Pogba for Fred when he’s back and we will fly
Ole Sack Watch

Inevitable, but prolonged by years, knowing our clueless board. Anyone who knows anything about football can see that Ole is not good enough. Unfortunately the people in charge are clowns. Win today with his cowardly tactics and they'll breathe a sigh of relief that they can still keep their yes-man and give him the season.
100%
We are in this position despite him, that's the problem. This squad will always be capable of pulling a result out of nowhere. They need a manager that's going to have them challenging.
We need a convincing win, but I guess that they way spurs is playing a win here shouldn’t be regarded that highly. This look like the spurs team when sir Alex would mock them with the infamous lad it spurs comments. A team that performs ever more shittier than we do but somehow get result. When I saw their stat that said, they covered one of the least ground in the league and scored 9 in their last 9 game, I was surprised how they are in the top 10 And are the type of team that we needed to boost our morale at the moment. If we played against a team with more hunger, we would have been more shake.
Has the poll moved back towards more time?
Would you say that there was a time when Spurs weren't crying out to be mocked? I haven't followed them closely and I wonder if there was a period when people took them seriously.
Fly into the top 4, maybe.
excellentTie him down for another decade 
Happy that we are winning and playing well, but it's going to get annoying now that everyone is going to be talking about how we've turned a corner again, how we were all reactionary and they knew better and how he's at the wheel. Delaying the inevitable, again.
If 5-0 didn't get him the sack, and he gets another result like this, I fear he is going to see out the season.
Ole’s at the wheel
That's a new 5 years contract secured.
Playing this system and getting a win against an obviously inferior Spurs team is not turning a corner, even to the most vocal Ole supporters.
Has stumbled into a solution after all but ending our domestic season.
He’ll be here for 100 years. Always gets bailed out at the brink. The cycle is getting boring.

Yes it will, have you seen how shameless they are?
Won't be sacked now that's for sure.Ole is back and he is here to stay.
Maybe he has turned a corner though?
A huge defeat like the Liverpool one CAN galvanise a team.
He clearly has the players on his side still, and he very clearly still has the backing of the pathetic owners.
Probably best to just get behind the team for the time being.
@pocco and myself (and others) called this pretty much straight after the dippers thrashing - he isn’t going anywhere.
Let's wait to see what happens in midweek and more importantly against City next weekend. For me he needs three wins to not be sacked during the international break.
Hah. Pretty much
I was all for giving Ole this season after getting a new contract, but his limitations have been well and truly exposed and no amount of playing the safest system in the league and relying on individual quality against a very poor side is going to make me change my mind now.
It doesn't matter. He's staying. He already survived the most embarrassing defeat in United's recent history. No matter what happens next it will never be as bad.
He'll be here for next season as well. He'll never get sacked.
If that happens then I’m done supporting United. My health is more important to me than watching this fecking boom-bust cycle.
How many times do we let him bounce back before the next slump? For me it is clear we will never win big trophies with Ole. That should be enough to make the decision.
Today we are winning, he spent 75mil on a winger in the summer and is now playing without wingers.
Oh I am already getting messages that faith in Ole is being rewarded. So all the hope of waiting till the international break to get a new manager is fading.
The team have earned him more time by the looks of it. Certainly doesn't look like he's lost the dressing room as the media were putting out a few days ago...
It doesn’t change anything, this is no more than papering over cracks. Even if he does recover to extent of finishing season and makes top 4 he has to go because all the core issues aren’t going away.
It's horrific, this is really the darkest timeline.
It was predictable. The standard of the start of the season was to challenge for EPL and UCL. Now if we make it to UCL, it's ok. It might be a decade or two before we win another major trophy again. We already 6 years in. The owners, board and half the fanbase are ok with mediocrity. I guess we go on and waste another season. And I bet next season we are the same point again and Ole survives. Rinse, repeat and recycle
Survivor
Look at who we are playing. Hes definitely going its just a matter of when.
Teflon Ole strikes again!
cockroach
I wouldn't be so confident if all reports that the glazers never pulled the trigger due to not having the right manager available I cannot see Ole beyond here next season unless he wins something credible.
When they were consistently a top four team. They looked better than this
