Bigger, better offers will be made to him in the coming months. He’s strongly linked with replacing Ole which could be as early as next week if they lose to Liverpool tomorrow.

Yes, Ten Hag could maybe get other jobs offers in the summer, but by then we’d have a manager and he might not get that chance again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 I know the manager betting markets are very volatile but Ten Hag has went from 66/1 on Friday to 50/1 last night to 20/1 this morning. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough , it’s not beyond the possibility of him wanting to try , pie in the sky but it’s genuinely who I want . His vision and meticulous detail in training is phenomenal.

clintdempsey Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 The thing about our squad being mediocre and facilities being limited to say the least is the greatest reason for turning to a manager with a clear and progressive philosophy. Realistically most of the squad won’t be here in 18 months. I’d far prefer a manager that tries to turn us into an attacking team instead of going for a “safe pair of hands”. Rafa would probably be the safest pair of hands we could turn to right now but I’m honestly not sure I’d want to revisit that. There’s always the risk that everything he built with the fans last time out will be tarnished by the new expectations. I’d probably go for an exciting name such as Fonseca/Ten Hag or maybe even Jaissle or Edin Terzic. A manager that can grow along with the club and help mold it together with a DOF/Sporting Director. Whoever they end up hiring will be backed to the hilts from January onwards IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dream is Xavi, but he'll be destined for Barcelona if he does well so probably a bit pointless. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrRaspberryJam Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 Whys Fonseca managed so many clubs already? He doesn't seem to last very long. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeordieDazzler Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 I'm still hoping for Fonseca, the apprenticeship that Portuguese managers get is elite and despite his experience he is still relatively young. Bring him in with and let him grow with the club, would be amazing to have a long term manager (that we don't all despise). From the Shaktar stuff he seems to have strong ideas on how things can be run and the facilities revamp can go hand in hand with this. I think Lampard/Rooney would be absolute suicide tbh, not seen enough from either and the inevitable fallout when they are sacked would be the same as Bruce. Gerrard is slightly better but wouldn't want him for similar reasons. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Porto was the only place he failed, then went to Braga and won them their first trophy in 50 years. He's worked his way up from the lower decisions and majority of moves he's made have been steps up. Roma had a poor squad and changed ownership halfway through his tenure. There was an article posted where Roma fans shared their opinions on his after he left and were largely positive. Nearly all said he'd made the team very reliable at beating teams they were expected too.
