will definitely be something that will benefit him to stay there for a while longer. That's just my idea though, maybe I could be wrong.

I believe Arsenal can reach the top also because the point difference between Arsenal, Manchester city and Liverpool is nothing more than 3, of which there's just 12 matches left and I believe Liverpool has the toughest of matches to play prior to the end of season as compared to that of Arsenal or Manchester city.

 So there's still a chance Arsenal can win the league, but they have to really win all remaining matches and hope Manchester city and Liverpool get to loss a match respectively for them to be and finish on top.

I so much love how the season is going and how 3 teams are battling their way to the trophy, we still have a long season ahead so it is not certain if some of these teams can keep up but I believe as the league progresses we will have at least two teams fighting till the very end.

The three teams look strong at the moment and with the way it is going none of them is thinking of slowing down now so they would approach all matches with utmost seriousness. I also don’t believe Arsenal is up to the task to challenge Manchester City and Liverpool but with the current list of Liverpool’s injury have made me believe Arsenal more and i now think Liverpool might fall off for a while until the injured players are back.

If Arsenal should be the one team left to challenge City then i think Manchester City will still lift another trophy again because i am not convinced with Arsenal’s squad especially the fact that they don’t have a quality striker that will give them goals.

It's true what you said, football always offers quite fierce competition so we are interested in watching it or just betting on it. Especially when we talk about the English league. Even though the competition this season is not much different from previous seasons, the strength between the two teams can be said to be balanced, making the match even more interesting to watch. The match between The Citizens and The Reds in the future, of course this is a match that can determine the journey of both teams to the title. However, at the moment Man City is confused about dealing with the fitness of its main players, namely Erling Haaland and Phil Foden, and from several news pages that I read, it is reported that Foden will be absent from this match, while Erling Haaland can still be played. Likewise with the Liverpool team, where the coach is still worried because he sees some of the conditions of his players.

The EPL title race this season is having a very sweet format as we’re having 3 clubs on the run for this title and they’ve got similar point. Not just similar points, but also very close Goal Differences and these are factors in determining who wins the league. Well many persons aren’t real considering Arsenal as an option because of how the club slipped during the cause of last season. That’s one major reason why me also have this fear that they might not be able to keep up and maintain standard till around April/May.

 Arsenal have showcased impressive form this season, the consistent performance of Liverpool and Manchester City who have even got a better squad depth when compared to Arsenal’s has raised doubts about Arsenal’s title prospects. The fierce competition of the league and the formidable form of the other contenders contributes so immensely to the uncertainty surrounding Arsenal’s bid for the Premier League title. Arsenal were in a very better position last year but when it got around April, they started losing it till they were overthrown by Manchester City who maintain consistency from February till they got the league.

 Considering this, I think Liverpool are the only challenger to City as you can see how they play poorly in some games and manage to still get maximum 3 points and you can’t see this in Arsenal team. Arsenal have to maintain this winning streak else they’ll be considered as Aston Villa and Tottenham who were one time league contenders some time ago. Consistency is what’s key to success especially in a league like the EPL where we’ve got teams all fighting it out till the very last day.

If the difference in points is a measure of capacity to be champions  of course we cant exclude arsenal from the current championship competition, manchester City has a difference of 1 point from Liverpool and that isn't no different from Arsenal which only has a difference 2 points from liverpool so far.
I think Arsenal just need consistency in their game in the remaining matches and  hope that if Liverpool and Manchester City slip up in at least one of the matches they have, so that will give Arsenal the opportunity to  snatch liverpool and city position in top standing.
Consistent is a problem that often befalls Arsenal when the season ends and Arteta should be able to overcome this now to be able to make Arsenal champions and of course close all doubts from current football fans.

From season to season, Arsenal continues to be able to compete at the top of the standings and even last season Arsenal was quite surprising to many people because since the start of the season they were able to become a team that was quite consistent at the top of the standing, but unfortunately, arsenal collapsed towards the end of the season and in the end had to end  season in the runner up position, so far I see Arsenal performance in the league is quite good and they still have a big chance of becoming champions at the end of the season provided they are able to remain consistent.

Liverpool is still perform so damn good even without salah and some important players like TAA and nunez. I was so skeptical last weeks when i have heard that if salah was injured. Nunez was just getting another injury after salah which was making me feel even more skepticism with it.
Things are changing a lot after a good result achieved by liverpool without salah and nunez. It was changing my perspective if liverpool has improved a lot. It was not always dependent on salah and nunez. Time passed and liverpool won its first trophy after it has successfully beaten chelsea in the final of FA cup.

There were so many speculations regarding the possibility for liverpool to win quadruple trophies this season.

https://www.premierleague.com/news/3912582

The next trophies that must be secured by liverpool

EFL cup v
Europa league -
FA cup -
EPL -

There are three remaining trophies to bring liverpool to go to the quadruple winnings.

Mentioning an article published by EPL and it seems liverpool will be very close to the another trophy. This is the best way for liverpool to add more trophy. The chance to get multiple trohies will be far bigger since liverpool keep get perfect results in any competitions.
Liverpool will have ez upcoming fixtures in FA cup and EPL. The reds will have schedule to perform against soton and nottm forest. Liverpool will be winning against soton and nottm forest. Expect the club to go even far in FA cup and three points in EPL.

My bet for the next two matches will be liverpool. it's no brainer to bet other than it. It's obvious liverpool will be winning against those clubs.

For now we will only be able to speculate at a time when the very competitive PL title competition looks very difficult because the 3 clubs have almost the same performance and to be honest I don't doubt Arsenal's performance because Artera's troops have recently had a very big winning score and Liverpool too able to get consistent wins while Manchester city has the strongest talented players in the PL such as Haaland who is able to continue to score winning scores for Manchester city.
The difference in points is very thin, there are still changes in every match and this competition will continue until the end of the season and for me this season's PL looks more interesting than last season.

Seeing Arteta's seriousness at the moment, it is very convincing that this club is trying to get a title to make its dream come true when last season failed but overcoming the only obstacle it has to face is against Manchester City, while Pep Guardiola's club can always get rid of any club, even Liverpool can now threatened to be displaced by Manchester City.
After the remaining matches to come, only 5 matches remain and Arsenal or Manchester City are already in first place, it is certain that one of these clubs will get the PL title.

Have you seen the Luton v Manchester City match in the FA Cup? What an amazing match it was! 

It was so delightful to watch Haaland and De Bruyne play in this one. Both of them exploded by scoring 5 goals and making 4 assists in total. Manchester City really needed this kind of a performance because they had serious problems on scoring more than one goal in a match recently. While Haaland and De Bruyne are recovered the fans are surely expecting the team to be more effective.

There are less than 2 weeks left for the Liverpool v Manchester City match in the Premier League as well. This is like the most critical match for the championship. Which one is your favourite? 

Me too, i have reasonable answer to this. I meant arsenal was bottling the title last seasonw when it had more than 90% win rate in EPL and this time is even tougher compared to the last season. Arsenal had city as the only competitor for the club but this time is kinda different as there was one additional team who competed for the title too.
Liverpool is also making the situation even more difficult for arsenal and manchester city. So, the chances were being divided into the three clubs to get EPL trophy this seaosn. Salah will recover soon and he is still in the process to recover from his injury.



https://www.thisisanfield.com/2024/02/mohamed-salah-spotted-filming-new-advert-delivers-positive-injury-sign/

I give you a small update regarding the positive sign from salah regarding his injury, perhaps salah may be coming back again in the next weeks. I hope liverpool will have all of its key players play again in the upcoming games.

Naglessmann was still a candidate but the real target has not yet determined by manchester united. I will bring another news regarding transfer rumor.


The news is released five minutes ago and i think that makes sense to take simeone inzaghi as a potential replacement for ten hag. Inzaghi is very experienced coach and he was able giving interimlan very good achievements even with limited budget combined with the old talents owned by intermilan.
Im valuing inzaghi more than naglessmann in term of achievement in coaching football club. Intermilan is the strongest team in the serie a now. It will be so good to bring him to the old trafford.

I will named some names which have been linked to the manchester united. 1. Naglessman 2. Inzaghi 3. More to come soon.

I have heard that if manchester united will be determining the fate of ten hag in the club very soon. I hope everything will be going very well for manchester united Sir jim needs to fix this pathetic performance from manchester united. He needs to bring someone who can coach as good as ferguson in the previous decades.

If we are talking from both of names above and i prefer simeone inzaghi rather than naglessman.

Well Manchester United have been in a state of shambles and they’ve been in search of a savior. Yes a Savior who would help get the glory days back at this team as their cabinet were now getting old and rusty. They last won a title with Jose Mourinho which was the UEL where he achieved success with over half of the team injured and I feel this is one reason why Jose should be considered an European master class. Well after that the team went into extinction till the arrival of ETH.

 ETH's arrival at Old Trafford was met with mixed reactions across the club fans and football lovers. Some believed he’ll sure succeed while others felt it’ll still be the same old story for the club;  and his time kicked off at the club. He achieved the Carabao Cup in his first season and many applauded him and believed in his project and ideas. The board also trusted him and gave him the amount be requested to recruit players of his  choice to fit into his plan to get the glory days back at the club. Well things now grew from bad to worst and we started seeing the worst of this Manchester United side as we’ve never seen before as he performed so poorly at the start of the season.

 Now 2024 cAlendar year started and he uped his game and the team’s performance too grew stronger and now it was looking all bright till last weekend’s loss to Fulham, which showed us that this team has never improved. With all of these, I think ETH didn’t really do a great deal at this club rather it was just some trial and error methods and saving grace he’s been using to win matches. Letting him go will be one great deAl as Jose is very much on standby to achieve great deeds with these clubs as he’s achieved in time past and can still achieve. So I think the board should consider this and try to watch out.

Isn't the PL title challenge lovely to watch these days?    There is only a 2-point difference between the leader Liverpool and Arsenal in third place. There are still 12 more weeks though but I hope we can continue to see a thrilling race like this until the end. I just doubt Arsenal in this race. You know why.

They can really have a similar ending to last season which wouldn't be a big surprise. But hopefully Liverpool won't drop down from the race early thanks to Salah's recovery. Wouldn't it be nice to see a different champion? Manchester City shouldn't be able to turn it into a farmers league.

Brentford vs Ham team match will start tomorrow. In this match, West Ham team has more chances to win. If West Ham team does not win this match, they will not be able to maintain the position of the points table. The team that can win this match will advance by getting 3 points. Brentford  There are no strong players in the team while West Ham have experienced players in the team.

The vacancy has led to rumors that Nagelsmann will replace Erik ten Hag in the Manchester United coaching chair. Like the rumors linking Xabi Alonso with Liverpool.
We welcome any rumors directed at Manchester United's progress because it has been a long time since we won the Premier League.

Nagelsmann is a great coach and suitable if Manchester United management intends to replace Erik ten Hag.
Honestly, a short duration will not be able to change the situation 100%.

I also heard rumors that Sir Jim Ratcliffe is interested in signing Julian Nagelsmann as Man United's new coach to replace Ten Hag and it seems that Sir Jim Ratcliffe is dissatisfied with Ten Hag's recent performance. But, there is still no certainty whether the rumors will soon become a reality or just mere speculation. If we have to talk about speculation, there is a coach who could be a good choice to replace Ten Hag and has the potential to make Man United better, namely Xabi Alonso, and as far as I remember Man United was also interested in him.

Well, I am very radical on this issue with the MU, for me they have to change Ten Hag, he already has many opportunities, he has not led the team to win respectable tournaments and competitions, I don't know how he is still there, other coaches still need to be done More than Ten Hag they have Changed him because he is not efficient for their team , so MU since last season would have removed him from the team, now, I think that Mou is one of the best for this team and he would do very well because I would know how to take advantage of everything from Each of these players, and that is something we would see , of course this is my perception of this team, I used to follow the MU a lot in all its aspects but as I said before, they are no longer the red devils , they are no longer that for me, and that is thanks to the failed management of Ten Hag , some people I don't know why they have so much confidence in Ten Hag but Personally it is something that I don't understand.

I know that the MU wanted to sell the team and I don't know if they already lost their love for the team and do things well , I remember when CR7 uncovered the pot and started saying all the things that happened in the club, because it wasn't As they paint it, they have to improve a lot, because they have not been updated, the Facilities are very old and they have practically not put any love into it, so all these things influence, perhaps the players are not so motivated, they have a Bruno Fernandez, a great Garnacho and they still don't come out of the hole, is it disappointing ? Yes, but for two seasons now I have been saying that with GTen Hag things are not going to work anymore.


36-year-old manager the leading candidate to replace Erik ten Hag at Man Utd

Well, whoever it is, if it is him, I hope they do it as quickly as possible, because I think they are already reacting.

This club was always too dependent on a player. I could not even agree if you call that a club that was losing the game had a virtuoso performance. Manchester united was keeping to show another shitty performance. A club with very high valuation could not even win against fulham. It's disgraceful to see how fulham was scoring at the end of seaosn.
The second goal was pure onana's fault. I will not blame other player but onana's role was very important to block the shoot, but he could not do it. Some players kept play like shit. Rashford has been so wasteful as well. People were praising the club so much only after it was winning several games against mediocre clu.

The genuine test has not yet begun for united. There is a sense of anticipation among people as they wait to see whether United will pass the upcoming test or if they will end this season without even qualifying for UCL next season. it appears manchester united wasted another three points at home.

It's very pathetic to see that how onana has a very slow response. Im still wondering why this guy could play in the professional football. The story about intermilan's defenders were helping him to perform good was true. Onana was usually standing when the ball appears and missing it.
This guy was shit. There are two pathetic players in mancheter united and these players are joining in united caused by ten hag has no ability to recruit the good players. This is also the main reaosn for him to waste a lot of money to recruit nontalented players like mount and onana.

It is within our imagination to envision the potential match between our united team and formidable clubs such as Arsenal or even Manchester City. It is likely that United is referring to the time when they were defeated by Liverpool, who scored a total of seven goals.

For United, they've had good records from the beginning of their existence till 2seasons ago when they started experiencing gradual decline. Their coach switches has an effect on the team, they found it hard to secure a good coach that complements and will impact the team positively. And this has been on and on till this season when the situation got critical and United is literally nowhere to be found in the top 4 spot and they keep going behind in their struggle each passing week. Ten Hag is obviously not good for them currently as the team keeps slacking back and they do not stop looking confused on the pitch. All his implemented tactics and strategies aren't okay off well for him and it's safe to say that as the head of the team, he's got the greater part of the blame to bear. United needs a switch and not just any switch but a more reasonable switch that'll understand their condition and think innovatively without sentiments with the goal of team building and growth and implement new methods to combat their opponents. I don't know what the board is waiting for to realize the big error Ten Hag is to the team. The entire team has been infected with his virus and they need to be quarantined and looked after to return back to their usual self again. Sadly it may take a while but we hope it's soon.

 They lost at home to Fulham which is very much embarrassing because for one they're expected to outshine and outnumber their opponent considering the home advantage they had, even though Fulham on their own have been a tough team this season. Well, it's only sad that they experience this height of team leakage and breakage too. They just have to find a permanent solution to their issue. I must say that the issue is a general team predicament and they need to be set back to default mode. They currently are a very much predictable team though in terms of poor performance which is wrong and should be corrected and worked on. They've lost as much authority that they once possessed and gradually it's eating deep into the general area of the club which ought not to be so.
