Would you sack or keep Ole? (Poll reopened)

[Wumminator]

50% of this forum is absolute.. i dont even want to go there. Just remember, you do not deserve to enjoy days like this. You deserve nothing.

That is what makes it sweet though.

for those of us who could see what was coming.. it feels so deserved.

For everyone who has called Ole a PE manager, for everyone who said he was the worst manager in the league, for everyone who said they hated him for sticking up for the Glazers... there’s a sense of shame about these wins. They know they don’t deserve them.
This is an incredible feeling. Hopefully people can share in the good feeling. But for those of you who do feel ashamed of how they’ve spoke about the lovable manager of United.. learn from this.

 

[GailSpaceWynand]

We need the poll back on.

Great performance. Was clear on the intent the moment we made the mctominay change. 3 points against a dominant city. Bring on Spurs!

 

[RollieOle]

Not for me and he won’t do better than this. But I’m not going to debate it whilst emotions are high..

His record against the big teams is pretty damn good to be fair, it will be hard to see him get any better. Maybe with a full team he will! Enjoy mate, your team won, we are still in the FA cup and the Europa league.

 

[RedIan]

They closed the poll after our last loss.

FFS I've said that it's an amazing win for Ole.

But you can't have 28% possession at OT and say it's been anything other than a smash and grab.

To me, it's cowardly football. You can't have a Citeh side without De Bruyne having %72 possession at OT - it's laughable.

It’s far from cowardly, its about playng smarter. We all know city are the better footballing teams if we go toe to toe we get beat - the players were all hero’s in red shirts today... we played it perfectly. When we get another 2 or 3 class players in then maybe we go toe to toe. Until then clever tactics beats stupidity - wood/trees

 

[Rhyme Animal]

So your pride is hurt that we played to our current teams strength and did a job on City? Imagine whinging so much after a great win, just bonkers.

I'm not the one whinging - just defending my point to a bunch of whingers.

It's a great win - again, it's a massive win.

Again - based on results like this Ole deserves to be Utd manager next season without a doubt.

But it's shite football and 28% possession at OT is cowardly football.

Agree to disagree, and enjoy the win.

 

[Dr. Dwayne]

Mr. Gorbachev re-open this poll!

 

[lysglimt]

It’s Mourinho football. But we Need top 4. So I don’t care but don’t tell me this is the man to lead us into next season.

Yeah who would want a manager with 7-3-0 in the last 10 games and 24-2 GD.

 

[mu4c_20le]

It's locked, so we can see those non believers eat their words...

It's going well.

Ah, i enjoyed watching it go up and down like the stock market

Did you watch the game mate? We were the better team ffs. We won 2-0 and it could've been more if James had a brain.

 

[jackal&hyde]

Exactly, it was baffling at times.

Puppet, Fraud, yes Man, the clueless one, worst manager in the PL .... And so on... It was sad to see, and depressing at times.

Some people should be ashamed of themselves for some of the things they said, irrespective of our results. Good thing for the ignore function as i wouldn't have been able to stand reading the rubbish coming from a select few.

 

[roonster09]

There's a limit though... like this is a great win for Ole, but it's cowardly football at home.

It's really negative and it's utter dross to watch.

 

[Jinn]

He knows what he's doing, you know...

I've enjoyed this season the most since SAF left.
Fighting spirit...and all that.
Ole is the man for the forseeable future, as long as we see improvements.

I watched it all bar the first 20 minutes.

 

[sammsky1]

Its the same football... moment of brilliance and hold. It’s not a debate. Especially after this game.

state of you. Under your small stone you go. On your way.

 

[Rossa]

It is for me too. Reminds me so much of Greece winning the Euro. Only score on the counter or from set pieces, always have 8 players in the box when the other team attacks, can ony create when the other teams defense is running back. Not the way manchester United should be playing

Seen Liverpool play city? They do the same.

 

[Phil Osophy]

Keep the poll closed, please. Leave them exposed.

Aren't you seeing progress?

 

[justboy68]

We're certainly on a good run again. Long may it continue!

 

[Jonno]

Not for me and he won’t do better than this. But I’m not going to debate it whilst emotions are high..

We smash inferior teams 3-0, 5-0, we win ugly against the top teams like today. We’re evolving under Ole, we’re on course to finish top 4 and possibly win a trophy, with a young, hungry, evolving team. Another big summer for transfers in the summer and we’re closer to competing.

fcuk me it must hurt you so much that 'your team' wins a game. Its hilarious.

I am man!!! I’m smiling!!! We needed this win.

 

[Suvvernmanc]

New poll is needed. I would love to see the views of the caf now

 

[onetwo3oclock4oclockrock]

Ole (the tactically inept) 3- 1 Pep (Best manager in the world)

We ran out of steam in the second half, not a big surprise given the Thursday match, but defended really well. 10 unbeaten in a row, 24-2 in goals, 8 clean sheets. 3 out of last 4 in PL. (Or 3 out of last 7 in Mainaldo language.)

 

[Verminator]

Progress. Like I said.

 

[Jinn]

Aren't you seeing progress?

Oh yes absolutely. More progress with a few more quality signings would be mint.

 

[Rhyme Animal]

Agree.

In short, you want us to lose the game just so we can say we had slightly more possession.

What a clever lad.

I'll take having more shots and shot attempts than Man City than having rolled the ball about more.

 

[Relevated]

Very good game from solskjaer. He should have guided the team to a 4-0 win if Daniel james made the assists.

 

[Foxbatt]

It's a fantastic win and he has to keep winning if he wants to be at United.

 

[Regulus Arcturus Black]

Guys can we not come in here and gloat.
If you’ve wanted Ole in all season, that’s great. But don’t insult those who haven’t, it’s not a good look at all.

Be smug... be super fecking smug about how long sighted you all are and how short sighted the others are.

Be don't be cnuts.

 

[Mainoldo]

I thought he was going to go on the pitch and punch him

Yes, that's clearly what I've said isn't it?

Clever lad indeed.

 

[crossy1686]

Square passes in their own half between their own back line for most of it.
You’d think after having Van Gaal here was enough to turn people off from that shit forever

 

[Relevated]

I thought he was going to go on the pitch and punch him

He was very angry. I wonder what he actually said I couldn't quite catch it

 

[Henrik Larsson]

My concern is much more about the lack of quality in our squad than about Ole's competence. Today's game screamed for some talented fast forwards from the bench to finish off City, but we simply don't have them available. I like the fact that we've had many of good results under Ole with an unbalanced squad lacking in quality.

City brought in 100 million euros worth with Mahrez and Jesus today. Zidane was genius when he won CL's while being able to bring in Gareth fecking Bale from the bench and have him score overhead kicks at crucial moments. Luis Enrique won a treble when he had Neymar, Messi and Suarez.

We're resorting to having Daniel James on the pitch for 90 minutes while trying to compete in the toughest league in the world. And that is where the margin to improve lies in my opinion, getting even more better players in our squad is much more important than switching to a sixth manager in seven years in the hopes he will magically fix things.

 

[Reditus]

If you look through that squad now at the players who were here before Ole.
who do you think he has helped improve in his time here?

I’d suggest the following Fred, Shaw, Martial, Rashford, Matic, McTominay

 

[UnitedSofa]

Yes, that's clearly what I've said isn't it?

Clever lad indeed.

Possession doesn't win you games lad.

 

[ThinkTank@Cafe]

Ole > Pep?

Yes. I believe so. Ole has beaten Pep twice with the team he built from the ashes. Pep had a fine tuned £1B + squad he hand picked And coached for seasons.

Before anyone starts to Throw Pep’s trophy haul as an argument, I would like to state that Ole>>>>>>Jose.

 

[Leftback99]

We don't need the poll re-opening. It doesn't mean anything either way. It's always going to be biased towards those who want him out because they shout loudest.

Hopefully the Ole outers that have been insulting anyone that dared defend him all season will concede now that maybe he isn't the worst manager in the league etc. whether they still don't want him or not.

It's never been as bad as the 'Ole outers' have made out just as everything isn't great now just because we've won a few games.
