Eh? Anyone Ole in is a WUM. We're the worst we've been in probably 30+ years and theres people who think we're fecking progressing.
The “Ole In” Brigade
- Thread starter Lentwood
- Start date
**** brigade.
It is clear for some time now that most of Ole in are oppo fans or just people who hate United.
He is demonstrably a poor coach. He hasn't improved us at all. We have got worse. Look at the League Table! I agree Glazers are only in it for the money and somehow we need to get them out.
Not far wrong.
Watching us deteriorate under Ole while singing his praises does require that sort of predilection.
Other clubs are laughing at us and begging us not to sack him. What the feck have we become?
I'd say 80% are noggies and 20% are sentimental fans. I cant blame them for that, but there has to come a time where you look past your personal bias and focus on whats best for the club.
If Ole managed in medieval times then his supporters would join the flagellants
The “Ole In” brigade will surely be no more now? People can’t be that deluded.
Ok, I’m still Ole in.
He, as would any other manager, wanted more/better players. Woodward didn’t give him them.
Who else could he have picked tonight? Injuries and a paper thin squad - our injury record over the years has been shocking. That needs to be addressed. Again, is the weak squad really on Ole?
He is paid well by a club to say he’s happy with the squad. Jose didn’t and he ended up getting the boot. Of course he won’t throw Woodward under the bus - he’ll fight to keep his job and try to use the players he has.
Would any other manager get anything more from that group of players tonight? I honestly don’t think they could. Maybe not 0-3 down but we’d still be well beaten.
I know I’ll get some incoming for backing Ole but he isn’t the issue. Given better players I’m still sure he’d get us top 4.

If you give such players to any other manager, they won't be able do anything. How do we know that?
At the same time you say, give better players to Ole and he will make us reach top 4.Give better players to any of the managers in the league right now and they are going to perform better.
I am not able to understand your point?
I think it's widely accepted that one of the primary reasons Ole was appointed over a more experienced or high profile candidate was his unwillingness to criticise Woodward's performance publicly the way Jose did towards the end of his tenure. Any top manager would be screaming bloody murder about our recruitment right now. With that in mind, this particular line of attack kind of does the opposite of what you want it to do.
Oh they can. Just look at the OP.
How we all feeling tonight everybody? 
Wake fecking up x

It almost reminds of when Moyes was here, except his results were better.
Why the feck did he absolutely rip up the squad then and leave himself having to play Lingard and Andreas in midfield.
How the feck is that not dogshit management @soapythecat?? My God man, think long term yes, but in sport you ALWAYS have to take care of the short term too. Ole didn't, he was on a popularism wave getting rid of disliked players and only bringing in players if they "are true United players".
Make no mistake, Ole has ripped this squad that finished 2nd to pieces and we're dogshit. But hey, give him a shitload of money and new players, he can be trusted. He got rid of them players I didn't like, he's great.
I hated Fellaini in a United shirt, but I'm not stupid enough to think he's not 100 times the player Andreas and Lingard are.
I hear you, and I kind of agree but I’m sure he was promised more then he got.
Fellaini was sold before the summer - probably with reassurances that he’d be replaced.
Lukaku because he wanted out. I doubt much Ole could have done to keep him.
Sanchez - I think we were all glad he went. James has done more then him since arriving.
Having Pogba and Martial our for long periods highlighted the weak squad but that’s on the board.
I do feel he’s massively over estimated how good our youth are/what they can do in the league though.
The ole out kids are back in force.
Again with this bullshit
Well managed second half to get use back into the game. Shame we look like we're going out. We looked good second half!
ahhh... so everyone else's fault but him.
Bollocks. Have some balls, say "no" to Lukaku like SAF did to RVN or Ronaldo, not until someone else is in the door. Don't sell Smalling if Jones is your next bet.
And if you're a top manager, find an easy signing from the Championship or France, or Belgium, or Denmark that's better at CM than Andreas.
The irony of this post.
Who out of those who want him out has turned? Like ever during his stint as a manager?
I gather you are from the delusional brigade?
We actually won the second half 1-0, so technically it was a draw
...makes everyone go "bump bump bump."
What 2nd half did you watch? How many chances did we create in that half? All we did was pushing further up and allow further space to be exploited by City. Thankfully Sterling was utter shit so the scoreline didn't become embarrassing.
What do you expect when there's another loss, a round of applause ?
Is this a WUM? It's a stretch to say we were good. We were average and City stopped playing.
So what's your answer, hotshot?
Anybody bashing Ole - please tell me you really think we'd lose today with Pogba, McTominay, Maguire, Martial starting? It's not Ole's fault his options are fecking Jones and Lingard, this squad has been run to the ground be the men above him. Sure, he's not an elite manager, but our squad is a complete joke atm ZERO depth
You didn’t ask a question genius, but to hint at the ridiculousness of your original comment; the people wanting him out never went anywhere so the idea that they’re “back” makes no sense.
Top red
Give Ole and Lingard an extension of course. They are local and have pashun. This is all it takes these days to represent United on the pitch and off it. And some fans like you are happy about it.
Now comes the question; shouldn't Man Utd manager start the game with right lineup and right formation?
Common excuse for shit is "Ole doesn't have other options". Did you all from his brigade now saw how one simple change( Matic on dmc in 433 instead Lingard on no10 in 4231) can change the squad's shape?
That is manager's job.
What was available to Ole tonight was always going to struggle. The only confusing thing about Ole is why he constantly picks Lingard. Hopefully that's the last we see of him for while.What do you expect when there's another loss, a round of applause ?
Of course we beat them in the second half. We showed them how to play football. Pep Guardiola was schooled in tactics by Ole. Pep had no clue how to overcome our brilliant tactics in the second half.
Erm, yes it is @red_de_pologne
He sold Fellaini, didn't replace Herrera, alienated Matic, sold Lukaku, got rid of Smalling.
Don't give me this bullshit that the state of the squad aint he fault when it quite fecking clearly is.
Yeah no more Lingard till Saturday.
