It defies belief.Exactly. People are only looking at the results but to be bring these many changes in just three matches is just amazing.

I'm already thinking along these lines. I wonder if the club are.Keep Ole as the coach for the good feel factor and positivity. Give him the best brains in football to work alongside as coaches and reboot the scouting team. See how this goes before embarking on a complete change and new beginnings again.
There's no point in going to for Poch if we have a manager that is doing everything we want him to do. Even if Solskjaer has a blip, I'd rather we supported him and threw money at the problem instead of asking the question "Does this manager really understand what we're about? Can we trust his judgement?". With Ole we remove that doubt completely. With Poch we'd be asking ourselves if he's a bottler and why hasn't he won anything. It's a no brainer for me.I know many of us want to get Poch but I can't see the difference if Ole can get us playing nice football, winning a lot of games playing with winning form and finish the season with 75-80+ points. Only advantage Poch has is experience and on other hands, Ole may be considered for long-term as long as we keep progressing every season in the future and give top team tough games. Ole love the club and want us to do well.
Neither played with the same attacking verve though. Jose got a few 4-0s and 4-1s but it didn't feel the same. And Moyes started with the champions, so shouldn't be part of any conversation about this!Exactly. Mourinho started like this too. Even Moyes won his first game 4-1.
The start we've made under OGS has been brilliant but I'd still be against giving him the job permanently. We need a proper reboot in the summer and as Neville said, the new manager and DoF need to be the best available.
Ye, I like poch and even though he is praised for being a gentleman and loyal to a degree I just have this feeling that he will want the Real Madrid job one day. I can't see why Ole can't be our poch. With help from phelan, SAF, and many other experienced people the first couple of years, I think he will do well. He loves the club and it seems that for him it is the biggest job.Poch isn't going to do anything different to warrant throwing 40m at him. Allegri and Conte will be too defensive for our fans.
Keeping Ole looks like our best option. I'm so optimistic about him.
This graph says it all!
3 points and 3 goals to overtake Arsenal now.
Hey buddy!Apart from the results themselves:
- De Gea playing it short and not hoofing
- Center backs playing from the back
- Full backs playing high
- Matic can play football
- Two midfielders attacking the box and not two defending it
- Chase goals and not protecting leads
- The best central mid in the world enjoys playing football
- Actually playing to the strengths of our attacking talent
- Etc.
Just a world of difference.
I'd cry to sleep if United brought Conte anywhere near United.Poch isn't going to do anything different to warrant throwing 40m at him. Allegri and Conte will be too defensive for our fans.

May not even be a bounce as much as we’d think. Carrick and McKenna have been there a while already. Add in Phelan and we’ve got a fantastic staff that has both ethos and experience. Ole will only get better too I believe.Hate to bring this up because I want Ole to succeed more than I could possibly express in words, but how much of the recent upsurge in performance squad-wide can we attribute to the new manager bounce, if at all?
That was exactly my line of thought when I heard that interview. Losing or getting bored doesn't even enter my mind now Ole is managing. I look forward to watching United again.It’s been discussed a million times already, but when I was watching the pre game interview Ole said “we have a bigger and better squad than most teams in the league”
It was such a simple comment that he probably didn’t even think about it, yet it was such a stark contrast from “Everton have very ambitious owners who have spent a lot of money”.
Yes, this would be ridiculous, and we may as well have kept Mourinho!I'd cry to sleep if United brought Conte anywhere near United.
I also like Solskjaer for you.I know many of us want to get Poch but I can't see the difference if Ole can get us playing nice football, winning a lot of games playing with winning form and finish the season with 75-80+ points. Only advantage Poch has is experience and on other hands, Ole may be considered for long-term as long as we keep progressing every season in the future and give top team tough games.

4/5 please, Geebs.Same age as fergie when he took over. Would be nice to get some more longevity and long term planning again
Let’s hope for 4/4 against Newcastle. I’m loving it!
4/5 please, Geebs.
New manager bounce or otherwise, the players clearly have the ability to perform as a top outfit based on the evidence provided over the last couple of weeks.May not even be a bounce as much as we’d think. Carrick and McKenna have been there a while already. Add in Phelan and we’ve got a fantastic staff that has both ethos and experience. Ole will only get better too I believe.
Haha sorry I meant 4 out of 4, 100% record4/5 please, Geebs.
I think most people forget ole has had something like 400 games as a manager. who knows how this will end in 6 months but there are lots of similarities between the way ole's Molde fk play and now United, of course at a higher level. Not really a surprise these players (defence not good enough for attacking or defensive football) are looking better under a manager who wants to play attacking football, they might not be world beaters but they're certainly not as bad as jose's tactics made them out to be. IMO jose would have done brilliant here if he actually knew how to coach attacking players but he didn't have a clue.New manager bounce or otherwise, the players clearly have the ability to perform as a top outfit based on the evidence provided over the last couple of weeks.
I was more than prepared for a relegation battle when Ole took charge, but he has taken to the role like a duck to water. It's hard to believe how well he has done.

I'll be fine if we're just very competitive in big games and didn't look like we're getting destroyed. Anything can happen in big games, just be competitive and do your best.If ole beats 3 of the 5 big teams in the second half of the season, I'll definitely want him to be our manager for the years ahead.
