Not sure if he's the longterm guy but right now i'd give him another year and summer window to get in another 2-3 players, majority of the team have improved individually from the last couple of years, we need a nucleus of a side put together and he seems to be doing that even if the results and some decisions are poor.
Hmm, I think this is something of a red herring.
I mean, if we take our first 11:
DDG has gotten worse. Shaw as bad as ever. AWB new, massive money, Maguire new, Massive money.
McTom young, always gonna improve year on year. Thought he was superb in plenty of games for Mourinho like Liverpool home. If anything, just being a regular is the big difference.
Fred, now settled, always a top player, now people see why Pep wanted him.
Pogba, worse or Andreas/Lingard worse or as shit as ever.
James new, "meh"
Rashford, definitely better, talented lad who I have always expected to improve year on year. Playing him left I give massive credit to management for.
Martial, better? nah, just that he's now playing every week, I don't see improvement per se.
The team as a whole... pretty shite.
