He’s seemingly had a reprieve, and now has to prove he can turn results around. If he blows it next couple of games, that has to be it.
We've been down this route before with Ole. I have just accepted that he will be here till the end of the season, as there is feck all ambition at this club and that will only change when the fans show their discontent, but that won't happen with Ole being in charge as he is a safety net to the Glazers. We all can't turn on a club legend.

He's had too many reprieve's. Every season come November he is under pressure, its a clear trend. We start off with 2 good games, followed by some very bad ones, he is fighting for his job, reverts back to Ultra defensive formations, gets a few okay results and then as things start to look up, the team becomes complacent, results at the end of the season become bad, we win nothing.

Its the same every season under Ole.

I hope the press really go for him and question his childish tactics on Sunday.
The thing is, he was so naive that everyone knew what the team would be then he showed his hand further by saying" We're at home and we're going to play on the front foot!"

OLE OLE OLE I LOVE YOU
What will he say in the presser?

Repeat old gems like…

“Trophies are just a ego thing” and “You don’t need tactics in football. All you need is pashion and dezzirre”

or some new gem today like

“Goal posts should be removed from the pitch. This way, there won’t have any winners and losers in football. Just play the game with pashion and dezzire until the players are tired”

Yup and now consider the incompetent board hadn't even sounded out a replacement till after Liverpool.

We have the same people that thought Maguire was worth a world record fee deciding if Ole is good enough to challenge.

It is bad to say this but if Ole plays his Faves in a 4231 tomorrow and Utd lose I am going to laugh. I would prefer Utd win but nothing would surpise me.

He will play his favourites, the players that aren't playing are the ones leaking stuff.

I don't know why it made me laugh when he said of course he's the right man, he used to play here for years. Manager for three years with virtually nothing to show for it, but it's okay, because he "knows what's going on in this club"
This is what happens when you give someone like Maguire the captaincy. Dude- you aren't good enough for this club.

Don't know about that, the Faves are leaking goals. Utd and Ole are so excruciating right now. Reminds me of an operation I watched on my foot with a local anesthetic.

It does make me laugh that even his own metric betray him. He spouts passion and desire yet we have one of the lowest running and pressing stats in the league.

He can't even conjure that now.

Such a badly run club. Delaying the inevitable. I don't care if we win the next 10 games on the trot, he's not good enough. When will these numbnuts understand that simple fact? "Just enjoy yourself, lads" FC

Keep digging your own grave, Harry. Although I’m not sure I expected him to say anything else. He’s not going to call him a clueless idiot is he?

What do you expect him to say? The Captain's job is to steady the ship in these circumstances and put a media storm to bed where they can in these situations. He's said the right things and I don't actually think he genuinely believes that inside. As do most the players.

Yeah he looks distraught. I wasn't expecting this. The press have been really easy on him too
They've gone easy on him since day 1 to be honest. I'm amazed the Europa League Final did not result in more of an inquisition of the manager.
