Last season he performed very well and everyone was happy with him. Let him complete two seasons before we can say something about him being fired. He brought champions league game to old Trafford and he won manager of the month of November which means he is doing something good, but not to the expectations of the fans. Let him finish this season. January transfer window will soon be open, let him buy players and do his magic.

You definitely know that the players above are mostly Erik Ten Hag choice and when they show inconsistency it means someone is with Ten Hag. In fact the more often we pay attention the bigger the question mark becomes whether Erik Ten Hag has the capacity as a suitable coach or not for Man United. The figure of the coach determines which direction the club goes whatever its appearance it all depends on the coach who drives the club and its players. Do we completely blame the players for not returning to their best performance or is it because the coaches are less competent in developing each player abilities?

I agree that Manchester United has all the quality players they want and maybe if it was in the right hands the results would be better. We know that if from the start Manchester United wanted to bring in one of the great coaches who had experience in Europe's highest competition then the result would be that they would become a strong team and even scary for other EPL teams.

But unfortunately, since the era of Sir Alex Ferguson ended, Manchester United management was not ready to bring in this coach and instead they just tried out a coach who was clearly very inadequate in carrying all the existing burdens and this is what happened. This team seems to be trying to look for new challenges by bringing in a coach whose playing mission and vision are not yet clear and that will only damage the existing legacy. I think it won't be long before they change coaches again if Erik ten Hag fails to bring Manchester United to a top 4 finish this season.

I don’t know how much time Ten Hag would seemingly deserve to prove himself at the club. He wasn’t picked as the coach yesterday and he has had in my opinion, enough time to study and understand the capabilities of all his players on the team. Apparently enough time to know and go after players he thought was best to achieve his goals as a manager for the club.
I’m not rooting for his removal as the coach, but I think he has had enough time on the job for his plans to start to show some general improvement in the team.

Guy a good coach can come into a club and implement his own playing pattern. What is important is that the coach should buy the kind of players he thinks can execute his type of game play. Guardiola brought that to Manchester City. Postcogloue is doing it at Tottenham.

Have you forgotten that Manchester United actually does not lack good players, Rashford, Bruno, Garnacho, Casemiro, Martinez, Varane, Eriksen, Shaw, Lindelof, Amabat, Antony and even Maguire. In my opinion, all of them are still in the category of quality players with one condition: IN THE HANDS OF THE RIGHT COACH AND KNOWING HOW TO UTILIZE PLAYERS SKILLS. What about Erik Ten Hag, who has clearly forced himself with responsibilities that he is not actually able to bear. As a result, all the abilities of the Manchester United players above became invisible on the field. In the end, the audience and United fans saw the final result, it didn't matter what process Ten Hag went through because that was his job.  

I have said it already that united needs a coach that can adapt to the way the club plays their football like every team have a way they play that suits the club standard so if united can get such a coach then they will make a lot of difference and their form will change. It's just quite unfortunate that since Sir Alex Ferguson exit Manchester united hasn't been able to lift a major trophy apart from 2017 when Jose Mourinho helped the club win the EUFA Europa league trophy.

It is true that rotating players is not as simple as we think. Because sometimes the factor of who will be the opponent must also be considered. Like when you play against a strong team, it's still the core team that has to continue playing. But when facing a weak team, you can start entering the second tier players gradually and resting the core players gradually. But the problem is in terms of the performance of each second tier player who is sometimes too different from the core players in terms of performance and mentality on the field. And what is even more difficult is when many players are injured which makes it quite difficult for a coach to rotate players. Sometimes betting becomes more difficult because each match becomes more difficult to predict the outcome.

The team is uneven; there are numerous traits that are not working out for the club, leaving Erik Ten Hag befuddled, and this has hampered the club's achievements in the EPL and other pertinent tournaments. The Manchester United we see today is not the same as the one we watched during Sir Alex Ferguson's encumbrance The Red Devils' performance is sporadic, which is affecting for the club and the reputation they have created over the years. Is it Erik Ten Hag's accountability that his fresh signings fail to measure up to expectations? They were probably all at their peak when they were scouted by United, but owing to fatigue and inconsistent performance, they all faded.

It's been almost a week since we were all too busy discussing the bad things about Ten Hag and Man United while we forgot important things about the EPL competition this season to fight for the top of the standings to become more competitive when the popular teams experienced problems with consistency while the middle class teams were surprisingly able to improve their performance until can get into the top 5 in the standings and it looks like the competition for the top 5 in the standings will be very tight from Spurs to Liverpool who are currently still trying to get the highest place trying to get the EPL title.
starting from Spurs starting the season very well and being more consistent but in the end this team had to lose control and fall to 5th place and was followed by Arsenal who tried consistently to reach the top of the standings but unfortunately had the same fate as Man City, being broken by Aston Villa who can currently be a challenger at the top of the standings and currently Liverpool is still victorious at the top of the standings due to Arsenal defeat yesterday.

position in the top 5 is currently still not safe and there will be many changes in position, but this will be a very interesting season in the EPL to win the title at the end of this season, but I have thoughts that in the future Man City will return to win the top of the standings, but let's see next week whether these top teams will be worse or will return to their original position because Man City and Arsenal will focus on the UCL match and Liverpool will focus on the UEL and Aston Villa will compete in the european conference league. for now, Spurs should take advantage of this opportunity because this team doesn't have any other matches scheduled so their physical strength is better.

I can't think my head straight what has been happening to Erik Ten Hag but I can say for a fact that Onana has conceded more goals halfway through the Premier League than he did in the whole of Inter or is this actually a conclusion to say that Inter was just having a great season in Seria A and Erik was scammed by that performance and bought him instead because I don't really any part of Onana that is that spectacular for Manchester United, the players and the managers has failed that club so badly that they don't have any reputation in Europe again.

Between them and Chelsea, I'm not sure who to say they have declined badly but I think Chelsea has been the same they were right from when Graham Potter was sacked and replaced by Lampard down to Pochentino, they have been the same but I think Manchester United are about to enter the same trend of declination because this was how Chelsea were performing poorly until it becomes a linear failure they finding difficult to adjust in the table, they have remained below 10th in the table more than 6 weeks and yet no significant change has occured.

Erik Ten Hag inherited a weak squad when he came in as Manchester United coach. Yes he hasn't gotten everything right, but I think he brought some level of improvement to Manchester United. Yes this season they are not doing very good. Though he had made some serious mistakes which I think have put him in the right corner right now which is letting De Gea go and bringing Onana and having issues with Sancho. Let him finish the season if no improvement then he can go after the season ends.

Honestly Erik ten Hag has gotten enough time to turn things around for good at Man Utd, he had so far signed 16 players loan and permanent players yet the club hasn't achieve their great status due to their inconsistency in the team performance, majority of his new signings had flopped, the likes of Onana, Antony, Mason Mount, Lisandro Martínez and Tyrell Malacia hadn't perform as expected despite huge sign on paid to secure their services except Casimero, Eriksen and Rasmus Højlund who had proven their worth but injury problems had reduced their impact in the team, Rashford, Martial had lost form, while Sancho who ought have help the team is not in the good book of Erik ten Hag, I think the manager had all the time at his disposal to up the team game or performance yet not yielding any  positive results.

You're right, the schedule will greatly affect the team's performance, because with a very short recovery time it will make them easily lose concentration in the game. Because one of the things that must be maintained to be able to create high concentration is to have good physical condition too.
This must be really considered by teams that have a busy schedule, they must have the best possible scenario to be able to maintain the fitness of their players to stay in good condition. Indeed, they have a special team to maintain the physical condition of their players, but they are also human beings who are likely to need a longer recovery time.
One solution to that is to rotate, but again it's not an easy thing, because a team must have an even squad so that the rotation they do runs well.

The inconsistencies, purposeless and his lack of style is the sole reason why fans are calling for his sack. I thought his arrival meant something different but he hasn’t been able to replicate half of what he did at Ajax. Ten Hag looks and sounds like a man who doesn’t know what to expect from this Manchester United team from one week to the next, which is baffling when you consider he has been in the job for 18 months and spent £400million on new players.
Sometimes I ask myself, What is the identity of his team? It is sad that the fans and the owners have expected so much from him this season and he’s been unable to make his team show better results.
And today, he’ll face one of the toughest test where he’ll face a make-or-break Champions League game against Bayern Munich at Old Trafford. And the worst thing about this game is that, even if Manchester United manage to beat Bayern Munich, they must rely on Copenhagen and Galatasaray drawing to go through to the knockout stage.

It's just that having matches that are close together is actually quite detrimental for teams that have a large number of injured players. Like Tottenham and Newcastle, which are clubs that currently have quite a large number of injured players. Their coach must have difficulty maintaining the stability of the team's performance in close match schedules. Because in a busy schedule you have to rotate games more often to ensure that the team's performance doesn't suddenly decline in the next match. And that's why many players are needed who can be used as options in every match. But for clubs that are currently hit by a storm of injuries, they will have difficulty finding this option. But a coach's expertise will also be tested in this case. And I think the current Tottenham and Newcastle coaches will really be tested. Newcastle have an even busier schedule at the moment.

Tottenham has played a fantastic game. However, I believe that the players who have returned from injury have done so with good play. If this continues, I don't think Tottenham will be able to defeat Newcastle, as they are a very formidable opponent this season. Richarlison's two goals since his return demonstrate that the players who sustained their injuries are the team's best players, and if they are all healthy, Tottenham will be able to maintain a strong standing in the league.


In my opinion, Chelsea doesn't need to sign any more players in order for them to perform well. The team has been performing poorly, so I don't think adding more players in January will improve things. Many players have already left Chelsea and are now playing well for other teams. The only thing the team needs to do, in my opinion, is train the group and provide the coach with good advice because I don't think Pochettino can manage the team on his own.

Every coach certainly needs time to adapt to all the players in the main squad, so firing Ten Hag is not the right time because there is still a chance for him to improve everything, at least to bring Manchester United to the top four in the EPL this season. Even though there doesn't seem to be much hope of qualifying for the next round in the UCL, I think Ten Hag has to make any changes to improve it so it's not too bad.

Learning from last season Manchester United managed to be in the top four to get a UCL ticket this season even though in the end they failed at least they learned a lot from their experience of facing opponents in the UCL group this season with the strongest team like Munich, at least the main squad team can learn to be solid on the field and play even better.

Ten Hag deserves more time at Manchester United to prove himself. He came in last season and finished in the top 4. He won silverware for the club. Yes he bought players he thought was good but it didn't turn out the way he expected, not all market turn out well. He should be given more time to show his working.

City, Arenal or Liverpool are buying stars to compete for the championship, and Manchester United have decided to buy a lot of young players and want to win, but it will be difficult.

This happened because of ten Hag, but not only because of him, if the owners allowed him to do this, then they also believed that it was possible. So the problem is in both the coach and the players, everything needs to be changed, MU need a coach who will understand that to win they need an experienced team, and need players who can win in such a strong championship.
