Kind of reminds me of when Tottenham hired Christian Gross from the Swiss league in 1997.
When some doesn’t get the dress code. That’s what you sound like.
I would rather have Pardew over Ole right now. At least his disco dancing on the touch line is better.Just watched it. Amazing. After 2 years he is still talking about bumps on the road. But i give him one thing; he is clever fecker. He always, when results are bad, casually throws some excuses without saying them as excuses. Like today when he reminded all how we beat RB and PSG. Or how it is a long term process etc...
I would take Moyes back right now. His football is at least more exciting with billion crosses
Sorry if I’m not following the narrative of everyone else but a lot of people are being driven by sensationalist bull shit in my view.
Give over! Taking over Real and Barca after only coaching B teams briefly is a VASTLY bigger jump.
What exactly is bollocks about it?
What it actually means is ....more opposition and Norwegian Ole Instagram fans have voted for Ole to stay
When we signed Bruno and he was looking good everyone was saying what a leader he is. Maguire too. Who’s the leaders at city since Kompany went? No one shouts out to me. How about spurs? None there for me. Liverpool have got one or two, Chelsea? maybe one at a push? It’s a load of shit. when your on form and doing well everyone’s happy, no one said we had no leaders when we pushed on to third at the end of last season. No one was moaning about or style of play or lack of coaching then. Now we are analysing every single word in a press conference? No one moaned about the “press” vs city last year or Chelsea. Or PSG or RB recently. It all boils down to form and a bit of luck here and there but ultimately the players decide. Quite often they are the ones who don’t turn up. Ask yourself over the last 7 years why do we suddenly try in the last 10 mins when we getting beat? It’s not on the managers or the coaches. It’s attitude of playersWhat exactly is bollocks about it?
We are a team that looks like it has zero leadership. In all but 3 matches this season we've look totally bereft of it. In many more last season as well.
We're also a team that has no discernible style of play, other than when we're the underdogs and we sit deep and hit teams on the counter. We have no clue how to break down low blocks or deal with teams that put a high press on us. And on top of that we have no fecking clue how to press as a team. Our off the ball work has usually been shambolic.
Nothing wrong with following the narrative.. it’s just the fact you actually believe this is working and that people have changed there stance because Andy Mitten now has doubts too.
That is going to be a problem for Poch as well if he comes. If you don't have a DoF who's been buying players for the last three years to play your style, you are in trouble. If you don't have one doing it for the next three years, you are fekked.
100% agree with this, it just doesn’t matter. The Glazers are obviously clever people but it makes you wonder having been here many years you’d think they must know the structure ain’t working as we’ve been through 3 managers already and they 4 is on the verge....
It's pretty simple, you get the next guy in. Liverpool went from Benitez to Hodgson to Dalglish to Rodgers and then got Klopp.
You say that like it's only one thing holding us back (the manager).
I keep saying the same thing about you, but you are still here!? No one is going anywhere...

The next top class manager is not going to win the PL or the CL but he is going to get better outcome with this lot of players. Then you take the next step and get a couple of better players.
Let's see who's going to stay or go? I have been a United supporter since 1967. When did you become one?
You probably should ignore that guy...
True. Aside from the wages, another reason why we can't get good fees for our players is that the managers never seem to get the best of them. Hence they're always sold at a low point with a depreciated value, which of course affects transfer dealings.
They lack a proper system. The players rely too much on their ability rather than a system. Why is it that every time Rashford Pogba Martial Maguire Bruno gets the ball they always try to do something special with it?
I agree with you. It's also a board problem. We seem to go after a certain player only and then raise his transfer fee. If we look at a couple of players in any position then we would have to get a better chance of getting the players at a decent price. If the selling club knows that we have a couple of options then they are more flexible.
Most of those players Ole bought/promoted. But nevermind that, it is not on players. It is on manager. In good times and bad times. He picks players, he runs trainings, he is in charge for match preparation, morale, sharpness etc....
Yeah the players that actually go on the pitch are 0% responsible for any result.
Did you try very hard to move responsibility for the 5-0 win vs Leipzig from the manager onto the players?
I praised both what's your point?
Point is obvious, but since you need it spelled out it's basically that you can't say it's largely down to the players... unless they win that is. That's simply biased.
What? If the results of football matches (win, lose or draw) aren't largely down to the players that walk on the pitch I'm completely lost.
When Sir Alex was winning all those trophies, how much was our success down to him?
A large part. Again what's your point?
Dont remember. In the early 80’s through my father. Lost interest a while, but refocus my love when Van Gal brought one of my old coaches. But I didn’t post after last season Ole deserved another year, only to jump ship after a few early bumps.
First 2 matches were our preseason. last 2 were because of covid. We still have 6 points from 3 games scoring 6. Not a bad record
