There's no way the MEN runs this if they're not pretty damn sure this is the case.
United could easily ban the MEN from Friday pressers, which would be hugely damaging for the local paper. If the MEN is running this its 90% sure Solskjaer is out.
You might be under-estimating the level that local newspapers now have to be driven by clickbait! Plus Luckhurst is a BS merchant.
Seems weird again that no-one seems to think that this is about the club being badly run?! I said this after SAF(pre-Moyes) and at this point in each successive manager's reign. God help us if they are indeed "floating this idea to see how it's received"! FFS. Just in the same way you want a club to be a FOOTBALL club and appoint the right staff, coaches etc, scout the right players etc... We seem unable to appoint the right manager. How quickly everyone forgets that they appointed Mourinho on a the back foot, and when his inevitable sacking happened got Ole in as a temporary fix (again on the hoof). When will they start running the club and not making decisions on the hoof?! City and Liverpool both appear to have built their current success on the field on decisions made pro-actively and with some kind of plan. Anyone calling for the sacking of Ole is inviting another "make do" shitshow of a not-good-fit manager and I'll be posting this in another 2 years ...
I wonder how many poor appointments are needed before serious questions are asked about who is running United? Woodward doesn't actually leave 'til December, so we're likely to end up with a whole new regime at United, at the top at least. But what actually changes? Will that new management and coaches be on the same wavelength as the staff under them at United who will have been there before?
People should be more depressed about the big picture than Ole & United's current form.
"United considering sacking Solskjaar" - What a depressing sentence. Not lease for the reason as already said, but also it reeks of dithering. Heads should have rolled when Moyes was sacked, unbelievable that they're still making decisions.
In an alternate Universe, United are run by pro-active football people, who thought that it was likely that Ole had got the "cultural reboot" of United well underway with the team coming 2nd. They'd found a manager they thought could take the club to the next level & pursued him. Culminating in Ole stepping down by mutual consent at the end of 2020/21 and moving into a coaching/Dof or other role. At the very lease doing it this way might mean they'd found someone who was right for the club, without having to do it in a panic, mid-season when no-one is available.
I'm not saying that's how it should have happened, but just imagine a world where we're not throwing people under buses and then making the best of the mess. That's just a recipe for boom and bust and means the collateral damage is people like Carrick (who might have turned out to be a great coach), Phelan (who I've actually always had doubts about even since SAF's time). I mean it could even be the fault of the coaching staff, but we'll never know will we, as it stands.
