I hope you are right, mate.
It's just that I have some trauma with how the club put out a similar Instagram post after the Liverpool game.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?

I’m thinking it’s because the board don’t really know what to do. They obviously are on the fence and maybe it’s because they don’t have a suitable replacement
I just don't understand why Ole doesn't quit himself. I would have so much respect for him if he quit himself. Is it money? Is that what owners want? I mean, if I would lose 5 or so million to quit, I would not do it haha. Fire me...
I mean there is no way back from this. We suck so badly. We never sucked this bad. We haven't been good at all entire year... 2+ months have passed and we lost to pathetic sides... What are we waiting? Sack Ole and let's move on... Damage to Ole's reputation and to club's reputation is gonna go lower and lower. He should have been sacked a month or so ago...

By quitting, he stands to lose a lot more than £5m. The ink is barely dry on a 3 year £7.5m per year contract.
"we're the biggest club in the world"
"the fans outside Manchester don't matter"
Pick one.
It's embarrassing, I've missed 2 united games in the past 5 years on TV. I don't understand why some fans think our opinions matter less.
I think Ole thinks he can turn things around. He is probably a bit deluded because he has lost trust of the supporters and likely the players too. It would be be best if Ole resigned. He will still get a pay out. Don't really agree with holding out for a large pay out considering he has let everyone down, then again it is a greedy sport.
Don't want your resume to read "that loser who gave up and quit when things got tough and gave the respect excuse".
People always make fun or a joke of clubs like Real Madrid/Chelsea/Man City of being trigger happy. They are like “circus” club.
Over the last 10 years, they backed it up with actual output in trophies.
In fact, we are about the same (minus the trophies).
Rotten to the core (top to bottom).

Big day today
The biggest
It's sad, but some on here will never accept us as true fans.
Bro, it's fans like yourself that help make our club as big as what it is.
I'm English but now live in Queensland and I don't get to see United play anymore. Like yourself, I support the club through the night.
You're joking right? Why would anything change from yesterday? He's staying.
"Meesa thinks Glazers save my again." - Jaer Jaer.
We’ll see, I’m cautiously optimistic about today, him leaving UK yesterday and all.
I remember Solskjær saying a while ago that if he thought leaving united would be the best for the club then he’d walk away… was that just all lies? Surely he knows that walking away will get him a lot more respect from us fans and it looks better for him if he wants other jobs rather then being sacked. If he just admitted he’s done his very best and took us as far as he can then he’ll leave with a lot more pride but instead he’d rather ruin his legacy by staying which could make us end up finishing the season mid table… he’ll always be remembered for that.
Has he really said that? You have a link to this?
You just have to laugh at this point.
Woodward to stay? I don’t think anyone is remotely surprised.
He went to Norway to bring the rest of his coaching staff from Molde, or maybe the current Molde manager who is doing much much better than him when he left.
The situation for Manchester United and Solskjaer is starting to resemble the pre-Tuchel Chelsea - Lampard relationship.
Since the beginning of the season, there has been no stability in the game, neither as a template nor as a mentality. As a result, there are unbalanced results. In other words, while the team conceded five goals from Liverpool in a week, we beat Tottenham by scoring three away goals a week later. Or, turn a match that was bad in the first half, in the second half, with individual talents taking responsibility. (For exp. Villareal vs Atalanta matches).
The emotional ups and downs that result from this instability are among the most distressing things for big team fans. We can win Watford and Villareal games ahead with a very good game, then lose out on Chelsea away and then a week later we can win with a clear score against Arsenal at home. Or other scenarios vice versa.
A great team doesn't have to deal with these fluctuations. For this reason, we should thank Ole, we have to agree with a coach who will take the team to the next level and gain an identity. . Otherwise, we will lose this season as well..

Naah. I don't think a poor season will "destroy" Man Utd. Piss us off, sure. But not screw us up badly for the future.
Morning to the rest.of the therapy group.
So I'm sure.thisnhas already been said but this is how I see it at the moment (potentially wishful thinking).
The board know it's time for Ole to go but they don't want to sack him without a long term or decent interim option available. I suspect they have told Ole his time is up but haven't announced it until they can sort the replacement.
To support this thinking I would suggest this is why Ole is now in Norway and the staff/players given a week off. Essentially told to get out of Dodge while the club sort it.
If this was the case I'd almost see this as the board being competent so although I think it's possible it also wouldn't suprise me if Ole is just on holiday and this mess continues. That being said, who would go for a break now when what is needed is graft and a plan!
My only concern with this at the minute is how there aren't leaks from the press about him still being sacked. I would have thought if we were looking, something would still be leaking out, so that's concerning.
Do you think there is much of a chance this is right? Or just wishful thinking?

You only have to look at Moyes tenure with us to see how much damage one poor season can do to a club.
Yep, Solskjaer is going ice fishing.
Sadly I think it is wishful thinking. Our board are so inept we will be in League 1 before they think sacking him is a good idea....
Wishful thinking. Knowing how useless the board are I'd say its more likely they've taken pity on Solskjaer and have sent him on holiday to clear his head, giving him time to think up the next killer formation, and ready to come back and turn things around against Watford.
The muppets are out in force, they've just about had enough.
Massive day today.
Massive day today.
Today is his last day.
I have a feeling.
I have a feeling.
Looking at the list of players left behind, he barely uses most of them so he probably doesn't care what form they are in.
Meanwhile, Watford - which probably doesn't have many internationals - would already be working on their tactics against us.
very true unfortunately! So now is a golden opportunity for him to work with them and discover what some of them (the likes of VDB/ Sancho) can do, I believe Greenwood has been left behind to? You never know, he may actually find them to be useful. We are up the certain type of creek without a paddle if Ronaldo gets injured....Nah I don't think he would or he'd have done it already. Surely he could come to some sort of mutual consent agreement and get a partial pay out (say half). Football must be the only job you get a multi million pound payout for underperformance!
Many men wish death upon Ole.
I just don't get the logic, every performance this season has been poor other than Leeds on the opening day. Football people or not, I can't believe they don't see that and see the need for change.
Not only that, surely they are damaging the brand by making us look like a club that lacks ambition. Why spend 400m over his tenure and not then demand better results/performances.
Finally, in crisis I don't think you would give the team and coaches a week off. This is when the coaches need to be working in fixing the problems.
Perhaps wishful thinking, maybe you are right. It's just negligent from all involved if he isn't being moved on.
Yeah, think he is done.
Critical moment in his final days of his tenure, he has the mood to go for a short holiday.
Instead of staying back to work on things or engage his remaining players.
Either he don't give a feck anymore or is pending the final death sentence by the club.

He deserves at break after a perfect start to the season where the team are fully integrated in the "express yourself" tactic.
Norway is beyond help.

Given they spent the last international break analysing what had been going wrong only to ship 4 at Leicester, 5 to Liverpool, 2 to City after...its probably best they don't actually spend this break doing anything.

Hey, not my words. I'm just repeating what someone else said as maybe they have a point.
Getting some Norwegian chocolates as an apology and all will be fine again.
