SURPRISE!!
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer | W15 D2 L4
- Thread starter Tom Van Persie
- Start date
Told me wife earlier, she wasn't happy.Words are cheap.Post a pic as evidence at the caf once that happen.
If we'll win it of course.
Haven't even got the kids on my body.
Still doing it.
We had a great defensive shape throughout the game when soaking up pressure which was a worry for me with OGS. I knew he would play attacking football (he's known as the most attacking coach in Europe at Molde), but I wondered how he would approach big games. Impressive so far.
He deserves the manager spot unless something catastrophic happens between now and the end of the season. I hope he's good in the market if he stays because we need at least 6 starters over the next 2 years.

The first time since Sir Alex left this just feels like the Manchester United we all knew and fell in love with.
I’m enjoying every minute so far!
Ole looks the real deal.

Remarkable turnaround so far, however this turns out in the end.
and Steve Bruce
Can we ban everyone who voted "NO" to the question if he was a good appointment
If Ole doesn’t get the job after this, then the next guy will have an even harder act to follow than Moyes did after all that’s happened since 2013.
We should ban anyone who didn't vote "I love Ole more than I could love my own child".Can we ban everyone who voted "NO" to the question if he was a good appointment
Yeap,was only thinking the same.
I think you're right!Thought we'd lose that game...
This is starting to turn into some kind of phenomenon. It's incredible.
I'm really starting to lean towards giving him the role permanently - something I was really, genuinely against when he was initially appointed.
Any other initial cynics that are starting to lean toward giving it to him?

His job to lose now I think.
Pochettino would be a bit of a comedown at this stage. Would honestly rather Zidane if we insist on a new coach.

I'm on the Ole train. Had a lot of doubts when he was installed. But apart from being the most likeable person in football he simply seems to affect everyone positively, which translates into performances and togetherness.
I was adamant about not being suckered in by romanticism but it is just so great to see how much he loves the club.
Get a structure in place with competent people and sideline Woodward from football operations and we're as good as can be under the current ownership.

8 in a row. I am always a negative bastard in the match thread, but I am happy as a motherfecker right now. The greatest winning streak in all of sports today continues! The Norwegian Express cannot be stopped! Choo Choo Motherfecker!
OLE IN!
OLE IN!
Fantastic counter attacking performance from Ole. That tactic to leave Lukaku as the out ball out wide worked a charm and won us the game.
The form is exceptional and very crucial with Liverpool and PSG coming up.
OLE

Wouldn't it be delicious if they were the catalyst for us coming back to power...again?
Whats a defeat
0 concern - Utd could buy their entire club for less than Fred cost us.... Solskær > Fred
Second game we used the diamond away against a "top" team; the first being Spurs. Worked like a charm. OGS gets a lot of cred for his man management and installing positivity in the squad; but he is shaping up to be quite the tactician as well. I think we will go like this against PSG and the scousers as well; and damn it if I dont think we will beat both of them...
I can't wait for the PSG games. We're winning that round.
When is the last time we won 8 in a row?
Win our next 3 games and he'll have set a record that won't be broken in many of years, absolutely amazing.
Won't get carried away but He's done really well so far. I liked how He said something along the lines of "We've beaten our tests but what We haven't shown is how to react after a goal down" post Tottenham match.
He's a very realistic manager. He expects to win every games but know We can't play perfectly all the time. Plays attacking football but also pragmatic. Mini Sir Alex

.Last night.
Looks like Mourinho's first season, won nine on the bounce in a sequence beginning in December
I love him.
Perfect.
Perfect.
Another legacy in the making. Busby, Fergie and Ole.
Beautiful Football.
He is perfecting playing on the counter.
Improving our defense.
The Supporters and players will be wanting him here for good.
The board cannot appoint anyone better.

Spot on there my friend. Nice memory ya got there.
For me, if he gets anything out of the PSG, LFC, and City games, then there is nothing else anybody could have done better.
You should just to see some interesting set up and good counterattacking football.
The best reason to see united games is because we can be good to watch
Just for fun
Would be insane.. and a freak phenomenal result if we'll reach.. highly doubt but hey who knows20LE.
Deserves all the plaudits and then some.
However, I know I'm being greedy here but I'd like to see more control. Specifically midfield control.
If by the end of the season we can impose ourselves against teams like Arsenal/Spurs/City/Liverpool by counter pressing and dominating periods of the game when we're the ones being pressed, that will really impress me.
Conceding possession and playing on the counter attack is extremely pragmatic and all you can hope for after only a month or so coaching, so I get that. It's just Matic, Pogba and Herrera should really be able to dominate midfields one-to-one and control games against Spur's and Arsenal's midfield easily if we set up for it.
Defensively, our line needs to be higher and more aggressive. Then our team pressing can be more tighter/tactical. Right now we are being coached very smartly by relying on fundamentals, good man management and individual brilliance/ability across the pitch.
