I know exactly how mad it sounds.. and it's even more unlikely than it is mad. wenger would never do it! but who we gonna get? Some old lag? Fergie's the obvious choice but that's as likely as wenger
I was alluding unto the fact that he wasn’t really needed, and the money could have been invested in midfield. The team has looked further unbalanced with him so it will be interesting to see how another manager approaches that.
I do off course appreciate his goals and moments of magic and he’s only 1 of a multitude of issues
Ronny didn't do it at Juve either. He's just not going to be able to do it at that age. It's called intensive for a reason.
The fact that nobody did it under Ole is irrelevant. He was a PE teacher (ffs can we turn that thing off now?
).He really ,really doesn't.
Oh well maybe I'm wrong then. He seemed to be doing the defensive stuff pretty well when I saw him.
A "come and get me" if I ever saw one...
Am I also the only one in thinking that he looks like a magician/illusionist?
Fair point. I just don't recall that we were seriously linked with any good CM/DM, so I doubt we signed him at the expense of another player.
Can't deny that he's been a contributing factor to our bad form, but it's hard to blame him when he's almost single handedly kept us in the CL.
I think Ole's "luck" just ran out. We have had awful periods under him before - especially the final months of his first season (18/19) was woeful.
Because I can’t see a manager who’s in a job accept a caretaker role for us until end of the season without the assurances he’d have next season as well.
One of Lewandowski's greatest strengths is his uncanny ability to find himself in the right place at the right time. Of his 183 Bundesliga goals, no fewer than 171 have been scored from inside the penalty area, including 27 of his 29 strikes in 2017/18
He may come deep to get the ball but his stats prove where he is effective and what he requires. My point still stands. The top teams give goalscorers the ball. It what they work for, the end result, the point of the game. Ronaldo running around everywhere is pointless. The top strikers don't press. Again a few years ago you would be talking about another system.press all you like but you need to give strikers the opportunity.
It wouldn't be a caretaker role would it?
Rangnick has a job at Lokomotiv no?
I think you're right, completely forgot about that
Ronaldo is not that guy anymore. Central is where he is best. He just needs better service from the team, not just Bruno.
So he should choo choo choose us
Well United have said that they are looking for an interim manager until end of the season - same way we did with Ole, who ended up getting the full job after exceeding expectations.
The candidates we want are in a job and won’t leave mid-season (Poch, Ten Hagg) - I don’t see us saying “oh well” and not go for them in the summer. Hence why we are looking for a caretaker.
I thought this was well documented?
I know, right?
She just cranky
Basically he said: Come and get me.
Why is ten hag more favored over galtier?
Yeah and it is a stupid idea amongst a whole host of previous stupid ideas. The best managers have jobs, oh well guess we have to pick someone who is out of work because they are out of work because they are so good , because we don't know what we are doing!
Champions league. Jardim was also more famous than Galtier because of his performance in champions league
I'm not convinced one way or the other but what do people have against Poch? Did pretty well for Spurs and is now managing the biggest bunch of egos in the world at PSG which seems such an odd fit for a guy who likes hard-working teams that can run and press like madmen.
On the plus side, he's handsome, he's got lovely hair and we can chant "ARGENTINA, ARGENTINA" at matches. What's not to like about that????

Probably because Galtier only just joined Nice this summer.
As if he won't leave nice for United.
He will but the club would need to pay more to get Galtier probably since ten hag contract expired in 2023.
I don't think that's relevant. Manager compensation are not huge to make a difference if he wants to come.
Plus nice are owned by Jim ratcliffe whose a Childhood United fans if it matters.
It’s glazers. Even if it means ten hag will save them 1m in comparison to Galtier then they will take the 1m cheaper. Nice owner is irrelevant imo, United will still need to respect the manager’s contract and need to pay for it if they want to get them.
Here in Vigo nobody expected Celta to stay for half of the classification, the objective was permanence and not to struggle if it could be.
Finishing ninth was a great achievement. 9/10
Pedro was not in the season of promotion or in which he was third.
The Spanish second division is tough, especially for such a young team, L. Enrique did an excellent job
Wow. That's definitely football language for Im interested but cant say I am
Please be Ten Hag.
It’s gonna be Mickey Carrick, isn’t it? Wins a couple of matches, gets it until the end of the season, and then for life.

think ten hag is a great choice. Even if he doesnt work out it shows us going for an actual style that we want to see brought in. Get a good support around him with bringing in the right players, and think if in 3-5 years it hasnt worked out most of the fans will be understanding that at least we tried to go a positive direction
For the love of god just stay away from another Ole type managerial appointment. No more good ole boys who only managerial qualifications are that they played here once.

Just like how Ole had it for life?
Sky reporting “Rooney would find it difficult to turn down”
Really don't want the Zidane to PSG and us get Poch scenario.
I hope from that ten Hag interview it means he's certainly interested and we start conversations asap.

If Ten Hag wants the job then it's a no brainer really.
Hire someone on the up. Hire someone who wants the job. Hire someone who's current club dont want to lose them.
Dont hire managers out of work. Dont hire managers who are close to getting the sack or have just been sacked.

Shouldn't the question of the poll match the thread title? Remove caretaker as an option.

Well ultimately Poch is in a large group of trendy managers who have ultimately failed, but have failed in style. At United, you need to get over the line. He’s walker up to that line a number of times, and then turned back. Rogers, up until his FA Cup win, was similar (I’m not counting him continuing Celtic’s traditions of winning the league every season). He ultimately failed at Liverpool, and failed spectacularly with Leicester to get them over the line in the top 4 two seasons in a row when it looked harder for him to miss out. Nobody would forgive such at United just because he has us passing the ball.
The fact that Poch even manager to fail to win the league in France with PSG is damning, to me. It’s a near open goal.
Could he get our team to press?
I liked his Rennes team, a lot of hardworking players.
