Pogba's cost us two goals in this half.

It was obvious he should have not only started on the bench, but been subbed at HT instead of Bruno.

Ole bought Donny to compete with Pogba and won't even play him when Pogba's obviously unfit/not in form. I don't even rate Donny but we bought him for these exact circumstances.

9 points behind Everton after 4 games. But apparently Ancelotti is a nothing, past it manager. Go figure.

I don't know how anyone can argue Ole deserves to be ManUtd manager after the shit show in every PL game this season.

After tomorrow Woodward can’t do anything even if he wanted to, do you really think no other manager can do more with the existing squad than Ole?

There’s boardroom level changes that need making, undeniably, but that doesn’t mean Ole should keep his job.

You are missing the point.

Yes someone could come in and do better in the short term. But long-term the board will under invest, giving just enough to challenge for top 4 and then close the cheque book.

The board need to go before the manager.

Okay. So he has to be sacked now. Not even blaming him for the score line. But he’s the manager so he has to hold this.

How can you recover from such a scoreline if you are not SAF? I suppose Southampton did well to stick with Hassenhutl last season but this is Manchester United.

You are talking about a club that stuck in with an inept manager for almost three years. There's zero ambition there.

Ole's untouchable.

Our lot can't properly manage a transfer window and you trust them to be able to appoint a new manager? No matter who we appoint we'll find ourselves back in a thread like this in a couple of seasons unless things change structurally at the top.

You can't point the finger at the board for a woeful start to the season like this. Ole has failed to inspire any sense of belief, failed to coach and set up any sort of capable defensive system despite having many experienced defenders at the club. All he does is let the front 3 play in a fluid system.

Let him go at the end of the season. Glazers don't care what position we get this season so he wont be going anywhere until then.

Under the right management, today could be our version of Bayern's 5-1 thrashing last year by Frankfurt that led to Kovac's sacking and Flick's appointment. We aren't smart enough to know when to cut bait, though.

Yep, who would survive this at any other "top club"?

We haven't been playing Messi and Pep at their peak in the last three league games. It's Palace, Brighton, and Tottenham, the latter has played 4 games in a week.

I'd say the team did great with 3rd position last season (with the proviso that it was a mediocre points total and other teams competing for 3-6th were also poor).

Ole doesn't leave any imprint on the team. This is a team of international superstars and amazing homegrown talent - if you stuck basically any former player in the seat and left the team to it you'd probably get a top 6 finish.

How do we go from being the best team in the league post-lockdown, to this?

The pen against Brighton was the only thing that stopped us from getting 1 point out of 9. It's a disastrous start. 6-1 is a scandal.

The two things are not related.

The manager is not good enough, he needs to go.

Woodward is a clown, and needs to go.

That said, we’ve spent a significant amount of money to build this squad, it’s just been spent very poorly.

If Ole thinks he’s not up to it or has now lost the players then I would like to think he would walk. We’d still be left with a core of spineless players though.

What I don't like about Ole is he shows no reaction on the bench, he just looks deflated.

He's not angry, nor does he have high standards.

Managers like Klopp, Guardiola would be beyond pissed off and those players would be frightened to go in the dressing room after.
