    Maybe I am trying to connect dots that are not there, but after reading the athletics tactical piece on him it feels like he was always the plan B after TH, he likes a striker who drops deep and plays in the wingers (zirkzee), he likes 3 atb ( we signed two CBs), Ugarte played under him before he went to PSG. He is known for bringing youth players through.

    Perhaps it’s a coincidence.

      It so sort of does seem planned to some extent as they only gave TenHag 1 year extension, had already talked to other managers. I think they were hoping to have TH get the team through the year in a reasonable state for the new guy to take over next year, but seems theyve had to accelerate the plans a bit.and just accept they will have to pay the compensation for the new manager.
