What the feck is "emotional intelligence" As for wanting him out immediatly what is your plan after that? You seem to think we can press some button and Poch will automatically turn up at carrington. The transfer window opens on Thursday. If we get rid of Ole now how would the window turn out when we will spend over half the window looking for a manager?
Cute.
Haha, I’m not a lady - so you’re fine. I mean I think we are a better and bigger club than Tottenham. I’m not entirely sure you can say that if you are the head coach of Spurs, currently leading a team you’ve built, into the CL final. There is clear progression in his project, whether he views that being worth sacking that all in, right now, would be debatable. Hence, why I can’t see it being realistic right now.-We wasn’t trying to get him midway through a season
-if we didn’t hire Ole we wouldn’t be waiting until the end of the season regardless
-We are MANCHESTER UNITED. Finishing 6th is not going to make a manager like Poch turn us down. Did Christiano Ronaldo turn down an inferior Real Madrid? Ronaldinho Barcelona, even Klopp was he turning down 8th place Liverpool. Have some standards man. Get some balls (figuratively speaking you might be a lady) about the club you support.
come again?
We gave permanent appointments to two managers with fabulous CV's (3 CL wins between them), and the other had 11 years as a PL manager under his belt. Is it really so outrageous to try something new and put some faith in Ole? We all have high hopes for inexperienced players like Greenwood, Chong, Garner etc who could very well turn out to be duds but we still back them unconditionally. Same sentiment should be given to the inexperienced Ole, for at least half a season once he's brought in some new faces!
Seems no one wants to acknowledge this, just "they have more experience on their CV's"
You're right on both counts, Pep and Zidane both had very impressive starts and deserved the job full-time, but Ole had a great start as well; up to his permanent appointment. I'm sure it wasn't just a new manager bounce by which we went on that 74% win ratio until the PSG return leg after which we basically collapsed. Ole certainly had his share of the blame (putting too much trust in certain players who didn't deserve it and slow in making substitutions in many instances) but I think the sudden drop in results after he was given the full-time job wasn't totally on him.
Under very similar circumstances?
)..that wont divide as many people as Ole does
I did notice a change in he's face and thought the same thing!Our squad is disgusting in comparison, I suppose they could gamble more because of how good their teams were. But, he still deserves a transfer window and a good few months to see if he can improve the team.
I agree, sometimes you need to take your chances. We have tried the blockbuster CV route twice already without success. Why not try something else now? Who says Ole and United aren't made for each other? We would never know unless we try! He was given the job as caretaker initially and after passing the audition with flying colours, was granted the job full-time, deservedly at the time. I don't agree that we should sack him now without giving him a fair shot.
Nobody seems to give a damn, they want to keep trying the Galactico manager approach. If Ole is shite after being given a fair chance then fine SACK AWAY. At-least if he fails no ex-player will get the job ever again; im sure the Café will be ecstatic about that!
Dunno whether you've noticed but the forum is pretty divided at the moment. I'll just pick the first name off the top of my head as that's what you're so desperate for. Having watched Wolves this season - and specifically the players they have recruited and the commitment they show - if the club had gone through a rigorous recruitment process and identified Nuno as the man best suited to rebuild United, I think more people would be prepared to give him time and money than someone who's only previous PL experience involved relegation, 19 signings and the sack.No, its full of managers that have more experience then Ole. Not managers people genuinely want. Some people might want Howe, where as other will say Bournemouth is his level...
Where other are saying Benitez, realistically he's never going to be United manager & many fans wont even back him (See Chelsea reaction)
After all these replies you simply can't put forward a realistic alternative (not Poch
First of all a dof needs time to set a list of targets and they need a lot more than the measly 2 months that the window is open. Second of all Woodward is never going to give away his power and hire a top quality dof to do his work. Look at the names being mentioned, Rio, Fletcher etc. He want's these type of guys to come in and act as some sort of helping hand to ole while at the end he still remains in his current position.
Our fans should want us to be successful. Fair chance means 1-2 years(even more) down the drain. Most fail to grasp that.
Hello Stupid, maybe read my question again. Clown
There's not a chance in hell he'll be given that long, the Café will be outside his house way before then! Up until Christmas will be the acid test, lets see what he does.
Yea, I agree he is
and that would be an ideal scenario. Some DoF can work in such a limited timeframe. The result might not be as good with more time, but at least we lay a foundation for a better future just like Ajax has done.Thing is if he is in the job come September we will still lose 1-2 years due to his permanent appointment. It's a vicious cycle.
Sacking Ole right now in May and getting in a replacement could also cause a lot of delays. The new manager will want to give them another chance and asses the players again during the season. At least Ole right now has his mind made up about who's going or staying. It's just going to cause more and more instability, I'd like to give him a fair crack at it. No new manager comes in and does great immediately you can look around at any manager if you need examples. Ole won his first 10+ games which is unprecedented. The team were incapable of keeping up the intensity and are just mentally fragile little guppies.
