Pochettino insists he's ready for a return to management. . . crazy how coincidences like these happen!!

Sounds like Ole's won't be driving too much longer!!
Ole is doing fine, leave him where he is!

Absolutely!

Jokes aside...if utd win their game in hand, they are only 6 points off top, and add to that they are top of the CL group...no way they are getting rid yet (I hope)

Hopefully locked up and sacked, if true

That may just be the slackest goal I've ever seen a professional football team concede  :o

Scholes at halftime. Under 12 defending. Bit of an insult to under 12s

If this result doesn't show Ole the door I don't know what will! Love the guy but seriously?

A shock defeat, poor performance and remains to be seen how damaging that result will be in this group.

First goal especially was worse than U12 defending, 2nd goal a gift also. United never looked like scoring a 2nd goal to grab a draw. Istanbul Basaksehir unlike United made sure they were difficult score against and even former player Rafael defended well and deserved to be on the winning side tonight.

Cavani could be another Sanchez or Falcao.
Just signing a big name but not really fitting into the team. Jota fitting in perfectly at Liverpool.

Big Sam would have approved of the use of Maguire as a striker for the last 10.

Could hardly be any worse as a striker than he is as a defender..

I thought anyway ye were just undercooked, looks like some of them may go back into the oven....!

I'd rather have big Sam up front or in defence than Maguire!

Its not looking good for Ole, most of the reds on here have been reasonably happy with the job he'd done prior to this season given the improvement in results once Fernandes was signed. We played some great football for the first month after lockdown but then we started to struggle for the last few games. Soton got great joy against us whilst pressing us as did West Ham, we made the excuse the players looked tired and the lack of squad was a huge problem. United didn't invest enough last summer to make them contenders for the league but that's not an excuse for what we've seen so far, most of us made excuses earlier on in the season against Palace & Brighton as we didn't look fit but its come to the time where Ole is running out of excuses.

How Matic stayed on the pitch last night was beyond me, at fault for the first goal and played a huge part in the 2nd goal too; No idea why he was given a contract that will take him up until he's 35. The subs once again failed and made the team look even more imbalanced.

He's been in charge for 100 games and there's a clear lack of a pattern of play, that's the most concerning issue for me; Nobody has any idea how we'll play from one game to the next and without that there's no hope of any real progression. We can keep blaming the players but at this stage its becoming a bit tiresome, there's a lot of top players in that squad especially in attacking areas and in 180 minutes of football we've barely created any chances and looked completely clueless.

Ole's days are numbered, just don't see him turning it around from here but would be delighted to be proved wrong.

Shocking performance.

Not only for the goals conceded for the the lack of any pattern of play or discernible tactical approach.

Ole is looking under severe pressure and I don't see the players rushing to bail him out at the moment, hopefully we will see a reaction at the weekend.

I think even the most deluded of United fans knew Ole was never going to be there long term. The second half improvement last season kept him in the job, as this time last year it wasn't looking good for him either.

He's a likeable guy but clearly not the long term successor United fans crave. It's only a matter of time now.
