Manchester United Part V/Ole Sack Watch

There was no alternative to giving Ole the job permanently, after how he did since taking over. It's the right thing to do.
They just shouldn't have announced it already, they should have kept it in the balance publicly.

I disagree, I think they should have taken it to the summer to see how the market with coaches goes.

There has been too much mediocrity at United in recent times compared to what they used to be and just jumping to hire the interim coach is not good enough

Perfectly agreed @Glory. Nothing to worry about yet. We played very well yesterday and even dominated Wolves in 10 man. It was 9-0 at attempts in the 2nd half for us until they scored the 2nd goal.

I thought United looked great during the first 20 or so minutes. Young sabotaged the game and Pogba looked like the guy who people were bashing a year ago. As good as he is, he's frustrating to watch when he's not playing well. At least, he has the ability. Smalling and Jones simply aren't good enough On the flipside, McTominay looked very good with his slick passing, movement and devotion. Even if you exclude his goal, I'd say he was one of the top performers on the night.

Wish I could downvote you for being lame

I just realized Firenze and Thimmy are two different posters.

What an arse licking melt.

Every single player of that memorable team (especially the famous class of '92) are just that for SAF and dont stfu now that they all have broadcasting voices. Theatre of Cucks.

Beta male. OUT.

Surprised he doesn't sit on the floor in the dugout with a shrine to Ferguson on his seat.

My rectus abdominis

Love it. Refreshing in an era where players and managers have no respect for each other. Throwback to a better era.

Fergie's still a common sight around Old Trafford too, we should remember.

Ole

can't wait for next season

Sacked by December?

Nah. He seems to not bottle tough choices. I see him getting rid of a lot of crap during the summer and bringing in some much needed fresh faces.

it will be hard to get good players when your playing in the no hopers lge next season

We're still in the mix and it never stopped us before. Or any of the top PL sides.

Honest question, if you hadn't lucked out vs PSG in the 2nd leg, would Woodward have decided for Ole, and announced him, so quickly?

We didn't luck out. And probably not. We've lost a few games since then but honestly 2 of them (Arsenal and Wolves in the league) we were thoroughly unlucky after hugely dominant performances. No cause for concern yet.

Well yeah, of course you lucked out

Ole's at the wheel

Lot of changes needed over the summer IMO. So much garbage in the squad. Of course we won't even come close to moving players that need to be moved along over one window.

Gonna be honest. I don't see Rashford being an elite talent or coming close to Rooney.

Yes, he's only 21 and yes he is promising but, idk, he seems to think he's already a top player and his overall game is actually quite lacking. He's a shocking finisher most of the time and even worse decision maker.

There's talk of him signing a new contract worth close to 300K. I'd honestly rather the club didn't do that.

I hope he proves me wrong and again, I do think he's going to blossom into a good player. He's the least of our problems but I don't want him being rewarded with a huge contract, he hasn't earned it.

Sanchez has to go. Just has to, but it's going to be incredibly difficult to move him on with the contract he's got.

Smalldini/Rojo/Jones/Bailly. Get rid of two of these. Preferably Rojo and Bailly. Even though the chuckle brothers are complete numpties, Jones recently extended and the other two probably bring in 50m between 'em.


We absolutely have to finally improve on fullback depth. Shaw's finally looking a good player, pleased with him. You have Dalot who seems promising and versatile but he should be a rotation player for a couple seasons at least. Ashley Young needs to fuck off to Rotheram United or something. He was solid a couple seasons ago but he is well past it and not PL material.

Martial needs to go. Lost patience with him. I always get bamboozled by his 1-2 good games every 10 on average. He's lazy and doesn't have the mentality to be an elite player. Sell him and replace him with any number of good players.

Might be time for Mata to leave too, been a good player for the club but he's getting older and doesn't offer much nowadays at the top level even as a bench option.

Fred is not convincing in the slightest, had a couple of solid performances this season but many times where he just looks like the second coming of Ali Dia and completely out of his depth. Was just signed so don't think we should be looking to move him on. Pereira apparently wants a big contract from us too and I don't think he's worth it.

Matic? ehh, first season with us he was so good, captain material. Been kinda shit since. Getting old and very injury prone. Not really a priority, happy to keep him.

Lukaku's someone we should be looking to move on too but I think it's unrealistic, not least because where are the top replacements? nobody is gonna be paying 50m for him either. But he's not someone who is going to carry us to trophies.

Players I'm happy with: De Gea, Dalot, Shaw, Pogba, Lindelof, Mctominumpty, Herrera (extend)

Players that we need to try to shift: Martial (while we can get good money for him) Sanchez, Bailly, Young, Valencia, Darmehian

Players I'd be fine keeping or selling: everyone else

Players that are complete fucking numpties: Lingard (also well out of his depth against anyone that isn't shit) but I'm fine with him being a rotational player

Hope we prioritize a new CB partner for Lindelof, a RB, a RW this summer and maybe look at improving on players that we can shift, like Martial and another CM option We absolutely need to revamp the front three though, we can't keep hoping that Martial, Rashford etc are gonna come good. Far too often we're toothless in attack.

reading that lot its gonna take you 5 years to rebuild tbh.

3 if we're serious about it. But we 100% need to improve on the attack if we're gonna do anything going forward.

Being able to offload Sanchez (2022) would be like winning the quadruple. Selling Young (2020) would be like winning the league.

You are in some shit, aren't you.
