Man Utd Thread:

Ole just needs more time. He's only had 3 years to shape his team. Give him another £100m.

Did they actually pay £50 000 000 for Wan Bissaka .? Crystal still laughing , for sure

[quit yo jibbajabba]

Farke has just become available.

Hope this helps

Wolves and Brighton both dropped points so they don't go above you in the table. Every cloud eh?

Who hires the managers at Man Utd?  They need to be replaced whoever they are.

Ed Woodward hired Moyes,LVG, Mourinho and Solskjaer. He's stepping down from that position and another business man buddy Richard Arnold is expected to replace him.

I imagine they are waiting for Arnold to take over before appointing a new manager.

Jesus, it's not difficult to coach intensity, heart, effort and passion, you either have it or you don't! Those are basic skills you'd expect your team to put in for the manager/club/supporters/themselves.

You've either have those basics or you don't. Ole isn't getting the basics from his team

Surely that's all a given at that level.

You have to coach organization and systems and drill the f**k out them. Because your opponent will generally have done so. That's when having the better players should count.

Liverpool and City play the same basic way every week (except when Pep loses the run of himself for big CL games). All the players know what's expected and where everyone fits in.

United are stumbling from one formation to the next, with no one sure what the fucks going on! Their individual class will make the difference against the shit teams, but when they come up against teams with equally good players, they can't cope against the opposing system.

Ole will be ok. He'll be soon getting his pay off for leaving United. It will probably be the last we will see of Ole. For a while anyway. He'll either go back to managing some team in Norway or become an Ambassador for Utd when the dust settles.

Man Utd are 5th in the table. That's enough for the Glazers.

4 touches in citys box...was this worse than the Liverpool game?

I don't know but they had more shots on target on their own goal than on City's. That tells its own story

[Saffrongael]

How bad was De Gea for that Silva goal?

f**k me, I think you're onto something! This shortfall in ambition is a real drag, alright.

But why have you never mentioned this until now???

[yellowcard]

That's as comprehensive a beating as the Liverpool game, be surprised if Ole survives, it United have any ambition at all he should be chased.

I think it's been a case of them sticking with Ole, to say 'we're not a sacking club'. But the longer it goes on, the worse it becomes.

But would it be any better with a new manager? The best manager in the world would need 2 seasons to shift all that dead wood. And there is a shit load of dead wood.  All this talk of United having a good squad is nonsense. The squad is piss poor. Especially in key positions.

Ole was getting credit for shifting the dead wood at the club not too long ago. Had he replaced deadwood with deadwood?

Yes. McTominay Rashford Greenwood AWB Lingard Matic Bailly Lindelof etc are squad players at best. But that's half of this current team!

CM is a joke. The defence is a joke. The goalkeeper is  poor and two 30+ strikers are leading the front. Where/who are the leaders? Who do you look to when things aren't going well? Who will grab the game by the throat and inspire those around him?

Not quite sure how Maguire steers away from criticism when these sort of lists are produced. Pound for pound one of the worst signings in premier league history. Good in the air but offers very little else and he has actually got worse this season.

[quit yo jibbajabba]

He doesnt. Just that one.

Neil Warnock now available. Hope this helps

[Milltown Row2]

I'd settle for big Sam at this point!

On another note, why is it all women doing the commentary on the Utd Spurs ladies game? Surely that goes against equality?

Anyway, Ballyhale v OLoughlin Gaels should be tasty

I included him within the "etc"
