Exactly this! Some really have their heads buried in sand.Weird indeed, not like the team has been letting down the fans for 9 straight years and serving shit regularly on the pitch. How dare the fans don't like these players ?
Can't believe people are still trying to paint Ole as anything but an unmitigated disaster. The worst manager the club has had since the 70s, and someone who it was painfully obvious was never good enough.Yes it is, considering he spent hundreds of millions to improve on the guy before, who finished 2nd with better points and won sone cups.
Ole was an absolute car crash and set us back years. Semi finals mean feck all.
depends who leaked it. I'm sure Ten Hag wouldn't mind this being leaked. Makes him seem quite goodGuess the leak thing didn't work did it
Doesn't mean it's coming from the dressing room.Guess the leak thing didn't work did it
Not every story coming from the club is a dressing room leak. There will always be stories coming from the club, that wasn't the issue.Guess the leak thing didn't work did it

Division in the fanbase needs to stop now Ten Hag is here. I remember being told I'm not a "true mancunian red" because I wanted a better manager in instead of Ole. This kind of dialogue is self destructive. We've got the man we want, and he has a style and plan we can get behind. I'm excited to see us build with him.
Don't agree, the Ronaldo signing screwed Ole. End of last season there was alot of positivity we were playing some good stuff the team was full of confidence.Yes it is, considering he spent hundreds of millions to improve on the guy before, who finished 2nd with better points and won sone cups.

Shows how crap we've been for 10 years. Didn't win anything and ultimately left the club at its lowest ebb in modern history. Anyway, this is the ETH thread, and one we should be positive about. That failed project is thankfully behind us all.Don't agree, the Ronaldo signing screwed Ole. End of last season there was alot of positivity we were playing some good stuff the team was full of confidence.
It looked like there was hope, ole wanted to shift us into a more progressive 4-3-3 have us playing and pressing higher up the pitch, convinced cavani to stay another year so he had that hard working CF to help. The Bam suddenly the club drop Ronaldo on him a player compleatly unsuited to what Ole wanted to work towards and the circus and the ego that comes with him and the results were there for all to see.
I'm not saying Ole was some great manager but he certainly was knowhere near as bad as people like you are trying to make out, was it perfect? no of course not but it was the best iv seen us play post fergie, by far the best.
Didn't the guy before spend hundreds of millions too?Yes it is, considering he spent hundreds of millions to improve on the guy before, who finished 2nd with better points and won sone cups.

Is this finally it? A proper manager.
Swap “spend” for “waste” and you’re both right.Didn't the guy before spend hundreds of millions too?
I like all of this
That didn’t happen at all. The season we ended up second we finished in awful form, with huge doubts about whether we were actually progressing under Ole. Smashed by Liverpool, beaten by Leicester, drew with Fulham and then that horrible EL final where Ole seemed completely out of his depth, not making any subs or tactical changes until it was far too late.Don't agree, the Ronaldo signing screwed Ole.

The amount of fines can go towards a new striker.First test is Ronaldo , he is already 4 days late for training.
I know it’s not always simple but it’s really piss poor and seems to happen every season.The guy wanted all the new players in by the start of the tour. He's only got a (backup) LB in. More of McFred next season?
We were atrocious under him. The absolute worst. You're entitled to your opinion of course but Ole was wank for the majority of his tenure.Don't agree, the Ronaldo signing screwed Ole. End of last season there was alot of positivity we were playing some good stuff the team was full of confidence.

Yeah that's nonsenseWe were atrocious under him. The absolute worst. You're entitled to your opinion of course but Ole was wank for the majority of his tenure.
Yeah, it's really not.Yeah that's nonsense
If you still think he's worse than 2013 Moyes then there's nothing else to say really, you are titled to your 0.02Yeah, it's really not.
Thought the midweek drinking days were long gone from professional footballers.No alcohol? Shouldn’t that go without saying?
Correct. Ole spent hundreds more and with 3x more time ended up the same way. No actual coaching either, by the way, so the players regressed if anything.If you still think he's worse than 2013 Moyes then there's nothing else to say really, you are titled to your 0.02

BMI would strike me as an odd measure to use in this context.
He was granted time off by the club.First test is Ronaldo , he is already 4 days late for training.
ETH gave the board a deadline. And if they fail, will give them another deadline. ETH doesnt mess aboutThe guy wanted all the new players in by the start of the tour. He's only got a (backup) LB in. More of McFred next season?
it’s widely known to be outdated so I doubt it’s true.Tweet

It was reported when we signed him that he was viewed as a back up and eventual successor to Luke Shaw. That said he’ll still get plenty of opportunities to play and with Shaw’s injury record he could find himself first choice before long.Why is Malacia constantly called a backup LB?
