The Manager cannot be the main problem whilst all those 4 issues under him were there before he became the manager. Fix all of those problems first before sacking the manager, don’t use him as a scapegoat for the organisation’s incompetence . Benny said that these players don’t train as hard the players has to be the main issue! They sacked Josè and Ole and 60% of them are still here, let’s get rid of the dead wood before even speaking about a manager that won trophies both hs seasons.
The amount of blame they put on the manager when they will sack him and get another one who will go through the same cycle, and not blame the club at the top is such a horrific take
SDS members coming in almost every episode, tells you just how well those guys are doing. We might actually see an episode next week titled " who is the best manager to replace ten hag", this is not a prediction, it's actually a spoiler
The real problem one; Other clubs have caught up and built good teams within well run, monied establishments and Man Utd don’t have everything their own way any more.
That guy at the end makes some sense. Communication is a very important topic. I also believe there is a communication barrier between ETH and the players. And likewise, between ETH and the media. Unlike Ane Slot @ Liverpool. The guy speaks better English than ETH and myself. Anyway, OVERLAP, let's STICK TO FOOTBALL.
Not that it changes a lot, but still worth mentioning that 5 out of the 11 starting against spurs are new to PL or have hardly had any games with the team (if you include Amad with 13 prior games, most as a sub). Additionally 4 of those 5 did not eve have a pre season with the club.
Sacking Erik Ten Hag is NOT going to change anything. Even if new manager comes in, the club will perform well for first 5 to 10 games but flopped after that. Yes, the meaning of insanity is doing the SAME thing again and again while expecting different results. But in changing managers, they ARE repeating the SAME cycle again and again. The SAME 3-Year cycle. First Season: Started Well Second Season: Underperformed Third Season: Sacked Fourth Season: Rinse And Repeat First To Third Seasons. That has been the Manchester United management's tested, tried and proven-to-fail model for the past 11 years since Sir Alex retired.
so where's the accountability of the players? In the Aston Villa game; the amount of poor touches, terrible passes which went no where, giving the ball away easy, lazy tracking back in defending, selfish shooting (e.g Garnacho shooting when there are 2 defenders in front of him and it gets easily blocked, he could have passed it off) - this is on the players.
@@SonnyK248 You've got to be joking right? The manager doesn't control and isn't responsible for poor touches, terrible passes, giving the ball away, lazy defending, selfish shooting etc. The manager sets up the team based on tactics, and players who are in-form. You can't be seriously telling me that if a player looses the ball and it leads to a goal, that it's ETH's fault? 😂 if I was your manager, and you decided to shoot and the ball goes far over the crossbar, is that my fault?
The owners are by far the biggest issue , not that inios isn't an improvement it is the board room that sets the tone and the culture. Liverpool had this issue under Parry and them Gillette and Hicks, they ruined the club and lost its identity. This is exactly what has happened to man utd since the Glaziers took ove, so until you get ownership that actually care about running a football club you won't be able to fix anything else.
It is 11 years since Ferguson left, this is the 7th manager. Still the manager is THE problem. The claimed exceptionalism of the pressure United face is nonsense. Don't compare United pressure with QPR, but with the teams currently competing for the title.
Totally agree ten hag is the main issue I don't agree that you can see his ideas on the pitch I think he's got no idea I still don't see any pattern of play the players look like strangers on the pitch I think ten hag is totally inept and needs to go
I think too many players think they have done their jobs when they get their contracts it's not about the football. If they had bonus or clauses in their contracts they would have an insensitive.
Honestly, i think they have left one big Key issue out here, that i would love to hear how it would have been rated. I would prolly have called it : Fans and History. Straight up i wanna say, yes i know Manu is one of the absolute biggest clubs in the world, and they have one of the biggest fanbases and are historically one of the most decorated clubs. And i get that because of this, there is a certain level of expectation to where they should be, both in terms of placement in the league and which of the international tournaments they play in. All that said, they just are not in those positions, and as an non united fan, i actually think, that based on how they play and the all issues that they have, and also recent history, they are pretty much exactly where i would currently expect em to be. I think the manu fans are very demanding, to the point of insanity, its like they completely dismiss the fact that other teams have used that time where manu has been a mess, and moved on, teams like Brighton and Aston Villa Fx, and that they truly belive that just because of the size of their club and the trophies that they won 15 years ago means that as soon as ownership, manager, recruitment etc. is fixed they are just gonna walk straight back into top of the football world. I mean look at liverpool, they are also on of the biggest clubs in the world.. they didnt win the league for 30 years.. Fixing ur issues is just the start of everything, then once u have done that, there is still a longer periode where u need to build it all up again and then if u do that as well, then u are getting into a position where u can talk about being a top team. Again for me, looking from the outside, its like manu fans just dont get that, and are just demanding succes here and now, because its manu.. and if they dont get the success, they just turn toxic over and over and over again. That again puts immense pressure on the team and contributes further to the quagmire they are in currently. If the fans could actually get on board and just signal to the team that they are behind em regardless, i am sure that would benefit everyone at the club themself included. Here i dont mean that everyone should just be happy about playing in the best league in the world and be content with that, but i see so much negative content about manu. If they lost a game, player ratings are in the 2s and 3s.. there is not one of them that gets a 4 or 5 for effort, if a player had a bad day, its not about trying to help him come back up, its about tearing him down as far as possible and saying stuff like he isnt fit to wear the shirt. And even worse, at this point even if they had a good game, individually or as a team, by now it feels like manu fans just think its a blip and rather wanna stay on the critical side rather then contributing anything positive. Obviously that is a generalisation, manu has many many fans, and its not all of them that fit this bill, but as an outsider this is what i see, and it just cant be helpful to getting ur club back up where u think it belongs.
@@SonnyK248 I am a Liverpool fan so 😂😂😂 The Glazers still own 50% of that club and their terrible decisions have direct consequences on failures today. I don’t think INEOS can stroll in and fix the club in a couple months. This will take months, if not years.
@@t1ma_21 get out of here pal 😂 Before the season started you were all chirping that Ineos had saved the club. Talking about the new signings being a sign that the club were being run right. Then as soon as the losses started piling up as per usual you all went back to blaming the boogie man owners 🙃
@@SonnyK248 Im a Liverpool fan why you keep say “you” 😂😂 idm watching united in shambles 😂 But on a serious note, my analysis has always been that United will need time to restructure themselves. The signings were solid, but clearly there are issues in that dressing room as well as managerial issues. Fundamentally, the failure of the ownership is to blame for the general situation of United, in terms of the lack of long term planning, sacking managers and not doing a player clear-out, infrastructure lacking, lack of strategy in the transfer market. It is very naive to think 1 summer window can turn United from a 3-8th team to a solid top 4 team that can be close to title challenges like Arsenal
@@t1ma_21 the owners don’t get involved pal. They just arm the manager with hundreds of millions every season which for my money is a good owner. If you’re a manager what you want is money and control which is what Hag has had in spades. He’s just f’d it up. Give Klopp 200 mill a season and he’d have probably won twice as much as he did when he was with you.
I don't know how you can have the owners 4th when everything else on this list is directly affected by them. Sure if you want to give the new ownership a grace period to get things right sure, but thats something that could still cause problems and not work out with everything they're currently doing you're not going to see the results of for another 3-4 years yet. The owners should be one because of everything else on this list is their responsibility.
United had Alvaro Carass, whose now playing great for Benfica. Doesnt even use Amass, who, looks even better than Shaw did at 17. Letting Brandon Williams go on a free - whose still out of a club - is just moronic. No fit Left Backs in the side. Manager has to go.
The fans are the biggest problem at Man U. Constantly contradicting their own opinions, demanding overnight success and not being patient enough to see a project through. Also they’re well known for leaving early when their team isn’t winning.
Without even watching in full, if the players are in any lower than 3rd, that's ridiculous. United's squad is nowhere near adequate considering the same rubbish players, who should have been sold years ago, still start nearly every week.
I'm looking not only at the current problems what also what got Utd to where they are now. 1. The management 2. The players 3. Recruitment 4. The manager 5. Fans The management doesn't have any vision for how they wanted the game to be played at Utd. Contrast this with Brighton, where the management appoints a manager to play in a certain way & recruit players to suit their model of play. Too many new players act as if they have achieved their life's ambitions by getting into Man Utd. There is no ambition to win the EPL or UCL. The management & successive managers have bought players who are big names, without considering whether those players are suitable for the EPL and/or the positions they are expected to play. Since RvP left, Utd haven't had a decent no. 9. Instead they chased Sancho for 2 years, whose best position is the same as Rashford's. Varane was a great defender, but never had an injury-free season at Real. Casemiro was a great DM, but was not a long term solution, so paying a big fee/wages never makes sense. The managers have all failed at Utd post SAF. It's is undisputable that they have all been more successful elsewhere both before & after Utd, bar Solskjaer, who got the job only because he was a Utd legend. Perhaps, this explains why Tuchel reportedly turned down the chance to manage Utd. Yes, ten Hag & his predecessors weren't flexible enough to formulate a game plan to suit the players they already had. Each have not been helped by their own, as well as, their predecessors' recruits. The fans at Utd are too used to the success during the SAF reign and turn on the management, team and manager whenever things go wrong. Fans demand big name signings on huge transfer fees. I doubt whether Utd fans would have backed Slot if he was appointed to succeed ten Hag in June. I'm pretty sure the fans would be calling for the board to resign if Utd went into the new season without signing a single new player.
Did this get done for Arsenal when they finished 8th then 8th? No they had youth as an excuse. Interesting to see United’s average age in comparison to that
Unfortunately there was no discussion on how poor the players' mentality is - go a goal down and their heads drop. No way ten Hag is a bigger problem than the players - some of them have sacked multiple managers.
@@ameypv you’re deluded. The managers primary job is to make sure the players are performing at a high level every week. It comes before recruitment and tactics and everything else. If he can’t get them performing then he needs to leave because he can’t do the job.
@@SonnyK248 “players are performing at the highest level every week” - is a combination of: 1. A good tactical plan (the manager is failing here) 2. The right motivation and application to stick to the plan. The manager can influence 1, not 2. You cannot teach players to put in effort and give their all for the badge come what may.
@@ameypv my god pal you have zero clue what management is 🤦♂️😂 you think it’s like your Fifa game where you just buy players and choose tactics. The first port of call for a manager is managing players 🤦♂️ it’s his responsibility to get them to play well. If they play badly what’s he supposed to do shrug his shoulders and hope for the best next time? Of course not 🤦♂️ he has to use his management skills to make sure it doesn’t happen again. I don’t understand how you can think that a manager of a team can send his players out every week and they play awful and that not be on him? 🤦♂️
But think of the pressure at United. Martineli didn’t play well and nobody cares and the spurs players no one mention them. Anthony gets abuse every week without even kicking a ball!!!
1 problem is coach and also Bruno's gameplay is he presses to much towards the opponent's defenders then when it comes to defending when we lose the ball Bruno's energy is already drained and it creates pressure in the middle field between the defensive midfielders.the answer is bring in a number 8 who defends more and vision with more passes from behind(cutting long cross ball passes and in-between passes).give me the coaching job.
No: 1 should be the absolute obsession the media has with them. Players and managers crumble under the pressure. i cant stand them but its actually ridiculous
If Man Utd had a similar conversion rate as Arsenal Arteta or Pep Man City since Ten Hag took the job we would have scored like over 100 goals more than we have done in all competitions. Add the fact we have been denied about 60 penalties or so and given away like 10 non-penalties, opposition got away with like 30 red card offences while we get red cards for nothing. Most of the XG against was in the 2nd half when we were down to 10 men and now people think that is how we have been playing all season. Man Utd top shop count for the EL and have nearly conceded the fewest shots but have scored 4 and conceded 4.
Realistically…my top 5 1/ Unai Emery 2/ Pochettino 3/ Ange Postacoglu 4/ Zidadine Zidane/ Xavi 5/ Micheal Carrick (The Dream) = Jurgen Klopp.. Let me know what you think?????🤔
Tottenham have faced 1 more shot than they have attempted in the EL and have a goal difference of +4. Man Utd attempted 27 shots more than we have faced and our goal difference is +0. What is funny is Spurs have only shot 27 times in the EL.

5. The Glazers
Owners that continue to give the manager 100s of ms every year?
How the hell is it the glazers?? Are you delusional?
New manager will want his "own" players... Circle continues 😢
Who's gonna do a better job than ETH??? you keep firing and hiring new managers and nothing changes, it's much deeper than the manager
Didnt someone on Sky Sports say United are ‘irrelevant’ now? Won’t stop them making videos on them every week.
Happy 3rd anniversary on this topic lads
James coming here with the Sam Johnstone haircut. Looks good my guy👌
this segment is more frequent then tv show seasons
Without even watching in full, if the players are in any lower than 3rd, that's ridiculous. United's squad is nowhere near adequate considering the same rubbish players, who should have been sold years ago, still start nearly every week.
Everyone seriously profits from United’s downfall…United is honestly the biggest club on the planet.
Abz talks ball 🗣️🔥
I'm looking not only at the current problems what also what got Utd to where they are now.
1. The management
2. The players
3. Recruitment
4. The manager
5. Fans
The management doesn't have any vision for how they wanted the game to be played at Utd. Contrast this with Brighton, where the management appoints a manager to play in a certain way & recruit players to suit their model of play.
Too many new players act as if they have achieved their life's ambitions by getting into Man Utd. There is no ambition to win the EPL or UCL.
The management & successive managers have bought players who are big names, without considering whether those players are suitable for the EPL and/or the positions they are expected to play. Since RvP left, Utd haven't had a decent no. 9. Instead they chased Sancho for 2 years, whose best position is the same as Rashford's. Varane was a great defender, but never had an injury-free season at Real. Casemiro was a great DM, but was not a long term solution, so paying a big fee/wages never makes sense.
The managers have all failed at Utd post SAF. It's is undisputable that they have all been more successful elsewhere both before & after Utd, bar Solskjaer, who got the job only because he was a Utd legend. Perhaps, this explains why Tuchel reportedly turned down the chance to manage Utd. Yes, ten Hag & his predecessors weren't flexible enough to formulate a game plan to suit the players they already had. Each have not been helped by their own, as well as, their predecessors' recruits.
The fans at Utd are too used to the success during the SAF reign and turn on the management, team and manager whenever things go wrong. Fans demand big name signings on huge transfer fees. I doubt whether Utd fans would have backed Slot if he was appointed to succeed ten Hag in June. I'm pretty sure the fans would be calling for the board to resign if Utd went into the new season without signing a single new player.
Doesn't this video happen every year?
Did this get done for Arsenal when they finished 8th then 8th?
No they had youth as an excuse. Interesting to see United’s average age in comparison to that
Why do United fans keep mentioning Arsenal? Just trust the process and stop obsessing about other teams.
Everyone needs more time....
If United don’t want to have injuries then they need to sell injury prone players and buy fit players
Here for abz ❤❤❤❤
**Hated, Adored, But NEVER ignored**
Can't ignore the embarrassment of a club it is 😂
Nice cope.

Unfortunately there was no discussion on how poor the players' mentality is - go a goal down and their heads drop. No way ten Hag is a bigger problem than the players - some of them have sacked multiple managers.
It’s his job to motivate the players 🤦♂️
@@SonnyK248 no - the players should he motivated enough to play for a club like Man United. His job is to coach them to play according to his plan.
@@ameypv you’re deluded. The managers primary job is to make sure the players are performing at a high level every week. It comes before recruitment and tactics and everything else. If he can’t get them performing then he needs to leave because he can’t do the job.
@@SonnyK248 “players are performing at the highest level every week” - is a combination of:
1. A good tactical plan (the manager is failing here)
2. The right motivation and application to stick to the plan.
The manager can influence 1, not 2. You cannot teach players to put in effort and give their all for the badge come what may.
@@ameypv my god pal you have zero clue what management is 🤦♂️😂 you think it’s like your Fifa game where you just buy players and choose tactics. The first port of call for a manager is managing players 🤦♂️ it’s his responsibility to get them to play well. If they play badly what’s he supposed to do shrug his shoulders and hope for the best next time? Of course not 🤦♂️ he has to use his management skills to make sure it doesn’t happen again. I don’t understand how you can think that a manager of a team can send his players out every week and they play awful and that not be on him? 🤦♂️
But think of the pressure at United. Martineli didn’t play well and nobody cares and the spurs players no one mention them. Anthony gets abuse every week without even kicking a ball!!!
Zirkzee release clause was not smart lol. they activated it for extra fees.
that goal difference stat is crazy
sky posts about united at least twice a day😂😂😂
Antony 🐐🐐🗣️🗣️🔥🔥
1. Is fan expectations
You mean media expectations 😂
Expecting not to play the worst football in the league and not finish mid table isn’t a huge expectation 😂
1 problem is coach and also Bruno's gameplay is he presses to much towards the opponent's defenders then when it comes to defending when we lose the ball Bruno's energy is already drained and it creates pressure in the middle field between the defensive midfielders.the answer is bring in a number 8 who defends more and vision with more passes from behind(cutting long cross ball passes and in-between passes).give me the coaching job.
No: 1 should be the absolute obsession the media has with them. Players and managers crumble under the pressure. i cant stand them but its actually ridiculous
If Man Utd had a similar conversion rate as Arsenal Arteta or Pep Man City since Ten Hag took the job we would have scored like over 100 goals more than we have done in all competitions. Add the fact we have been denied about 60 penalties or so and given away like 10 non-penalties, opposition got away with like 30 red card offences while we get red cards for nothing. Most of the XG against was in the 2nd half when we were down to 10 men and now people think that is how we have been playing all season. Man Utd top shop count for the EL and have nearly conceded the fewest shots but have scored 4 and conceded 4.

Realistically…my top 5
1/ Unai Emery
2/ Pochettino
3/ Ange Postacoglu
4/ Zidadine Zidane/ Xavi
5/ Micheal Carrick
(The Dream) = Jurgen Klopp..
Let me know what you think?????🤔
“Hated, adored, never ignored” - Man Utd fans
“Why do they keep talking about us 😭😭😭” - also Man Utd fans
😂😂😂
Why is Antony in the thumbnail? Plenty of other options if youre referring to bad buys.
so the manager has been the problem for a decade? 😭
13:28. Surely the teams around them are Nottingham Forest, Bournemouth and Brighton
0:22 Damn ... it's a recurring segment now ...
Marcus Rashford, Bruno Fernandes, Erik Ten Hag, Glazers, MUST and match going fans tolerating all of it in no particular order
I have an issue with INEOS because they kept ETH, bought half of Ajax and not they cannot sack him. Huge first mistake.
Ten haag needs to be one of these
As a Liverpool fan, I agree with James. Ten Hag should stay.
#1 Owners
#2 Players
#3 Recruitment
#4 Manager
#5 Infrastructure
#1 is manager he chose the players and tactics but i hope he stays 😂
@@domyoung8473 Glazers still own 75% and we have almost 1B of debt - owners are number 1.
Tottenham have faced 1 more shot than they have attempted in the EL and have a goal difference of +4. Man Utd attempted 27 shots more than we have faced and our goal difference is +0. What is funny is Spurs have only shot 27 times in the EL.
