[Poll] Next permanent United manager

In all of the BBC One positive stuff about United yesterday, they were showing Ole to be like a new Sir Alex Ferguson who learned from him.
There is a danger that signing Poch would remove a better manager that we already have, in Ole. And put us back to 2013.

Ole racing ahead.
Good shout but I don't support Molde
Yep, exactly. You proved my point !
Sorry, misread your post. But tbh I only support United and not really any team from Norway. I have however followed Ole's work somewhat since he came to Molde.
Can't remember last time I watched 13 games in a row. Ole got my vote.
If we hired pochetino he'd want to bring in his own backroom staff so ole, phelan and some of the others would be leaving. We'd be right back to the moyes appointment shake up. Not hiring ole now would be a huge mistake.
Allright. Anyhow, if you followed Ole, you've noticed that his results are better, the better teams he manages.
He even develops and sells players in Molde at a 1:4 earnings ratio in Norway.
And he got tactics spot on towards big clubs in Europe League as well, making the most out of his inferior players.
Imagine what he is capable of doing with a club not demandng to sell his best players all the time, but even buying top top players.
Ole got exactly what it takes to carry the true United legacy on. He has been a stellar student of all what makes our club special, off and on the pitch. Values that are so evidently shining through already. And he is not a bit intimidated for this big task, Ole only feels blessed and commited. Just like when he played here. His lack of nerves rubs off on his team. Ole is as close to a Messiah we can get imo. He has the potentual to fill the gap after Sir Alex.

That's my feeling as well. Ole''s short time here has been such an overwhelming success, compared not just to the early part of this season but literally the entire period after Sir Alex retired. You get the sense that maybe we really did need a manager that was United at heart.
I still haven't changed my vote from Marco Rose to Ole yet. But it's just a matter of time now.
a huge difference between looking forward to a match and just hoping we win or sometimes dreading the upcoming match.
Even more importantly, we are looking forward to enjoying our football and the next match cannot come fast enough.

@Peter Brewer I hope you're right and if he gets the job that's exactly what happens. He must be living the dream right now, for the second time in his life.
It's not the right time to be aruing with fellow posters and not something I normally do.

Everyone are entitled to their opinions, I got carried away and initially mistakenly assumed you were a Norwegian United supporter and didn't support Ole for the wrong reasons. My apologies.
Ole please. I'm sold. Back him with money, let him buy a right winger, a right back and maybe a CB. We're golden, he gets United and what it means to try and win every single match.
Massive swing in the % after the Chelsea game.
That's alright, we're good now
How can anyone still be voting for anyone else but Ole after the past two months is beyond me.
The change in form, mood, results has been quite something. Beat Liverpool on Sunday and I think the jobs his if it isn’t already.
He’s so god dam positive, he oozes respect. After two negative and miserable managers in Jose and Van Gaal this has been a breath of fresh air.
Hiring anyone but Ole would be a mistake in my opinion, just hope his name can lure the players we need this summer

Anyway, Ole would not back to molde, United or not he will get a job in PL.
Feck Poch, most of us don't want him, I never did.. The guy who says "winning trophies is for ego's" that's a sackable offence in my eyes...I'm glad you all seem happy with Ole because you're not getting Pochettino.
Yes, that last game ticked all the boxes and had massive impact on supporters and pundits.
There's also been concerns if Ole has a name big enough to attract top top players.
Well, it seems like it's movement in that direction too. And frankly, why shouldn't it? Most players crave playing attacking free flow football with a solid defence. And if they can improve as players as well under Ole, which they see happens now in United? It's a no brainer. This last game was the tipping point for fans, pundits and professional players I guess. May it last long
Bale wants United

I don't see why not, with the direction Ole is taking the team, the world can see joining United now would be one hell of an exciting prospect. Plus we offer insane wages and don't shy away from offering huge transfer fee's either, we are willing to out bid anyone. The stadium, the fans, the few world class players we do already have here, I don't see why we can't attract elite players.
I have no doubt Ole Gunnar Solskjær will be United's next manager. Of interest will be how his team plays when he gets a pre season to bed down his idea's and a summer transfer window to bring in his own players. Here he's done a fine job of making best use of what he has inherited.
If Solskjaer is given job, one more interesting thing is how much fitness will improve. As it is, our players' fitness levels is poor/average (God knows what we did in last 2 years) and players are gassed out by 60-65th min.
Solskjaer surely has shown enough to be given a proper shot at the job.
Glad to see him finally nose in front of Mr "WinningCupsIsNotAsImportantAsTopFour".
Consolidating that place by Sunday evening after an impressive performance against Liverpool and a win too would be nice

Do we really want Bale now Sancho is on the scene?Yes, that last game ticked all the boxes and had massive impact on supporters and pundits.

I'd like to think even Woody is over his Bale obsession by now.
Maybe not really, at least until he's a lot cheaper. But that's beside the point Bale suggesting his preference for United

Never really wanted Bale at OT, but if he now wants to come, that in itself speaks volumes. If he was really cheap, or a straight swap with Sanchez or Lukaku (all very unlikely), then I would welcome him here, but would be injured for half the season. Sancho certainly ticks a lot of boxes, Felix looks very skilful, and could be a world star, so someone will make the right decision, I hope, to get one of these players here.
My worry is Woodward sees bale available for £70m and decides we've got to have him. 29 year old bale would probably be as bad a signing as 29 year old Sanchez.
Agree. £70 million would be far too much.
Oh give it over, I don't like this if I'm for Ole I'm against Poch vice versa it's like the reashford Martial thing under mourinho all over again.
Poch has made Spurs into a top 3 side season after season on a tight budget which is incredible impressive and is my favourite choice. I'll be happy with ole with how things are going so it's a win win to me.
But Poch is right a FA cup might be a trophy but he wants better I love the ambition which would fit in excellent here as Arsenal won the FA cup a few times but Wenger was crucified as top 4 is better and at United fa cup is not that great without a title challenge or CL.
Anyway this is a win win Ole gets top 4 and keeps the job or Poch gets it I don't mind I feel like we are getting back to the old United exciting times
Ole for me for the possibility of hearing the commentator screaming "And solskjaer has won it!"
At some point he is going to learn his lesson, surely.
I think United need to hire a DoF before even deciding if Ole should get the job or not.
Superglue Ole to the wheel.
That's one seriously big bloody call they'd have to make, very, very quickly after they arrived.
I think we left it too late. Unless the decision on a DOF has already been made but hasn't been announced, which is possible but doubtful, any incoming DOF will have an advisory role in this, and in our summer acquisitions, at best. The decision will have to be made by Woodward.
Which is disappointing.
Klopp seems to think it is a no brainer.
I have never understood why Man Utd went for candidates like Moyes, LvG and Mourinho.. when there clearly was better candidates available.
