Starting to think Ole needs to be moved upstairs or however we’d spin it. It’s clear he isn’t getting the best out of the players he has available.

Sign Ronaldo - struggle to find him.
Sign Varane - no clean sheet in 10.

You could give him prime Barcelona and he wouldn’t get them playing good football. He’s done brilliantly in turning the club around, but he isn’t a coach.

That Everton team wasn't even at its best today. No Calvert Lewin or Richarlison and we struggle to draw against them.

In hindsight, signing Sancho over a DM ruined the season.

Thought we played well first half, seemed to change when Martial went off, although I thought Sancho did well. We’re very susceptible to counters, surely that’s something they can work on though.

Not good enough really though, lucky to draw in the end. Be nice to have Maguire and Rashford back after the break at least.

Wide open at the back, lethargic in midfield and toothless up front. Again.

Imagine having aspirations for the title and you can’t keep a clean sheet against any of Leeds, Newcastle, Villa and Everton. At home.

Just please sack him and put us all out of our misery.

Weekend fecking ruined again

All over again.

Can’t wait for the excuses. Bullshit bingo time.

Everton are a good side

We played in midweek and it showed

We gave away a sloppy goal when we were in control

We have a break now and we’ll build momentum after the international break.

Been Ole In until now. That was the last straw. Fire him. Now. That's it.

At least we have two weeks respite now.

Looking forward to the laundry list of excuses of why we can't beat a depleted Everton at home.

Fells like shit just going around waiting for us to mathematically lose out on our ambitions before making the change that everyone should be seeing is necessary at this point.

But I suppose if we had a CDM we'd blast these 5-0, or something.

It’s really worrying how the majority of games feel like epic struggles to get results under OGS. This type of game does happen for the team that goes on to win the league, but not this often. Even last season it felt like we had to struggle to get wins.

I’m not saying we should be blowing teams away by 3-4 goals every week but I can’t remember the last time we effectively and efficiently controlled the game despite only winning 1-0 or 2-0. That’s the type of games we should be seeing now. The score doesn’t look excellent but the opposing team never got near us and never did you feel we would be troubled.

These BT pundits chatting shit. Everton did absolutely nothing for a point. We gifted it to them. Show’s our incapability more than anything.

They should be analyzing our disjointed and uninspiring performance.

Deserved result at the end. Pathetic.

Absolute horror show again. Everytime the clock gets to 60mins, I never feel that the next half an hour will yield anything. So if the opposition score, we are basically done.

Honestly, I'm Ole out now. Guy cannot coach more can he set up a team to consistently create changes.

Just watch City Liverpool and cry.

Same shit different game. No change to how the game was approached, no response to how the game is going except for like-for-like substitutions.

I could coach this side better. Awful again.

Why are we so much worse than last season? And don’t say “manager” because it’s the same bloody manager we had last season.
Because last season he had a pretty limited squad so we Only played one way. This season with quality additions the manager doesn't know how to use them and we're still playing the same way which is shit on a stick football so yes it's the bloody manager

Team selection again, Ronaldo scored 5 goals and dropped to the bench. Martial has been terrible and he starts out on the wing.

The midfield needs Pogba regardless of what we all think of him.

Ole showed a total disregard to Everton who are a good side.

Serious question marks over Ole now for me, he's been given a side capable of far better than this.

Even taking Cavani off when he was working so hard for the team was a strange decision.

Can someone start a 'Why can't we keep clean sheets any more?' thread please?

We were bloody lucky Davies bottled that chance at the end and layed it off. We should have lost.

Getting tired of this shit. Don't want him sacked yet but he's not helping himself. home record is dire and our defence is leaky. Again not good enough.
Some people will come around later than others. It took me a while as well but it's now clear as day he has to go and more so with every passing game. I don't know if with the squad we have things can get bad enough like with lampard, but with him in charge things will never be good enough.

We should just copy and paste any postxmatch thread apart from the Leeds game.

Every. Single. Team knows how to beat us, get at the midfield, and Ole is trying nothing to change it!

We will make no progress with this manager any more.

Again, dominant but no end product. Probably slightly unlucky if we're honest but still frustrating.
Once it clicks we are in business. Those morons wanting the likes of Conte and his negative football beggers belief!

I woke up very early today, and the day went so slowly because I was so excited to watch United play.

I've been a fan of Ole, but I'm starting to lose my patience. Signing Sancho, Varane and Ronaldo... 3 world class players. We should not be losing to Villa and drawing Everton at home!!

Understand Ronaldo's frustration.

We really need to do something about our vulnerability from our own corners, it keeps costing us big time.

Our finishing was awful today too, we should have been out of sight but gave Everton hope by letting them stay within touching distance.

Both their goals (though one offside) there was absolutely no one near the ball. Fred continually makes mistakes that lead to goals. He’s so weak on the challenge that even if he makes a tackle the opponent normally remains with the ball. He has to be dropped after that performance. And this is one of my big issues with Ole. There is no punishment for bad performance. Same players start or come on every week regardless how bad they are in prior games.

And he decides this was the game to bring fresh legs on early. When we are winning 1-0! Ole has to go. We have such a good opportunity to do something this season but he’s holding us back now. Get him gone!

Great game for the neutral, suck as a Utd fan. Ole should be happy to pick up a point considering he lost last week. Ole probably secretly celebrating a point with a "top" side. I still cannot understand why Fred is pick week after week. Why he cannot sense danger to kick the ball out or bring down Gray? Our midfield contribute nothing to attack, doesn't make run into the box. Ole plants 2 midfield to protect the back, these 2 players keeps passing the ball the opponents, I swear there is a fast break everytime that happens. I cannot believe VDB can be any worse than those 2.
