NEW Head Of Recruitment IDENTIFIED! Official Approach This Week! | Man United News

So welcome back to the channel everyone is doing well what's going on and uh give us your feedback on that see what's going on some ask me a question let's talk about Su who's not on the list of what what are we going to do. We talked here about who Eric tan Haag is going to be and supposedly zero guarantees that um Dougy Friedman is attached U and there's some other things too, so we'll get into all that L um trying to think how I uh how I. In parallel, yesterday I had a conversation with someone close to the manager, should we say?, and the things that I've been saying on the air where I said that they probably had

this

four or five hour meeting,

this

conversation in which, Eric.

Surely they would have told me that these are the parameters for you to keep your job. So supposedly that's not the case. Basically, what I was saying all

week

end was wrong, but in my

head

I'm like this, one plus one, this is simple, right? apparently no apparently that hasn't happened so I continued like something I also said this

week

end um and obviously the person I was talking to doesn't know, but because I don't think anyone knows outside of inos. I don't think anyone knows, I think it's pure speculation on everyone's part at this point, but in a nutshell, I was saying that when you look at what Eric tenh offers, he's surely checking boxes that anyone in the future would want in terms of what that they bring as a manager and I think with all the upheaval that you are about to see in the next six months, adding to that changing the manager doesn't seem sensible, so I think Tanh High will have another year as well, I think if in fact we You can probably figure this out just fine.

I think he signed a three-year contract. I'm pretty sure Eric Tenh signed a three three deal. Yes, so Eric Tenh Hard's contract is until the summer of 2025. Now I think it makes more sense to be able to do it. let him look at this contract and if things seem to have turned the corner and are starting to go in the right direction, then around Christmas he offers you an extension, if it doesn't go well you don't have to fire him. you just allow him to leave at the end of his contracts in 2025. I think I think if they are honest, the spectacle that is the club does not depend on Eric Tanh, but there is a responsibility on the part of the man in the coach. that he has something to do with fixing that so I would wait and see how Suma develops in all honesty you know his winning percentage is still the best ever um even though I saw a thread before that was all of these. records that are records that Eric Tenh has broken, some of them have been like oh, it's the first time United has done this since 2007, which you mean, it can't be the first time we thought that the first time United finished last of his group since Sir Alex Ferguson, the greatest manager of all time, did, you know, seven years before he resigned, retired, you know what I mean, just make up?

Anyway, there are obviously no guarantees about his future at United, but that's a bit of a throwaway statement, so this comes from Chris Wheeler and he says that Eric Tag has invited the coaching staff and agents that he has no guarantees about his future at Manchester United. There is a belief that he needs to freshen up the sessions and be kinder to the players. to keep them fit for the rest of the campaign I want to know who he was talking to because that's the one that reminds me of when the players weren't happy that they were finishing training and going home once it got dark in the winter. you know like the rest of the human race has to do it sometimes and it's winter and you know you don't get off work until after 4:00 in the afternoon so it's dark like they really complain about that at United too You know, Louang Gal installed a floodlight so you could train one night because you couldn't do that for the rest of Manchester United's history and if you ask me if I'm averse to everything I read, but...

I'm also not naive enough to To think that there are not some players who are asking for this, but the group of players who ask for it and this for me is, ultimately, the problem: where are the captains in the locker room that they go? Jo, you saw it after last weekend's game after Fulham The boys want the boys want a day off the days off must be earned the days off must be earned you want a day off you should have won yesterday we could have given you the day off otherwise no, otherwise no and I, you know, people say the sessions are too intense, right?

Well, you're not playing intense enough when we play football, so how about you play more intensely and we'll relax in training, but the training has to reflect the game. If the coach demands intensity in training and then the OTs do not put him on the field, there is a disconnection, the coach will always demand more, that is always his job, it is not their job to meet expectations, refresh the sessions and make it easier. about the players now, um, I just know about Steve McLaren, what was talked about when he joined us halfway through the triple season, we lost Brian, who was largely seen as a very good builder and leader sessions, so Alex Ferguson from early until midnight. onwards he didn't take training, he watched the training and then talked to people you know he might have said some occasional words, you know, beat your man, get stricter, just little training points like that, but he didn't run the session and then had a succession of assistance from Brian Kid onwards.

I think he and Archie KNX shared it a bit more, but from Brian Kid onwards, Brian Kid led the training, so Alex Ferguson would talk to them in the group setting and then he would like to get some training as well. points, but he also went to his office for a lot of things like boxes and things like that because he doesn't need to be there for them. It comes out when it's 9 against 9, you know, 11 apart, attack versus defense, that kind of thing where you can see how this could play out in a real match and then you know that Steve McLaren was obviously the one who replaced Brian Kid.

Now, once Steve McLaren settled in, the word got out about Steve McLaren was that he put on great sessions. That's why I think he's probably part of Eric Tanh Hard's coaching staff. As a coach, it didn't always, it didn't always work very well, you know, he had a mix of successes and failures as a coach, but everything I've heard about. him as an assistant as someone who takes training sessions is that he is sensational so when people say oh 10 Hogs training sessions are too good 10 ten haag is not Fergie probably for 27 different reasons ten Haag trains but he doesn't train every aspect of the sessions he is on the pitch most of the coaches most of the coaches nowadays are generally on the pitch and the professionals I think Ancelotti is probably not that much I think Mourinho is probably not that much I think there is a lot of help doing that sort of thing, but actually I'm not even sure about sipp, you know, I think Pep Linders needs a lot of kops sessions.

It is not universal for coaches to be on the court. I think he is quite shared at United with McLaren, uh, with Mitchell Vag. and with Eric Tanh, Steve McLaren knows what a Manchester United session is like when it's good, so if the lads complain that it's too intense, he'd take it back to the players and tell them they're not meeting the standards set. require like Manchester. The United players fix that because he is a man we all know and he knows the level required not only to compete in more than 50 or 60 games a season, but also to win most of them and take all the pots, so he doesn't I agree, I would say that many and and professional is not the position as so many people have alluded to.

How many different managers have to come and not be successful at Manchester United before you realize that the structure and probably some of the players are being allowed to come? Away with the murder . a couple of years after Rio was there and those standards were maintained, but there were still people like Neville from Wes Brown or Nikki buff. I think probably at least for a couple of years before he moved on, it was around that time that you had people who knew what the standard was and held you to that standard and then I imagine he did it in the last few years of his career at Manchester United.

You know, he talked about Kieran Richardson having a Porche and Anon called him and told him. oh have you seen Kieran Richardson's Porsche and wondered when he got it because he wouldn't have driven to Manchester United training on that kind of standards and it's a small thing, it's a minor thing but even like when David Beckham had his Mok or when he shaved his

head

it's just a shaved head, it doesn't matter right? David Beckham shaved his head wore a hat all week that's what I did actually shaved my head I'm just hiding. If you wore a hat like this all week until game day, you take the hat off and Fergie goes crazy in it.

Now I don't know why that matters but Sir Alex cared and maybe it's the over-policing of minor details like that that leads you to know that some of the bigger things are being looked after properly and he also goes on to say that the United players They doubt Tenh Hard will be in charge next season and the team expects Radliff to name a new coach in the summer. No, that should be taken as gospel, is he really under the pressure claimed here or are the

news

papers blowing it out of proportion? I watched a really good video yesterday looking at the 992 93 season in which United finally won the league after 26 years. to try it and I don't remember what point in the season it was sometime early in the season all the headlines said Fergie has a chance Fergie has a chance Fergie has a chance this isn't 1990 when there were rumors of He's going to this after delivering the FA Cup, the Cupers Cup, a League Cup and finishing second in the league, so there have been clear progressions and a bad start to the season and the knives were out.

Firing the coach doesn't work. Anyway, there is a little talk. That hland could return for the Everson game, um, which is obviously the early start this weekend, whether or not he's off the bench or starting remains to be seen, but you know, hopefully, it's at minus a return to the match day team for him because the sooner he improves, the sooner we can start scoring points and not make mistakes at home. I imagine our chances will be a little better, but it will be a tough old game. 442 Shawn D, very direct, they will take advantage if our transition game is good.

He's not as good as he's been and that's going to be a problem for us, but from the title of the video it looks like Douie Fredman is the man being appointed as United's head of

recruitment

. Now I'm probably with him for most of you, a bit of a disappointing name when there have been, I mean, there have been some absolutely ridiculously big names attached to the job, including the likes of Paul Mitchell, but the name Dougie Freeman was a name which has been there since the acquisition was rumored. before the takeover was ratified it was rumored to be Douge Fredman and yes I'm disappointed you know I haven't seen an amazing track record with what happened at Crystal Palace with him.

Yes, there have been some good signings that are very obvious, but I would like to know more about everything that is happening. United presumably want a speed date because Ashworth and Barard are on gardening leave and definitely not in any WhatsApp groups with anyone. but yeah, it's a disappointing name, but from what I've seen with appointments in other areas so far, I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt and take the job he does at face value, you know, maybe it's a advantage that he has worked in a club on a smaller scale, you know, maybe he has contact in the right places.

I think they're doing the right things, so we'll see, like I said. I'm disappointed, but I'm also optimistic. I think you have to put the right people in the right places and the fact that it's not a big name, at least on some levels, has some positives because it's clearly not being called by name, so why shall we name? Look, I'm going to move on to the questions you guys have been asking AB. I said St. I think they should take responsibility for Mitchell withdrawing the race, was it going to be him with a restraining order or not. may or may not be correct um run says Steve left in 2001 2024 now Rooney said society has changed I wonder if the sessions haven't changed the players are different now they tailor the sessions to the team ok but that also assumes Steve did not have a training session between 2001 and last year, when he was appointed, whichclearly that's not the case, you know, I think he'll know how to organize a training session, you know, he's not going to have turned up the heat because this is what Manchester does.

At United when he left he just knows what top level football is supposed to be like and I'm pretty sure he's able to reply that you know the fundamentals of football tactics have changed, the fundamentals of football haven't changed, still a nice touch. a good touch a good pass is still a good pass a well done technical shot is still a well done technical shot a header is still a header, the fundamentals of football don't change, you know, you can still improve a player if he has spatial awareness and a good first touch and is able to move through space with the ball at his feet and identify the correct pass with good decision. make those things universal to football that has not changed and will not change, the way of preparation could have changed, the focus on crosses or the place where the goalkeeper kicks the ball could have changed, there could be new patterns of plays on the ball stopped, but the fundamentals of football do.

It hasn't changed probably, oh I mean realistically, like 60 70 years, it's a little bit faster every year, it gets a little bit faster and certain leagues have gone faster than other leagues, but it's a very similar game. Still, um, David says the sessions are too intense, um. traino you want to play on a Saturday it's not a switch that can be flipped if the session doesn't change it means they're not getting something Akash says Freeman is a stable option but we need to start extracting value from our

recruitment

, something we can't do in years after fair, money wasted, yes ok Notch says if they can run training sessions that lead to successful or huge progress like Liverpool and Arsenal they could do it at United yes all like people think He complained that Klo's sessions were too intense.

I'm sure they complained that the stimulation sessions were too intense, sink or swim, as simple as sink or swim, eh, Michael says I'm late to the taping, but remember our race stats were the lowest they've ever been. the league, now they complain that they are being asked to do it. improve that metric met exactly exactly when United are at the bottom of the career stats, at the bottom of the number of times we push and this and that, then you can't complain that the sessions are too hard, the sessions are hard for you because you're used to doing everything, that's why it's difficult Dan says Ste.

I think tenh High could be more tactically creative with how he uses a team that is admittedly extremely depleted or I think is making the best of a bad situation. I think he probably is. the best after a bad situation, ultimately if you don't have quality materials, you're not going to produce a quality product, the great Le brosi says the mascot mentioned in his press conference two days of rest two days of training after playing on Tuesday, that's what A good coach doesn't make them run laps. They're not robots, they're humans, they're also professional athletes, right, and I personally don't think football players work as hard as they could.

Having seen it, you already know what humans are. able to do and yes, there is a lot of Trav and yes, they have to compete every week, which makes it different from any combat sport, but still no, I think the two hours a day is, I think more could be done. The problem is moving from the current status quo to training more frequently during the day. We would see a massive drop in performance. And I don't think there is any club that is willing to endure that fall of three, four, five and six months. to see the longer lasting benefits of doing that and that's not just something that who am I to cook that's talking to some of the best strength and conditioning guys in the game there's a guy I went to the school he has worked at a number of Premier League clubs and rugby league clubs, and also people at Manchester United as the top dog in terms of strength and conditioning in terms of how hard they train and how hard they can be trained, and he believes there is room. in the tank to try even harder than they're doing, but there's a drop in performance, so there's a dance going on where people say, what's the most we can get away with training them? before we see an impact on Performance is okay, that's going to limit what you're able to do on the field because you're not willing to do this extra 10 15 25% to get you to the next level once you get over it and move on to the next level. next level.

You see, it's like you know what it is um AA says I feel like they need a fan with a megaphone to tell them how right they are behaving and that the fans aren't going to B uh for giving up they know you I don't need a fan with a megaphone but they know um Apna says state I need the names of the players who supposedly complained I just want to talk just talk nothing that involves a hockey stick and shins just talk yeah I would be worried I would love to know who are the ones that are going uh this session is very difficult jiren says what's my opinion on inagi in case someone decides not to have label I'm probably going to make another video today on potential managerial targets um gbst 107 says Ronaldo does it Excellent point yeah sports scientists They say oh no, no, this is too much and Cristiano Ronaldo says yes, he doesn't agree and then you get to the level that Cristiano Ronaldo was able to get to because you were doing those extras.

Asim says that Pep can afford to give his team a break because he is satisfied with what other teams are doing, he wants them to do it, don't you understand, you will need to work harder. I think Pep can also give his team those breaks because he can take a lot more rotation. counts when he picks his team, so his two days will probably be levels more intense than the intensity United are seeing, but because he can rotate like he's Delo Bruno and one more player he just hasn't had any free time this season and you're like, yeah, no wonder we're chirping Chris says why did it take you so long to realize that ten wasn't right for this job at what point did I say he's not right for this? job and really who do you think comes in and does a better job with the raw materials than the team we have now, please tell me.

Liam says I can't say it's been the effort that's let us down in the last few games. I feel like it's down to the skill and decline of the first team. I think that's a really huge factor. Knight says slouch, yes, I think he is slouch. Giles says Dougy Freeman has been SE Ferguson's choice all the way, uh, Shan's promise when he's around. I've been buying for Brands United, buying elsewhere, that's a good point, eh, Steven says, why doesn't Jim Radcliffe come out and come back publicly? That will stop the rumors and allow Ten Haag to get on with the job, um, yeah, I thought that would have happened.

It was a prudent thing to do, he clearly decided not to do it, so I don't know the reasons for that. I'm sure he has a strategic plan for what he says and I don't think he's saying things off the cuff. I think he knows what he means and the reasons for it, but I couldn't answer why he didn't come out and endorse it publicly. A katua guy says that even under Fergate have you ever seen a United team with as much tactical discipline as Pep makes his teams do uh it must have something to do with the culture of the training sessions yeah um I heard the small fragment before with reny Mullin.

I mean, I've been lucky enough to have that conversation with Renie Mullin on and off camera in terms of what she was looking for. I have arrived here. It is one of my most used books. It's Ren's book. In reality, it has many of Fergie's lessons. um in terms of setting up a team and how you wanted them to play and there's a lot of structure in how Pep wants to set up his teams, yeah of course there was a lot of structure in how Louis G wanted to set up his teams for inch on the pitch probably more than with Pep.

I think Pep actually allows for a little more creativity than Lou. I think Lou was extremely rigid, but they were still very, very systematic ways of playing and they both come from the Yan C. school of how football should be played, so clearly there is something different in the culture and clearly there is something different in Manchester United's culture, that's wrong and I don't think it's right to attribute it to one player, but I think the culture has to change and that could be recruiting players who are more suitable for this, maybe players who come from countries more disciplined, you know, even when that's how it's done from the beginning, so it's not different or foreign to them, but when you look at the things Lou Vanal said when he was here there's no training culture at the club that it's damning it's really damning that there is no training culture at Manchester United that's not good uh humza says the new guys used to be surprised by the level of training at United now our players don't want to maintain and increase United Standard Bingo uh V says G has made a good point overnight first season good second season poor what is that at United?

What is the 10 half done? you even make the decision to dump when it's 50/50 you move the Contex bar a million percent like it's almost a case of who's next if they're an obvious improvement then why do you dump because there's a chance it could get worse, there's a La The possibility of it being Southgate's G because Jude Bellingham manages to win him the European Championship in the summer is that it is an obvious improvement. I'll tell you right now. There is no chance he is an OB. An obvious improvement. It's not even a possible improvement. People are very confused. about what they want Ten is too disciplinarian you wanted a disciplinarian oh he's too rigid in his structure you wanted someone with a rigid structure which is like complaining Pep is not interested in playing Route One football like you bought a guy with a philosophy let him develop his philosophy and Look what happens, you know you're tired of playing defensive football for seven fields to turn you around, you know what I mean, some things take a while to build and the two, three seasons I want say, what's someone's longest-lasting post, Sir Alex, it's not long enough, it's still not long enough.

It took T Alex seven years and he is the best of all time to be able to win a title and you think that people AR Alex Ferguson can do it. in less time he's mental he's absolutely mental um anyway I'm going to finish it as always thanks for tuning in. I'm going to go to the office and get on with everything else we have to do. today, um, but greetings, tune in for those asking. I had to cancel Penny fan this week. My plan was to go tomorrow.
