Sorry but the only reason it’s quiet is because if you say something people will jump on you to say that you are moaning even after a win . This game showed me nothing that I don’t already know about Ole’s United

Yes. Everyone in the matchday thread was complaining about Fred giving the ball away, Ole brings on the midfield option who can give stability, keep possession and make a pass. Everyone freaks out.
Ole made a good sub. Even if it didn't work out it made sense.
You watched a different match.
We played really well today at West Ham's ground, completely dominated bar the odd defensive mistake.
We should have won handsomely..
.Ronaldos miss ..penalty that was not given
Exactly. Tactically nothing different, we're a mess.
I just want to enjoy the win.
When he manages a game well I'll say it.
He is easily the luckiest manager on this planet or from any manager I have seen. I can’t believe there is anyone that will doubt that as it has been said many times already. De Gea saving a 2 points penalty against Noble? Unprecedented. Science can not explain his luck and it should definetly help him win something. On the another positive note, he made the right decision keeping Lingard and with the subs today. Other than that, with the players he has and the luck he composes, it has the formula to achieve something significant this season.
He delayed it though. Fred was embarrassing from minute 1.
Good win against a tough side.
Can he show some anger in the post match for once? Having a go at Atkinson would be a start.
As of now I am the 18th post since full time. (Roughly)
by that time on Tuesday there was six pages of posts.
I want every United fan who claims that we didn't deserve to win today(or that we were lucky) banned for agenda posting.
He played again with McFred despite having top squad. That and his subs later showed that he is happy with point in these kind of games. With that thinking you don't challenge for title.
He had AWB right back in, subs on Jesse when we need a goal. Players must love him.
Genuine question.
Based on today I’d say that we had two stonewall penalties not given against us.
We hit the post, missed an obvious clear cut chance and that’s with two of our best attacking talents injured.
Why is that lucky?
We looked flat for 20 minutes at the end, but was comfortably on top for the rest of it. 2 penalties turned down, hit the post, Ronaldo messed up when clean through on goal, most shots on target by a team in the first half this season. Absolutely no way anyone can say we didn't deserve to win that. The only reason West Ham was in it was a horrible deflected shot.
Can you just enjoy the win instead of immediately begin to sulk?
We had 20 shots today, 10 on goals, at least 2 penalties that were not given and 65% possession. That is more than enough to win football matches.
The previous manager in Manchester United that was worth anything, Sir Alex Ferguson, became famous for the phrase Fergie time in which the team got known for clutching the win, or a draw far into overtime. Not every god damn game is going to be played like its only one team on the pitch. We won deservedly today.
It's legitimately so exhausting when even our own fans can't be happy and positive when we win.
But only because people go to extremes
We have just won, why is the first thought negative? Why not talk about the good (at least first) and bad?
You can bet if we didn't win there would be questions on bringing on Matic and lingard, but they were the two who linked up for the winner
I do think that’s massive actually, if Jesse is banished for three/four games this becomes a big thing. Now Tuesday basically didn’t happen.
Never understood that "deserve" thing. There is no deserved or not. Team who scored more goals (IF other team is not robbed by ref), deserves a win.
You mean like making substitutions that lead to the winner? Or does that not count as management now?
Its funny you say you want to enjoy the win, yet are still in here being negative
You clearly want to say ole out but have masked it with a bunch of words to act like you're celebrating
Weird considering your first thought after the win was to post here and call others out
Don't be pedantic. The word "deserve" functions as a shorthand for "created more chances" and "had the initiative" etc. You know this.
I was questioning Matic's introduction but it so happened that he played a superb ball through the lines to Lingard who went on to score.
Good subs, Ole!
Good subs, Ole!
If anything the lingard goal summed up Ole as a manager. He was on for 20 minutes and barely touched the ball . There seemed to be no plan at all as to what his role was and then he bangs one it from the edge of the box and somehow I am supposed to praise Ole for that
Actually my first posts were in the lingard and ddg threads
Then this appeared at the top of the performances thread and it only had a few posts compared to me doing the same on Tuesday
We have top defence this year and top attack. Why we need to play with McFred? I don't understand that.
For me a massive thing about Ole is how positive the squad feels.
Having the away fans roar for him as he goes over and start chanting his name - the match going fans are fully behind him and we are producing great results.
Momentum can’t be defined in football but it feels like we have it now. Coming from behind in games isn’t ideal- I’d rather we go 2/3 up but teams are shit scared of us after they go 1 up. A few years ago West Ham would be going for a second or a third. Today they’ve gone defensively immediately.

I know it still hurts for you that overated Pochettinho didn't get job here but come on. Blaming wins on luck.
Sceince explains a lot if you look where we have been and in what direction we are going. If you believe in real science and not "flat earth" science.
Yeah, he's so lucky that his players are doing what they're supposed to. How lucky can the lucky elf get?
The ref was awful today. Fantastic win though. Made the right call with the subs this time.
You're the one who came to this thread to pick up fights with other posters instead of actually celebrating the win.
Grow up a little bit.
It was not aimed at you. People often throw that "deserve" thing based on shots and possession stuff. As i said; who scored more, deserved to win. Simple.
He did very well today despite the shocking refereeing. The thing I wished he should have done that he put some pressure on the fecking referee.
Stonewall penalties? If it was stonewall, Var would have overturned the referee decision. It wasn’t stonewall.
Two of our best attacking talent? Ronaldo, Greenwood, Bruno, Pogba was all playing. Not sure what you on about. Unless one of these players have a dip in form, none of our other attackers are replacing them. Unless you are talking about Antonio for West ham? With the chance you say we missed, same can be said with west ham. The penalty miss was the clearest chance of the game That wasn’t converted
I'll remember that the next time I hear "patterns of play" and "tactically clueless"
You didnt mention micky mouse cup in your post, I'm disappointed.
Also can you remember their chances? Few at least?
This will hurt some posters till next week. Feel sorry for them.
Don't take that poster seriously.
Deserved win today. Great subs.
Amadeus - I’m just gonna start reporting you for wumming at this point. Pretending that you don’t know who Rashford is or that wasn’t an obvious penalty just takes it too far. I get it’s fun to have a pantomime villain but you’re making it too obvious.
