he wouldn’t take on an interim role
United’s next manager
- Thread starter Mainoldo
- Start date
Allegri until the end of this season.. then we analyze
Also, wanting Jose back after what he did to the club is pretty pathetic from some of our fans
Wenger until the end.
He's sitting around doing and earning zilch at the moment. Of course he'd take an interim role that would pay him 4-5m.
AllegrIN ffs.
Don't give a crap in hell if he plays defensive-boring as long as he saves the season (Top6 and EL title?).

Need someone with experience, managed at the top level for a number of years. All this former player nonsense is fanny. It's rose tinted rubbish. Allegri has the experience and is a serial winner.
Am sure I read the other day that Allegri wants to have a break this season and come back next summer.
Can't believe I'm seeing suggestions of getting Jose back, or Wenger or Benitez as a caretaker.
I agree Ole has run out of time, but the next appointment needs to be right - not yet another reactionary knee jerk catastrophe.
Similarly, I don't want Allegri - he's successful, but I want to see an entertaining United, not another pragmatic 1-0 grind

Define 'success everywhere'? Prior to Juve he'd been sacked by AC Milan and Cagliari. And at Juve he took over a team who had already won the league championship 3 seasons in a row. He's not exactly 'built' a winning team.
Laurent Blanc as caretaker (he should’ve been when Mourinho was sacked). Then sign Poch, Allegri, Ancelotti or Tuchel next summer.
I really don't know who is the best man for the job anymore.
No doubt he'd be sacked soon anyway so no need to think too hard I guess

I agree with this minus Allegri.
give me another example of a top class manager (who clearly wants a future full time job) ever taking on an interim role.
Can I apply? I genuinely don't think I can do worse than Solskjaer
Wenger would have sounded hilarious last season, but now it doesn't seem as whacko.
French connection, good at attacking football, caretaker manager? I think he'd leap at the chance.
Our problem would be saying NO if it went really well! We've played that game recently.
Give it Ruud Van Nistelrooy until the end of the season.
Throw whatever it takes to get him here
As a Milan supporter, you have to remember he won the league with Milan in 2011. Still the last Italian team not named Juve to win the Scudetto since then. Also he was sacked because Milan were in shambles financially due to Berlusconi and sold the two best players (prime Zlatan and Thiago Silva) to PSG with no worthy replacements. Take a look at the 2010-11 Milan winning side and compare it to the 2011-12 Milan side Allegri was given and you’ll quickly see why he left.
Eddie Howe
All this nonsense about don't care about the results, it's the style of play what counts. It's crap. The results are the be all and end all. I didn't hear many complaints when Allegri was winning title after title by Juventus fans or Chelsea fans when Conte came in and won the title in his first season. They only start to complain and notice the style of play when they are losing.
Wenger until the end of times.
Allgeri would be another dumb panicky decision. We spent an entire summer making our team pretty much the opposite of what he would like to work with.
You know Fergie brought those guys in don't you? He didn't just cruise in and find them In place?
What makes you think Allegri would be a short term manager?
They say people have short memories but bloody hell mate.
We only got rid of him about a year ago
Fair. I can understand the lack of love for Allegri and his tactics. But he definitely wins trophies. No doubt about that.
Benitez took the Chelsea job - actually put him in the frame for the Napoli job.
Give it to Mick til the season's done.
He's good but I don't think he would be the right fit for us, plus I've seen enough negative /pragmatic football to last me a lifetime .
Because that worked so well with Jose, or LVG. And I do care about style - if it was just about results I wouldn't watch football, I watch the game to be entertained, and of course - I like to see my team win. Besides, regardless of who we get in I can't see us finishing ahead of City or Liverpool unless we also get rid of Woodward and appoint a DOF. So watching us finish 3rd with Allegri sounds fecking miserable to me
Erik Ten Hag
On the WengerIn band wagon... it’ll be a laugh to see him faff about with his coat for a few months if nothing else.
Absolutely no to Allegri. I'd rather build towards something exciting and not pragmatic and dull.
I honestly think Wenger for the interim would be good.

You’ll get laughed at. Not by me, I’d like him here.
People say ‘he’s not used to working with world class players’. That’s fine, he wouldn’t have to be to manage us.
I do, the days before the clubs money went on Glaziers loan repayments.
Who spent more than us this season out of interest?
This. Ole deserves to be sacked, but the last thing we need right now is some knee jerk reaction and hire yet another caretaker or yet another manager that get sacked 6-12 months from now. I'd rather finish 17th with Ole as manager and then find a proper replacement to take us forward than to end up 7th with some dinosaur that will get us nowhere
Enough with the half measures. And fecking Ed needs to go now as well. This is the fourth manager that has failed under his watch.
If we take on a caretaker and they do alright we'll make the exact same mistake again and hire them.
Money was being taken out before the Glazers arrived too.
