His target was actually to “reboot the culture” at Utd.
He is not part of the reason the squad is thin. The players that left needed to go and he was not given replacements.
Even this last window we all knew we needed a striker and yet we had to loan a player from the Chinese league on the last hours of the window. I guess you think that was Ole’s plan to wait?
Yes we wanted Haaland it didn’t happen
What was your target? Think before you answer you could expose yourself as being clueless if you say challenge for titles or top 4.
You can see read between the lines in the post.
Less about league position and more about foundations for long term success.
Develop a system of attractive attacking football and produce a well drilled side with patterns of play to break down stubborn opposition.
Given the outlay on Maguire and AWB then also to improve considerabally the defensive stability of the side.
Phase out older members of the squad whilst testing/developing young talents
I had low expectations from Ole anyway but those were my target for him this season.
To his credit he has developed some of the younger players. However I see little imtpovement in our attacking play/approach or defensive stability.
If he gets top 4 whilst doing those things then great. If he gets top4 whilst playing how we have been all season only because Chelsea and others are just as crap... well no he wouldnt meet the target for me
I would think after Jose and looking at pool that we would learn by now that league position is not the only indicator of how the manager is performing. Especially early on
