In his second season people are expecting following:
I hope that we win every game from now until end of the time so we don't have to sack anybody.
Perhaps it is easier to rebuild a team in Italy? The level of Serie A is very very low compared to what it was, and it’s much easier and cheaper to reinforce the squad. I’m not sure how many players Conte has added to the squad, but I have a feeling it’s quite many.
Context provided all the clues needed, but I agree, text is treacherous.
I don't really care about proving my opinion right and I doubt people who want him out will lose their mind if he manages to win us big prizes. I'm ready to change my opinion whenever this happens. No problem for me.
See United's Treble winning season EPL point total of 79 points.
Clearly not But I don't want a childish argument on the internet either.
It sounds like we are singing from the same hymn sheet!
But even with it being open. We aren’t contending because?......
It’s okay. Sorry I ruined your little novel.
He has but with that in mind we have had a greater budget than Our rivals so it’s all relative don’t you think? I still don’t know why we needed a slow CB and a RB who can’t cross to play the “United way”. I’m pretty sure Conte knew why he needed Ashley Young though.
So do I.
Not comparable. The squad he took over was miles ahead of what Ole inherited, and the core of that team had played together for years.
Nope. Just facts.
My bad on City, indeed they finished 4th. Interestingly he still had Kompany, Sterling, Aguero, De Bruyne, David Silva and Fernandinho (not even mentioning the rest of the team that he used and sold) in that team. I can't, for the life of me, see how that "inheritance" is comparable to the team Ole got from Mourinho, but ok.
Far from it, far from it! We are in excellent position the way I see it.
But, but.. He relegated Cardiff! His was given a war chest of 7,5 million to keep them up! He fecked up real time. There was this player, who was injured a lot. Medel. He went on to better things at Inter. But Ole destroyed the spine of that fine team! The spine, Campbell, Marshall. Mutch and Caulker. They hardly played any fotball at top level after that! And it’s all down to Ole! Not those idiots who signed them and thought they where the new spine of England!
It’s not a debate just how I see it. You see it differently because you back the manager you’ll even make up absurd views such as thinking Jose left us like how he left and joined Chelsea and in your head it’s a fact.
Eitherway there’s plenty for and against. As far as I’m concerned he’s a novice doing an okay job which could have been done quicker and better under a more qualified manager. But to answer your point Inter Milan messed around with average managers for a while dipping in and out of the Champions league qualifications. They get a good manager and in one season they are title contenders.
It’s football not geometry. It doesn’t take 5 years to build success especially when the tools are available like United have.
Two top managers at the worst possible points in their careers.
Thats like saying let’s not signing another world class striker because we had Falcao and he never did nothing.
You’re forgetting that Jose got us CL football two years in a row and won us a European cup. After spending nearly £300 million the bare minimum we should expect is a top 4 finish from Ole.
Not really this isn't true at all.
Best job since Mourinho, since he finished second and won two actual trophies.
You're so negative. We should aim for 38 clean sheets. No ambition....
Well said.
Yep can't believe these people actually have me defending Mourinho but Ole's time here so far has nothing on him, not by any quantifiable or objective metric. Ole's accomplishments start where Jose's failures began. We could compare their failures/success and you'd see that statement is more literal than figurative. Jose was a failure for losing the FA cup final, losing to Sevilla and coming 2nd. Guess what Ole is supposedly a success for..
Me neither, even though I feel my BA in linguistics and communication might aid me in this particular one ;P
Please just stop, Ole Gunnar Solsksjaer, is not, and will never be, Jurgen Klopp, ever. EVER.
Imagine Ole managing Southampton
All right, but look at what happened after finishing second in the league. We finished third last season, if we can do that one more time it will be better then what Mourinho did in my book.
He's not saying that Ole is Klopp, he's just saying that their recent records are similar.
Interestingly Ole has massively outspent them all.
Mourinho in his second stint at Chelsea. Pelligrini did so too. Ranieri. Other than that, it can't be done.
Klopp made the CL final in the corresponding season. Their rise went beyond solidifying top 4 in consecutive years
Its been almost 5 months since Liverpool tore the league to shreds. This season will probably be a weird one but thats because the entire world in such an odd state.
Yes. Ole is Jürgen Klopp.
Oh so he’s not a high level manager? Is that what you are saying?
