Manchester United beaten 1-0 at Newcastle by Anthony Gordons 55th-minute goal; Erik ten Hags side second best for majority of game at St James Park, and are leapfrogged by hosts, who move into fifth place; Magpies goalkeeper Nick Pope substituted late on and may require an operation
Sell Rashford. That tells everyone in the club that they are not bigger than the club and are free to go if they do not want to work for it.
That’s the best thing they can do.
They have several young players that have potential. Play them in his place.
Sell old players who destroy the locker room. They spend nearly 400mil since Ten Hag and most of his acquisitions do not even play and are warming the bench.
They are entering a very dangerous spiral and I hope as a rival fan that they can fix that. I do not think they will be top 8 at the end of this season.
I do not think sacking Ten Hag is a solution, as yes, he’s not doing good job, but the core squad is the same since the first sacking of a manager. I would suggest recycle the players and if that does not work, then goes the manager.
It’s not managers fault if several managers who are highly regarded (ETH is basically on paper the worst of them) fail miserably without showing any progress along the way.
Problem is no one wants these out of form players on massive wages. Who’s going to pay rashford anywhere near 350k?
