I really like Ten Hag's Ajax but I wasn't (still aren't) convinced how he'll be away from the Ajax environment, the players with the technical ability already pre-programmed in them. There is a genuine chance he bombs like Frank de Boer, or he could be the real deal. I guess we're about to find out.Ironically my choice would have been Rangnick as DOF and Ten Hag as coach.
They will get it right eventually. We shall see on Ten Hag.
We can all feel you pulling for him.....
God he was passive that night. He reminded me of someone and I genuinely could not think who...then it came to me.......I really like Ten Hag's Ajax but I wasn't (still aren't) convinced how he'll be away from the Ajax environment, the players with the technical ability already pre-programmed in them.

Just never forget who the Daddy is........................
BBC Sport just stated that Ten Hag wants to bring in Steve McLaren as part of his coaching team.
Hmm.
Useful that he also speaks Dutch

The love-in with the media in the UK is just crazy, looking at the BBC football website they got half a dozen articles on him and Man U also a podcast and he hasn't even come to the UK yet.
They're put an article with the headline suggesting every team will now fear Ten Hag and Man U
Poor Pablo trying to learn English and you're just confusing his grammar.Tbf to him it's hard to resist speaking in the accent of the person you are talking to.
I remember playing footy with a Brazilian immigrant lad back in the day. With all the other boys, you'd speak straightforward English. With the Brazilian lad, it was more like: "Hey Pablo, why you no pass me ball? I make run, but you no pass. This no good"
I'm confused....Amazing young manager and exactly what we needed in N1. A project manager who will build a young & energetic squad. Plus Utd always spend loads of money so he'll get the players he wants.
Meanwhile we've got the Grumpy One who will be off the moment we don't qualify for the CL. The Short Term fix. He exists to win trophies, he's not getting that here.
