Ole is doing a good job. We're improving year on year. The limitations to what Ole will achieve will be down to how the club and recruitment is run.
Van Gaal summed it up when he said the United is not run by football people, it's run by accounts. He said he thought United could sign anyone but it wasn't the case.
People need to taper their expectations. The game has moved on so much since Fergie and our dominance of the 90s and 00s. The premier league is like the NBA of football, the best coaches are here and there's plenty of clubs with huge financial means.
Edit: I'd also add that people should look at how near to perfect a team has to be to win the league now. Liverpool and City's recent title wins has insane points totals. This season again, City will be the same. So from where we were when Ole took over it is clearly a long process to get to the level of recent title wins. 2nd place this season would be a good achievement this season.
