Lots of Ole threads but I think this needs one of its own because it’s something that’s been brewing all season and with the Rashford news there needs be some serious questions asked.
The main issue I have is Ole’s transparency with telling us about our injured players. Either two things are happening, either he’s lying and downplaying injuries to the fans or he doesn’t know about the extent of our injuries (yet Mr Winter and other journos seem to) now whichever way you answer that question, Ole looks bad, really bad.
Martial, Shaw, Pogba, McTominay and now Rashford. Players who have all had long term injuries this season yet Ole has come out and provided incorrect return dates for all of these players. All of these players Ole made light of their injuries yet we didn’t see them for months. If it happens once fine but it’s multiple times.
Why is he stood in front of a camera telling us Rashford is out for a few weeks yet there’s reports of 3-4 months. Just what the feck is going on?
Secondly the failure to take a stand against Maguire and Rashford. So Maguire is limping like feck against Wolves but apparently is kept on because Maguire told the manager he was fine.
Then we hear Rashford is telling Ole he wants to play on, despite the fact Ole knows he’s carrying knocks. Who’s the manager here? Why are injured players telling the manager when they can and can’t play or be subbed off?
All of this is really really bad and just doesn’t paint Ole in a good light. Because it’s either he doesn’t know the extent of our injuries(yet journalists do) or he’s being untruthful and is risking injuries to our key players.
