Can’t get any consistency going at all, it’s just not good enough.

Apparently we’ve had a ‘good winter period’ with 2 wins and 2 loses.....fecking joke.

I’ve backed ole all the way. But I must admit watching that tonight, was utterly terrible. We cannot keep “bouncing back” and being so inconsistent; we where utter shite tonight and made arsenal look like Barca in first half

Wait until we knock 3 past Norwich, and suddenly people will start to see his vision. This is delusion of the highest order.

I'm sorry but Ole looks gormless, sitting there staring into space. If I was a player worth my salt I'd get the feck out of this club, quick. He's here to stay and quote me on this, we'll go nowhere quick with him.
Gormless and clueless. As are all of his assistants as well. They inspire absolutely no confidence that they can do anything from the touchline to turn around a game.

And of course the players duly follow suit on the pitch. Those last 20 minutes of nothingness were soul sapping.

He is probably the worst manager in the league. We can not keep him beyond this season. Moyes was better than this.

They have a new manager, new tactics and we're missing Paul and Scott. You seriously expected we would go to the Emirates and beat a stronger Arsenal side than the one that played against Chelsea?? Do some of you think we're already Barcelona?
Not Barca, but I am sure some of you think we are relegation fodder when you suggest an Arsenal team, who have done feck all whole season, are supposed to be better than us.

Ole likes to tinker as if he is Alex. Is Williams injure? Is Pereira injure? Is Greenwood injure? Why does he drop William for Shaw and Lingard for Pereira? Greenwood is ready so why not settle for a fixed XI? Trying to be clever and it backfired on him badly.

He was taught a lesson in football by an assistant manager. This is his level, his highest level is the Norwegian league. In England he should be nothing more than a 3rd assistant coach like Carick is now. He does not deserve to manage the greatest club in England and one of the biggest in the world. He should respect himself and resign, but I doubt it. He has no self respect left in him. It is bout hanging there as long as he can.

He's nothing more than a yes man.

He wants to please the board, Woodward, his players, Pogba, his agent, the fans. He just lets out nice sounding soundbites like a scented fart every now and then to keep everyone on side.

I cannot wait until he's gone at the end of the season. Nice guy, not United manager material.

I think anyone would look gormless with that midfield. We"re witnessing the end of some united careers this season.
Lingard, Matic, Mata all out in the summer. Pereira hanging on.

I hope this season will also mark the end of Ole's career as United manager.

There is no polite way of saying this but as a manager ole is horrible and his record shows this. All the players look crap and its on the manager and coaches. You have to be very stupid to hang onto a manager with such a poor record any longer. Im starting to think Woodward isn´t just inept in his role but he is a moron that just wont quit for betterment of the club on his own volition. Stupidity reigns supreme at the top of Manchester United.

Can't disagree with this more.

As for Ole, I really want to back him but I still don't see any sort of patterns of play that tells me he can sort out our inability to break down teams.

Also, starting Lingard over and over should be a sackable offense.

:lol: We are destined to become AC Milan of the PL. Stupid fans living in some alternate universe are as much to blame as our useless board. Ole would have already been sacked months ago from any club in the world having any sort of standards. We boast how we are the biggest club in the world but feck me we act like we are a polar opposite of it. We are a laughing stock, rival fans pray we stick with Ole for years to come as they know he is inept. But we are fine hiding behind this rebuilding job, can’t judge manager until he got 3 years crap.

clueless, toothless and inoffensive. It's nice to have a cheerleader around the place making everyone feel good, but feck me we need a proper coach.

You do realize they dont have the same manager and we're missing all our creativity and spark in the middle right?
How are we expected to go to the Emirates and win against a very motivated Arsenal side with a much stronger team than the one that played against Chelsea?
Yet this team made us look like a non league club. Ffs they have the same players that lead to 1 win in 16 games not Pep's Barca

Solskjaer is being found out like he was at Cardiff

Why were we not expected to win? Are we Manchester United or Cardiff City ?
Bookies gave Arsenal around a 38% chance of winning (similar to us). That's 62% chance we don't win the game and the inevitable abuse to follow here.

This performance is solely on the players. They’ve been absolutely trash today.
Granted. But this doesn’t look like a team that knows how to attack as a unit, how to respond to different game situations, how to build up play and overload in dangerous areas. A lot of that was painfully apparent today and the buck rests with the club for the poor recruitment and mishmash of player profiles alongside Solskjær’s failure to implement the principles that would have seen a different response to falling behind.

Who's fault is that? We should have replaced Herrera, Matic, Fellaini, Lingard. We knew at the start of the season that we had issues but according to Ole everything was fine and he was happy with the squad. Would you like quotes to back this up? He chose to spend 80 million on fecking Maguire when we have 40 fecking CB's. He could have signed Tielemans and I'm sure a couple of other decent midfielders but he chose not to. If a person stands on a rake and the shaft breaks his fecking nose in the process, I'm not going to be sympathetic towards him -- I'll criticise that person for being a fecking idiot, for not having foresight, for not being to see the obvious. Sorry, the midfield thing doesn't fly. If you choose to believe it, fine. But frankly it's a shit excuse.

I’m sorry, just changed my vote to sack ole. I’ve always been in the camp of give him time, the right players etc but I’ve realised that even with a new striker, midfielder etc, we won’t be getting anywhere. I think he’s out of his depth here and struggling to motivate his players. Clueless when it comes to tactics. I’m sorry and it breaks my heart to say it, but he needs to go

I'd happily pay for his one-way ticket back to Molde, private charter if he so desires. That's how much I want him gone.

Ive made up my mind today. Ole out. Artreta has had a couple of sesions with his team and they already look like They have an idea of what they want to do. The contrast today was stark. While we opted for hoofball They were passing the ball cutting us open.

Like I've always said, Ole is gonna get sacked, one way or the other. It's all about being patient. Starting Lingard should reason enough to do it.
No chance. Ole will be here next season no matter what.

It feels like battle lines are drawn between two camps here, but there is room for discussion and healthy debate.

It hurts to lose playing like that and it hurts to see the club where it is. People are hopeful that better players will push things along, but the club are miles off in terms of performance.

There is a tendency to underrate these players because of their performances under Mourinho, but we can see the same zombie football creeping in at Spurs already.

These players are much much better than what performances are suggesting. No signs of consistency after almost a year is the largest proof that there is no system and a coaching staff that should be an embarrassment to a club the size of United. Full of uninspiring names with nothing careers.

Levy got praised for running Spurs the right way, when in reality he lucked into a manager who got a squad playing well above themselves for 5 years. We are seeing now that those players maybe aren’t as good as we believed (it helps that a lot of them are English, and by nature, bigged up by the media)

Not convinced that Fenway did anything special either, bar hire the right man for the job.

Poch is a guy who is available now, has proven that he has a style of play and a system and can get players playing above themselves and consistently qualifying for the CL. That’s what we need right now. Recovery and consolidation.

Who knows if he can go beyond with better resources and a way to refresh his squad as he sees fit. It should be an exciting prospect.

We are making a mistake and I’m really concerned. We are going nowhere under Ole and wasting years of some very valuable young talent.
