This is a relegation threatened team that is dominating possession at OT! Let that sink in for a minute, that's how poor we've been!
We are an awfully coached team

Somebody needs to make a video of the first 4 minutes of this half. The inability to play out, lack of intensity when ball is lost, horrific decisions in terms of giving away fouls and general apathy and shoulder shrugging has been masterclass in mediocrity. Really really horrific
Weve been well outfought by Sheffield United and West Brom recently. Though yes, tonight we are being shown up.
Do we look like a side who have just been told that we were not good enough in that first half.
Sick of watching us. Literally so much time being invested in being miserable.
I bloody hope we make top 4 and don't renew his contract and make the switch.

2-1 to us
3 year contract for Ole please

If you're expecting everyone to be happy because we're now winning, then don't. The result will again paper over the cracks. We are going absolutely nowhere with this coaching team.
They can at the CAF! What the hell do people think is on the overhead before subs? Naked pictures or patterns of play?
So much negativity in here. Dark, dark, dark place.
It is like this place is try out for Saurons army.

Half of the back four hahahahahaha
We have 70% possession after 86 minutes. Sit down.
We are in terrible form just confused again by the shifting narrative... Is the squad good enough or not
Results are the most important aspect and somehow Ole is getting enough of them over the line. The issue is that a team that is performing bad is eventually going to concede to bad results overtime. I've reiterated this again and again that Solskjaer will not stand the test of time as a manager here if he cannot give the first 11 an identity. An identity in ethos, philosophy, patterns of play, movement, cohesiveness etc those are the foundations of a winning team.
We are 2nd despite of OGS not because of him.
How did ole and his band of yes men think shoretire was ready ???????
People with agenda don't care about stats. They just write what they think.
Hahaha don't cry
I bet that's destroying you inside.
That’s nonsense
Yep a lot better and top scorers in league too.
We were very poor tonight in my opinion but scored 3 goals was comfortable at the end
He's not wrong. You're a fool to think Ole is the reason why we are second.
Agreed. We have far too much quality not to win games like this. No one can watch this team and say that it is greater than sum of its parts.
So why we 2nd then?
Our defence is comedy, there obvious flaws in the 11 and squad, if he was so bad surely we'd been like Chelsea before sacking frank or snowballing like Liverpool or spurs. Unless you think we got absolute quality just bettered by City.
Don't be intimidated by all the true believers.
Your eyes don't lie to you. We are shit and we struggled against a team that's a candidate for the Championship.
We dont' score goals based on a system or a distinguished style of play, we do it based on our excellent players.
That's why our strikers seem to be crap because they get no service and we create nothing for them.
To say nothing for the lack of subs and tactical awareness.
I am not seeing a team that is clearly better than last season. Sorry to disagree with you.
If anything this game proves that we're not a well coached team, but a team with ton of quality that can see things through. Ole needs to improve.
Suppose we're 14 points better off than we were last season at this point despite him as well...
Disgraceful take.
It's illrevant what people might think they are seeing.
Stats don't lie at all.
Defensive we prob worse off but as I said before comedy show at the back.
I see very clear patterns of play. You can’t?
One touch passing by the middle pivots improving. The left side of Rashford/Shaw is so very productive.
‘There are execution issues at time in build up or in the box. But even top teams have to endure that. I see nothing of the awfulness that we had to under Moyes, LVG and Mourinho. Are we perfect? No. But this team, when fully fit and firing is miles better than any post SAF squad. That’s a fact backed up by record, goal scoring and goal difference.
Ole outers are bed wetting cretins.
It’s the complete opposite. We’re second as a direct result of Ole’s good work. The only reason we aren’t higher is because there are several players playing regularly in the first team who aren’t good enough.
Yes, actually you're right. We're second because Ole struck gold and signed Bruno. Otherwise he'd have been sacked by now. I don't agree that Ole is the reason why we are second though and I certainly think we could do better or be closer to City anyway, and performed considerably better in the UCL, if we had a better coaching team - including Ole.
Normally I'd agree but I'm just so sick of them all. They are bringing a toxic atmosphere over our club. They are the worst.
If they find it so bad I wish they all do something else until Ole is no longer the manager whenever that is.
Let how silly you are sink in
Our 2nd half coaching is quite okay though.
Good grief. The drama
You have to realize some people are only happy when they are miserable.They really are a drag on our fan base. I’m hoping some of them sod off to support Bayern or PSG. They can complain that they only won the league by 12 pts...
This is where I am at. Overtime, results and performances will find equilibrium. Our performances are consistently average. Until that improves, I am sorry, I cannot have faith.
Bruno was a great signing that epitomises the sensible squad building Ole has attempted to oversee, in spite of some poor backing in the recent summer window.
I don’t think this current team is capable of a great deal more until we bring in another goal scoring forward and a proper centre half that addresses our glaring weaknesses. We also lack a central midfielder who can properly knock it about, in truth.
I see a team that plays a lot of good football in spurts: identifiable patterns of pay (Jesus) exist. I also see a team that is hamstrung by flaky forwards who sometimes look like they couldn’t hit a barn door. No fancy-Dan coaching team is going to change that any time soon.
We’re going in the right direction although we look considerably poorer when Pogba is not in the side. Ole is meeting his part of the bargain; I think the board needs to do the same and equip him with a team that can win the title.
