KaKa Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 It's going to be a tough one for him that's for sure. James, Coleman, Digne and Holgate all return. Ouch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happinesstan Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 The owners don't care about a plan or discipline. They care about money. There is no legitimate talk about Ole being sacked except from Samuel Luckhurst, who has never got a thing right with the club and is one of the worst sources going. Saying the Glazers aren't at fault for the state of Man United is like saying Ashley isn't at fault for the state Newcastle is in. It's simply not true. Like Samptime says, 14 games unbeaten last year, two semi finals, and finished third. The away win against PSG broke the club record for away wins with 10. The previous record was 9, set by Ole. All of a sudden after 6 league games there's no hope? (I assume the league is the focus, because we're through in the cup and are top of a difficult CL group). Hasn't he also got the best we've ever seen out of Rashford and Martial? And also brought Greenwood through well last season. Pogba is the one guy really letting him down right now and the central defenders are bad, and we're not improved upon, which he wanted I believe. Rashford and Martial both had their best seasons by far under Ole. Fred and McTominay have also been brilliant under him. Matic has had a resurgence and got a new deal. Maguire is a balloon. He wasn't an Ole signing. Ole wanted Upamecano and Sancho if good sources are to be believed. Obviously everyone wants Sancho and Upamecano, so it's not a revelation for Ole to be interested in them but they both had a price and we went elsewhere. I don't think Ole even wanted Van de Beek given how little he's played him. I believe Lindelof is a good player but no matter who plays beside Maguire they get isolated and look awful. Tuanzebe went from having Mbappe in his pocket partnering Lindelof and Shaw to looking like a school child against Demba Ba when partnering Maguire. Ole makes plenty of mistakes like. Pogba shouldn't be near the team. I agree 100% with that opening line, which is why I'm surprised you are okay with it. Apart from a brief adulation of Stevie Coppell, I've always hated Man U, and it has always been envy. Emulating their success over the past 30 years is the wildest fantasy of any football fan, now it seems they're happy to just be part of the top 6 and compete with the PL for more money.

Dr.Spaceman Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 In a league where we've recently seen Marcelo Bielsa manage, these lot consider the ex-Southend manager who finished there with a 17.4 win percentage. Good luck with that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Did a good job at Macclesfield. Southend have got a huge amount of debt so I'm not sure he had much of a chance Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Spaceman Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Fair play, I guess if your desperate for something you sometimes don't have much choice. Surely they've got to go for Paul Cook though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiresias Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Yeah from what I remember he didnt do too badly in pretty awful circumstances with Macclesfield, and Southend in horrendous state. Sheff Wed may be a big step up but I don't think it's unreasonable to think he may do better in a club without quite so huge off field problems. May be disaster, his personality does seem to clash with a lot but as said the Macclesfield results weren't bad iirc all things considered. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Southend haven’t won a game this season in the league below so he was on a bit of a hiding to nothing with them. Hard to say whether he’s any good or not, be interested to see. As has been said Paul Cook would be a sound appointment too or Pearson if he’s fully fit again, used to play for them IIRC.

Dinho lad Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Must be after a new job, he's done the full circuit with interviews. You obviously didn't the article, did you? He's ok but still recovering. Not the first time you've misjudged him; I remember your presumption that he was a Brexiter and your surprise when you found out that he wasn't! Silly to think that just because he is a PFM (although he probably isn't!). Also, I wonder what his motive here: https://www.ucfb.ac.uk/news/ucfb-news-hub/nigel-pearson-on-the-importance-of-mental-health-support/ Yeah, he might have called a journalist an ostrich (possibly justified!) and grabbed a player by the neck and shirt, but I don't think there was necessarily any malice in it. No malice in gripping a player and choking him? It was extremely weird, if not malice then what was it? It was nothing more than 'acting tough' behaviour, nothing violent and malicious. Even McArthur was smiling with him by the end of it. I believe the FA didn't see a justification to take any action against him apart from warning him of his future responsibilities.
