You don't think goal difference might play apart? What about instilling a killer instict into our team, not important? Frankly, it was ridiculous that we took the foot off the pedal after an hour given we've been shite for most of the season.
How is this different from the many of you who roll with the garbage of going backwards in order to go forwards? Your acceptance of mediocrity is no different so stop acting like a top red, you weasel.
Classic example of looking hard for something to complain about.
Well I - and 99% of all managers agree that increasing the chance of winning the next game is more important than adding an extra goal to our tally. But if it's any comfort to you I can think of at least one more thing that he been shit all season
To be united manager with his CV, sounds very very very lucky to me!
And your constant moaning even after wins is ruining the forum for me.
Are you taking the piss? No they aren't some people are just saying it was a good result. Literally no one has made any posts of the sort you are referring to.
Maybe you should put me on ignore?
A little pedantic maybe but wanting the team to lose matches to get the manager fired is absolutely not 'always having its best interests at heart'.
I wasn't serious and even if I was I don't care enough to do that. However, I do find it funny how you aren't giving Ole the same flexibility you gave Mourinho when he was here. The hypocrisy is mildly amusing.
Maybe because I didn't think we were as bad especially during his 2nd season. By the third, I, like most others, gave up on him.
I actually feel empathy for the Ole Out Gang.
Wow. We only need kicking the boot at banking accountant's face and we got our SAF back ...and I thought Jose was the exuberant one.
I agree - next season will be his true test.
Not the point. Do you actually believe you are judging them by the same stick? These posts were in November of last year:
Compare that to this (just in this thread):
That is a staggering amount of hypocrisy. In fairness, it's not just you. I've said this before: One of the main reasons why I don't respect a large portion of those who want Ole out is because they were bending over backward to give Jose allowances they refuse to give Ole, solely because his managerial CV is worse.
Of course track record goes a long way in the case of anyone. If Pep or Klopp had not won anything they would not be employed by City or Liverpool. Jose was employed because he has won the PL a few times, won the Serie A, La Liga, Primiera Liga and the CL twice.
Why won’t you apply for Ed’s job. Think you would run this club very well. Straight to success. Strengthen in Jan and win the league by summer
Nice, but prepare to hear about how it's totally different this time.
the Ole throwing chairs and tables bit is how you know that's utter BS. Forget the part where it's out of character, we hadn't even started dropping games to get to that point of frustration. I don't know who this journo is but no one has a 100% record and they all have personal opinions and agendas people tend to mix in with what they report
He hates Ole more than Jose. So what....he doesn’t have to be impartial just to please us. Like most people that back Ole his blind faith to Jose stopped him from seeing the truth. Atleast he hasn’t been fooled twice. Smart man.
Never a truer word typed on here. Well said.
That's an extremely myopic point of view. Mangers, just like players can become better or worse. Pep and Zidane, club legends, became managers of the two biggest clubs in the world managing sides B sides (3rd and 4th division respectively IIRC). Fans need to stop pretending CV is this great indicator of future success because it's simply not, especially when comparing jobs on different ends of the resource spectrum.
It's not even blind faith. He literally has two completely different standards for a United manager. That is next-level hypocrisy.
Even more absurd that you have "fans" defending another "fan" that is hoping "their" team loses so the manager is sacked. Mind-numbing stuff.
So you're telling me he had more patience with Mourinho, who won trophies and finished 2nd a few months before, over the man whose only track record in an elite football league previous to the shitshow we're currently witnessing was taking Cardiff from 16th to 20th and six points off safety? That's crazy talk.
Funny, I've always suspected some Jose supporters were still sore about the sacking. The negativity back then was massive, and even when Ole came back, at the slightest wobble you could feel it brewing behind the scenes. It's now affected everything and everyone surrounding the club.
The same manager who spent nearly 400m on players mostly deemed not good enough, created a toxic atmosphere, didn't hit his own targets, never challenged for the PL (2nd yet 16 points from 1st), consistently poor results in the CL, and had United 11 points off 4th before left. Yeah, let's give this guy more rope and bin the guy who nearly salvaged last season after 6 months into his first transfer window.
I'm convinced it's just another way to validate their backing Jose. If Ole is fired and a manager with a great CV is brought in, it becomes all Woodward's fault and the mental gymnastics begin again.
Madness... but don’t talk too much sense. You’ll confuse people.
wow. One of the most thorough takedowns of a poster. Fantastic.
I knew Mourinho would be bad (I didn’t think would be THAT bad) but I thought it was needed to hire him. I thought once he’d finally failed we could move on. Obviously not.
