Him coming back will be a nightmare more like. He’s the reason Rashford and co developed their couldn’t give a shit attitude and lost all sense of discipline.
If it's hypothetical I would go for Brian Clough. He never won it, he would be delighted to have another go and the interviews for the build up would be Mourinho on LSD * 100 and I miss him.
Keane would be hilarious with this team, it's true. At least it might give us all some light relief in a season of darkness.
Ye Keane gives it the talk but I don’t remember him doing to well with Sunderland and Ipswich.
am I the only person who sees the contradiction here??
Honestly, fans of today just want to take and offer little to nothing back in return. Former players and managers gave us joy, excitement, and a bucket full of life time memories, and yet we cannot show them a little respect in return.
Was Ruud any good as a manager. Wasn’t he at psv not long ago?
Rooney with Keane on the coaching staff maybe.
He was cowardly in some of his managerial decisions.
The thread is talking about an interim solution, not a permanent one. It's all hypothetical anyway because Ten Hag will see the season out but it wouldn't make sense to appoint someone who could get the permanent gig on the basis they beat City. The end of Ole's previous tenure here would ensure that wouldn't happen.

He took them from the bottom of the Championship to the Prem and kept them up the year after, so he did well.
Most successful United manager? Cause Klopp is by far the most successful with 12 wins and 11 losses. Conte has a plus record against him too.
Bad memory?
You're talking about a difference of 1 win and comparing a bad 12 games at Ole's worst to a horrendous 32.
Unfortunately Tom, some of the posts I've sent in have been ridiculed as
Those 12 bad games weren’t suddenly turning around, the shit show continued, he’s fortunate he got fired then so posters can still pretend he did ok.
Pffffft, you have to learn to toe the company line mate: It's "2nd place and one penalty kick from winning a European trophy".
Ammmm, you could argue that that PPG would have significantly decreased had he stayed on...
It’s mind boggling, you’ve got leftback here backing him because my point was just 12 games, but missing the fact that it was 12 games with no injury crisis; and no-one one watched the wretched side get twatted v Leicester, Liverpool and Watford can believe they were suddenly going to massively improve under Ole.
The funniest thing is: Had ETH made the EL Final last season and lost to Villareal on penos, it would 100% be used as a stick to beat him with (and rightly so). Yet, Ole is praised for bringing plucky Man Utd within a penalty kick of beating the mighty Villareal side that cost less than 1 Harry Maguire (if I remember correctly at the time). The agendas are strong on here.
But he was fun to watch I guess
That's the crux of it really. I desperately wanted him too. But, he's been wank and absolutely deserves to go. You won't find me dressing up his tenure as anything other than a failure. Even if he somehow wins the FA Cup, he still absolutely has to go.
Yep it was in the end and he got rightly fired, just like Ten Hag should have done months ago after spending £400m and making us even worse than Ole's worst.
Id rather you took a moment to reflect on why being asked to remain respectful towards a club figure that was part of the modern golden era under Fergie gets you so riled up that you had to post something to snarky.
True, better performance, better underlying numbers, better possession stats. Shame he wasn't bald or was hot name before we hired him.
Good thing the tables get decided on points.
But can get a 2nd and 3rd finish in the Premier League....that is a hell of a lot more than most.
Stone age, no wonder EtH still have some support.
