Well, it was a knee jerk thread for The Knee Jerks if I ever saw one. Most who were inspired to submit a list had Mourinho in top three and Ole in the bottom fifth of current level - even if Solskjær has United doing better with the United squad Mou built + Ole’s additions than Mou has done with the squad Pochettino built + Mou’s additions. The lack of consequential logic is staggering, but it may be well suited to a particular type of agenda.I mean, just look at this. Majority of the posters on the first page confidently put Arteta above Ole. Sure, he might be decent manager, but the jury still has to be out for him no? FA cup win is nice, but Arsenal did not even qualify for the EL last season, which is very much "midtable" according to the caf. Since he took over, they managed 8 wins in 20 his first season, this season they've beat WH, Sheffield and Fulham the latter two which are rock bottom and have been dreadful
Also, they've not really played the brand of "champagne football" that Arsenal has (had?) a reputation of playing, so i dont really see how people can be confident about how hes such a better manager than Ole
I am of those who have been of a few defending Mourinho in accusations of him being a tactical dinosaurs , and I wonder were all those current Mourinho admirers where then.
