Everyone leaves but Mike Phelan will be ManUtd coach forever.Pert is his number 2. So that is another couple of new coaches to come in.
Did they hire Woodward also?Why did Ipswich hire the man who single-handedly destroyed Manchester United?
KMc = Kill many childrenGlad he’s out of the club. Obviously a bad person
Can you provide some insight as to why you think that?Best thing to happen both to ManUtd and also him, good luck although I don't rate him. Ipswich is his level tbh and that speaks loudly about our setup
Not his biggest fan, far from it, but I hope he does well
Is this a meme now?
Don't know what you expect really, but that's my opinion. I don't rate him as a coach because I saw consistent coaching failures in our game specifically during his time as first team coach. I think he is, paradoxically, overrated but mainly underqualified for this level of the game, so one or two divisions down the ladder might be a more fitting place for him to develop his career.Can you provide some insight as to why you think that?
Until I read this I thought Ipswich were in the championshipHope he does well.
He was a great coach at youth level. The issue was that the step from youth level to the first team of United is very steep. So many big names and egos, some players like Ronaldo older than him. It was always going to be tough.
At the age of 35, he needed an environment with less scrutiny to hopefully grow as a coach and develop as a manager.
He's very young still for coach, so you never know. With his experience at United, he will command instant respect at Ipswich. Something which he struggled to nail down at United (if reports are to be believed).
You never, if gets 2-3 promotions in a row, has them playing good football, he might be able to manage a Premier League club and have a Pochetino/Potter type of trajectory. Who knows, in 5-6 years he could be a candidate to manage us.
Exactly. None of us have a fecking clue how good he is. Obviously that won't stop a few people from talking like they're somehow privy to what goes on at Carrington.I love people that are so confident that him moving on is a great thing, like they have any idea about the inner workings of the club and what he brings to the table.
Who's gonna be in ralfs ear all game from now though.
