Sack. Even if he is shit coach, he should at least push the team - the way he sits there is awful to watch. Should go asap, so we have some time to wake up with new coach.

Bad line-up choice also. Pogba should play higher up the pitch (should not play anywhere at the moment), there are much better options at the moment (Fred, Van de Beek). Let's see if he has the balls to drop him second half.

We look a team that is short of match fitness. Looking at our lack of preseason it was always going to catchup with us and we look like we’re a week short of it. Can’t blame ole for that.

thin squad that’s being exposed.

Some here will talk about kneejerk reactions but the reality is this whole Ole experiment has been one kneejerk reaction after another the moment he was given the job permanently,

We were never in the title race to begin with! All we wanted this season was to see some progress, in our style of play, to get us closer to the top! No united fan expected us to be challenging city and pool. The rate we're going, we'll be lucky to finish 6th ffs

How much preseason did the others have? Will City use this excuse?

We look a team that has no formation, game plan, tactics, pattern of play. Just 11 individuals going out there and doing there own thing. That is on the manager

No one expects us to win. But we're looking to be hundred miles behind the top teams. Then again, most people here seem to going by some guide book which states when you can officially turn into a title challenger.

The PSG match feels like a curse. We rushed a decision after promising we would have a through recruitment process.

Could you imagine if we sack him if champions league is no longer attainable? Anyway, Ole is making a poor Brighton team with a poor home record look like Barcelona. I still believe we will win, but the performance has been bad so far. No support for MMM and lack of interplay and ball retention is glaring.

The fact that we could be out of it after 2 games just shows that the manager isn't up to the standard.

Pogba isn't fit, ole knows this and he has a replacement on the bench. That's poor management.

He'd really, really help himself getting Pogba off the pitch and giving Fred a run.

Arguably, Fred is a better player in the role that we are asking the two of them to play, but especially when Pogba is in this mood/this unfit it's like playing with 1 midfielder.

I do wonder with the lack of news/progress on Pogba's contract and the knowledge that a player like VDB would likely be £15-20m more expensive after selling the former for £60-70m; whether we've actually already replaced Pogba just a year early (giving VDB a year to settle).

Would make a lot of sense as strengthening the area of the pitch we're most well stocked whilst struggling to match valuations of more key areas seems strange otherwise.

We need a new manager as soon as possible. But who can we get? I don't want Poch.

Well most teams outside the top 6 played 4 preseason games. City were good last week because they have a better squad. Look at wolves last week. Very disjointed

The team is unfit, unmotivated, lacking cohesion and not well drilled. Greenwood, Slabhead and AWB all had problems over the summer. Maybe one or two of the above happens but all together its a mountain of issues and evident its caused by Ole or the players. Based on the comments from Ole in regards to the players needing a rest you have to say he is culpable. Its almost as if he has put the players having a holiday above the success of the season. A weird idea to have considering the downtime between March and June!!!

Starting to look how it did under van Gaal and Mourinho, isn’t it? Very sour mood clouding the team, average sides and managers outplaying us etc etc.

He’s fraud of the manager with few purple patches here and there. Can’t believe so many reds can’t see it.

We will sack him after giving him 400-500m and next to no progress. Then we will start again

What's the excuse now? You can't complain about the squad when you're outplayed by Palace and Brighton.

Going to be a long and very divided season until we do what all of us know will eventually happen.

Very painful to watch, we got the win which is what matters, but we were bailed out by a solo effort from Rashford and like 6 efforts off the woodwork, massively outplayed. It's all looking very Cardiff and Molde, but thankfully we have the better individual players which has saved us many a times, he's out of his depth, his substitutions should tell you enough.

We thoroughly deserved to be 3 or 4 down against Palace. And deserve to be 4 or 5 down to Brighton today.

Two of the worst sides in the league.
