Whilst some results might have been better, I think getting another manager wouldnt have changed much.
We still needed improvement in key positions and weve had that.
Oles set up against the bigger teams has mostly been spot on. The issue has been against the lesser teams and thats mainly down to the lack of creative players weve had. We didnt have Martial and Rashford together much post lockdown. Pogba we didnt have, and we had just bought Bruno.
With them all and the added factor of Mason, we know have two ways of playing. Counter when required due to the pace, and the incisive passing and tempo to break down teams who pack out their box.
Ole has done a good job so far in most aspects:
-He hasnt hung people out in public (even when they deserved it, because he knew that they would need to be used in the next games despite not being good enough).
-His signings on the whole have been really good.
-His integration of youth has been great. (I know some people will mention Gomes, but the limited chances he had he wasnt flying, and we dont know whats happening in training and the affect his contract has).
-His ingame management esp post lockdown has been great (aided by the 5 subs of course).
-Our fowards are improving with their movement / finishing which a previous manager said cant happen.
-Our squad is a good age now and we have people who want to be here (the squad and players are likeable now - been a while since we could say that)
Obviously the season hasnt ended and it could somehow turn into disaster, but given our momentum we will hopefully see this continue into next season. Ole deserves more credit than hes gotten and it seems he hasnt been getting (maybe before this) due to his status as a manager before joining us.
