The way we play and the way we approach managerial appointments are the same. Waiting for something to happen, rather than going out and making it happen.

So we are really not winning the league for 20 more years at least.
Id be surprised if Conte went to Spurs. Hes like Jose, he wants what he wants, and he wants a chequebook to get it. Dealing with purse strings Levy wont be appealing to him at all.
If he does go, it will end in tears.

Support the team and stop putting energy into #oleout
Not taking Conte is a pretty clear indication Ole is here for a while now.

I didn‘t make a thread called “so what do we do know”You really can't make a thread called "so what do we do know" when your username is "wilt".
All sources are indicating that the Glazers, after snubbing Conte, are keen on Brendan Rodgers.
Because he's an abrasive personality that focusses on short term success and then resigns at the first , often under a bad cloud (we've had one already and it ended in disaster) - that isn't a huge issue for a club with a good club structure, DOF, and clear long term direction. We have non of those things. So he'd be back to square one in 2 or 3 years.
We've built a team that is player or two away from being able to boast a
Yep, no way is Ole going anywhere, not until top 4 is mathematically out of reach, or unless 'Liverpool' is repeated a couple more times.
I don't feel any desire from the board to make a change, and I think they only have eyes for Pochettino anyway.
List of preferences of managers "available" now (available I would class as managers who there is some hope would leave current club for United, even if not fully realistic to be instant, or international managers, but those who haven't allegedly also said to be not interested like Zidane):
- Roberto Mancini
- Luis Enrique
- Erik Ten Hag
- Graham Potter
- Brendan Rodgers
- Mauricio Pochettino
Conte won't accept Spurs until Ole has gotten through City and the CL game.
Let's see that first. If he gets sacked through that then Conte will run to us.
If it doesn't happen then Ole gets the sack at the end of the season then we go for Ten Hag hopefully instead.

Why does it bother you what I say? I'm allowed to express my opinion and if we already have a thread discussing something, why do we need another one.
Can you enlighten me please about the style of football our board love please ?
We had 4 managers with sh*t on stick style of football. The only difference is Ole is talking about DNA and attacking football, but doesn’t know how to play it.
When I see that Rodgers or Poch are the options, I am so depressed as their style of football is not winning football and they are badly struggling actually.
Leicester and PSG are playing sh*t so that is probably on line with the board philosophy…
Which if he doesn't get CL they will probably get him.
Accept a 4th place finish, a quarterfinal CL exit, and an FA cup final loss.
You’d honestly think Conte was the 2nd coming of Fergie with the tears on here.
Most likely it’ll be a caretaker till summer when Ole eventually gets sacked.

See how the rest of the season goes (I think the Glazers will see it out unless we have several big defeats/crash out of Europe)...
If we improve/top 4/win something, Ole likely stays...
If we don't win anything/not in top 4, Ole gets replaced by Ten Hag, Potter, Poch, who knows...
Support team in the meantime...

WE GO AGAIN! It’s what we do a the ‘biggest club in the world’.
Caretaker manager? What would be the point? We have that now anyway. It was always Conte and no one else in the running. Now we wait till end of season at minimum.
We're talking about the Man Utd hierarchy, right? What do you think is a more believable reason of the two you mentioned.
We are going in circles. How many times we have to improve under Ole ? Every season there is a crisis. But there is no progress.
Match going fans should act. We are waiting for far too long, it will be 10 years soon. No standards are required from anyone at the club : board, manager, players, fans. The former 3 are happy to collect the money and the fans are stuck in the past.
No big club would accept that but us.
Maybe we should hire Nuno once Ole is done and we can have the match going fans clap him as well 
I think the scene was already set when we won handily at the weekend. Unless there's a radical change of fortunes in the coming week I think Ole is here for the season. Given a free run at four or five managers the Board were never going to go with Conte.
Thays a disgrace! We all know Steve Bruce is next in lineMaybe we should hire Nuno once Ole is done and we can have the match going fans clap him as well
He's not the second coming and I doubt Spurs will win a league title under him. Conte is among the best five or six managers in the world, though, and he's freely available and wants the United job - the tears are largely because United deciding not to take up the option of Conte is a fairly clear indication that Ole will be here until at least the summer, which is not the news that 86.5% of the Caf want to hear.
It is also yet another team with a top manager that we now have to compete with in our own backyard.
How much difference does it make?
We're going to keep Ole and then finish 5th or 6th. Sack Ole in the summer and hire Brenton.
Brenton is then going to get hounded out of the club within a year.

my dream.The best available manager. I would take that over what we are served now. Which manager do you think would be available in 6 months' time if we look for a new manager, who'd be a better bet than Conte?
I am not a big fan of Pochettino at all, Rodgers has some significant weaknesses but would achieve more than Ole.
Nothing. That's how we do things. We think and think about every decision. Besides, the owners gave the players the Spurs game and players responded brilliantly re-enforcing their support for Ole.
In absence of any sort of planning or vision for club, game results are the only way we decide whether someone is fit for the job or not.

This is what you get when you run the club on nepotism and as Fergie fiefdom.
The rot has spread deeper than we think.

We'll hire deluded Rodgers. He'll spend two years talking about the United DNA and tradition which will make the class of 92 cream their pants and we'll win sweet feck all.
Same here. He’s a nutter. He’s going to fail at Spurs just like Jose. He could have been great here but it was a big risk. I can see why the board don’t want another angry manager.
The same Maguire that Pep wanted?
Either Maguire doesn’t belong in that list, or you don’t consider Pep a progressive-thinking manager.
Steve Bruce....
and I'm not fecking joking either, we are a circus so might aswell continue the "United DNA" or whatever the feck that is anymore

True, but it is Spurs.
Or Maguire hasn't developed as we all expected.
Let him go.
He'll get pissed off with Levy not giving him what he wants and walk in a year anyway.
His combustible behaviour at other clubs is exactly why he should never be let in the door at Utd. Let him have his meltdowns at other clubs.

Nothing will change, we will heat city, Chelsea and lose a bunch to the lesser teams and we will be right back where we started…this board gives me more headaches than the wife
Of course sods law now dictates that we'll lose the next two games heavily, Ole will be sacked, and we won't be able to find a replacement.
