    None of our Premier League rivals, to date have made a significant signing. Moreover United have messed up because of excessive past spending, and have had to settle the future of the manager. So of course things haven't happened yet or been publicised yet. The biggest test Ineos will have is the impatience of we fans. It's ludicrous to suggest that we need to be competing with Real Madrid's signings. We need to get people out, get promising players in and rebuild over a couple of years. It's annoying, because we're constantly in this position, but there it is.

    Phil, the club is broke. Where is all the money coming from for all these top level transfers you speak of? They’re not an attractive proposition for top players in any case, not at the moment.

It will take years to turn the club round and return it to where it needs to be. Patience.

    The issue is that they need to remove ETH's veto, they also want to make it easier to remove him with harder KPI's, in order to do that they need him to agree to a new adjusted contract, otherwise they simply could have extended his contract. ETH still has one year left, he knows they cant afford to sack him, so he has no reason to sign a new contract, lose his Veto and make it easier to be sacked unless the contract is at least three years and much more money.

Once that is done then u add players that transform the team.

      Exactly. Increments. If Ineos get this summer right they can recruit and bin out the rubbish players over the next 3 transfer windows. It cannot be done over a summer UNLESS the fanbase is ok with another year of dross until the team clicks. That's the reality of our situation. We can moan that it will take a few more seasons but look at the teams that appointed the contes and mourinhos of the world. They get a couple trophies and it burns down after 2 seasons because they force everything out of that team, it cannot perform at that level for more than a couple of years. Or you build slowly and accept that you will have a few mediocre seasons until the manager makes all the mistakes he needs to learn the job and the team gels. Then it's about fine-tuning. We jumped the gun with van Gaal, he needed more time to set a standard, he's doing more or less what ETH is trying to do now. Mourinho bought for thw moment, older players he could really do battle with, which is why he loved tall players, then OGS poor SOB didn't know what he was building but it wasn't a team. Yes they did ok during lockdown but I remember he said he wanted to play out from the back them bought AWB and then he 'needed more legs in the midfiel'(he was painful to listen to). Our strategy was beyonf scattergun, and with 6 signings eth is supposed to have fixed all this in 2 seasons with no winter window and now no money? Even if the antony and mount fees were still with us they's only be 3 players max. That's not exactly transformative plus klopp and pep have PLENTY of misses. Now eth isn't in charge he can focus on coaching and ineos can bring their intellect and experience to bear.

  • @Boylo2492
    @Boylo2492 3 місяці тому

    The narrative that Ten Hag wants to be involved in recruitment has never been substantiated with any evidence.
    The fact remains, the monst successful team Ten Hag has ever built, was at Ajax, wjere he was a coach with next to no input into signings, sales etc. It worked. So this narrative needs to stop, and needs to stop being pushed as a reason why ETH was getting pushed out the door. To be honest, there again has been nothing of substance put forward that Ineos had made their mind up, and anyone credible said Tuchel, our #1 target to replace ETH, did not pass the recruitment process, at a very early stage. It seems Ineos decided they wanted to keep Ten Hag on, very much of their own violition.

    If I was Ineos, when considering what has happened re the manager, I wouldn't give ETH a new contract now.
    If we start the season and our poor form continues, how will we sack him if he sstill has 3 yrs left on his deal?
    Perform, and get rewarded. But first he has to perform. He won 2 cups, but the league table doesn't lie.

      He was as close to ninth as he was to 4th. He was 3 points off 6th. You need to chill because although the table doesn't lie it can look worse than it is. The great klopp finished 5th with 6 more points than eth had this season last season. This is 7 years into the Klopp project. Get some perspective. Just saying We're Man United over and over won't make us buy better players. Maybe the standards police can take a holiday so eth can build a squad that is balanced.

      @@keithdesira9294 I think they think that if he doesn't have that extension the squas will continue to question him and his methods and will not commit fully. They've downed tools before. Not saying it's the right move but I think they want continuity. Remember when Ratclifde said Arsenal were patient with Arteta? I think they want someone medium to long term to help get the important parts of the project going: proper academy integration into the first team, discipline and a stronger mentality. That cannot happen if they think can undermine the coach and he'll just get the sack until the next one figures it out. The problem isn't about contracts and all that, they can write them so they ARE performance based. The issue is Ineos have looked into why eth failes last season and realized even though eth probably did make some mistakes he was simply reacting to a club in disarray. It's easg to look at the table and goal difference and simply throw your hands up and say he's a bald fraud. Clearly though Ineos did their research and realized eth's brain didn't fall out of his head or he forgot how to coach ball. Clearly they realized there were bigger forces at work that THEY could solve so he could do his job. Eth has really impressed me with how he's carried himself this season. I think he has the right footballing intellect, class and perfect temperment to be United manager. Tuchel would've been a disaster. He brought dier to bayern, he wanted to bring in rudiger to United, another guy on big money getting close to 30. Basically their worst nightmare. Hate him or love him we should get behind him as United fans. There really aren't a lot of top managers available out there right now.

      Good. Rashford has let us down ever since his bff Jadon Sammich got kicked out for calling the manager a liar. You can leave with him. Eth is in charge and he's going to instill discipline. That's what winners do. Rashford has more interviews crying about social media than goals. He's paid a lot of money. If he expects his nonsense to be rewarded by the fanbase OR his dumb interviews are going to change minds he's sniffing twix. Also...it might be opposition fans trolling him. So he can do a million interviews because it's probably racist opposition shtheads. He'd have better luck asking elon to ban his name from the app. And as to what eth said; he should know, he saw him not try all season.

    The major transformative signings may not be this summer unfortunately. Our current level along with PSR restrictions would make it impossible to bring that type of player in and address all positions needed. I think selling players that don't fit the profile INEOs want and raising the floor level of the squad with players that can is first step. Hopefully next summer then we could go for players such as Neves who can really take us forward and to the next level. It's a 3 year plan, we need to be patient

      Realistically it should be Rashford. The who £35m available, limited by PSR nonsense has been debunked by several football accountants/ financial experts.
      Regardless, to help a reset there needs to be 1 or 2 big sacrificial lambs. Rashford and Casemiro should be sold. Rashford is pure profit. If you get £65 - 70m for him, 30-35 for Casemiro and move Sancho and Greenwood on, you're in a good spot. I don't have faith more than 2 of those mentioned get moved on.
