He's a fraud. We'll regret not sacking him in May for years to come.
Past the post Mourinho euphoria we weren’t any better when they were all fit last season.When you have your best 2 players out with injury, the current striker injured, and your back up striker injured.... suddenly its the manager
No, I agree with that and we should have done more buisness but it is Woody's job to do recruitment. Don't you think they have other transfers planned than those who actually materialized? Say what you like about Ole but in my view the incompetence lies with the board and Woody. They are the reason we are in the mess we're in, Not Ole regardless if he's the right man or not for the job. No matter who you'd bring in now he would need time.
Indeed. Which makes it even more infuriating that he was only allowed to bring in 3 players. People can critise Oles tactics and team selection (a very fair critism imo), but his player transfers have been very good and have been our best players this season imo. I'd be more than happy to see him become DoF for example. Whether he'd accept that position is a different matter.
True. I just feel he should've made a fuss, get a few more faces in, anyone even if it was on loan as they would've been better than what we have. Instead he kept reiterating how happy he was with the squad. Its incredibly frustrating when it's clearly visible to every man and his dog the glaring weaknesses in our squad.No, I agree with that and we should have done more buisness but it is Woody's job to do recruitment.

Are you actually seriously suggesting if you put the attacks of those teams in our team there'd be some significant improvement? Ole knew we were selling Lukaku and Sanchez and made the decision to apparently not replace them.I don't care where they finished last season, what we put out today isn't better than those names. I said we'd struggle for goals in the summer when everyone was happy about selling Lukaku.
Does he really say that? I'm not so sure
Ohhh sorry have they been out injured for the past 20 games?
We've not looked convincing since his initial few games.
Yeah, I agree with this. We’re probably not going to win anything with him, but I think he’ll leave us in a much healthier way than he found us.I still back him. I can see what he is trying to do with signing british players. I would give him the season. Sign a proper ten like Maddison, sign a top RW maybe Sancho and a MF. See how things pan out early next season.
Have to get rid of Mata though. Riding the gravy train.
I hope it gets better but would not surprize me if we are have a new manager next season.
If only we could steal Nagelsmann mid-season.To be replaced by whom?
If better clubs come in for those players there is no chance they will join us.I still back him. I can see what he is trying to do with signing british players. I would give him the season.

Liverpool will be his last game as some of us predicted this summer. We will play defensive football at home against our biggest rival and lose( yes, sounds ugly). That will not be forgiven
I'd say our best front 4 is probably Rashford, Martial, James, Pogba (but you lose what he brings to midfield). I'd say that is 6th best in the league.Are you actually seriously suggesting if you put the attacks of those teams in our team there'd be some significant improvement?

He def said something out of order because if that video was longer you would see Ed turning around who was sat in front of him saying something to him.
Listen Phil Jones is Phil Jones.
Watch this and go to 0.57 seconds
Has to go.
It's pretty damning, that the best we performed was when he immediately came in and his influence was minimal. Then the results and performances have gotten worse the longer he's been here and the more opportunities he's had to make a difference.
And he sets formation and lineup. Even manages trainings.Sack him and then what. New manager will have to work with Ed who will gladly decide which players should or shouldn't be bought no matter what the manager says or needs.
Genuine question.
How many managers in this league would you say are worse than Ole? This isn't me shitting on the guy or demanding that he be sacked, just a genuine question.
I'd say our best front 4 is probably Rashford, Martial, James, Pogba (but you lose what he brings to midfield). I'd say that is 6th best in the league.
However today's front 4 James, Rashford, Pereira, Mata, there's at least 12 PL team's first choice front 4 i'd take over it. It's terrible.
We are not that far awayIt's like someone sticking up for their kid whose punched somebody at school. He's a good kid really.
