What’s he going to do? Drop Ronaldo, Pogba or both? Play only McFred from now on?
He’s going to resign.
Maybe he's the one that has to give? Maybe we need a proper coach?
That's what I thought too.
Edit: Would certainly cement his "it's not about me, it's all about the club". But most people would want that contract paid out, understandably.
Ya, give resignation.
I think we all agree on that. The club won’t do anything though.
New manager is going to need to be backed in the transfer market. Will be interested to see if the Glazers will do it.
The only thing that “has to give” is you handing in your resignation letter Ole. Do the honourable thing now please.
He's talking about playing Pogba and Bruno together.
I don’t ever want this club to appoint and ex-player
purgatory
purgatory
Hopefully we start playing one of Pogba or Bruno, start playing 4-3-3, drop AWB and maybe even Maguire once Varane is back.
Damn, I want him out but it's just sad things are going to crap, similarly to how it happened with Mourinho's final season.
If Liverpool is the game that sacks him, it'll be peak irony. What a shame.

Meh, buying more time to do something revolutionary which will require our patience.
Bizarre statement unless he is hinting about his resignation.
He'll drop Ronaldo and it'll be the right decision.
They have backed each and every single manager. The problem has been a lack of coherent spending.
Yes, your resignation Ole
I think he's saying that he and his coaching staff have no idea what to do. It sounds like a man who has finally realised he's out of his depth. Quite sad really
At this point I am not even sure if he knows what 'Somethings gotta give' means
Can't play Ronaldo, Pogba and Fernandes. There is no system that can accomodate all 3, regardless of manager. I would imagine that's what he's referring to.
Yes, distinct lack of quality in the current one
Agreed. He is going to drop both Ronaldo and Pogba. He also talked about more legs. Pretty clear in my opinion.
Do you think Ole wasn't backed this summer? Varane, Sancho, Ronaldo!?
Adding it to a squad with a 90m Pogba, 200m defence, 50m Fred etc etc.
This isn't a bargain bin set of signings here.
Maybe he needs to give up his revolutionary idea of playing with no midfield.
The audacity to come public and say that after a horrible performance
The switch has always been with you Ole. It's just that you are so incompetent that you just don't know how and when to use it.

All the sign points to that.
Huh? Tbh if this is purgatory then what were our last 3 managers, hell? This has nothing to do with being an ex-player, simply that he's not good enough to manage this squad.
Pogba will be dropped I imagine. What a manager, extend his contract now.
I’m unsure what he means other than being certain he isn’t resigning
"We need to look at the whole set up and balance of the team"??????
You've had nearly 3 years to get this right...what an embarrassing comment to make. So out of his depth it's untrue.

Yes, it's a depressing situation all around. For what it's worth, I don't think he will resign.
Why? We’ve got a great team - they just are big being coached or played right.
Steve Bruce could be available soon.
The lack of coherent spending comes from the lack of coherent club fooballing structure which comes from the Glazers' design to prioritise their dividends over silverware.
If Ole quits, we just have the same problem.
He's probably realised that you can't line up in a difficult away game with 2 front players having free roles, 2 young kids as wingers who don't do much when not in possession, and a combo of Pogba and Matic who can be waltzed through at leisure.
Not quite sure what made him think you could do.
McFred in for Liverpool without any sort of doubt. Rashford too. Right wing up for grabs, but I'd still expect Ronaldo and Bruno to start.
No chance he drops Ronaldo. May rest him here and there but whatever hell do will be built around Ronaldo. If he drops Ronaldo he'll be out the door soon.
Same, never wanted him or any ex-player. It took ages to sack Jose, I knew it will be worse with an ex-player. And worse if they are likeable like Ole.
Yep, something has to give. Man United giving a big payday for stupidly renewing his contract.
Then he doesn't care about United and it is all about a payout.
