In mid-March. Maybe a blessing in disguise?

How the feck has it come to this? No cups in sight and top 4 all but gone.

Get Ten Haag in now. No point waiting until end of the season. Pay the money and he will come.
 
9 games left, but they mean very little. The season is well and truly done
 
Play the kids.

Who cares if we lose every game, it means we won't be in the conference League at least!
 
Only 9 games until the pain stops for a month or 2? :drool:
 
Funny to think of how the season started and how happy everyone was after our transfer window. Now look at us, totally dejected and miserable from yet another season of appalling performances. I don't even know how it's possible to be so bad after how much we spend, but somehow we continue to excel at it

Well Ajax have also gone out. No better, is he?
 
But weren't you happy to see Tom Brady at Old Trafford? That's worth a few trophies.
 
I don't remember when was the last time the last game of the season for me was in March.
 
Season was already over anyway, the CL was the only source of entertainment left. Lets be honest even if we got through tonight we would have been out the next round.

I'm actually on board with this suggestion. Let him take a good look at who is willing and not willing to make a positive contribution on the pitch. And when summer comes, adjust the squad appropriately. It will take several years do reverse the damage Ole has done, but we might as well start that work right here, right now.
 
Blood some youngsters now. Pogba, Lingard and Rashford can take a seat for the rest of the season. Surely we have a young CB who we can give game time to?
 
Play the kids and I hope we miss out on Europe completely. Total rebuild over the summer, which we won't do because we have shit owners. We're fecked.

There's actually zero point of Rangnick being here until the end of the season. He's just as useless as his predecessor.
 
A little Alejandro, in my life.
A little bit of Vitek, by my side
A little bit of Hugill is all I need
A little bit of McNeill is what I see
A little bit of Mainoo in the sun
A little bit of Mejbri all night long
A little bit of Shotire, here I am
A little bit of Isak Hansen-Aarøen
 
Top 4 doesn’t matter a feck, I’ve been on record here saying that. Unless you’re a contender to win then it means very little. Look at our last few CL campaigns and tell me you enjoyed it.

He just isn't though. He wouldn't have spent hundreds of millions building this shower of shit team because he actually knows how he wants to play, unlike Solskjaer
 
I’d prepare to lose games now to avoid Europa and that daft Conference league. Do an Arsenal and allow us to build with just the league games to focus. No point trying Europe until we can battle the Premier League imo.
 
Well, it is obvious that OGS was not the only problem. 500 mil pounds spent and we cant get top 4..wasted money, wasted season, wasted future.

Are you being serious? Its worrh 30 to 40m at the group stage. Money talks in this world.

Unfortunately the F.A. can fine you for that sort of thing, otherwise I'd be all for it. But there should definitely be a few debuts before the end of the season (in otherwise strong sides)

Take the fine. It's time to blood the kids and get rid of the old ones or soon to be free agents.

I have. It's probably the years of the shitty Europa League that's made me appreciate the UCL nights even more (even the group stage games). I was more excited about tonight's game than last seasons EL final

No wonder going into it with Ole knowing we won't win shit
 
I am so lucky the people I work with don't give a feck about football, otherwise the banter would have been nuclear.

your last two posts have been about Ole and yet it's the RR detractors who are obsessed with him....

Wow so my last two posts have been about Ole :lol:. I think half the posts in the whole Rangnick thread is you talking out of your arse about him.
 
So much for a culture reset OGS has saddled up with yet more deadwood

Play the kids. Establish what stage they are at eg ready to start for first team, be on bench, loan and if so what level, or more time in youth. You never know we may find someone who can step up and reduce a need for an incoming, allowing the money to be spent elsewhere

I do not want to see the likes of Maguire, Rashford, Lingard et Al on the pitch again.

Gut the entire structure of the club and put in place one that is equivalent to that of a modern football club. Copy Liverpool or City if you have to. Stop with the jobs for mates, recruit externally if you have to, to get people who are outstanding at what they do. Start now so those needed eg dof can be involved in choosing a manager

Complete a thorough review of the scouting network. When was the last time we signed a diamond in the rough for peanuts who became a first team mainstay. Establish the reasons for this. Make decision on how to proceed based on this.

Start fitness work now. I'm sick of them actually pressing for about 10 minutes then dropping off

During the league cup final they spoke about some mentality coach Klopp got in almost as soon as he started to work with the players. Pay this man whatever it takes to come work with those we are keeping.

Set up a proper wage structure with clear requirements to move to the top level. Preferably with multiple performance criteria and regular performance management
