Well, what to say.
As the classics said-the end is somewhat predictable.
Though right till the very end I believed that, just a little bit everybody would turn up alive, the wounded come back, all the Ugartes and de Ligts would appear, and the bald ship would rush forward, ramming into everything that comes into its way.
At first, Ten Hag looked like some fighting Brother, who seriously got down to business and introduced the basics of special Tai Chi Chuan gymnastics. He shouted, drove his subordinates under the stream, and the idea of recreating Ajax did not even seem so absurd.
Although later in the text, we will separately note the idiocy of the new management that missed the time and opportunities for changes, gave ETH a complete carte blanche for transfers, and lost all potential replacements. For all that, disappointed, they fired the coach at the end of October. 0 reply

Fonseca, August 24: "We have an attitude problem, a desire to defend as a team. When the opponent passes our press, we have difficulty coming back, we are not compact. In training, the team is good, then you go to the matches and all this happens. That is not easy to explain.
Fonseca, September 17: "We conceded two goals from set pieces, then we lost the confidence, and when a team loses its confidence, it does not do what it has been doing in training. After the second goal, we stopped playing football.
Fonseca, 6 October: "We did not have any aggression. I told players that the problem was in not in tactics, we were just not aggressive enough, both in defense and in attack.We were too indecisive."
And what a curious expression of words. "It is difficult to explain." But isn't the coach supposed to understand what happens with the team? It's impossible to take not every crisis under control, but publicly to state that you can't explain what's going on seems to be the opposite of what a coach is employed for. 1 reply
