Never said I was happy, but you’re fucking bonkers if you think José was the answer or that he had anything else to offer this club. Nobody said he was, I wanted him gone before he left. Better than what we're fucking putting up with now though. Disagree. But we can leave it at that.

Call it rewriting history on Jose if you want but we’ve had 2 full-time managers since him and they have both looked totally out of their depth.
The football hasn’t improved and we’ve become easier to beat/play against since he left.

Better than what we're fucking putting up with now though. Tbf let's not pretend we didn't put up with this shit back then aswell mate. I'm not ready to jump on Ten Hag because although hes been helping himself imo there are bigger problems. He needs to drop Rashford for a start. He's been fucking awful this season. Shoots when he should pass, pass when he should shoot, his decision making is dreadful. I defended him a lot last season but looks likes hes pulled the wool over a lot of people's eyes. We can replace Ten Hag tomorrow, this time next year we'll be back at the same crossroads with another manager. Lack of effort, heart, determination, call it want you will. They're all guilty of it.

Been thinking about this for a while and I would like to formally apologise to Jose Mourinho. The best manager we’ve had since Sir Alex and it’s not even close. Ten Hag is no better than Ole. First game in a while that I simply didn't even plan to watch (all things considered), but this is a big statement.

You could always see what the plan was with him too. It wasn’t pretty but he had the tactical nouse to get results. ETH is massively lacking in ideas. Rarely looks like we have a gameplan and subs are basically always like for like.

It's sucking the life out of most fans now.

The Ole/ETH part is slightly incendiary but not all that sure it’s too wide of the mark.

Ten Hag being a shite coach is getting lost in the Glazer shit.
There, I've said it.

Will disagree on him being a shite coach but I do feel he's highlighting certain flaws by not learning from mistakes. Was all well and good last season but this year he's supposed to build on it, we're going backwards again atm.

And i must point out that I’m not expecting us to win leagues and compete with City under this ownership but we’re just about managing to compete with the likes of Sheff Utd and Burnley in matches so far this season. It’s incredible how far off we look.

Can all say he's not been fully backed and all that bollocks, players been forced on him etc. Whether or not he wanted them, he's got multiple champions league winners in that squad, Bruno looks like one of the best players in the world in the last week, every time he plays for Portugal. He's out of his depth, not one of us would've picked the exact team he's picked in any of our last 5 matches given what was available

He's spent enough money to get this squad playing better than it is. Injuries haven't helped either but can't use that as an excuse for some of the performances. This is what I mean by learning from mistakes. He needs to wake up and change things before ots too late because most of these players won't give a shit. They'll hide behind another managers sacking. Drop half of them if need be.

Yeah hard to make excuses for Erik when we've spent almost £400m on the players that he wanted and selected. Maybe we haven't always been able to buy top quality because we have too many positions we are trying to fill and not enough funds and not enough pulling power and we've been limited to players that Erik is familiar with as we don't have a proper transfer chief. But with the backing he's had and his coaching abilities you would at least expect us to be playing better football and not struggling to beat crap teams every week.
