Future is not looking good for Ten Hag, particularly after meeting Ratcliffe Today.
INEOS looking to do a complete overhaul of transfer operations and they wouldn't be trying to bring in Ashworth & Mitchell if they were going to give ETH lots of power.
The problem is Erik Ten Hag is very reluctant to give up power when it comes to transfers according to @RobDawsonESPN
With Ten Hag previously saying this "I set requirements in advance about how I want to work" "If they aren't granted, I won't do it. I am ultimately responsible and accountable for the results. I don't want to be the sole ruler, I stand for cooperation, but control in transfers is a condition for me."
INEOS will not allow Ten Hag to have this power and if he refuses then he is gone, with some reports even suggesting they have already contacted Graham Potter😬
I assume Ten Hag will get to the end of the season, as implementing structural changes is seen as first priority.
But did hear info on INEOS wanting to bring in Dan Ashworth & Co to create a vison of how they want #MUFC to play and then hire a head coach to do that.
Hope Erik turns it around, but it is looking worrying.
Pele: “If he was playing with me, I would have scored so many more."
Zinedine Zidane: “My toughest opponent? Scholes of Manchester. He is the complete midfielder."
Luis Figo: “I’m star-struck when I see Paul Scholes because you never see him. On the pitch you can’t catch him. Off the pitch he disappear.”
Xavi: “In the last 15 to 20 years the best central midfielder that I have seen – the most complete – is Scholes. I have spoken with Xabi Alonso about this many times. Scholes is a spectacular player who has everything. He can play the final pass, he can score, he is strong, he never gets knocked off the ball and he doesn’t give possession away. If he had been Spanish then maybe he would have been valued more."
Patrick Vieira: “The player in the Premiership I admire most? Easy – Scholes."
Lionel Messi: “At La Masia his name was mentioned a lot. He’s a teacher."
Roy Keane: “An amazingly gifted player who remained an unaffected human being."
Laurent Blanc: “I tell anyone who asks me – Scholes is the best English player."
Pirlo: “The truly great English midfield player of the generation. Didn’t just play the game, he thought about the game. You could see every pass, every decision, was based on his intelligence and understanding."
Thierry Henry: “I can’t understand why Scholes has never won the player of the year award. He should have won it long ago. Maybe it’s because he doesn’t seek the limelight like some of the other ‘stars’."
Pep Guardiola: “Out of everyone at Manchester United, I would pick out Scholes, he is the best midfielder of his generation. I would had loved to play alongside him."
Cesc Fabregas: “He is the one whose level I aspire to. He is the best player in the Premier League."
Dimitar Berbatov: “Nobody else can play the way Paul Scholes does."
Sir Alex Ferguson: “I think Paul Scholes is the best player in England. He’s got the best skills, the best brain. No one can match him. There isn’t a player of his mould anywhere in the world. Paul is irreplaceable.”
Paul Scholes was the GOAT! 🐐
#MUFC ✅
Today, the Glazers will pocket £650 million for selling a 12.5% stake in the club, each earning over £100 million. Despite this windfall, they retain control, stand to profit even more, and won't reinvest a penny into the club. In contrast, Ratcliffe is set to inject additional funds into stadium development using his own money. The Glazers have yet to contribute any investment to Manchester United but have extracted over a billion pounds and counting. This represents a concerning level of greed, raising questions how anyone could have been happy with them staying and being facilitated by Jim. In essence He’s being used. The Glazers Win!
Man Utd fans know that with Varane they have a higher chance of winning the Premier League and Champions League than with the likes of Shaw and wan-Bissaka starting
But Man Utd fans don’t care about winning trophies, they care about the illusion of playing this "ten Hag system" that has never resulted in top trophies, EVER
Luke Shaw, Aaron wan-Bissaka, Bruno Fernandes, Marcus Rashford are all being added to "preferred XI's" and none of them have experience in winning major trophies
None of them can actually play the "progressive" football fans want to see either, they are counter attacking, hoof-ball, speed merchants that can barely control a ball, let alone play "fluid attacking football"
The players named above are actually the players that will hold Man Utd back, like they have been for the last 6+ years
@EGTVEgal @VinniKo9 The workers passports were taken, they weren't granted exit visas to leave Qatar and had worked many months without pay.. how would you describe this....?
🚨 Pep Guardiola on @ManUtd. “I have a feeling that United is coming. Finally, United is coming. I saw yesterday (against Sheriff) and Chelsea the first half. I thought I like what I see from United just now.” @sistoney67 🔴
After Manchester United’s awful start to the season, the focus has once again turned to the Glazers. This thread will look at some of the reasons why the club’s fans might be unhappy with their owners – from a financial perspective #MUFC
