The decision to sack Ten Hag isn't outrageous even if you disagree with it, the timing of this is. Feel sorry for Erik ten Hag, the day before the cup final.

[@BabsW]

They had to start contacting replacement managers before they missed out on who they wanted, so that's how it leaked. I do think they should've announced his sacking months ago though.

[@lukee7442]

this is so ridiculous to me. i remember ratcliffe saying during his interview that it was good how arteta was given time despite finishing 8th in his first 2 seasons with a full squad. now here we are with ten hag getting sacked after finishing 8th in the worst season we’ve ever seen in terms of injuries. wtf is ineos doing

@@Shadowespeon17 i see no reason why united wouldn’t finish top 4 next season given that we were in 2nd for a large stretch of ten hag’s first season and finished in 3rd when we had a full squad. liverpool will be in transition, villa seem to have lost their form, chelsea are gonna be a disaster, so i think ten hag with no injuries could’ve easily secured top 4 next season

[@thisisdevin111]

Was someone holding a 🔫 to his head? I’ve seen managers get sacked on transfer flops alone. Did he improve the team? Absolutely not. It just got way worse and someone needs to fix his mess and get the team to playing somewhat better so half of the fans don’t die from heart attacks

[@HonouHana]

He improved the youth, pulled performances out of players who some including myself gave up on. Most defensive combinations, joint 1st for most injuries, with 10+ years of no change infrastructurally. Then we blame after his SECOND season? You need to recall how long it took Fergie to get a tune out of us. It was messed up then and we're telling uninformed fans that we should be up there. We've slacked more than any others thanks to our HoDs. Our history calls for greatness; our present calls for complete rebuild but WITH Ten Hag in for at least one more season.

[@akashredarmy]

Tomorrow we all gonna see which players really wants to play for Ten Hag 😢

[@fagbemideabiodun4939]

[@nervoussystemnut]

I think you are assuming far too much. McKenna is a good manager but unproven in the premier league plus he is only 1 manager from a short list. We have spoken to him but that does not mean this leak is accurate. Agents leak this sort of stuff about players all of the time to get their players a batter deal, managers also have agents. There could be many possibilities but the mental gymnastics you are putting yourself though is only torturing yourself. At the end of the day it could go either way, but let’s not assume anything, we have a cup final to win

[@wolfswinkel8906]

There the ones that will down tools first. Why should they win some measly cup if its all going to be in vain? Lisandro and Onana especially love ten Hag and they're playing in critical positions. I dare say they will leave with ten Hag after the loss.

[@Qammar_GGMU]

I am just laughing at this point. Didn't Van Gaal warned Ten Hag about taking United's Job? (the real irony is Van Gaal was also sacked after winning the FA Cup) Life works in a Circle, today I believe it completely.

[@tfc91420]

It's the leaks that are embarrassing. Sacking LvG was the right thing to do at the time (we had our most successful post SAF spell after firing him) but doing it less than 24 hours after the final is disrespectful af. Same with ETH. I think sacking him is not a bad choice but having it leaked out like this is very poor taste.

Obviously trying to get him a better job.. This steinberg is some guy taking a punt. Nothing to lose.

It's ridiculous if United want to sack Ten Hag. With all the issues he's had on and off the pitch, the injury problems, the incompetence of the Director, CEO, the owners and dealing with players' egos, the same players who have betrayed 3-4 managers that have come before and the media that haven been against Ten Hag even before he got the job. The media have never liked Ten Hag and they have been preying on him for a long time. It's also ridiculous considering the options that have been put forward to replace him aren't really good enough. Tuchel won nothing with Dortmund, didn't really dominate Ligue 1 with PSG and apart from the UCL, he failed to compete in the Premier League with Chelsea and failed with Bayern despite taking over a side that was dominating the Bundesliga, he only won it last season because Dortmund bottled it and failed to win it this season, getting dominated by Leverkusen and failed in the Champions League last season when Bayern were winning all the UCL games under Nagelsmann and only conceding 2 goals but then bottled it under Tuchel. Kieran McKenna being considered for the post is ridiculous. Yes, McKenna has done a wonderful job at Ipwich but that's a totally different level from United. Remember Kompany last season dominated the Championship with Burnley but has failed in the Premier League. The players at United have big egos and if they didn't respect established managers like Van Gaal, Mourinho or a club legend like Solksjaer & a Champions League finalist like Ten Hag, what makes people think that they would respect a manager that has never even manager in the top leagues!!

Strange how much the argument that ten Hag will succeed similar to Arteta with time has taken hold. Think all the stats from this season suggest we are very lucky to have finished 8th and the style ten Hag is playing is way too dependent on individual players as we have seen with Casemiro's dropoff this season and the Bruno injury at end of season. Ten Hag has said himself this season that the deep defence and high press in attack is the tactic he is trying to teach so the idea that he will play different style when everyone is fit is crazy. Also this argument that "the same players are throwing another manager under the bus" is crazy to me too. Most of the guys used this season have either been brought in or promoted by ten Hag or are clearly onside with him like Dalot, Bruno, McTominay & Maguire. Think it's the right move to replace him ultimately even if it's upset plenty of fans and got plenty of criticism in media.

IF we definitely don’t think this has come from Ineos, and I’d agree it seems extremely unlikely then it MUST come from the McKenna camp or Chav$ki (& therefore via the McKenna camp!)

Firing Ten Hag is not a bad decision tbh. I sympathize with him about these leaks, and with the injuries he's had to deal with but the style of play hasn't been sustainable and he has not adapted the way the team plays to get results with the injuries. We couldn't just keep getting ran over by teams with much worse quality than us with the suicidal midfield instead of trying to stop the bleeding over the course of the season. The bad thing is these leaks the day before a final, it's a repeat of LvG, who also deservedly got sacked. But it's just an unprofessional and unempathetic way to handle things. INEOS was always going to go and get a manager of their choice. At the end of the day ETH is not their hiring, he was never their man for the job. Injuries yes but managers at even worse clubs than ours have been sacked for less. Hell even Ole was sacked for less than the performances ETH has given us this season. Injuries do not excuse blowing a 3-0 lead to fucking Coventry, they do not excuse being battered by Bournemouth 0-3 AT HOME, 0-4 to Palace..

I am so sad. Deflated. My team carries on with toxic behaviour. Whatever any one thinks of ten hag this behaviour is the Best in CRASS It’s not just the “sacking” but the way it has been done. Ratcliffe said all managers fail in our structure and then they do the same as glazers and scapegoat the manager. I believe ten hag is our best option and that he has been hung out to dry, this season. He’s made mistakes but any manager would in his situation. Fergie - who I love - had bad seasons, made transfer mistakes - Bebe, djemba djemba, Bellion, veronwho he never got the best out off, failure to keep Pogba, , and tactical mistakes- I am old enough to directly remember these. Does pep or klopp or emery routinely have to deal with off field issues such as Ronaldo, greenwood sancho Rashford? Do they have a hostile media from the start? Do these managers have to deal with incompetence of murtagh and Arnold and glazers and their inability to move on players such as Maguire and mctominay which would have enabled us to buy players that ten hag needed like Kim min Jae? Do these managers have incompetent medical and fitness departments? the 10 million pay off could have been used to get a loan deal that could have made a difference to this season.

This was done to mess with ETH and the players heads before the final

[@user-xy1id3hb8z]

Well I wont buy the Guardian again.

[@derek009]

Been saying it... Ineos are no different from Glazers. Ratcliffe is their long lost brother. The club will be ran same as always

[@hama.fernandes]

And to whom ? A championship manager ! he's levels below ten hag,what ten hag is done with ajax in Netherlands and europe is far bigger,his style there was far more impressive,plus he showed what could be done and more last season. I'm utterly disappointed by ineos 👎

[@famousnation5505]

This is a wrong decision for me sacking ten hag when there is less better coachs out there will be a disaster for man united

[@rennieblackman9567]

How could ETH get the job done with all these injuries?

[@user-w29-vfwh59vd]

I believe it's an unfortunate timing with the manager rotations going on right now. I think Ineos have been playing a double game with ETH and us fans. They told ETH they were going to keep him and they started planning with him for next season. That's why ETH was so confident about that in pressers. At the same time Ineos had a plan B in place to replace ETH mid season in Jan next year in case he didn't shown signs of improvement. That's why Ineos never issued a statement that they're backing ETH. But then everything changed in the last couple of weeks with managers all around Europe leaving their clubs (not just Chelsea). Suddenly Ineos found themselves having to act fast to not miss out on a potential replacement for ETH that they had planned for Jan. I'm sad for ETH. This season was very tough for him with all the injuries hampering the team's performance. If they do sack him we'll again start from scratch, players will have to adapt to another coach again. It's a shitty situation. Ineos are being ruthless. The game they are playing is dirty and disrespectful if all that is true. I just hope we get a good coach next season and start winning again. It's tiring seeing that shitty cycle of sacking managers every 2 seasons happening again.

[@richyclubsport5155]

You were there when they said they'd keep him? Didn't think so

[@Gloria-Stits]

If this is true, Manchester United and Ineos have no honour, no nothing left !!!!!

[@louisaraiza314]

Ineos are Glazers-lite. It’s disgraceful! We’re no better than Chelsea right now. If the manager has to take responsibility for everything, then this is 100% on Ineos. This is their show now, for good or for bad, deal with it people. Ineos wants a puppet for the next head coach. We’ll no longer hire managers.

[@thisisdevin111]

Can we get a refund on Eth’s transfers?

[@Selambehere]

Could this be Chelsea doing It on purpose to disrupt our chance of winning and therefore kicking them Out of EL? I mean this could have financial consequences for Chelsea..? Just saying.

[@1989maihan]

Ffs we need a committee of club supporters who act as an advisory board to tell these idiots how to make the right decisions. It’s become a circus show

[@raksingh76]

As an old United fan, I’ll be happy for ETH if he gets the sack. He deserves a better club than what United are at this moment in time.

[@asr7943]

TBH i do not want ETH to be sacked.. I know he gonna do better under the new management... he deserves last chance.. Imagine the injuries he had to deal with... Cmon... INEOS FIRST WRONG DECISION if that's true

[@GordyB666]

The United mind games for the FA cup final are genius. Tactical masterstroke against City.

[@marcusmclean4965]

🤣 Why is everyone getting mad they didn't pick ETH so he might not be what they are looking for. Plus he hasn't showed alot in the last 6 months for them to say yes to keeping him.

[@RC1ROM30]

Why is Chelsea dictating INEOS's strategy??? Even if they where waiting to the end of the cup final this news broke before Steinberg

[@user-fx2mo3le1e]

INEOS are not fools. Sir Jim is utterly competent. This looks, feels, and smells like a media feeding frenzy driven by a Chelsea base that is churned up by their chaos.

[@alexfoote8518]

I’m honestly done with this club

The timing of throwing out this rumour /fact will definitely have a ripple effect on the game from UTD point of view.

[@MrJagger112]

F*cked by the players and now by the board 😔

[@nkundafreeman9717]

Sacking ETH, United will be repeating the same mistake that was made when Louis Van Gaal was sacked.

[@giorgiob8464]

United have made the same mistakes for 19 years and counting.

[@onotualiyuohindase155]

The players Ten Hag signed have been injury stricken for the majority of the season and now they want to sack him. Disgrace. Ineos is like the Glazers. Terrible 😡

[@garethdavies6552]

Guy's and Gals. I've completely Run out of the Fight to say Eth IN or out. Sad days my fellow Devils... Shocking Behaviour by OUR CLUB.

[@user-tb5eu5cm4m]

Ten Hag, the sacrificial lamb, to cover up the board's failures at our club. In truth, taking on the United job was always backing a losing horse, given the utter shitshow of our owners.

[@christaylor9039]

INEOS and Ratcliffe are the new face of the Glazers
