Then you've got Alonso to Liverpool and Pep retiring. Crazy days.
Maybe not - I was just highlighting there will probably be quite a few managerial changes this year.
How safe do you think Ten Hag is? I would have said he'd be fine but suspect Ratcliffe has a minimum expectation of him that's higher than the Glazers had. Reckon 5th could be enough - and Villa will probably implode to ease that - but below that and I suspect you can add his name to the list.
They've got enough to deal with at the moment, there's no need for that.
I think Ratcliffe/INEOS know the main problem lies behind the scenes in the hierarchy/structure. They'll be focused on sorting that out first.
Once that's in place then the spotlight falls on the manager IF we're underperforming.
Chopping and changing managers without sorting out everything else has failed by and large.
It's where all the old ten pin bowling shoes have gone.
When they come in, they have to change.
Carragher collects and sprays the insides at the end.
Whilst I agree with pretty much all of that what would genuinely concern me with Ten Hag is the number of his own signings he's fallen out with or failed to get the best out of. I hope for your sakes he is kept away from all tranfers dealings from now on as he seems to be focusing on buying players good enough to win the Erevidise. I think there's good signs in some of his actual tactics though.
