  1. Ole Gunnar Solskjær | 2021/22 Discussion

    Man alive! Football supporters are fickle. The press are a disgrace. Most of the stuff written in the press is click-bait and utter horse-s**t! But football supporters lap it up. It’s agents and pure speculation. OGS has a vision for MUFC that could take another 2 years to get right. He would...
  2. United’s next manager

    Rhyme, Its not sentiment. It's realism. This idea of a quick fix is nonsense. We had 'the chosen one' - it failed. We had 'the dutch master' - it failed. We had 'the special one' - it failed. The revolving door is everything that is wrong. We have had a succession of managers with appalling...
  3. United’s next manager

    A sense of reality...……... So, since SAF left, we have had Moyes/ Van Gaal/ Mourinho and now Ole. If you keep sacking managers you end up with a dis-jointed squad full of different managers types of players. Guess what? We've got that. Mourinho thinks his greatest achievement in football was...
  4. How much time is enough time to gauge Ole?

    I would suggest that if you look at Oles 3 signings compared to the previous 6 years, he’s absolutely nailed it. AWB, Maquire and James are the 3 best signings we’ve made since SAF left. More quality there than anything we bought under Moyes/VG or Mourinho. I’m on board but it will take time...
  5. How much of Ole's success is Mourinho's?

    I would like my tuppence worth here! If you look at the current team/squad, there are players that go back to SAF. De Gea, Smalling, Jones. Then there are other players brought in by the subsequent managers including Jose. From Herrera to Shaw to Paul Labile Pogba to Lukaku. There are players...
  6. [Poll] Next permanent United manager

    Let’s look at this objectively. If we had sacked Mourinho and appointed the next ‘preferred’ choice, let’s say Poch, could he possibly have done what Ole has? Could anyone have done what Ole has? Couple that with the talk of true tests against PSG/Liverpool/Chelsea/ City etc. Don’t you all...
  7. Time For Ole To Show His Mettle

    Fitness will play a big role going forward. Under Jose we were pedestrian due to the lack of speed in his play. We were always bottom of the stats. We haven’t played high intensity, pressing, counter attacking football in 6 years. We need to be fitter for longer periods, that will come with...
