While Ten Hag begs for patience, his fellow manager's methods continue to have a transformative effect at Villa Park
was in the balance, is back on the chatroom agenda. The ethical question of pursuing a manager who signed a five-year contract extension atThe appeal of Emery would be strong in a stacked field. In the context of the current paucity of candidates he is the name-your-price target for supporters and pundits. Whether he might listen to the siren call of a failing giant is another matter.
There are few secrets in the coaching sphere. Ten Hag is not failing for want of knowledge or understanding of coaching mores or developments. He is surrounded by trusted aides and spends as much time on the details as the next guru. You need only listen to his analysis of matches when in the pundit’s chair in his native Netherlands to get a sense of his grasp of tactics.
Denied the trust of the owners, his job became impossible but failure in his case did not accord with his qualities as a coach. He just needed the right villa, which he found immediately at Villarreal and subsequently Villa Park. Now, you might think that an argument in favour of United persisting with Ten Hag, except it ignores Emery’s prior record of success in Spain and France, and his subsequent work on the Costa del Azahar and in Birmingham.
