@GifLord are you Ole in or Ole out? I see improvement but I also see plenty of evidence to the contrary. Re: Squad depth for instance it's partly down to Ole too no? He let Fellaini and Lukaku go but he should have put more pressure on Woodward especially in public. I'm not saying full Jose but something other than 'I'm happy with my squad'.
I feel for Ole. He is so out of his depth. He is playing the best English team in a decade. Maybe the best PL team of all time. He has a boss who can't get one deal over the line without overpaying by millions. The owners are parasites who only care about dividends.
He has no great philosophy or style to counter two of the best coaches around. Three if you add Brendan. Some of his players are gutless chancers who he didn't buy. He's saddled with Pogba - an staggeringly good player who doesn't want to be there.
Ole knows how bad this looks for him. His reputation might never recover and he's still a young man with years left to be a manager. He just can't win. If he wins games he prolongs his inevitable fall. If he loses he comes off as a clown.
What can he do in public? Admit he is nowhere near the standard? Admit that he was a fool to play Rashford? Admit that the club seems to be incapable of signing one semi decent forward or midfielder? Jose wouldn't stand for the board's incompetence and would have kicked up a fuss but then the caf didn't want Jose because he was such a massive whinger.
