23 points from the last 18 matches I think.

Your goose is well and truly cooked Ole. I'd say he was found out to be tactically inept, but we all realised that from the very beginning.

We made three good signings but that doesn't change the total lack of ambition in attacking play. He has no plan to build a good attacking side. It's all counter counter counter and rely on headless chicken pace merchants (not including James in that, he's great).

Would be surprised if Ole lasts till May. Looks utterly clueless and CEO doesn't look happy.

I reckon I could do a similar job if I was made the manager of Manchester United.

Would not mind him being replaced by Christmas.

He has a lot of the right attributes to succeed here but it's work experience at this point. Running players into the ground/treatment room is plan A B and C

So for those saying that its obvious to see our style, what the feck is it other than being shit?

5 fecking goals in almost 6 games. Bored to death watching this garbage.

To add to that, talks about giving youth chances but lets Mata and Matic walk out into matches they have been out of their depth in for years, rather than play Garner or Chong. No bravery in his selections.

And don't even get me started on the in-game management and subs.

Ole is not cut for it. However as long as those leeches and Woodward are at the helm, nothing is going to change no matter who manages us. We will remain like this.

Sack Ole and pray to God the Glazers sell off, that's the only way I can see us getting back to top.

Too bad none of the attributes are related to management and tactics. If we wanted someone tactically inept but capable of temporarily lifting the mood of the squad, we should have just hired some clown instead.

Just like Moyes, he's just a waste of time & money.

Just like Moyes he's out of his depth and knows nothing tactically.

Both were awful appointments even before they were hired. That's what sentimentality does to you.

At least LVG & Mourinho had tactical nous & they knew what they were doing.

I honestly can't believe people are on his back when he went into this game without Martial, Pogba, Shaw & Greenwood and then Rashford goes off injured.

Do you really think Ole didn't want extra midfielders or strikers in the transfer window?

How can anyone expect Ole to win with the players available to him today.

There’s no fire from him. We can hark back to the old days but Fergie would be severely pissed off.

Squad is simply not good enough. We have no strikers and missing so much in midfield. Even West Ham has better creative midfielders than us.

This is just terrible. We play such bad football with no clue whatsoever how to attack. I'd say we are the most boring team in the league to watch right now.

Seen reports that Tuchel might be his replacement. However, I hope our board makes the right call and appoint Pochettino. Tuchel is a great manager with a good philosophy, but Pochettino is a better manager.

If this continues, Ole might be our worse manager post Sir Alex. Who would have taught that we would find someone worst than Moyes?

There is no game plan from him. This has been evident for a while with a number of players available to him. He is too rigid in his tactics and we are so easy to play against. We don't even look great defensively.

His faith in Rashford is what’s going to be the end for him.

We couldn’t score in a brothel.

I look at Ole and all I see is David Moyes.

Expression, demeanour, bland quips, just generally milling around looking totally clueless and out of his depth.

For a manager who loves to give it large about young players, he's showing a tremendous amount of loyalty to all of our oldest and slowest players.
It's a sham, just like the "high pressing" football he apparently wants us to play.

Should be called out for his failings. The squad is his, the tactics are his, the results are his. Neville won’t dare criticise him, but we’re going backwards since the Paris result & I have zero confidence in Solskjaer getting things right.

It won't stop the bloodlust but this is true. Nevilles been saying it all 2nd half. 900m spent and this is the best team we can put on the pitch.

The fault is entirely on the managers and Woodward that have built this squad of players
