Ole's press conference vs Spurs
- Thread starter Dante
- Start date
First question - How are you?
Toughest week in the job?
How are the players?
Did you speak to him (Sir Alex Ferguson), and can you survive your position like he did in the early days?
How has the week been personally?
How much of what you read the press is true?
Home truths this week?
Team news
Just from the first answer I want him out
Resign, respect less and shameless, taking about looking forward for next game with no dignity whatsoever.
Protected because he’s the Glazer’s shield.
We used to have a manager the press were scared of… now we have one that needs special treatment to protect him from them.

Might as well caress him with a feather while they were at it. Some "journalists". Glazers lapdogs.
Excellent presser.
Doesnt seem as fresh and joyful as in previous ones though.
I dont even know why was this presser so anticipated. What should have he said, oh I'll probably get the sack in 3 games, I'm a crap manager and I'm resigning at this moment. Cheers.

didnt seem to be under any pressure at all. similar to the rest of the club. just coasting along.
Welcome to the worlds most pointless press conference.
Anything Ole says from this point will get ripped to shreds and taken out of context by the vultures in the media and his own fanbase. There is nothing he can say that will please anyone, he's a sheep among the wolves.

Teflon don.
Shambles.. all smiles
also, we didnt get battered by liverpool because we were a punch drunk boxer, we got battered because we didnt know how to throw a punch, and were too busy tripping over our own shoelaces.
MVP Dante
Papa SAF came in and sorted it all out.
How is everyone feeling by the way? Did you all have a good week? How is the family? I know that last week was disappointing, but are you hoping that things will be better in the future?
That’s it from me. You do take care now, dear.

Smiling, laughing, business as usual eh lads. Just another week. Same old shite
Everything that comes from his mouth that is not "I resign" is shit.
I think he managed it just fine, could've gone a lot worse.
At this point what we should want as fans is to get a couple of results to salvage the season and to give the next manager something to work with. We should go to the CL knockouts first and then we should Win against spurs and at least draw against City.
I think both can be done if we just abandon this braindead pressing system.

Very condescending on that first question.
You can knock his answers I guess but some of the questions the media come up with are dreadful
We’ll give it a shot FC
I know its hard to be a football journalist. I know you run the risk of being done by the club if you go in two footed. However, for there to be NO questions on tactics is pathetic.
You do not have to call Ole names or imply he is getting it wrong. Why not say: 'You have had success in the past against Spurs, defending deep and hitting them on the counter. Especially through Marcus Rashford. With Rashford fully fit is that an approach we might expect tomorrow?'
There you can give him an out, while inviting him to talk about the merits of counterattacking against the kamikaze approach we saw last Sunday?
Instead all we got was: How do you feel Ole? Are you alright?

Thought he handled all that lot really well, it went a lot better than I expected. Fully fit squad is hopefully telling- no one hiding. Sounding positive for Saturday
Tyson fury? That raised an eyebrow for me.
Can’t even get angry about it anymore, just resigned myself to the fact he ain’t going nowhere and neither is the club
Imagine being odd enough to expect any different. It was a standard Ole press conference.
The fact that I'm going to see him managing us again tomorrow hurts my eyes enough. I'm not interested in watching his pressers.
We go again! This time for real! (until it isn't)
Oh well, after that press conference, at least we can look forward to the match commentary tomorrow:
"Such a fascinating, tactical fight. This really is one for the purists. So techinical"
(Just 30 seconds after the match has started and it is still 0-0)
"And he goes down faster than a plate of Alabama barbeque!"
(When McTominay ‘slaps’ Son)
“He isn’t getting up from that”
(After Son hits the deck)
“Sometimes you just have to roll with the punches”
(After Son turns over and over on the grass)
“Scrambled his senses”
(Affect on Maguire after Kane feigns to turn one way)
“Well, that was really below the belt”
(After Maguire surprisingly blocks a shot... in an unorthodox way)
“Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee”
(Any corner that is floated to our 6-yard box that Tottenham get on the end of, after the refusal of De Gea to move off his line)

Conflict-averse Potemkin journalism on full display.
Am I the only one that thinks that if he's the right man, there probably shouldn't have been 2 or 3 crises in under 3 years?

im not sure the two things go together.
come kickoff i want us to win 100%, its just if we dont, ill be nowhere near as disappointed as before, certainly not in the last 20 years. its all just meh, regardless of what happens with the manager.
I hope this would be his last presser for us, he's a fraud, never want us to lose a game but i feel losing this is the only way he gets the boost out.
