Or one of the best ones, you know nothing John Snow you can't judge are you a manager? Entitled plastic fanAye, the best response to my concerns would have to be 'of course he knows how to coach, he has his badges'
We are an awfully coached team

If Ole even makes it to the City game I can see him reverting to type and going with his old counter attack tactic that served him so well in the previous encounters, only this time Pep will have devised a plan to counter it and we’ll get fecking bummed. The big difference from the Liverpool game being they won’t take their foot of the gas at 5-0 they’ll be ruthless and go for 6, 7, 8 and we will somehow find ourselves being an even bigger laughing stock than we currently are.
It's moot now but could Ole have saved his United career if he changed coaching staff before this season? Does he have the balls to get better coaches? Does he even know better coaches?
He was calling them brilliant just a few days back. They aren’t being sacked off by Solskjaer.
Sack them all.

It is about the absolutely meticulous preparation for the breaking of the 2 hour marathon.
And the reason this is relevant to this thread is that it clearly illustrates that to achieve the best, you have to have the absolute top quality science based coaching.
Everything has to be broken down into the most minute detail and then each and every part of that has to be improved to the maximum.
So. The question is - is the whole science, training and coaching system used by Manchester United really the best of the very best?
There can only be one answer. Yes or no. And if no, then why not.

They're all mates and have created an environment where they're all unaccountable no matter how much the club is dragged through the swamp.
or 'I can't say because I've not seen his tactical boards'.Aye, the best response to my concerns would have to be 'of course he knows how to coach, he has his badges'
Yeah. When pressing/ defending mechanism of front foot football, the key principle of it all, is to make the pitch small.
What happened with Ole's tactic is voluntarily making the pitch bigger which favors the team in possession, which was our opponent at the time!
My own personal favourite when criticising the coaches is, "you can't criticise because you don't know what they do." Maybe not but it's as plain as feckin day watching them week in week out.Aye, the best response to my concerns would have to be 'of course he knows how to coach, he has his badges'
Why is he hands off? Okay he’s hardly coach of the year but he’s achieved feck all. Ferguson stepped back once he established a successful sides and coaches he trusted. But Ole hasn’t earned that. He shouldn’t be spending training having a glass of wine and a kip like he’s some 71 year old managerial legend. He should be watching them train like a hawk.
Convinced he thinks the key to success is ‘do what Sir Alex did’ but it don’t work like that

Certainly feels like that doesn't it. Modern sports are now dominated by science and technology.
The relentless pursuit of improvement. The relentless desire to innovate. To be better than the opposition in every way because standing still is going backwards.
That is what Manchester United should aspire to.
Because that is what their supporters aspire to.
To be better than City, Liverpool and Chelsea and the rest.
Unfortunately we are a very long way off being that.
But unless you change, you won't improve.
I hope we lose to Spurs and hopefully we finally sack him…..
Still hope we qualify for next stage in CL…. With right coach, we can still go QF or SF with this team and get into top 4…

Guardiola called Conte the best tactical mind in the game. Guess what he thinks of Ole.
Why would someone want United to lose to Spurs? You should be getting behind the team no matter what the situation is. Ole will be gone soon enough but to want us to lose is clueless.
I’d take a loss if that’s what it’ll take for the club to take necessary action and make changes and save our season. If the consequence of a win means the directors are convinced he deserves another few months to show he can turn the club around then…. sorry.
Not wanting club to lose but also not wanting a result that will prolong this ridiculousness isn’t being unreasonable.
This whole “real fans would want us to limp on indefinitely” thing doesn’t really stand up for me
Utd staff? It’s a load of bullshits
No one wants Ole to go as much as I do, but I’d never wish for a defeat. It’s abundantly clear Ole has taken us as far as he can and no matter what happens he won’t be the manager next season.
I hate to see Ince “shoot” being right…
Yeah, I crossed that rubicon. I am okay losing badly against spurs. If that makes me “not a top red” , so be it. I am okay paying that price for my club’s future. For the record, if Ole loves the club like fans think he does, he should have walked after pool
It's a testament to the talent we have at this club that things are just beginning to unravel. I constantly watch this club and wonder what they did during the week.
Paul Ince was the second most hated ex manutd player for me. (Micheal Owen being the first).
But I’ve started to like him a lot more over the last few weeks.
The problem with Incey was that he always said as it is. Not many people likes it. Certainly the club hierarchy didn't.
What a player he was.
Didnt Varane come out and said that he was impressed by the trainings/coaching? Surely this thread must be invalid then.
Man United are playing well.
There, I said it.
There, I said it.
Not sure if it's Utd playing well or Spurs in a similar situation to Utd with an out of depth manager.
Starting to sit deeper now. Not a good tactic 
Its the best tactic for this group of playersStarting to sit deeper now. Not a good tactic
Result but don’t let this fool us…bigger fish to tackle to come, beat city next week and I’ll lay off for a while (1 week)
Not really it's better to have the wingbacks further up the pitch in my opinion.
Starting to sit deeper now. Not a good tactic
It's actually the one tactic Ole gets right, sitting deep and be quick on the break. Think it's our best set up under Ole.
Looked like we were well coached today.
Think Norwich would of looked better than this Spurs team..
In a match between two terrible coached teams the team with better individual quality players wins.
A win is a win, & what looks to be one by a 3 goal margin is a damn good win but let’s not get carried away, we’ve been here a few times before.
Played well today. Unfortunately this approach suits our team well, especially since ronaldo has to play. very hard in Sancho who I can see getting very little game time if ole keeps his job a while longer, and even less if Conte comes in
It seems that he still hasn’t lost the dressing room as the players responded pretty well today. Still needs to get a win against Atalanta and then at least provide a good showing against City. First good step made though
I preferred the first half, wingbacks pushed on being proactive, looked much better
I've been saying this the last two weeks. Ole cannot manage anything outside of this approach. Solskjaer should just depend on this system because it will at the very least see him end the season.
