I can't believe people are laying this at Ole's door, and think a change of manager would solve anything.

Yes he's more than likely not the right guy, but he is so far removed from the main problem now he might as well stay until real change happens.
Sacking him will change absolutely nothing now. Though he must share his part of the responsibility, and rightly so.

If I were him, I would be giving Woody a mouthful for being too slow and inept during the transfer window.

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.
100% agree.

This idiot can't see what 99% of the fans can see. We all can see Rashford shouldn't be starting, Periera is a Burnley level player, Matic and Mata are finished at this level, Ashley Young dire, Lingard should be sold/got rid of..

These are all obvious things, but he was banging on about the squad being good enough to challenge and that he didn't need more signings. He is an idiot and results like this are all down to him.

Since that fluke in Paris we have been shite.

They should never have given him the job that quick. They should have let him finish the season before making it permanent... a Watford manager got sacked and he was on a better run than Ole his run.

Didn't know there was a match today, then when I knew I skipped second half. Gread decision.

This is the least I have ever been interested in United.
So in other words you are a glory hunter. I look forward to us winning again so we can welcome you back into the fold

Squads shocking but he is out of his depth. Even Howe can get his team playing half decent stuff.

Has a rule been forced upon him that he cannot make any subs before the 70 minute mark unless it's due to an injury? Every game we are a awful and he waits until the last 10 or 20 minutes to make changes. To not make any changes at half time against West Ham was criminal.

He will probably go eventually but it is just irrelevant. The position above him is the constant, 2 of the greatest ever managers couldn't make it work and ole doesn't have much of a chance. If we sack him and just sign some new guy that happens to be available we just Keep going round and round

Dont even know if changing the manager will work. Probably needs to get used to the dark ages. We kept a lot of the rubbish from last season, bought a few players. Its shameful but reality. Season over, bring on year 7 of rebuild.

Fair fecks to West Ham supporters. They support this guy chanting his name "Ole! Ole! Ole!" at every pass. Better than our fans. A classy bunch.

Not sure how much you can blame him with this squad. The only players from today's lineup I'd want for a team challenging for the title are DDG, AWB and Maguire. Rashford at a push.

Sacking Ole won't change anything.
Our team is just abject.
Mid table at the very best.
Matic
Mata
Young
Lingard
Fred
...
No manager in the world will get anything from the lot.
But not every manager would continue to start Matic, Mata, out of form Rashford etc. Time to go for OGS, probably

This is the weakest United squad I've ever seen. Almost every team we play have multiple players that would get into our first team.

It's crazy that a club of our size has allowed the structure above the manager to stay the same despite years of failure.
So true, we have spent hundreds and hundreds of millions on the squad yet half the West Ham eleven would walk into ours. Ole should not get away from all the blame but the fact is that we have been run like a shitshow for many years now and have the team to show for it.

Better players.
I thought we have had a team of deadwood for 6 years, that seems to be the ongoing trend over that time when the fans defend all our previous cautious playing managers when they have been failing miserably with results.

Despite the loss some very positive signs in that game.

Ole is clearly taking us in the right direction.

Poch would be mad to come here.

He isn't going to get the funds to buy in 10 players needed.
Transforming Spurs into a top team was and will be a much harder job than bringing United back to the top of Europe. We have the resources and foundation, we just need a good manager with a good philosophy.

Ole did a good job with regards to improving our defense, now we need to add more talent in the attack and midfield. Poch won’t need to bring in 10 players, just three top quality midfielder and attacker if Pogba stays.

Nobody who's fecking sane is talking about pushing for a title, it's about beating such shite as WHU or SOTON, perhaps putting more than one past fecking Astana.

1. Squad is simply shite. Lingaard, Pereira, Matic, Mata, Young should be nowhere near our starting line up
2. Why the flying feck do we need 10+ chances to score? We created plenty today, but it seems we cant even score in a brothel with
3. Ed and the Glazers can feck off. The way they have run the club is a disgrace
4. Ole seems to be out of his depth, but what manager could realistically come and improve this bunch of failures?

He's.clueless and doesn't know what to do in any unpredicted situation. You just have to look at his face and you will realize he has no clue.

It would be rude to make subs earlier. Just like it would be rude to park in your predecessor’s vacant parking spot.

I don't think Ole is the right man for this job. I think he has the potential to be a good "manager". In terms of being able to motivate players and select a team but there is a large enough sample to see that he is severely lacking tactically. This Man Utd project goes beyond simply motivating and coaching players. There is a chance however that Ole himself can improve with time but it is going to be a very painful process.

This needs to be here. Again and again, he's to blame for the transfer market as much as Woodward. They both destroyed the squad and reverted us back to where we were in LVG second season. They both need to be sacked asap. Blaming Woodward only without Ole is total nonsense.

See, one of many problems you guys have is that you feel you have the divine right to be the Manchester United of either the Bubsy or preferably Fergie eras. It's like most people are unaware that aside from that you had 90+ years of utter mediocrity (at best).

Exactly why do you think you should be above what you have been for the vast majority of your existence?
Because at this point we have more money than every team in the league bar City so going by that we should be a lot better than we are. But no there is no divine right for United or any other team to be successful.

As I said he’ll be gone before Christmas. Clueless tactically and shows no authority. He talks a good game to the press but in reality we all know he’s out of his depth. Another manager wasted and poor decision from the club to hire him.
