How would everyone rate him after what 8 games? I would give him an 8 out of 10. Yeah he has made some mistakes - 4-2-2-2 wasnt working. Subbing Greenwood, Villa collapse, some horrendous football. But in context of the team he inherited what more could he have done. No players in form apart from De Gea. Playing absolutely sht and getting absolutely battered by teams. No confidence. In fighting. Covid. And on and on. Its was as bad as you could possibly get.
He has dropped big names - Rashford, Maguire etc. He has handled the in fighting as best as anyone can. He is handling the want out players - Martial seems a good example. He has changed the system and not too stubborn to see it needs to be changed. He speaks honestly and openly and very clearly knows the game. He has given youth a chance - Elanga. He has even brought back Jones from the dead. We are in fourth place. Seriously what else could he do in 8 games after the state we were in?
Thats not saying there isnt lots of work to do. We are nowhere near the level we want to be at. But for his short time here I say he's been really really good.
