I think Ed will go with the easiest choice and give it to Carrick as he knows the inside better.
I'd be totally on board with Wenger really. Could probably convince the players to stay we want to keep and build some of the respect level back up before the permanent appointment comes in. And if he does superb...perhaps he ll want the gig longer... Things I never thought id say a few years ago.
Was that the game Rooney scored from the halfway line?
The caretaker just needs to steady the ship a bit, build the players confidence and get them playing some decent football. The expectation and remit shouldnt really be much more than that at the minute given the season is practically written off.
One of the arguments against Jose was that football passed him by.
And some of you want to hire Wenger?

Yeah wasn't great - only lasted 9 months, got relegated, won 9 and lost 16 of his 30 games in charge. Sacked.
I think you've forgot how bad Arsenal looked at times under Wenger, it would be a ridiculous decision.
Yeah I get Ole has been a manager but has been so for two spells at an awful league, between that getting relegated with Cardiff. I'm not saying Carrick is my preference but between those two I'm really not sure.
This. I was sure it was people having a laugh at first, now I'm worried.
Solskjaer would be very good; Gary Neville another strong shout. Looks like Blanc isn't being considered then?
Ole for me. Though I also fancy him for permanent manager.
He won 30% of his games while managing Cardiff? That's not bad.
A portion of that was in the Championship, after he got them relegated (they finished 20th on 30 points).
apparently not, i would have liked him with knowing the club and being French and experienced.
Paul Scholes!
Ferguson would be a brilliant left-field appointment. We know he had his health scare last season but it’s only a short-term appointment. Imagine the shot in the arm that would give the Club as a whole...
Simeone or Southgate would absolute crush my optimism
Well three years ago Molde finished 1st in their EL group, they play good football and under Ole they won some trophies.
I'm not saying he will save this club but I'm looking forward to rest of the season if he'll be our manager.
People underestimate the pressures that Man Utd brings. I wouldn't want that on Fergie after his health scare. Let's not be selfish. His health and family is more important than the club.
It should absolutely not be Fergie. Let the man stay retired.
The man almost died from a fecking brain haemorrhage a few months ago.
Ferguson would be a mistake.
None of his staff are here, and he’s been gone for years. I wouldn’t want the idiots to give him sh*t if he didn’t improve us immediately.

I'd take Ole at this point. Why not? Is anyone we get gonna stop Phil Jones scoring own goals? No. So may as well give it to a lad we already sing songs for.
I'd very much like Ole to be the caretaker. Yes, he doesn't have a great track record, but this season is a write off anyway.
We just need someone positive and a fan favourite taking over could be a great boost.

About seven instagram-runners would lose their jobs for at least the next six months.
We're still in the Champions League atm
Think Solskjaer would be perfect as an interim manager. He'll no doubt bring back some positivity and get the fans on board. He'll also not hesitate to play young players, and he knows what this club is all about.
His record in Norway is fine. Not to be United boss but to fill in when we have nothing to lose? Sure
Hard to blame him for not saving Cardiff when the club was in a mess. Though (and I remember saying this at the time) he was a complete idiot for even taking the job in the first place and should absolutely be balmed for that error. He had a good rep from his work with Molde at the time and should have waited for the right Premier League job rather than walking into an already sinking ship and taking much of his good reputation down with it
Ole was absolute horeshit at Cardiff. Not sure about him.
As much as I love Fergie, I hope he stays out of it. The poor bloke is still recovering from a major illness and managing again might set him back.
Ole should be coming in to replace Lukaku, not Mourinho
Give it to Ole for the reminder of the season. He's one of our own and the season has been a disaster so we don't have much to lose.
Ole has as much chance winning the CL as Di Matteo for Chelsea.
Ole IS a legend I would not want him to risk tarnishing that. As long as it is an attacking coach I don't see why they have to have previous links with the club.
Take your choice
