I think that's just a meme, although with Ole you can never be too sure

Don't worry, I've got my fingers crossed that he'll see out his contract no matter what!
I saw a man who wasted half a billion and made us worse. If even half of his signings had worked out we'd be in much better shape.
United manager trying to find a positive - get the pitchforks out
Maguire is a very good defender.
The tactic was spot on. It's just the players quality was severely lacking.
Ole's summer buy players didn't look anything close to Liverpool's, despite spending 150m. Which is worrying.

It's a joke. They're taking the piss out of that comment Ole made last week about City playing their 'starting XI' against United in a league cup game.
Sometimes its like the brexit thread in here. Both are a subset of people putting blind faith above expertise for some comforting and familiar rhetoric.
The idea that there's no point sacking him because we've tried replacing managers and it hasn't worked before is obviously ridiculous and yet so often repeated.
Oles just a comfort to some, letting them lower standards so they don't have to be angry at underperformance. Eventually they'll have to come to terms with it but for now delusion is better than having expectations that might not be met.

You have got to be having a fecking laugh? Am I supposed to be positive because their players took off their damn shirts off?United manager trying to find a positive - get the pitchforks out
As I said, this is Moyes's level of stupidity and something Klopp was laughed at on this very forum.
I will not lower my expectations because the American leeches are running this club into the ground.
Did he really said that? So we are all in winning second half's and measuring opponents celebrations now?
Under no circumstances should a player not fit enough play a football match. If it's recommended for any player to take a rest even if his injury isn't strong then he should take it regardless of the result match. I'm not absolving the medical stuff from the blame, however Ole had made as big of a mistake as them risking playing him and gambling on it turning out OK when it was obvious from his own words that he knew it would have been better for Rashford to take a rest for this match.
It’s embarrassing he said the same about City because they played a strong team against us.United manager trying to find a positive - get the pitchforks out
Hes getting a kick out of teams playing against us taking the game serious? I don’t get it. Lost to City, Liverpool and Arsenal in the past 3 weeks and he comes up with ‘well at least they try hard against us, shows how far we’ve come’ bullshit.
Absolute disgrace to be honest.
The guy posted a fake tweet that was clearly a pisstake, and you still found a way to defend it as though that was what Ole had actually saidUnited manager trying to find a positive - get the pitchforks out
I think he has done some decent things behind the scenes but he isn't going to take us any further. His man management during the games has been terrible. His subtitutions are far too late in the game to be effective. The second half was crying out for Pereira and/or James to be taken off, but he left it so late as usual.
But it also means that when we get the AM, an upgrade to Matic and maybe someone to support Rashford when he’s injured, we may start to get way better results, and probably look completely different. Ideally someone who can shift the transition shape to a more offensive one for the Matic replacement.

I admire the resilience, in both defending Ole and taking shit on Pogba simultaneously.
He’s also been our most successful manager in the last 7 years.
Lukaku has gone to Inter and a top scorer in Europe.
Pogba was in the team of the year last season and when he moves will he regarded as one of the best players in the world.
Fred was MOTM today.
Zlatan has been our best signing in the last 7 years.
Van Gaal was far more damaging than Mourinho’s signings.
Oh, sorry! My misunderstanding.
Who knows what to think here on here when supporting a manager is deemed as being traitorousThe guy posted a fake tweet that was clearly a pisstake, and you still found a way to defend it as though that was what Ole had actually said
You know he didn't, right?The guy posted a fake tweet that was clearly a pisstake, and you still found a way to defend it as though that was what Ole had actually said
ffsI don't and I hope he didn't. However I wouldn't be surprised if he did. It would be as silly as the winning the second half argument
When SAF left, there was a misconception (and some still practice this cognitive error) that his results could be replicated if a good enough leader was put in his place and good enough players were bought. But the departure of SAF disrupted the whole concept of the club. Everything Manchester United has accomplished in the last 30 years is built around SAF. It cannot be replicated.
Changing coaches every 12 months only deepens the agony and delays the return to the paths of glory.
Ole is very successful considering the resources at his disposal and the OBJECTIVE he was given. Painful cuts are needed. It takes vision and direction
and I couldn't care less about the winning percentages or stat X or stat Y. Why? Because I watch all the games and I can see progress. When we are good we are BETTER than any game under previous 3 managers. PERIOD. Is this the acceptable and desired end product? Of course not. But we are closer to where we aspire to be (and believe it is our god given right), then we were since SAF left.
There is still a looong way to go. I am more than happy to give Ole the summer transfer window and than re-evaluate his impact in the winter.

There's a level of stupidity involved alright.
In actually thinking he said that. Good lord.
I agree he does need signings but I am confident enough in what he is doing... This is a long term project and I wanna see it out.
Yeah, you're right. I've edited my comment to clarify but will leave it there, so it's clear what the context is... I feel almost as embarrased as our manager should feel after today.
Its ok x
I am not slagging Maguire (although I think he is short of the very top level of a Ferdinand, Vidic, Terry or van Dijk). I just don’t feel the need to praise Ole as some DoF in waiting because he landed Maguire for a world record fee.
Well, it's been removed. And I have no idea why. Did I break some kind of rule?Wow I got banned for calling another poster a prick
Respect.

Dont know what's worse. The fact that you believed the meme quotes or the fact that someone below you was already trying to defend them
The stuff in the last couple of pages shows how idiotic engaging which lots of posters even is. There's no thought, no nuance, no depth just reactionary twitter think
Ah. So we can rip into someone with words, but not images. Got it.
Of course. I've wanted the guy gone for months. It's not reactionary, it's based on looking at our performances (not even results) and how he's clearly way out of his depth.
However, your reactionary someone-made-a-genuine-mistake-so-they-are-an-idiot is not hypocritical at all. What a bunch of nonsense.
Update from summer Bruno Fernandes expected to sign for Manchester United in 2024
You've got to admire these people, really!The guy posted a fake tweet that was clearly a pisstake, and you still found a way to defend it as though that was what Ole had actually said
In a hypothetical scenario in which Ole gets sacked tomorrow. Out of Poch and Ole which one you do think would get any offers from serious clubs?
Yeah sorry for defending our manager.You've got to admire these people, really!
Really.
No, one person's genuine mistake is demonstrative of the sort of extreme reaction quotes on twitter provoke in people. Very lightweight thinking mg in my opinion, but you engage with whoever you like it's not my place to stop you
