Di Maria's angel
Captain of Moanchester United
The feck is that? Only at United.He is/was a change/transitional manager, he is not a manager for growth.

Harder to beat in that we started winning games again. Against tough opposition and in general. We rode our luck at times and made a lot of comebacks. That in itself is probably unacceptable but at least we won the majority of games in that timeMade us harder to beat like today?
He's done nothing is his time here other than not be toxic.
Unfortunately, this match is his legacy.
He achieved above expectations for about three months at the start. Ever since then he's been just about on par at best.A caretaker who won the lottery and achieved above expectations for a while.
You misread what I posted. I said he isnt toxic.Harder to beat in that we started winning games again. Against tough opposition and in general. We rode our luck at times and made a lot of comebacks. That in itself is probably unacceptable but at least we won the majority of games in that time
He has never been a toxic manager. It would be completely rewriting history to suggest so. It's clear that the players have performed for him. We've been in other runs of bad performances and form for him and his predecessors. But the major difference has been that the players downed tools on Moyes, LVG and Mourinho. They didn't for Solksjaer until now, I think. His lack of ability to coach them is what has finally led to this. Not any sort of toxicity.
He wasn’t even qualified enough to manage a bottom half side pre United. What makes you think he was chosen for any reason but being a legendary player?I feel like he was given the job due to being a former player of the club, not due to managerial talent... I hope im wrong and he was picked after the board did some scouting on him.
Apologies, I did misread what you posted.You misread what I posted. I said he isnt toxic.
They both signed new contracts under him. So did Pereira, Mata and Grant, none of whom will ever play more than 5-10 games a season for us any more. New contracts to Lingard and Matic are also questionable but at least you could argue they can be useful squad players.Not going to solely blame him for that in fairness, you can't offload that utter dross with the wages they demand.
Same for me, will show his cares about United more than his own legacy.If he resigns shortly after the match then he gets back my respect!!!

Unfortunately this. He's got so many basics wrong, so many flaws that only results would have made any difference. Now he's not even getting those.His legacy is losing 6-1 to Spurs, 4-0 to Everton, 5-0 to Liverpool at home.
Losing semi finals to average teams. Losing the Europa League final to an average side.
Not making changes fast enough. Constantly using the same players even when we are getting hammered. Playing his favourites even when they’re injured. Has the first 11 changed that much whilst we are on a poor run? It’s literally swap Pogba for McTominay. No formation change at all.
The only good he did was not causing a fuss like Mourinho. I said weeks ago he needs to be sacked before we get truly embarrassed. Well that’s now happened.
We are on course for a 59 point season, which is worse than Moyes. Goal difference, we are on course for a +4. It could also be argued that the next 10 matches are gonna be harder than these 9 we had.Might not feel this way because of the humiliating result, but Moyes was way worse, let's never forget that
Mourinho can burn in hell forever, clearly didn't care one bit about the club and genuinely had us hated at a world wide scale despite getting relatively good results and achievements.
Ole's just like Van Gaal for me, both had good and positive intentions, got some fundamental things right, but just weren't able to be good enough to take us to a level where we need to be based on the resources we (or they) had.
I feel this way tooHe'll never tarnish his legacy. His status is cemented.
People will calm down once he's gone and actually thank him for at least leaving us in a better place than when he came.
I'll never be able to look at a fjord the same way after this result.
If that's what the board wants, i'm sure a Scholes or a Giggs will get the job next... there are many legendary players for them to choose... actually, it's a pretty good tactic by them.He wasn’t even qualified enough to manage a bottom half side pre United. What makes you think he was chosen for any reason but being a legendary player?
