No but he’s serious. Why always be negative about the team you supposedly love? You are always bashing United for no reason. Your life must be fun
Press conference vs Villareal at home
- Thread starter Dante
- Start date
He’s banned, won’t be able to reply.
Damn, with a back 4 of
Should go with Matic.
Dalot - Varane - Lindelof - Telles
He is going to have to grow some balls not to play McFred.
Should go with Matic.
I hope forever.
The poster was looking forward to us dropping points tomorrow so he/she can “score points”. What a pathetic and sad way of thinking.
"Same as la liga? same tempo?"
That’s one of the worst press conferences I’ve seen.
Donny & Jadon say hi!
Ole should sit there and say
"Fred? feck me he's a bit shit at keeping possession, I'm not sure why I pick the cnut to be honest. Who do you reckon I should pick?"
At least that's what I think some folk on here are sat there hoping he'll say.

Honestly you have to just understand that he will protect the players no matter what. If you try to take what he says at face value you'll see hypocrisy in every sentence.
Who's captain tomorrow with Maguire out? Ronaldo?
special moment for Ronaldo beating the Champions League appearance record. Migh be a classy touch to let him have the honour/moment to lead the team out

He has that "dead man walking" look in his eyes. He knows young up-and-comer hip-patterns-of-play coach Garry Neville is coming for his job and he is scared.
If Gary is on his way in we'd all have that look in our eyes.
A loss tomorrow and the beginning of the end is on the table. Media and especially the British press will hunt him down, make no mistake, sooner or later. They smell blood.
He’s starting to lose faith even from his most loyal supporters, the day when match goers don’t cheer him out is the moment when it’s over.
October will probably be his make or brake month. Can’t see him survive if we lose a couple of more crucial games where we look toothless.
For the record. I don’t want him out yet but I’m not blind. A lot of us oldies have seen this before.

Succinctly expressed and kinda where I’m at too.
They don't want him to fail as a personal thing. But they do want the best for United and don't believe Ole is best for United. That's where it is from.
It is possible to want United to win and have reservations about the person currently in charge. His comments like "The Aston Villa game we broke up play really well, attacked maybe too fast" just serve to reinforce existing misgivings about him.
Ultimately no one can get on their high horse about this. Everyone backs the manager until they don't. Just different people have different breaking points. Just like people here criticized fans for turning on Moyes, va Gaal or Mourinho saying "why do you want them to fail" ....they eventually turned too.
If we continue to play like this and not improve, sooner or later everyone will be saying the same thing.
Absolutely. The shareholders of manchester united and the glazers in extension have been happy for the revival and rebuild he has accomplished, but it's becoming clear he isn't the one to steer the ship from here.
I'm rooting for him but I'm also a realist. This might be his last season.
There's just the merest hint of hysteria lurking behind some of his recent appearances in front of the cameras. There's an edge there.
How many have you seen?
Bruno I would think. Atleast he should be the captain.
I already think the path is set now. I just think it's a matter of when rather than if. Anything but a win tomorrow and the situation worsens. I don't think the international break will do him any favours either, as people in the media and fan base get more time to speculate. With the fixture list how it is I honestly can see him gone by Christmas.
It's very bittersweet, I think Ole should have gone following the final at the end of last season but still respect everything he has done for the club.id love nothing more for it to of worked but he ultimately isn't good enough and we should be a charity.
On topic, a very poor press conference again. You would think he would consider how to answer the obvious questions before going in the room, yet he struggles to even be consistent. Inspires zero confidence.
Had to go back and check - seems you're right, newbie status now.
Well, that's a shame. I'm sure we'll all miss his insightful contributions.
(Serious candidate for worst poster ever - green smiley spamming shit poster of the first water).
nearly all of them I watch them on our YouTube channel weekly.
Ah, I see.
And you genuinely think this is one of the worst you've ever seen?
One of the worst Ole pressers - or one of the worst ever in general?
Ole pressers.
It will be Bruno.
What the feck is Ole talking about here? 10-15mins of added time? Is he crazy?
Well, that's more understandable - I guess.
I'd say it was a pretty ordinary presser (for him) myself. Nothing special - you could say.
Then again, to me, he hasn't really delivered any positively bad presser performances so far - so yeah, I guess an ordinary one could qualify as his worst ever (shades of ordinariness, you could say). *
* I obviously know this isn't what you're on about, so...don't bother.
Basketball games are 48 minutes long. But the clock gets stopped every time the ball is out of play and then restarted when it comes back onto the field.
Football games are 90 minutes long. But the clock never stops. It's up to the ref to hurry up stoppages and then add injury time at the end.
The average amount of time the ball is in play in football is 55-60 minutes as Ole said. I don't know if he's right about the Villa match only containing 45 minutes of football. But that's a damning indictment of the officiating if the ref let the players get away with it.
Taking a thread off topic
His presser answers have been collaborated on the pitch time and time again. To the Ole fans, it's simple "pressers", to United fans it is a very dangerous rhetoric and a clear sign of things to come. When Klopp went to a much worse team, in his first press conference he said "we'll win a title in 4 years". Well ,they won the CL and PL. That Liverpool did, the one that was barely a midtable side were he took over. That's because he is a winner and he isn't there for a vacation. And what do we have? A manager that is going to make it "difficult" for the other teams and "give it a go". A manager... a UNITED manager that literally says that this is not a "must win game"... what? This is not a United manager mentality. It's exactly the same mentality Moyes exhibited here - a manager that is more afraid to lose than actually win. And it's not just words because our playing style under Ole shows it time and time again.
Take the Klopp talk to the Klopp thread please.
Another masterclass by our favourite passion merchant. Exciting times.
You poor sods. We will trash them 3-0. Ole is here to stay. Get used to it.
Hope you are right but this is a huge game especially with 3 losses in 4 we can’t afford anything but a win. If we fail to qualify out of this group Ole should be sacked on the spot
Ole's job will be safe as long as we have regular Champions League football.
After Fergie, all our managers have been sacked after we fail to get Champions League football, or when the Champions League slot seems impossible (Mourinho). Why would Ole, a supposedly fan-favorite, get another standard from the Glazers?
I’ve read this and it seems to be the regular for the last few years but I feel a early exit in CL and bad result in PL and he could be gone. The board have spent millions and a challenge is expected. Also we have players with big mentality who are winners if he loses them he’s gone
I don’t get it too. I know McFred usually go long, he could.be on about that, but they go long because they have no ability to move forward and recycle possession. So only option is to remove one and play Pogba there.
So you are ok with "it's not a must win game" if so then might want to raise your expectations a bit, yes I get him defending the players but certain this has closed the door on any prospects of Donny ever getting a proper go which is so sad. We also might be able to slow down the fast counters IF we had someone half decent on the ball not your deadly duo.

You can tell by the questions his tactical competence is now coming into focus. Outside of our fans I don’t think this has really been discussed in the media where he’s been given a fairly easy ride for the most part until now.
