No, I want him to succeed. And by his capabilities, succeeding would be getting into the champions league. Then this summer, replace him with either Pochettino or Nagelsman. The problem with Ole is that his brand of football is reactive and similar to Mourinho where there is a big emphasis on counter attacking football. That is not the philosophy I want at United. I want philosophy that is progressive and have us playing good football.
If Ole stays another season, he will need to have an Amazing squad to accomplish anything significant. Which means, more outspending of our rivals. He is not like Klopp, Nagelsman or Pochettino who don’t needs to spends millions just to have a functioning team. Sir Alex was the same, where he doesn’t need to spend crazy amounts to have functioning team. Under Sir Alex, we were not near the top in spending. However, it is different with our current managers. These are the type of managers that will take us to the next level. Not managers who needs crazy amount of money just to have a functioning team. That is where the similarity with Di Matteo lies as he will eventually be found out/has been found out if he doesn’t improve his managerial capabilities.
If we are going to back our manager with huge sums of cash, I rather we give that amount of money to managers who have proven to have done well with limited resources and have a more progressive philosophy.
