Care to compare that Spurs side to the Ajax side at that time?
And we forget everything else he did till the SF's conveniently enough?
Emergency Board Meeting called to discuss the future of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer

Probably for the best. Our on-the-pitch organisation is terrible and it can't all be blamed on the manager. The head coach (or whatever it is Phelan does) needs to take some responsibility as well.
His team did, we blame Ole for similar mistakes.
Not arguing over that but he thinks that's our only option and as you said, he's as likely to come as Zidane - not at all.
Last few months have been a slog. I didn’t think of any of it as a waste. I’m not sure I’m a top red but I’ve enjoyed the last three years, by and large. Either way I’m not sure trying to blame the fans for a shitty run of results is rational. I don’t think a massive rebuild is required, a couple of decent CMs will make a big difference.
People are happy enough to do that for Ole, so why not?
If he can't get things done despite being given near unlimited resources at PSG - a club for whom he was a player, why would he be any happier at United?
Ok lets go through it then:
Mazraoui - decent player
Daley Blind- Considered by the majority here as deadwood
De Ligt- Largely underwhelming for Juve
Tagliafico- Decent nothing special
De Jong- Good Player hasn't exactly pulled up trees at Barca
Schone- Decent player.
If you consider that team fantastic, we should be winning the treble this season mate.
The one that won, after being 3-1 down with 40 minutes to go, had Fernando Llorente playing up front.
Looks to be over for Ole and a fair few of them. But these are just the necessary public sacrifices to appease the fans before the Glazers can get their next body shield in place.
Any top manager would demand changes to the club setup and infrastructure that they simply won't grant. So we will end up with someone else whose ultimately just pleased to have the opportunity and stick it out for as long as possible.

What do the club see in Carrick? Why has Phelan (someone who's actually seen success with the club) been axed yet Carrick (a constant with our recent managerial failures) being allegedly trusted with an interim role.
I guess people should respect Castles as a legitimate source now then.
I wish we'd sacked him in the summer.
Would have been better for everyone.

54% win rate in the Champions League with Ajax. Averaging 2 goals a game, conceding 1 a game.
To put that into perspective. Antonio Conte has a win rate of 35%, 12 wins in 34 games despite managing at Juventus, Chelsea and Inter. Pochettino has a win rate of 46% in the Champions League, despite managing at Tottenham and PSG. Bit unfair to quote Brendans numbers but given he's linked to the job, feck it. He's got a 11% win rate in the Champions League with Liverpool, Celtic. Pep Guardiola has a 64% win rate, Tuchel 63%, Zidane 60%, Klopp 55%.
In terms of European football, he's excellent. In the 7 games he's lost, they've all been by a 1 goal margin too. Never once has his team been spanked.
Broken clock and all that. Plus you could have guessed most of the things he said, - hardly a scoop.
You haven't got a clue have you mate? Be honest do you even really watch football?
He started on the bench though. In comparison for example Ten Hag subbed on Sinkgraven who you would have to google to know anything about.
Tell me more, football Cassandra.
Said things that nobody else reported whichever way you want to spin it...
Fans are at fault because they lower the standards even further, which means the board can enjoy the free ride as well.
As for rebuild - it hugely depends on the next manager, but we do need a RB, CB, LB(at least a backup, but considering Shaw's form this season...), not one but two CM's and a #9(both our options are 35-37 years olds).
We need to ship players like Jones, Bailly, Mata, Martial, Fred, Telles, one of the 5 GK's we currently have in the first team,etc. That qualifies for a rebuild in my book.
I take it almost reaching double relegation with Cardiff was something to brag about? Or the title in Norway in 2011?
We are happier now obviously cus we're not ole fc, we're MUFC
Looks like it’s going to be Fletcher and Carrick then, I’m just praying it’s only for one game until we find a more suitable option.
Why? He lied about Zidane, and anyone could have seen Ole would be sacked.
People are completely deluded when it comes to Castles. He wouldn’t be in the position he’s in without genuine sources. He’s called so many things correctly on his podcast as well.
Impressive., manages a great team with with not much pressure however.
Literally nothing to do with what I said, as you well know.
Just wait and see what happens after Fletcher and Carrick get a win at Villareal next week followed by a 0-1 close thing loss at Chelsea, followed by a 0-0 we didn't lose at home to Arsenal and then a 1-0 win against Palace.
Doesn't bear thinking about does it?

Enlighten me why a Cardiff / Molde experienced manager got the job
ten hag compared to ole is a no contest at any level
Agreed.
Our coaching has been dreadful, as alluded to by so many fans.
Carrick and McKenna need to be moved away from the senior team.
From what I hear Fletcher is also part of the coaching setup, in which case, he should also be kept away from the senior team.
Our current coaches are dreadful and should be axed or moved away from the senior team.
Delaney is absolutely fecking clueless.
I'd pay zero attention to anything he says.
Hahahahaha
Carrick speaking in press conferences…

How many of Ajax's players have you heard of prior to that game?
Get Carrick and the rest of them out ffs
Useless

Fletcher ? What the feck has he done so far that warrant an interim position. And what is his position again ? Technical Director ? Has any technical director ever become interim manager ? Seems so random and stupid
Carrick should be outed as well.
The entire coaching staff should be sacked.
