United’s next manager

Also, wanting Jose back after what he did to the club is pretty pathetic from some of our fans
 
Need someone with experience, managed at the top level for a number of years. All this former player nonsense is fanny. It's rose tinted rubbish. Allegri has the experience and is a serial winner.
 
Am sure I read the other day that Allegri wants to have a break this season and come back next summer.
 
Can't believe I'm seeing suggestions of getting Jose back, or Wenger or Benitez as a caretaker.

I agree Ole has run out of time, but the next appointment needs to be right - not yet another reactionary knee jerk catastrophe.

Similarly, I don't want Allegri - he's successful, but I want to see an entertaining United, not another pragmatic 1-0 grind
 
Allegri is a born winner. Successful everywhere. But until Woodward is gone it doesn't matter much between 4th and 8th

Define 'success everywhere'? Prior to Juve he'd been sacked by AC Milan and Cagliari. And at Juve he took over a team who had already won the league championship 3 seasons in a row. He's not exactly 'built' a winning team.
 
Laurent Blanc as caretaker (he should’ve been when Mourinho was sacked). Then sign Poch, Allegri, Ancelotti or Tuchel next summer.
 
I really don't know who is the best man for the job anymore.

No doubt he'd be sacked soon anyway so no need to think too hard I guess
 
He's sitting around doing and earning zilch at the moment. Of course he'd take an interim role that would pay him 4-5m.

give me another example of a top class manager (who clearly wants a future full time job) ever taking on an interim role.
 
Can I apply? I genuinely don't think I can do worse than Solskjaer

Wenger would have sounded hilarious last season, but now it doesn't seem as whacko.

French connection, good at attacking football, caretaker manager? I think he'd leap at the chance.

Our problem would be saying NO if it went really well! We've played that game recently.

As a Milan supporter, you have to remember he won the league with Milan in 2011. Still the last Italian team not named Juve to win the Scudetto since then. Also he was sacked because Milan were in shambles financially due to Berlusconi and sold the two best players (prime Zlatan and Thiago Silva) to PSG with no worthy replacements. Take a look at the 2010-11 Milan winning side and compare it to the 2011-12 Milan side Allegri was given and you’ll quickly see why he left.

All this nonsense about don't care about the results, it's the style of play what counts. It's crap. The results are the be all and end all. I didn't hear many complaints when Allegri was winning title after title by Juventus fans or Chelsea fans when Conte came in and won the title in his first season. They only start to complain and notice the style of play when they are losing.
 
Allgeri would be another dumb panicky decision. We spent an entire summer making our team pretty much the opposite of what he would like to work with.
 
I don’t want us to abandon our idea of getting a long term manager in, we just need the right one. Allegri wouldn’t be here more than 2-3 years regardless of how well he did.
What makes you think Allegri would be a short term manager?
 
Can we have Jose back? Honestly, can we? Doubtful purely because Woodward wouldn't want to lose face and admit he made a mistake.

So what's left? Allegri? So that'll be another summer transfer window wasted, another season we let go buy, another season we're 'rebuilding'...

They say people have short memories but bloody hell mate.
We only got rid of him about a year ago :lol:

Benitez took the Chelsea job - actually put him in the frame for the Napoli job.
 
Fair. I can understand the lack of love for Allegri and his tactics. But he definitely wins trophies. No doubt about that.

He's good but I don't think he would be the right fit for us, plus I've seen enough negative /pragmatic football to last me a lifetime .

Because that worked so well with Jose, or LVG. And I do care about style - if it was just about results I wouldn't watch football, I watch the game to be entertained, and of course - I like to see my team win. Besides, regardless of who we get in I can't see us finishing ahead of City or Liverpool unless we also get rid of Woodward and appoint a DOF. So watching us finish 3rd with Allegri sounds fecking miserable to me
 
Absolutely no to Allegri. I'd rather build towards something exciting and not pragmatic and dull.

I honestly think Wenger for the interim would be good.

This. Ole deserves to be sacked, but the last thing we need right now is some knee jerk reaction and hire yet another caretaker or yet another manager that get sacked 6-12 months from now. I'd rather finish 17th with Ole as manager and then find a proper replacement to take us forward than to end up 7th with some dinosaur that will get us nowhere

Enough with the half measures. And fecking Ed needs to go now as well. This is the fourth manager that has failed under his watch.
