Love Fergie but oh my days
The players will be surely laughing at this whole situation.
This basically.
Everyone's worked up about the Pool defeat, calling for blood. We should be thinking about the next 3 years not what would happen in the next 3 games. Not listening to the mob and making good decisions is the reason the board exists.
We're in the situation we're in now because we awarded Ole the contract too early. Let's not make the same mistake again.
Hopefully he can turn it around and get buy in from the players. Another two losses and it's impossible to not sack him, replacement lined up or not.
Rowan Atkinson might as well be taking our training sessions the way this club's being managed.
Can't be long till Keane shows up
Seems entirely fair enough and pretty obvious!
I'm fairly sure Pogba knows he's not getting a higher salary anywhere else, even if available on a free.
He is an honorary life president. No idea why on Earth he is there. I mean, like Fergie he is close to 80 now, and has been detached from football for 20 years. What has he got to offer?
We've been very good against you over last few seasons but think the time has come for you to beat us again, in a style similar to those two wins at OT in Carabao Cup semis. The whole atmosphere around the team is as bad as it gets probably, hard to expect United beating Spurs, let alone City.
Fergie begging Ole to coach the players?
Does anyone think if he pulls a couple of results out of the bag he will survive? or has the damage been done?
He's honorary life president.
I think it's possible they'd rather Ole take charge of the difficult run than a new manager.
I am too at this point. I'd cry otherwise. We are not a serious football club.
What Pogba thing?
No idea... I wish Fergie just enjoyed his retirement and stayed out of this.
I don't know if you are dense or in denial. But I will humour you.
I never said we should appoint anyone, only that anyone on the list will still be an improvement on Ole. Let's not play semantics.
As for interim managers...
- What is Blanc doing now?
- Where is Hiddink?
- Rednapp for a couple of months.
- Fonseca is being discussed at Newcastle, he could do a job until the summer.
We are talking interim here, they don't need to be a world-beater, infact you don't want them to be. Someone to come in, achieve par and get us to the summer. Their purpose is to replace the current regime and hold hard till the summer achieving top 4, shouldn't be difficult with our squad.
As for permanent managers. I would go for an interim now and Ten Hag in the summer. We could go for Conte now who would be a big change in style but has always been successful.
I do feel we need to move away from the past and in that respect Conte could be good. I'm hearing SAF has been at Carrington this morning giving a speech, at this point Ole is a puppet and manager in name only.
I think Joel Glazer has the actual final say/authority.
But your point still remains - it’s a clusterfeck.
Ole is getting his dad to stand up for him.
These are really some of the most embarrassing moments for the club.

That kind of a post is exactly what I meant when I wrote some are turning on him.
SAF, Gill and Edwards. Oh to be a fly on the wall at Carrington.
I’m extremely curious about what SAF is saying to the players and staff.
James : failed.
AWB : a lot of fans are split on him.
Maguire : a lot of fans are split on him.
Bruno : success.
Cavani : success.
VDB : rotting on the bench.
Telles : rotting on the bench.
Sancho : on the bench, has been a flop so far.
Varane : good.
Ronaldo : a lot of fans are split on him.
With all the talk about his transfers as if they are some sort of a miracle in comparison to previous managers, only 3 of them have been definitive success so far. The rest either failed or a lot ot fans are split on them if they are good or not.
Its all a bit weird. SAF going down to the training ground.
Can imagine SAF speaking to the squad with Ole standing behind him, poking his head around him every so often saying "listen to the gaffer"

More than anything, it is just so depressing to see how the club is run. And right now, we actually have an incredible squad (in my opinion) but we all just have to watch it get squandered. Our main 3 rivals have 3 of the top managers in the world (you could make a case they have the top 3) while we just have no clue and no plan. It's clear that after 8 years of terrible decision making regarding coaches, upper management has learned absolutely nothing.
This is all looking so massively unhealthy.
Great. Another "This is for you, Sir Alex" post from Ronaldo on Instagram after playing in the 0-0 draw against Spurs this weekend.
Not sure what signals this sends the players if Fergie has to “protect” the manager in front of them. I’ll lose respect in my manager if he cannot stand up for himself and motivate his own team.
Sir Alex is playing as a CB now? fecking hell Maguire how shite can you be.
People should relax.
The board are not giving Ole three games to save his job. They have given themselves three games to get a replacement.
He will be sacked soon.

This is correct. Joel has the final say (although technically, Avram has the same power of him, but Joel seems to be the real one in charge). The question is who will he listen, and/or does he have an opinion of his own? Hard to think yes for the later considering that he admitted to struggle understanding the offside rule.
He is floundering.
This seems more like buying time to make a good appointment after being justified why he should be sacked.

This club is a ticking time tomb, it’s only a matter of time.
What a joke this is. How could the club behave in such an amateurish way... it's a fecking mess from top to bottom, a complete and utter shit show.
That’s exactly what’s going to happen.
Conte is certainly on the defensive end of the spectrum. He'll no doubt solidify the team and provide a tactical foundation, but I don't believe that would be the kind of tactical foundation the fans of this club want to see. I don't think he will utilise the players we currently have very well either. We're a top-heavy squad, and he's a manager who prefers bottom-heavy formations
And you say he wins stuff, will he? He's not going to stay here long due to his tendency to having hissy fits and walking after a couple of years, and I really don't see him overcoming Klopp, Pep, or Tuchel in that time.
He’s already been asking them how to fix his own problems so it’s clear they’ll have zero respect for him as a manager.
+Amad, Heaton, Pellstri, Bishop.
Ole looks like a kid who doesnt know what to do without his grandad in this whole situation. If I wouldnt laugh I'd cry.
