Genius at work
We are an awfully coached team

Do you need more time? We could be 3-0 down by the 20th minute and that's not even overreacting.
This place couldn't even wait until half time.
Thank God we seem to have prime De Gea back for us.
Unfortunately, you’re right. Well, it might be a toss up between Ole and Norwich’s manager.
If we want to achieve anything this season he needs sacking after this game. We’re already looking like going out at the group stages again.
We are wasting this team under Ole. Ronaldo, Bruno, Pogba, Sancho ,Varane , Cavani should be putting that Villarreal team to sword. Feck, they aren't even parking a bus. They are playing a very high line, very organized and a high pressing side. Seriously, we just look like a bunch of new players trying to do something.
I feel sick tbh. This is so embarrassing
He has taken the club as far as his ability can. Painfully obvious.
The numbers of managers we will face this year who're worse than Ole can be counted in 1 hand.
He's a fecking joke and anyone who watches us play and dare to say we're improving is a fecking blind git.

I think I’m like @Robbie Boy, I gave up a long time ago now thinking about a new manager and the difference a great coach could make.
The club have clearly decided that this “individualist” approach of “go express yourselves” is the future for this club and Ole will simply get new player after new player after new player hoping that will solve the issue. Not a chance is anyone looking at the man in the dugout as a big factor in how we play.

Wait for the new "Posts that were made today" thread.
This is a simple case of one side improving since last season and we have either stayed the same or in my opinion regressed.
We played better stuff last season on a consistent basis.

Shades of Sven Goran Eriksson about Ole. Sticks the best players in the side, keeps the players happy and gets tactically outclassed. I'm beginning to believe that Pogba and Bruno can't be in a midfield 3 together without asking too much of the other midfielder. Even prime Roy Keane would have a hard time keeping that midfield functional by all himself.
Exactly that's what will happen. Watch them treat this game as a masterlcass if we fluke win it.
This is an absolute shambles to be honest.
We are basically playing 4-1-5
It is indefensible to be this unorganised at this level really against a team we should be far superior too

Top coaches work on this shit from day one.
Genuinely wonder what his team talks in the dressing room are like. He probably plays a cassette of ‘Come on you Reds’, hands out signed photos of him in the 1999 final and stops players on their way for a piss to say things like: “Did you know I used to play for Sir Alex?”
It maybe a 4-3-3 on paper but they’ve played more like a 4-1-5, the midfield is non existent
TBF, they fecked up sacking him though. Look at them now (Arsenal i mean)
But on topic. That was fecking disgusting. What the hell are we trying to do?
I think time is running out for Ole to prove he has what it takes. Even if we get a result today, this performance should start ringing alarm bells.
Yeah this match has confirmed what I suspected a long time ago. They can't play together, certainly not as CMs/AMs
Ole has been found out long ago but what about Carrick? How is McTominay so incredibly incompetent in the Carrick role? He is hiding between the attackers when we are in possession which results in the defenders passing side to side and hitting long balls 24/7. McKenna is another one stealing a living, maybe he was decent training youth teams should go back to that instead...
Can we swap managers at halftime? Emery would have this a whitewash with out squad, that was painful
They could play together if you sat them down and gave them a defined role. If they can't follow instructions then fine, bench them, but I'm pretty sure they haven't been trained to play together and balance their runs.
Mct is far far to high imo.
Pundits turning on him. Bein Sports has been harping on about how we seem like a team without a plan or organization. Seems like the press is getting on the Ole out bandwagon.

The question is if the right person(s) bells will ring.
Same on my chanel. They make solid points though. We have an excellent team on paper.
I’d agree with this. The last two matches (so far) have bothered me a lot, in truth.
Our midfield options are still hideous, mind. We’re trying to play a formation without the players to do it.
They can't. We kind of figured this over a year ago, yet we see what we see today. It's unfathomable. Beyond belief.
Would be hilarious if Ole ends up leaving the club before Woodward.
Finally
We have seen this same movie for the past 2 seasons. Because of the attacking talent they can eek out a win from bad performances. But they are never consistent enough to win the league or UCL. I'm sure we will finish 3rd or 4th or even 2nd but we won't win the league.
The board needs to raise the bar. Are we satisfied with just making top 4 or do we want to win major titles.
Bein Sports have been saying that for a good year and a half. How we constantly struggle against teams that are well structured and don't commit men forward. The English media however, because most of them are ex teammates are still using the (needs time to gel) need a CDM excuse.
Ole has built a rod for his own back with all these world class signings. We have lost all balance and cohesiveness and its clear he is trying to play more expansively but is failing miserably. End result is we look at disjointed at the back and disjointed in attack. This will end badly for him as he and the coaching team clearly don’t know how to play attacking football without losing solidity.
Neither can defend. Neither is quick enough for midfield. They're both losse in possession. Neither is interested in controlling a game.
They're just not midfielders. You might play one for what they bring going forwards but both is impossible.
Not saying they are wrong, they are actually completely right I just had the feeling that for the longest time pundits never really criticized Ole too much but rather the players, Pogba, Martial, Rashford and so on but never really Ole, now the honeymoon period seems over.
We already knew it at the start of last season but Ole just doesn't get it.
Some fans thinks this is the first time, they have seen United play this badly under Ole. As a stated before, many don’t look at the performance, but only the result. This has been a common theme for the past few years. I am honestly not surprised. I am not even surprised that Villarreal hasn’t scored. The only thing that has surprised me is that we haven’t had a moment of brilliance yet And we are not somehow winning
I’m amazed Villareal are nearly 5/1 to win this after that half
Micheal Owen taking sense? Am I dreaming?
Not to mention, aweful squad management. Our core players are constantly run to the ground, our squad players are constantly without match fitness, and our youngsters only see action once a year.
