He is shite
We should take Ronaldo back as well while we are at it

Agreed. I like Ole as much as anyone but anyone thinking he performed better than LvG or Jose needs to check themselves. It was damage control for the most part admittedly.Ole was disaster. Not just because of lack results. He set up casual mentality which stuck in and can't go away.
Also, this rewriting history about his football is becoming laughable. Except first few months his football was awful. Parking the bus and waiting on counter attack. Even Jose didn't do that (except in few bigger games). Failed Cardiff manager did it every week.
Biggest difference between him and Jose were in EL finals. While Jose prepared team perfectly for Ajax game and studied every single detail, remember what Ole did?
"We didn't prepare specially for Villareal. We are Man Utd and we play our style. I told players to enjoy themselves". What a plonker
We scored 68 goals in the league in Jose's second season. Which is shite.Does anyone remember our playing style under him? One chance a game? We made football look harder than we do now. Imagine going back to that. It's not better than what we have currently and players are arguably worse now than back then.
Going off his subsequent appointments, it's actually a lot worse than that. His Roma side were the only team in Europe I have actively avoided watching in the last couple of years. They were brutal.Does anyone remember our playing style under him? One chance a game? We made football look harder than we do now. Imagine going back to that. It's not better than what we have currently and players are arguably worse now than back then.
Jose took us to multiple cups and the highest point finish post Fergie. Every manager hits a rut when sacked but Jose wasn't getting spanked 4-0 to sides like Everton or Huddersfield or Watford at various points of his tenure. Ole ball was vasy overrated, what an atrocious comparison to a manager who actually achieved tangible successLows like Jose had. And LVG. And the guy who everyone that wanted Ole out for, has had?
What a shit post.
Haha sorry, no other word to describe it.Are you a bit pent up? Maybe you should do something to relieve yourself dude…..
Why is telling the truth horrendous? You want to say that any other manager did better?This thread is full of horrendous takes. But the most often repeated horrendous take is “best manager since SAF”. Which I’ve read a bunch of times. Is that supposed to be an impressive achievement?!
Bizarre how much you want to defend ten hags shit how yet speak like this about ole. A time when we actually scored goals.Ole was fecking wank. And this idea that his football was better is wank too. He had terrible lows at multiple times which some posters weirdly want to ignore.
The golden 3 month period he had when the Ole at the wheel chants were rampant just overrode what it was actually like.
So who was more impressive in your opinion so we may be illuminated please?This thread is full of horrendous takes. But the most often repeated horrendous take is “best manager since SAF”. Which I’ve read a bunch of times. Is that supposed to be an impressive achievement?!
Im not defending ten hags football this season. His football has been shit this season. What on earth are you on about?Bizarre how much you want to defend ten hags shit how yet speak like this about ole. A time when we actually scored goals.
The first season we had Pogba, Matic and Herrera in midfield was the last time our midfield looked functional. And we seemed to get something going between Pogba and Zlatan in the latter's first season, where from memory we created and squandered a lot of chances.Does anyone remember our playing style under him? One chance a game? We made football look harder than we do now. Imagine going back to that. It's not better than what we have currently and players are arguably worse now than back then.

Get in the feckin line, mate!I want to bang Scarlett
Exactly this.Actually would be fine with this. He is a proper manager for this club which Ten Hag clearly isn't.
Its like he said the first time only big managers can manage big clubs
My bad then calm down, must have you confused with someone elseIm not defending ten hags football this season. His football has been shit this season. What on earth are you on about?
Jesus, I can’t believe somebody could have endured his first spell and be making justifications for another one . Fecking mentalist.Jose took us to multiple cups and the highest point finish post Fergie.

Im not making justifications for it. I'm saying Ole ball was vastly overrated and when we racked up 81 points under Jose it wasn't with shit football.Jesus, I can’t believe somebody could have endured his first spell and be making justifications for another one . Fecking mentalist.
The standards at this club are well and truly non existent at this pointActually would be fine with this. He is a proper manager for this club which Ten Hag clearly isn't.

Arguing who might have been better than him is just two bald men fighting over a comb. They’ve all been varying degrees of not good enough. None of them should ever have a sniff of getting a job as United manager again.So who was more impressive in your opinion so we may be illuminated please?
You have a very short memory. It was most definitely with shit football. We had a brief period of time before he coached out LvG’ s passing team where we looked like a side who could keep the ball and also attack when necessary, after that it was pure Jose attrition-ball. I’d sooner take LvG back than that “Sevilla are a better club that United” arsewipe, feck no.Im not making justifications for it. I'm saying Ole ball was vastly overrated and when we racked up 81 points under Jose it wasn't with shit football.
Then he turned out not to be a big manager, using his own definition. Because he wasn’t good enough for United. Which has been confirmed since he left and turned out to not even be good enough for Roma.Actually would be fine with this. He is a proper manager for this club which Ten Hag clearly isn't.

It's just a more glamorised way of saying "best of a bad bunch". The same kind of terminology is also reeled out to try big up the "Ole era" as if it were actually successful.This thread is full of horrendous takes. But the most often repeated horrendous take is “best manager since SAF”. Which I’ve read a bunch of times. Is that supposed to be an impressive achievement?!
When many on the forum thinks Ten Hag is as good as Pep, I'd say yesThis thread is full of horrendous takes. But the most often repeated horrendous take is “best manager since SAF”. Which I’ve read a bunch of times. Is that supposed to be an impressive achievement?!
Who thinks Ten Hag is as good as Pep? Name names.When many on the forum thinks Ten Hag is as good as Pep, I'd say yes
He did alright at Roma - won them a European trophy (the only one in their history?) and got them to a final which he lost on PK. Given Roma's budget and the forced sales to avoid FFP I think it's a respectable record.Then he turned out not to be a big manager, using his own definition. Because he wasn’t good enough for United. Which has been confirmed since he left and turned out to not even be good enough for Roma.
