That's exactly it. The club hasn't denied the reports of Ole being sacked. I still think there's a good chance he goes tomorrow.

That's not good enough. We have 6 points to play for and who knows how important they could become the end of the season!
Change is needed now!
We're really not in a very good position, which is why Ole has to go immediately. The CL group is very tight and if we lose against Atalanta, we're going to be in big trouble there. And if that goes, this season would officially be over.
It’s not easy to change him with another manager
They have to spend other money, fire a lot of the staff
Bring in someone who will change tactics, dynamics, who’s gonna ask pretend things, money
A really nightmare for them, for the glazer if the club is not relegated it’s all fine, they live in florida, the club is only an investment used like an atm cash machine

A lot of the Conte stuff came from Italy so it looks very much like it's been leaked by his people, hence Di Marzio, Pedulla and Romano reporting the Conte stuff.
And the cesspit opens.
Watch the Liverpool game again (if you can stomach it). We tried to press them and play on the front foot and failed miserably.
Against City Ole will set us up more conservatively and revert to trying to catch them on the break. Rashford and Greenwood to score.
Seriously, what is wrong with this board?
Yeah, let's hope that's not how it pans out. Custis casting a wide net for eyeballs mentioning Zidane, Conte, Brendan and ten Hag. Long shot, but hope there's some truth there.
Yeah yeah. So competent they signed both.
It was your desperation convincing you (and many others).
Took around seven years for the majority to understand Woody wasn't a "financial-genius-so-he-can-stay-in-the-club-in-that-capacity". Still a ways to go for the majority to understand just how...unintelligent...the Glazers are.
Well let's see *you* try to find a top-level football manager in seven hours! - J. Glazer (what do you mean I've had eight years...)
Yep, exactly.
This isn't good. Nor what we need.
The rot is at the top. Feck sake.

Well let's not, we're trying to pick good managers, not managers that have once managed our rivals, that's not the criteria we're going for here.
I don't think a rebuild is necessary. In my opinion, we need an experienced coach, which is what I've advocated since last season, and the introduction of some of our academy players into the first team playing squad, not just the training squad. Players like Hannibal, Elanga and Shoretire would benefit greatly from getting some minutes in matches, this should have been happening last season, not just at the end, when we were assured of a top four finish.
We have very little coaching experience within the club, and even Alex Ferguson brought in some excellent coaches when he was manager, and developed some exciting talent, which he brought into the squad at the right time, moving on some established players like Hughes, Ince and Kanchelskis. Ole needed to move on several more players, although he has done well to get rid of certain players, I feel he has become muddled by how many he now has in his squad, but a rebuild is not how I would describe it, more like a reshuffle.
Nah, this news if true makes me feel sick. If I see training pics tomorrow with Ole smiling we know he's going nowhere and we're still fecked.
I feel the same. There is no way we beat City. We are just not functioning as a team. We were bad before Ronaldo but now without the forward pressing, we're being decimated. Added to that, McTominay is probably still injured and is playing absolute gash. Greenwood doesn't track back, so we are basically leaving a huge gap down the middle to exploit. Then we have Maguire who's also not fit, trying to patrol that, with Shaw constantly coming in, leaving the sides vacant. Finally, we have the players that have completely lost faith in him. No rescue job coming this time. The only thing in our favor is De Gea is playing well. But even then we're still conceding 4 and 5. Shoulda conceded 4 to VR in the first half alone. Our shape has gone and the dressing room has gone. Only way I see it changing is if he's forced to play a different team. But then that team won't have jelled so we'd probably still be decimated.
Less considering, more sacking please.
Di Marzio saying we've chosen Conte but Oles position is unchanged?
You reckon he's staying?
From giving him the job permanently, Ole has done a decent job of steadying the ship. However, once a squad senses that they're going nowhere under the manager, it's over.
To me, it's clear as day that the players believe Ole has run his course. The contract extension was worrying, and if the board don't see the light now then I don't know what's in store for us come the end of the season.

Italian media vs British media, Conte side clearly leaking it out to the italians. I would know who to believe here.
Rip to the 297 people who have passed away since voting stay
Ole is gone it seems, from what's being leaked to the likes of Ducker and Stone.
Which would indicate Conte wants it if that's the case.
Makes sense.
dont believe a word this club says nowadays. He's gone
Di Marzio is saying it’s just about timing - they may wait until the internationals. So everyone knows he’s going. Everyone knows he’s being replaced by conte. They’ve made a bad situation even fecking worse.
The love money therefore to be in the CL in February is important and to play in the CL next is important.....both are unlikely right now.
Of course he wants it, it’s a huge job and the squad is good enough for him to do well with it.
To be fair, his position IS unchanged. Until it isn't.
There was a Ducker thing about 20 mins ago where it said his position was unchanged, not sure what to think at the moment.
100%. Its just a leak, not a formal show of support. It just means they aren't ready yet. I'd far rather they keep him for extra games, than get the wrong person in.
The golden goose has come and sat right on his lap.
Delaying because there’s nobody to get bar Conte seems fair enough as he's far from the ideal fit.
I was officially converted to "Ole Out camp" over the past few weeks.
It took me quite some time and resistance, I mean, look at my username.
