Post of the year for me.Yeah Young's defensive nous is really doing wonders for us
Young is crap but he doesn’t pick himself. Ole has to take responsibility for that.
Losing away at Barcelona. Shaw suspended.
You lot are genuinely pricks.

You were never too bothered when people criticised Mourinho. But now everyones a prick for having a go at the manager? What a hypocrite
We are not good and we don't have enough world class players.
Put the world's best manager for this team and they are achieving sh*t all.

This is what he is up against. All individual errors.
He was shit! He’s the reason we’re in this mess.
Ole hasn’t signed anyone. Half of you are acting like he’s an idiot because he had a choice of:
Young,
Rojo,
Darmien,
Dalot.
All of them. Are. Not. Good. Enough
Well he got us to 2nd.
Mourinho had nearly 3 years here & no one would take a loss to Barcelona to be the reason to belittle him.
Barcelona are consistently one of the 2 world's best teams & no manager is changing that.
We need better players first before we start questioning the manager.
That's all well and good but he's persisting with young who should have been binned ages ago. That's on Ole.
And he kept his job when he did. He lost it when he lost the team.
Plus Barcelona in a CL QF is different to a league.
Get this fraud out of my club!!!
Doing poorly with a brilliant team.

He wouldn't. You can't say he did a "wonderful" job unless he actually finishes said "wonderful job" -- getting us into the top 4. Otherwise, he has done exactly as a caretaker manager would, get us into 5th or 6th after a minor bounce. Obviously, the PSG game was an anomaly.
However, now that he has got the job, I think he can still get us comfortably 3rd in the league next season if not title contenders so long as our transfer activity is on point. So I am not too perturbed by it so long as we sign good players since his style of play (counter attacking or the high pressing we saw initially) suits the league.
I'd say Woodward and the board are responsible for that. They all knew what was going to happen but decided to ignore the warning signs in pre season. Then threw away half a season until they were literally forced to get rid.
No matter how bad the run of fixtures that reads for horrific reading. The bubble has well and truly burst.
Indeed. If Ole is still playing these guys (not Dalot, who will turn out fine) next season then he will be responsible for that.
Comparing Mourinho to Ole is simply unfair.
And sacking a manger because players downed tools is an extremely dangerous place to be.
No, no fan would want him for permanent role now if he hadn't already been given it.
But the Glazers are saving the 20m that getting Pochettino would've cost, so they pulled the trigger while fans were swept up.
Singling out individual players after they got their second is absurd, the entire team crumbled and accepted defeat, everyone lost faith after it and that's it.
Christ
All proper fans still want, guess you are not one of them..
Leave him be. He's on Ole's case for a good while now.
Wow.
Speak for yourself, I'm dissapointed he has a man crush on Young but other than that he's doing well considering the state of this club.
Then the same can be said about LVG not just Mourinho.
If Guardiola hypothetically had this squad, I don’t think he’d fare much better. It’s the most clusterfeck high profile squad in Europe.
I honestly think he will do well to see out 2 seasons. That's not a criticism of him but the expectation levels versus where we actually are, are huge.
We are miles off, you could genuinely see the need to change 6 players. With that in mind, even the best manager would need luck for that level of recruitment.

Whatever, I care about the club, and I know that's true.All proper fans still want, guess you are not one of them..
I also want to be proven wrong with OGS.
But if you seriously think that people would still be calling for him to be given the permanent role based on this then you're daft.
People don't wanna admit that they're wrong - it's the same thing that saw millions of people saying 'give Moyes time'.
Very true and dangerous president was set.
Whilst I think you make the point harshly, I do think there is truth in what you say.
Ironically the club said and tried to do all the right things, but ultimately they failed once again.
We have a United legend as manager who is relatively young, understands the club and will learn as he goes. Losing to a far superior side tonight (as well as the recent leggy performances) won't stop me from being excited about what Ole might do here.
Ridiculous to start writing him off and claiming he isn't up to it.

erm no.
Think his first big test is who he gets rid of in the summer.
Letting only Rojo, Valencia and Darmian while keeping the likes of Young, Jones, Lingard etc. as either first 11 or the 1st subs to be used is just going to mean more of the same. Struggling to play good football and struggling to get near Champions League.
It'll be interesting to see what he does.

Should have waited until the end of the season to make an appointment. I thought that even when we were winning.
Firing Mou was the not the only answer (Hiring him was a mistake) ...but we needed to solve more than just him. Nothing has changed.

Meh. I dont blame Ole too much but I cant get past the feeling that we rushed his appointment. We've shown we're capable of beating good teams but these past two games against Barca have been dreadful. We havent even tested their obviously shakey defence.
Not convinced by him tbh. Don't want him or but think we were way too hasty in giving him a long term contract. I find myself baffled by some of his tactics and team selection.
What the actual hell am I reading? Are people drunk, stupid or both? I am genuinely disgusted by some of the replies here. Should keep me well off the sire for some time now. Christ.
Playing devils advocate it would have been ridiculous to claim he was up for it / even mention him for the job a few months ago.
