**With all the talk about Lee Carsley and the uncertainty around the England job, Erik ten Hag’s anticipated return to Manchester United is almost going under the radar.**
Ten Hag’s former coach Benni McCarthy spoke out in favour of the Dutchman over the weekend, saying that too often the performances United’s players produced in training were not replicated on matchday.
**Ten Hag is due back at Carrington – most of United’s players are still on international duty – to begin preparations for Saturday’s home game against Brentford, whose manager Thomas Frank was among those spoken to by United’s hierarchy towards the end of last season.**
After that, it is a Europa League trip to a Fenerbahce side managed by former United boss Jose Mourinho.

I see we have defaulted to the “Man expected to show up at his job” level of reporting.
Good stuff.

Man returns to the workplace he works at. More to follow.

The noise inside the club was always pointing this direction.
I guess we just need to support this and hope it improves. Not that I believe it will…

TBF the longer the international break went on with Ineos not making a decision, I don’t think they will be making one at least for the time being.

Media so starved from notable Man Utd stories for a blistering 3 days that they’re now reporting on someone turning up to their job on a Monday

Your TV license fees hard at work, British folks.
Their whole website is a meme at this point.

The headlines Monday morning:
“Under fire Ten Hag, returns back to Carrington through the front door having successfully passed through 4 sets of traffic lights on the journey in. Unclear if the Man Utd manager left the stubble on his head this morning or decided to clean shave it. Updates on his breakfast to follow.”

I’d expect better from Simon Stone and the BBC.
100 word article on Ten Hag going to work.

Any chance Stone got the B and S letters mixed up on his keyboard?

Stoney not getting his usual feeds since Ineos, so he’s scraping the barrel with anything he possibly can.

HELL YEAH 💅🏽❗❗‼️‼️‼️LET’S GOOOO 🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔥 EXCITED ASF CAN’T WAIT 🤯🗣️🔥😝🦅🦅🦅⁉️⁉️⁉️⁉️
You’d have to be a bit mad to become a Man United manager. Seems like it’d be an awful experience.
Tuesday: Eth sacked
Wednesday: Eth to 🇳🇱
Sad
Another lost season. At least I have my weekends back.
Next will be “Ten Hag late arrives late at training ground after being stuck on motorway. His future now in doubt and board meeting expected.”
