I don't know about others but this year under Ole has been the most miserable for me since SAF by far.For some people Manchester United is like family. You don't choose your family. If you have a son that's not very bright academically or your sister is the worst player in her team, you don't relentlessly criticise them, insult them, or offer them up for adoption so you can improve the quality of your family. You just support them and try to take pride in their efforts.
If they don't succeed relative to others, fair enough, at least you did you best and there's still good feelings and memories without toxicity.
And if they do succeed, it's magic.
Life isn't always about long-term winning it's about finding happiness. That's how some United fans see the club. You can't rely on winning for years on end, you have to learn to enjoy the club for what it is and take the rough with the smooth.
Even worse than the Moyes year. By far. At least under Moyes, everyone could see he was out of his depth from day 1, he wasn't sugarcoated or absolved of all responsibility like Ole constantly is.
This is how it has gone since last season:
- We lose; "it's Mourinho's fault".
- We lose again;"it takes time, he gets the club though".
- We continue having dreadful results;"wait until after pre-season, for his coaching methods to shine".
- New season starts... We pick up where we left off, continue to have horrific results ; "It's Woodward's fault! He wasn't backed!".
- "You cant judge him yet. Give him a few more windows, suspending all expectations in the meantime, then judge him".
And repeat.
The performances & results have been utterly horrific throughout the majority of his time here.
It's like living in a constant nightmare.
He might be a nice guy, but it is what it is.
I take no pleasure in watching us become losers, happy to just take part in competitions. That is what we are becoming before my very eyes.
