15th after 6 games. Ole has to go! Forget champions league wins. He’s tactically useless and we’re closer to being relegated than we are actually winning the league.

Subs were horrendous.

Fred and mct arent good enough on the ball.

Even Neville was criticising the tactics after the subs.

This is the future, every time we win with Ole-in knobheads bumping the thread, when we lose we have the Ole-out knobheads bumping the thread. Forever and ever and ever.
This thread was created by a troll to annoy those who don't share his opinion. It is only right to bump it to point out how much of a tit he looks now.

Reactionary threads based on single performances are always a bad idea.

It was a clown thread when it was created, and unfortunately, I see it being bumped frequently in the future, not because of "tactical masterclass", but the opposite.

You try and say anything after a win against Leipzig and you're told to give it a rest and just to enjoy the win. Ole deserve criticism today. Absolutely awful tactician who doesn't have a clue. We should replace him with someone who actual can coach a team.

The masterclasses are just luck where we can counterattack.

The true Ole is tactically inept and the in-game management is a joke.

Mediocrity. Enjoy it, guys.
Not even medicore.. It's below par shit time and time again. An odd good result here and there followed by the same crap week after week. It's become so fecking predictable at this point theres literally no point in even watching as you can just easily predict the results.

9 points in 6 games. What a manager. Manchester United is the only big club that will not only tolerate the manager in charge of that but celebrate him because he beat an "elite hipster choice" manager. Will managerial appointments like Ole it will definitely be 20 years as Giggs said.
It's bizarre isn't it. No one forced OP to say things like "Ole is proving to be one of the best tactical brains in world football" and yet he chose to jump right in. :lol:

So when we cant counter, what are we capable of?

Clueless when we had the ball

In all seriousness, what was the strategy today?
Not to have any movement in midfield when Maguire/Lindelof had the ball?
Not have any runs on the wings
Play pogba who clearly didn’t want the ball

I’m not one to criticise Ole usually but fairs fair he got pretty much everything wrong today. Formation was not working, he didn’t look to change it early enough and his subs were baffling.

Another tactical masterclass by not creating a single chance against Arsenal defence?
Perhaps it was a masterclass but he was just out-masterclassed by Arteta. Seriously winning a match doesn't make every manager a tactical genius. No one was calling Tony Pulis a tactical genius when he had the best top 6 record in the bottom half for years

Tactical ingenuity is reflected in a manager's philosophy not at full time after single game results

UTD! I am not fond of the Glazers.
I dont get Ole at all. Everytime we see us start badly, no intensity or the game plan is not working nothing happens, no reaction. Today after 20, every single eye pair that was watching the game saw that its not working. The game plan was not working, the players were sluggish, no rhytm and Ole does not react. I am baffled.

We have 7 points from a possible 18 and have played utterly abysmal football in every minute of every league game save for one half against Newcastle.

This thread is the anomaly not the reaction.

Not sure what that set up was from us at the end. Subs should have been made at HT. Fred and Mct were both shit. VDB and Matic should have been coming on for both.

I thought we had 9 points. Turns out, it's been worse, we have 7 points in 6. Bloody hell.

When Ole gets it right at least some posters like myself admit it....

But will OP say Ole got it wrong today? If not, then we can't take these posters serious at all as they are too delusional and would rather Ole first than the team, performance or result.

We are just Banter FC at this stage. How the feck is 15th in the league acceptable. This is easily the worst the club has sunk since Fergie left.

Make your own thread! This one was about the game vs Leipzig

Life comes at you pretty fast...

He’s just not the man. No United manager should ever set up this negative in a home game. Twice in a row he’s played for a draw, he got it against Chelsea but it cost his today.

Opposition fans unanimously want us to keep Ole. That tells you all you need to know.

Any real United fan wants him gone so the club can go forward.

He only knows how to tell us to counter... thats it. 0 build up play. 0 progression up the pitch. 0 creativity against a set team. It's only play it quick after we are attacked and hope Rashford or Martial do something

Ole is proving to be one of the best tactical brains in world football. Give him the right quality of players and a little time, and he's be spanking them all.

Won in the champions league, he’s a genius. Lost the next game, Ole out. story of our lives recently.

He hasn’t got a clue. Starts with yet another new formation with no width. We couldn’t beat the press in the first half. At half time his master plan was to move Pogba to left wing. A position he has never played. How could he look at that first half performance and not want to change anything. Take players off to show that type of performance is not acceptable.

And the same as every other game he’s managed the subs come on past the 70th minute giving them little time to make an impact.

Why did he sub Fred for Matic? Why is Luke Shaw now taking corners?

I can’t wait for him to go. He keeps getting results to save his job but over the course of a season there is so much more crap than good.

This set of players could achieve something but they need a decent manager to get the best out of them.

Good day for you? Rejoicing in a United loss.

Natural people will bump this after a parody thread name like that.
United fans loving united losing. Yeah right. And nothing wrong with thread title. Leipzig was a famous tactical win.

Are you not somewhat concerned that his tactical decisions are adversely effecting the team?
