Seems that we needed Sancho-Dembélé, Dybala and/or Rakitic-Eriksen this summer.

Same players than nailed Chelsea two weeks ago are playing like scared Championship weasels today...against Palace! At OT!

Ole is the problem? With this lot, even Pep would struggle to finish 4th-6th.

The Chelsea result flattered the performance greatly - as is the case with a great many of Ole's results.

And Guardiola with this squad would be easily finishing Top 4 and playing very good footy, without a doubt.

He wouldn't be using the same players as Ole is, and he would have managed the last 6 months differently of course - but that's on Ole.

Not this rhetoric again, fans weren't saying this when defending our joke of our transfer window, championing how everyone was going to come good
 
Honestly don't wanna blame him, he needed 2 more midfielders and he didn't get them. Board sold him up the river.
 
When you see threads like these bumped 3 games into the season without the 3rd game not even finished and having seen the team prasied, performance wise for the 1st two games, you know people just have an agenda...

I disagree with that I believe any one of Poch, Pep and Klopp would get more consistency out this team. The squad is imbalanced but it's still got enough quality to be competitive. Klopp got Liverpool to two UCL finals and pushed city to the wire with a very average midfield. It doesn't matter if we had Modric, Pogba and Rakitic in the midfield, if Solskjaer doesn't accommodate them tactically they cannot perform. You cannot Ronaldinho trick your way through a packed defence it takes a team effort.
 
Its absolutely MAD that we are relying on Wan Bissaka to both be our best defender, and create all of our chances. Lingard is fecking terrible oh my lord

Of course you have to blame him for something, he's the manager after all, not a yes man for Woodward. If we wanted a midfielder he should have gotten one. Also we shouldn't need 2 new midfielders to tactically out fox a Palace side that are weaker than last season, at home. No excuses with these players.
 
These are the game he should be judged by, and today he has failed thus far. Starting the likes of Lingard is just inexcusable.

So patronizing - like he's fecking baby or something.

He's the manager of Manchester United, he's flat out defended the board this Summer and asked for fans to not complain about the Glazers.

He's also had 150m of investment and kept Pogba, and given 'Rashy' a fecking whopping great CF contract.

This is OGS' team, playing OGS' football.
 
Need to see how he reacts to the Lingard situation. If he persists with him it’ll be his undoing, but he’s took him off after 55 minutes today so he can clearly see how ineffective he’s been.
 
Game isn't even finished yet

I mean in general I don't rate his in game management and it isn't much different here. But the board didn't provide the players we needed. 2 midfielders were a must and the board left us I'll equipped to achieve anything this season.

The investment wasn't enough, not that Ole is perfect but the board spent 70m net which is apalling. Not That ole doesn't have any responsibility but the top brass of the club have no ambition.
 
Just sack this clueless loser already, incompetent and completely out of his depth.
 
Our lack of organisation is seriously disturbing.
 
You can't totally blame the manager as the whole club knew Herrera and lukaku where off in the summer and how they thought we would get through the whole season without quality replacements God only knows.
 
Besides Martial and Pogba, who can consistently carry the ball in tight areas in the team that Ole's put out?

This team will never create enough chances if the players can't take on men and make space for others.

I believe some problems does lie with management the only midfield replacement the club identified was Longstaff. In a period where we also lost Fellaini, Herrera and need midfielders while Ander was playing for the club. We've gone backwards in the midfield and forward with the defence. If Ole doesn't get top 4 he's not going to see out his days to get two or three windows to sort this mess out, his credentials are too minute.
 
Games like these are going to be a struggle all season. We're stuck relying on a piece of brilliance or opposition mistake. This was decided when we didn't sign a midfielder or forward. We'll never really know for sure if that was down to Ole or the club.
 
What most of us were concerned with coming true, is already happening three games into the season. Ole isn't a Manchester United manager, he's a rookie who was lucky to get the job and now it's another season of the club being dragged through the mud while our rivals laugh out loud along the way.

Strap yourself's in boys..

Still the whole half of our 3rd game of the season... I swear some of you look like you're just waiting for things to go south.

Things went south long ago and aren't moving towards north at all.

At this point I want everyone out of the club, from lowest ranks to Glazers. Just feck off everyone.

Don’t tell me what to do. I support the club not an individual. Perhaps you should support the next club Ole goes to.

Somebody who refers to an all time legend who won everything with us as a "loser" is not a supporter.
