Anyone worried?
If things go pear shape we might get relegated.
I'm hoping for the best but something tells me its not that easy.
Yeah, I think this is potentially a really dangerous move...
It's underestimating the PL I reckon.
Mourinho needed to go, but this is cronyism - as with the hiring of Moyes, and I just can't believe that there isn't a better option
FOR THE CLUB than Ole...
And that for me is where it's dangerous - making decisions that are not the best option
for the club, and making those decisions because of either sentiment, or contacts.
It's like we just can't do anything in a normal, functional manner as a club. One good decision just has to be followed by some bizarre, baffling gamble that seems utterly needless.
Watching those Molde highlights, it made me think of the Fulham game - a game that if you watched highlights would make you think that Mourinho's Utd were in incredible form.
And I'd add to that the defending from Fulham is better than that clip of Molde's opponents...
Again, Mourinho needed to go, but a few weeks ago he beat Juve away.
Coming into the Utd job is pressure management - interim or not. And coming into the PL - a league that completely brushed Ole aside the last time he was here isn't a joke.
Other PL teams are in the middle of their season - they're getting stuck in and fighting. We're dealing with drama, have utterly no direction, and I imagine could quite easily lose focus in that dressing room.
And also, Mike Phelan? Who is making these decisions?
Have Ole and Phelan worked together in management before? Why is Phelan needed in this dynamic?
He's hit out at Pogba in the press before, has his stint at Hull really impressed that much?
I mean, it's not really
that far off getting Moyes back for 6 months.
The chance to manage players like we have is a massive opportunity for most managers. And the chance to showcase your abilities at Man Utd for 6 months is something that basically all out of work, or lower league or championship managers would jump at.
I just think that replacing Mourinho with cronyism and jobs for the boys is a big risk, and also a bit of a cop-out.
Like I said earlier, I hope I'm wrong.
