Poll Who's next to go? (Sack race)

[Modo]

Who do you think will get sacked next?

 

[binomial]

Voted Hodgson by mistake, wanted to select someone else and say Poch.

Kompany close behind, Forest would be silly to get rid of Cooper. Where else are they expected to be?

Ten hag. When Ratcliffe gets in

 

[Modo]

We can mind as well lock this thread.
Ten Haag ftw.

 

[Mojo]

Wonder who they'll go for when / if they get rid of Ten Haag?

 

[Fabio]

If there's no sacking til next week's it'll be ten hag

Red cafe are talking Di Zerbi, Conte and Xabi (seriously!)

I told some Man I supporting friends that Xavi is the best young manager in the game right now. Doubt they'll go for him, doubt he'll take the job and I seriously doubt that he'll leave Leverkusen mid season.

 

[tomasjj]

poisoned chalice now united
not that many will go for it

Make way from Brodgers

 

[dee]

I’d say Man U is no longer a prime desirable job. The squad is poor and fractious and the fans expect miracles

 

[Mojo]

More pertinent question then I suppose would be "Who'd want to take the job?"

 

[rurikbird]

Ten Hag winning manager of the month and getting sacked within a couple of weeks will make an excellent trivia question some day

 

[jan]

Can see Hansi Flick doing another Rangnick there

 

[Dreambeliever]

Ole as interim. Imagine Moyes again!

 

[Gerry_A_Trick]

There's probably only a couple of managers that could actually sort that club out, and they wouldn't go, nor would they be given the time to do it. I don't care if Ten Hag stays or goes, they won't be any better if he does.

They've made some really poor choices, mostly the former players, but they've had some fairly experienced and really promising managers there too. It's delightful how shit they've become in the last decade.

 

[darkstarexodus]

Given how shit they are, I actually wouldn't mind if they ruined De Zerbi's career as it stands.

Watching Conte run them into the ground might be fun too, even if they win a domestic cup along the way.

Christmas has lost a bit of shine for me as that club has made it Xmas almost every year over the last 10 years.

 

[rurikbird]

I voted Pochettino, BTW. 5 months in he seems to be no closer to figuring out how to fashion anything resembling a team out of his young charges. Boehli doesn't seem like a particularly patient man.

 

[Judge Jules]

Fabrizio Romano's apparently saying the Mancs held an emergency board meeting yesterday after the game and want Zidane in to replace ten Hag.

Ha like they have a board! Also doubt they'll do anything without Ratcliffe's input

 

[Modo]

Zidane doesn't speak English though, does he?
Getting him mid season, what's the point?
Is there anything left to salvage?

Yep, and this is where the facts spoil a good story. There genuinely is NO point sacking Ten Hags now. The squad is more of an issue than him. The best thing they can do now is hide the cheque book and let this season slide. Martial is out of contract at the end of the season and they can spend the next 6 months lining up as many deals as possible to shift the shit during the summer. Then new manager appointment, cheque book out and start afresh

 

[Modo]

Yep that would be the smart move. I mean I can't see any obvious candidate for the Man U job right now.
Give whoever they want in charge time to assess the team and when he joins, he'll know who to keep and who to sell.

On a different note, how many players were still starters from when Klopp took over to the year we won the league?
Two players? Firmino and Henderson?
Trent and Gomez were still kids.

Just trying to get a sense of the type of rebuild Man U needs to do.

Think we still had Mignolet as backup?

 

[dee]

Ahh no We sold him at the start of the season

 

[Modo]

Think we still had Mignolet as backup?

Yeah and few more like Lallana, Lovren, Milner Origi etc but they weren't regular starters any more.

 

[dee]

Lovren?
