One of the best managers in the game currently and sure to be regarded as an all time great is regularly called a Pep Guardiola is my idol on the Caf.

Calling a manager who has spent 400m and in the job for 3 years delivering feck all a fraud or P E teacher is now regarded as ‘excessive vitriol’.

The RAWKification of the Caf is complete.

Mate, on this forum everyone is a trash manager.

Conte- too defensive and has a wig.

Pep-a Pep Guardiola is my idol who didn’t win the CL with Bayern even though Sir Alex himself has two CLs.

Klopp-a bottler and a cheerleader. Did I mention his yellow teeth?

“Brenda” Rodgers- has a portrait of himself in his home. Also he isn’t winning the big trophies even though he manages Leicester.

Poch-small time manager, only got top 4 with Spurs with 25m net spend or so.

Tuchel-conflictual and a bottler. Doesn’t matter that the PSG squad is full of overrated primadonnas.

Ten Hag- he only managed in the Dutch league, even though I think it is a bit better than the Norwegian one.:wenger:

Nagelsmann-flavour of the month

Ole Gunnar Vibeson- Nuclear Physics teacher. The reincarnation of Sir Alex Ferguson. Culture changer. Good vibes only. Progress. Squad builder. Legend.
 
I wonder what we need is to fall in to that 8-10 level of the PL to make the Glazers feel that he is far away from the top 4.

Isn't that how Mourinho left? When dropping down the table?

Tougher or not, at the end of the day - Jose won it, Ole bottled it. They don't give you places for facing tougher opponents. You either win the competition or you don't.

Bottled is such a moronic sentiment. Emery is a tactically astute manager and the Europa is bread and butter for him.

We should of won no doubt, but when it gets to penalties its anyone's.

Did you say the same of England in the summer losing to Italy and bottling it?

That's unfair to Jose because City had a freak season that year finishing with 100 points. I f I remember correctly, the first team to do so. In contrast, in the last season when Ole finished second, City finished with 86 points. What's baffling about all of this is that after Jose finished 2nd instead of giving him reinforcements, the clown board told him to deal with what he's got. And then the idiots decided to splash 500 million on Ole whose yet to achieve anything of note. His second place was done with 74 points. That wouldn't even get you in top 4 in most seasons. In Jose's 2nd season Liverpool, who finished 4th, had 75 points, so in Ole's best season he wouldn't even finish in the top 4th in Mourinho's second season. It's utterly insane when you think about it, but it says all about what competition Ole has had to deal with. In the previous season he got into top 4 with 66 points.

There's lots of variables for sure, City had a freak season.. yet every team last year dropped off in terms of points totals due to a certain pandemic and playing in a condensed season, more games in fewer days. We also went the whole season unbeaten on the road in the league, but I guess that's not to be considered either right?

The highlighted part is factually untrue...

74 pts would get you top 4 at least 4 times in the last 6 years.
3rd - 19/20 season
3rd - 18/19 season
5th - 17/18
6th - 16/17
2nd - 15/16
4th - 14/15

Again a manager going from 6th, to 3rd to 2nd and making finals... no issue with him getting the start to this season.

As for Jose and not getting what he wanted that summer, he's only himself to blame... going public and slating the club, the board and its supporters wasn't the way to go. He was never the right man for the club, sadly nor is Ole it seems.
 
Merson was right last week, our rival managers and fans were praying we beat spurs as they want us to keep ole knowing full well we ain't going nowhere under him

It’s not rocket science. We would if some of our rivals were in a similar situation.
 
How is it the clubs like spurs and Barca have decided to sack their managers but we haven't when we are practically in the same position as them as we neither ain't going to fight for any trophies this seasons so why are we still holding onto ole, we have nothing to lose at this point
 
I believe that the lack of swift action has something to do with these new contracts they handed out a few weeks ago.

Sacking ole wouldn't solve any issues. The entire coaching staff needs to go otherwise there's no point.
 
Even the other results are going for this guy, we could've been 11th and that would certainly raise the eye brows of our owners. I just can't stomach him anymore, want him out more than I have ever wanted a manager out of the club.

Thing is we'll probably beat a woeful Watford and the Man Utd admin will inundate us with a 100 messages of positivity and the circus will go one. This club deserves everything it gets when being run so poorly and I honestly don't care how are games go going forward whilst he is our manager. We aren't winning anything regardless, let them all pick up their wages and the top reds continue to applaud our mediocrity.

Man City held back yesterday, Liverpool might have done too. What a pathetic situation, our biggest rivals aren't just miles ahead of us, but they can actually toy with us by how many goals they want to beat us by. The best part is that the club seems to think this is all absolutely fine and to give these clowns another chance.

No it is not. If you watched the game, it was grossly mismatched from start to finish. He kept playing an injured Rashford and used like 4 subs just for penalty takers?

As for England, scoring early and then deciding to stop playing football after half an hour is not something far from bottling given the talent England had both on the pitch and on the bench.

Ole played for penalties. He used no subs until extra time, all with eyes on penalty takers. It is one thing to end up with the lottery of penalties but its another to actually play for it. We had 1 shot on target in 2 hours, which was the result of a couple of deflections falling at Cavani's feet and had absolutely no ideas, no plan B while Villarreal got more and more into the game and were in control for the last hour.

That's Manchester United in a European Final against Villarreal. Cowardly, no ideas, playing for penalties. Ole was not unlucky. That final is the best possible example of where Ole's ceiling is as a manager.

Does it matter? We should be not down where we are, we were meant to be challenging for the league. We need to take this top 4 battle seriously or we will find ourselves out of it soon enough.

The fact Arsenal are above us is the last straw for me. I'm not too proud to say that I am 100% Ole Out now despite having strongly backed him for years. The thought of losing to that lot and even being 6-9 points behind them is too much to take.

Imagine, just imagine Arsenal getting top 4 and United Europa Conference next season!
 
Spurs, Norwich, Villa and now Middlesbrough make ruthless executive decisions.......meanwhile our board are doing a good impression of an ostrich with it's head in the sand!

Man city were basically in conserve our energy for the next game mode, that is how easy it was for them and also liverpool, it was as if they were facing a relegation side that they would take lightly once they were a few goals up, they never felt threatened by this united side under ole
 
Arsenal are now ahead of us. Arsenal, who have been a meme for the entirety of 2021 are now ahead of us.
