[@utdforever9236]

I think the solution to this man utd mess is to fire Ten Hag NOW!!! because he has lost the dressing room, rarely uses youth, a rigid coach who uses the same sytem every time despite failure & doesn't like squad rotation, then on temporary basis bring a good vibes coach to pamper these prima donnas they might finish top 6 then in summer bring a no nonsense coach like De Zerbi & carry out a PROPER CLEAR OUT. One good thing with De Zerbi is he can do wonders with youth and average players....united won't require superstar signings he will work with talents like Openda, Jonathan Davids, Ivan Toney, Vlahovic, Brahim Diaz, Dyabala 12million release clause ,Sergej Milenkovic, Ousmane Diomande, amadou onana; amadou haidara from Leipzig who happens to be a man utd fan, Johan bakayoko, zubimendi, Latin America talent, replace Rashford with mitoma, Neco Williams or Leao etc

[@RandomVideosFirst]

its funny because I saw a similar video you did for ETH exactly 2 years ago waxing lyrical about him and from some fans and pundits saying hes the one. Whats different about De zerbi ?........... he will follow the same pattern as ETH, Jose and LVG. United need to just stick with one manager (and back him) and stop this cycle of hiring and sacking a managers (ETH has been to 3 finals in 2 seasons winning one and could win another domestic cup) then bringing a new ones that has to work with the previous managers players , who then will need to assess them and bring his own in and will take a year at least to get. up and running.

[@AtlantisFootball]

Yes it’s called changing your mind and admitting your wrong. You need to get off fan channels. People pretend they are right 100% of the time but it’s never the case. It’s nothing to do with previous managers. The issues are now and they are tactical. Better managers improve the team and players as a whole. Right now De Zerbi is a significantly better manager tactically and fits what United need. This whole “it’s just a cycle” is just nonsense rhetoric. So we just keep a tactically inept manager? Who is that better than replacing him and moving on

[@KubesC37]

Whilst I do agree with the tactical side of the video, I personally haven’t been convinced with De Zerbi as a headcoach just yet, per se. He may be a good tactician but there’s much more to be dealt with at united than just tactics. (PS :I’m not saying with 100% certainty that Ten Hag’s the man as well) 1- How will he manage the scrutiny and the press? How will he deal with the toxic atmosphere surrounding the club when the results aren’t coming? How will he deal with the Fans and board members who are expecting short term/immediate results? Transfers can be a double edged sword as it can make or break the season, free or not. (Look at Amrabat for example). 2- How will he deal with the player power based system in the current dressing room, with leaks left and right. How will he deal with players with the ego of a God but the performance of a championship player. He can’t just sack the toxic roots as it has slowly spread onto the players in the dressing room and if he were to proceed forward with that decision, he will turn the dressing room, media and the fans against him from the get go and we will hear story leak left and right. 3- How will he deal with the off field issues of the players, whilst having to deal with exposure that it’s caused? 4- Will he manage to overcome the pressure and bounce back from each loss? A 3-0 loss against Arsenal for example isn’t gonna go under the radar at Utd. City and Liverpool are some of the best team in the world currently but even they come nowhere near Utd when it comes to scrutiny after a rough spell. I don’t think that changing the manager is the long term solution for the club atm. Ragnick’s “open heart surgery” is still very relevant to this team despite the signings. There’s so much more to be dealt with internally at the club. Once those issues have been dealt with, then the club will have to decide on whether the project that Ten Hag is presenting is moving towards their vision and if not, then we should part way with Ten Hag. But until then, fixing the mentality and the discipline of the players and changing the core structure of the way the club operates will have a far better impact than sacking the manager.

[@AtlantisFootball]

Right but you could literally say that for any manager baring maybe Ancelotti klopp and pep who are coming into Man Utd. You need to make an assessment as to whether these managers can make the next step

[@KubesC37]

@@AtlantisFootball But we also wouldn’t be giving any oncoming manager a fair chance at succeeding and making that extra step if we don’t take care of the core problems.

A question Atlantis, do you think de zerbi can handle the pressure, man management, player power, toxicity . I honestly don't. He's fantastic tactically but this is man utd we need to get a manager that can transform uniteds mentality I don't think rdz can do that

[@egwuasivictor3481]

I understand why anyone would want RDZ ,tactically he's a genius,but one thing we must understand is that a big part of this is the team Brighton have above him which is what ineos are trying to do,now ten hag looked like the next big thing at ajax also because of the team above him so i think it's worth giving him at least another season to try and turn things around even though he's been unconvincing this season, although even with that being said I wouldn't detest the idea of de zerbi and i completely agree with your transfer strategy

I don't get what the fuss is all about with this De Zerbi guy. What has he achieved in football as a manager? Ukrainian super cup? Gimme a break. He hasn't proven himself in a big club. If United sign him as a manager, two years from now fans will be demanding "De Zerbi out!" and the cycle will repeat.

[@mattiekirksey1390]

It's not a managerial issue, as Roy Keane said some years ago. we have got players at the club who are not just good enough so even if you sack the manager but still have same players. it will just be a matter of time till we want a new manager again after the players fail to improve perfomances

[@AtlantisFootball]

It 100% is a manager issue. The issue is the tactical set up. The players are good enough it’s just a cop out. You can see game to game that we get dominated because of our pressing and possession set ups. Roy Keane always blames the players

It's understandable when he's coaching a smaller team where there aren't elite problem solvers so you kinda have to do it for them but in top football elite players will definitely want more freedom and it could be a problem going forward. Take Nigealsman time at Bayern for example, he said he had to adapt in his second season and give the players more freedom

Ten hag ain't a bad manager at all especially if he previously had a proper structure above him but the problem I have with him is that he isn't obsessed with control and possession like De Zerbi and other top managers who happen to be managers of the top teams in EPL. Nowadays, with the likes of city, Liverpool and arsenal established, inorder to succeed you need to control games like they do. United's defenders have been exposed on several occasions and labelled incompetent more compared to Brighton's defenders but Brighton is actually below united. If united controlled and dominated games you'd actually see players like Maguire and lindelof look decent. All united is doing at the moment is play chaos ball

You did a similar video when ETH was appointed manager and you admit you were wrong...what shows you're not wrong about De Zerbi? Before ETH, he looked like a great option to change United, almosy exactly as De Zerbi looks now. What shows De Zerbi wont end up exactly like Ten Hag?

[@AtlantisFootball]

Because I’ve explained it in my analysis. De Zerbi is a forward thinking manager who has already proved he can come up with tactical solutions to problems (such as playing through high pressure) as well as adjusting his system to a back 5 and inverting Lamptey vs Arsenal and Liverpool. When Ten Hag was appointed we hadn’t seen such a radical tactical change that came around 2022-2023 time, that was the mistake made when analysing ten Hag initially.

[@AtlantisFootball]

But we also did foresee him not being able to get the basics of tactical set up right and not even attempting to use a style similar to Ajax even though he has the players to do something similar even if it isn’t champions league semi final level

[@beingmeshach]

bro you forget de zebi came into a Brighton team that was already step up for him with the players they had. the Brighton team was already on the raise based on infrastructure/structure. when their manager left (porter) and they already had a plan in to bring in a manager that will fit their strategy. If De Zerbi was to come in he’s coming into a club that’s still not sit up for success on every level. NO Culture, Infrastructure, Structure, Strategy Etc. this club still doesn’t have a TD, SD yet and all the things a modern football club needs to succeed.

That’s not true at all. The system was not set up for him. Brighton were using a completely different system before De Zerbi

[@beingmeshach]

@@AtlantisFootball ok let’s say that they didn’t but i know for sure they were on the raise. look bro i’m not disagreeing with you at all on your points you have made over the last few months. i agree with a lot of what you have to say but i’m afraid of bringing in another manager that won’t succeed. de zerbi is doing great a brighton but man i’ll be terrified of him ruining his résumé by coming to a club that’s been failing for years. this club, its players, its managers have been consistently Inconsistent. good season next season bad season 😂. This club isn’t set up for anyone to SUCCEED AND THATS THE FACTS! bro just admit it. look i want de zerbi or whoever that’s next to revolutionize man utd and take us beyond what we can’t imagine. not just a short term fix

[@AlexDArch]

Totally agree with the free transfers part. It is dumb to spend 30M on a squad player. I may add RABIOT who could be Mainoo 's partner in the starting 11 for free or a put pressure to the starting 6s for free. Very sceptical on ETH as well as RDZ. ETH's tactics are weird but maybe he deserves a year under proper back office and drama less scenery. As for RDZ, what happens when the opponents don' t press you. What's the plan then? It seems to be very good tactician when he plays as an underdog but he would need to reinvent his football if he goes to a top 6 club.

[@ronin7883]

⁠ @AtlantisFootball Stop spreading this negativity towards the manager, TenHag is a tactically strong manager you just can't blame ONLY him. It has a lot to do with management - Not giving him what he wants in the summer to hire a medical team that was sacked by Arsenal last season for underperforming!!. TenHag took a squad that finished one of the worst seasons under Ole and Ragnik (58 points) to the Top 3(75 points) with 2 Cup finals!!. As a manager, he has to deal with Dramas (CR7, Sancho) to unify a squad. Further, he has to deal with Brain Dead management who can't do transfers (sell or Buy). Meanwhile, De Zerbi can't make a well-run club like Brighton compete for the top 6 positions!!. Just like previous managers mentioned this club is set up to fail unless there's proper management that supports and backs the manager at all costs. If Liverpool and Arsenal can stick with their manager for 2-3 to get results we surely can stick with Ten Hag for at least 2 more seasons!!. One of the positive things in recent times was how he overhauled the academy and rebuilt it to play his tactics. Our academy is performing so well under his guidance. Ex - U18 Northern League and League Cup champions!!. One last thing we all should remember is if we are asking to sack the manager at least we should give him the squad he wants and still if he can't produce results then we could think about sacking!!. Otherwise, it's gonna be a repetition!!

[@xCestLaVie1]

EtH made silly rules to unsettle Ronaldo. He ostracized De Gea. Sancho was a winger who could pass, although lazy could you say he is worse than rashford? Ten Hag made the team like this, not anyone else. It will take a lot to rebuild because they're unwilling to move away from their core. They spent a fortune replacing players with mediocre players. The shuffling of players made no sense at all.

[@Az0rAh4i]

I don't think De Zerbi is better tactitian than Ten Hag. This year, Brighton is as inconsistent as MU. Just that our expectation for that club is much lower 💁💁

[@AtlantisFootball]

De Zerbi is 100% a better tactician than Ten Hag. Watch Brighton’s full matches full matches and you’ll see the clear difference. De Zerbi is a top manager, he’s issue at Brighton is individual ability. United’s issue is ten hag’s tactical ability.

⁠​⁠@@AtlantisFootballmust’ve triggered a one year extension Lat time I checked he was free agent. Then I think Guido Rodriguez would be a good signing to replace Casemiro/Carrick short term. He has 3 years left in tank. Isn’t world class but he is high PL quality. For free that’s a bargain. Imagine Bruno and Mount as 10/8 role Mainoo and Ceballos can play anywhere in midfield both 8 Guido and Adli as 6s That is a good midfield with nice depth (not ready to win PL or UCL) that would cost around 40 mil pounds. The midfield could be constructed in different ways as many of them are versitile. Probably the best value upgrades we can get. Allows to splash cash on a LB and a RW.

I personally feel like tactics are overrated. Not to say that they are NOT important-quite the contrary. But ultimately, a managers ability to get players to buy into his philosophy is gonna matter more than the philosophy itself.

De Zerbi’s style of football is one of the best around. We want to see a coherent tactical set up that can challenge for titles

[@kaiwistoski9858]

ETH is perfectly competent tactically, he’s shown it at Ajax, and he’s shown it here too, being willing to adapt his style to the squad. Pundits act like small tactical tweaks can solve these huge issues, when really tactics are only a tiny part of the game compared to player quality and psychology. ETH cannot play possession football with this squad it is not possible. De Zerbi would not be able to make uniteds defenders suddenly comfortable enough on ball to play out from the back the way Brighton do, just like Ten Hag couldn’t make them play like Ajax. He would adapt his tactics to fit the squad as he slowly builds the team to increase its quality (just like Ten Hag is doing), but y’all would give him no time, say oh they’re not playing the style i want them to play, and come for his throat before he can build anything. Then look star eyed at the new hot manager a year from now. The cycle continues. Give an actual reason with evidence as to why De Zerbi is better tactically than Ten Hag. Building a squad takes time

[@AtlantisFootball]

No he’s not perfectly competent, he’s shown he’s not at Man Utd making basic tactical errors. He can play possession football he just doesn’t know how to implement it. That isn’t even the biggest issue, the biggest issue is he can’t set up a compact defensive unit

[@AtlantisFootball]

Mate I have given plenty of evidence. De Zerbi is clearly a better tactician than ten Hag just watch both managers tactical set ups

[@AtlantisFootball]

De Zerbi 100% can do what he’s doing at Brighton with this United squad

[@kaiwistoski9858]

@@AtlantisFootball it’s true that they don’t play a compact defensive unit. But why do you think that’s happening is it just because ETH thinks it’s amazing to leave huge spaces in the middle of the pitch and that every single pundit and fan can see it but not him? I don’t think so. United have 2 options on defence, they can actively press and leave gaps or they can drop back, park the bus, and remain compact. Teams like Liverpool are able to press high while maintaining compactness because their defenders are mobile enough to get back on transition. If United tried to play the same with with Varane, Maguire, Lindelof, they would get absolutely smoked on the break and have no legs left by the time halftime rolls around. This is why when united press they leave gaps in the middle, the defenders have to stay farther back. It is a personnel issue. You can criticize Ten Hag for not adopting a more defensive approach, sitting back and playing on the counter. I think it is better to get into the habit of playing positively, but there’s definitely a debate there.

[@AtlantisFootball]

@@kaiwistoski9858 no it’s because he can’t set up a functioning press unit with the central midfielders getting dragged apart due to him using a man to man press. They absolutely don’t have two options at all, that’s not how tactical set up works. He absolutely can press high if he wants, he needs the midfield line to narrower. It’s not just park the bus or press high you know 🤣
