Not sure why anyone wants to keep OGS at the moment. I understand that he won 3/3 games but usually ManUtd shouldn't drop any points to Huddersfield & Co. . Also each game they conceded to the smaller teams.
There will be Tottenham coming and then 1 month rather smaller opponents (maybe not Leicester) until mid Feb. If he wins all the small games and loses the big that would be still fine. I'd say wait until March to get the tendencies.

If available I'd go with Allegri either way. Imo the best tactician.
Allegri isn’t an attacking manager. He’s not playing the Man Utd way.

I was originally a Jardim advocate. But then these guys here mentioned Marco Rose. I wouldn’t mind having more a look at him. But let’s see how our very own ole does first.

The only way we let Rose go elsewhere is if Poch has already signed. No way we should let Rose & Maric go elsewhere. Those two with McKenna? Wow, we’d be sorted.
Just hope we don't lose out on these targets because we get caught up in a wild goose chase with Levy and Poch.

I can't really see us taking that risk. It will be someone who is proven at the top level like Poch, Zidane etc.
Even though we didn't have much success with established choices post SAF.
Really like Rose though and wouldn't be against it at all.

For his name to be even leaked to Neil Ashton shows we are looking at the correct calibre of manager. Not convinced by Blanc or ZZ. Hopefully the reason we have been linked with Rose is because the football men are now actually in charge of the football sides of things or are pending. Someone like Paul Mitchell would know all about Rose.

His style is very similar to Jurgen Klopp. A very exciting coach and IMO the best candidate for the job. The story is in the unreliable Sun, but the Journalist behind it is Neil Ashton who presents the Sunday Supplement on Sky. He's actually a decent Journalist and there could be something in this. He's basically saying, if Poch turns us down, then Rose would be considered for the job and the board are admirers of the 42 year old.

I personally hope Poch turns us down if the alternative is Marco Rose.
Thanks for that info. Quite exciting times if we are being linked to managers like this. It's surprising that Ed may actually have a football brain after all than to chase the likes of Conte, Allegri etc.

I think we should prioritize style over CV. Trophies will come naturally to us regardless of the manager's CV because of two reasons - our name will attract star players who can win things for us, and two, we already have a winning mentality ingrained in our culture unlike certain other clubs. I'd assume any manager like Poch, Rose or even Ole if he stakes a claim to be made permanent, would find it easy to win trophies if they are competent.

Rose also has trophies.

We've been linked to Marco Rose in tonight's papers.
Anyone have an idea of his style?
Roses style, is based on attacking football and flexible tactics. I would not compare him to Klopp, because Rose needs a two faced team. Salzburg is the powerhouse in Austria, but on international level Salzburg is more often the underdog. So Rose knows how to adjust his team.
Most of the time he plays a 4-4-2 formation with a diamond and without real wingers, but with an attacking LB and RB, also one CF drifts outside.
Rose would play like this:
----- Herrera------
Fred ------- Pogba
--------Sanchez-------
Rashford - Martial

United would need someone to replace Matic, because Roses DM are fast and mobile just like Salzburgs Sammassekou, who was linked with PSG some days ago.
And Rose likes young players and develops them.

Was talking about the big league trophies the likes of Mourinho, Allegri and Conte have. No doubt, even Ole is a trophy winner.
European youth league with Salzburg is no mean feat. Then to transfer those skills to a first team is not easy either. All I’m saying is, Rose is accustomed to winning, whatever level that maybe. Success breeds success.

I think it is too early to judge whether giving it to Ole now but regarding the bit in bold I understand what you're saying but I'm not confident we would have got the points had Jose still been here.

We definitely would not have got them in the manner which we did.

He might not stick to that formation.

Not quite sure how to post tweets, but this could be somewhat relevant to the Rose discussion:

That's Marco Rose's name being mentioned. He works for Red Bull Salzburg and was heavily linked with RB Leipzig before Julian Nagelsmann was announced. The head of recruitment at RB Leipzig is Paul Mitchell, who himself is heavily linked to Man United. The plot thickens? https://t.co/0ph6PLKxFE

What does that even mean, ‘hipster’?
There's a proper cultural meaning but broadly it means people who just try to be 'different' (reject popular choice/consensus).

Not an insult necessarily. Klopp and Dortmund were the hipster favourite not too long ago.

No he uses most pla


Or the choice af an Austrian, who is watching Salzburg every week .... or the choice of someone who actually likes attacking football and local heroes but not the choice of someone like you who does not have any idea about football?
Just a slightly over the top reaction there. :lol:

3/5 For me
From that list my order will be:
1) OGS
2) Rose
3) Blanc
4) Zidane
5) Poch

Blanc higher up because he has the United background similar to OGS .

But i wouldn't believe so yet. We just got linked with Allegri two days ago.

3/5 For me
I would Say that arn't we meant to be hiring a director of football? surely they will have a say in who the manger would be, so wouldn't it make sense to hire them before drawing up a shortlist?

But from that list my 1 to 5 would be:
1) Pochettino
2) Marco Rose
3) Ole Gunnar Solskjær
4) Zidane
5) Blanc.


Personally I would take Blanc of the list and put on Jardim who I would put 2nd or 3rd.

We should be focusing our attention on getting the best DOF possible, we should then announce Ole Gunnar as the head coach/manager as he's best suited to understanding our football club.

Sod everyone else, we could be kicking ourselves two years from now if one of the four other names mentioned are hired and then let go as they aren't understanding the culture of our football club.

So this Marco Rose what has he done from all the plaudits. From looking at wiki this is just his second season in management where he won the league in Austria with Red Bull Salzburh who won the league three times in a row before he took over.

Has he done particularly well in Europe?

Can't see us going for anyone other than a big name, but Rose has done brillant work in Austria and in Europe. He won the Youth League with Salzburg against teams like PSG, Barca and City and almost got the first team to the EL final. Very likeable guy also.

Won the Youth League, while beating City, PSG, Atletico, Barcelona and Benfica.
Got the first team to last years EL semifinal, while beating Marseille (in the group stage), Real Sociedad, Dortmund and Lazio in the knockout rounds, losing very unlucky to Marseille in the semifinal. (they lost in extra time, after the ref gave a ridiculous corner)
Won all 6 games in this years group stage against Leipzig, Celtic and Rosenborg. They missed the CL against Belgrade on away goals after two draws, but that's due to their CL curse. ;)

I don't get what all the fuss is about, he has achieved nothing of note whatsoever. People drone on at great length about Poch's failure to secure a trophy, but some random no-mark wins the Austrian league with Salzburg and he is considered United material. Makes no sense.

Signed in just to let you know you're a Ihni binni dimi diniwiny anitaime. A needlessly aggressive tit with a superiority complex. Honestly, claiming someone doesn't know anything about football because they said Rose is the "hipster choice" - which is very obviously true. Get a grip, you child.

I am still hoping OGS works out but wouldn't mind Rose. No Zidane, please.

Because proven winners like LvG and Mourinho were successes right?

Rose, according to knowledgeable people here, plays attacking football with a structure. Plus, Salzburg topped an EL group with Celtic and Leipzig in it -- which is a massive achievement for a club their size.

As an example, look at Favre who seemingly managed lesser clubs before and what he's doing with Dortmund now.

Oh ok. Well I have no desire to be different. Don’t understand why anyone would want to be different?

Anyway, I’m all in for Rose. Take away the high profile name aspect away, he has all the other credentials to be very good for us.

All in for Pochettino and Rose, will see how OGS does between now and the end of the season before considering, Zidane I'm leass fussed about just because I don't know if he's going to be any good with squad half as good as Real Madrid's was when he won those CL's, it's already been mentioned that he's not the most tactically astute, would be great man manager though. Blanc shouldn't be on this list, at all, I'd put Tuchel or Jardim on it is instead.
