I almost thought I was making that up in my head.Ridiculous
Hard to get behind sacking ole and switching styles totally so that we can get top four and get out of a group that we are currently top of.
Well getting top 4 is quite important and I really doubt we get out of this group with Ole. Both Atalanta and Villarreal will spank us at home and 9 points won’t be enough most likely.
Its because I believe that Ten Hag will be a perfect manager for our young players who will be much more interested in playing free flowing attacking football.
Exactly. Appointing Conte will bring us back to boring defensive football.
I don't know what some fans are watching. What kind of football you think we're playing under Ole?
Personally think we will both get top four and get out of the group, not sure why it is some kind of guarantee that we wouldn't. I agree with what you are saying that basically nothing to play for this season with ole or Conte, just think that means we should be patient and get a manager that actually makes sense
What kind of football do you expect under Conte?
Conte is literally the best manager available. Who do you reckon we should get right now? And I'm not talking about fantasy appointments like Ten Hag. Give me a realistic target. And Conte doesn't play defensive football, that's a myth. Last season his Inter basically dismantled all the top teams in Italy with easy. If that's defensive football, then I really don't know what you'd call Oleball.
The point in a 3-at-the-back formation is, that you can save yourself the DM. Makes no sense to put Matic in front of three CBs. If we wanted to do that, we wouldn't have to go 3-4-3 for it.
Conte said after the game that Wenger had been criticized for losing 3 nil the week before and that he wasn't stupid enough to play open and lose 3 or 4 nil, so they just stood there while 1 nil down. Was absolutely incredible. Reading a few quotes here to remind myself
I'm hopeful we steer clear of Conte because I'm hoping we take a holistic approach to hiring a new Head Coach. I'm a firm believer in coaches who implement a proactive brand of football that looks to impose and dominate the game. And 3 of the best coaches in the EPL do just that, with two of those implementing a strong positional game which is something someone like ten Hag also does similarly to dominate zones to exert control. I've had enough of seeing United play reactive football against the big clubs. Hopefully Paul Hirst is correct and we target a new man who will juggle the hear and now along with developing some very bright young talented players who are on the cusp of the first team.
Probably two, to replace pogba and Bruno to fit his system, plus a right wing back and a centre back I'd say. We are far from the ideal squad for a Conte team
Give up on the idea that every manager is clamoring for the United job and plans to stay here 20 years. Not happening. As far as leaving his clubs in tatters, that's ridiculous. Chelsea, Juventus and Inter now have been very successful after he left them. Leaving his clubs in "tatters" would be the last critique anyone would have of Conte.
I said no fantasy appointments. We're not getting Ten Hag mid-season. Might as well have said we should try to poach Klopp or something, about as realistic of a scenario.
What we are doing right now has nothing to do with the next appointment. Getting it right is as important as sacking Ole. Wouldn't mean much if we screw it up with another defensive manager just because he was available. Anybody wants to talk about Conte's European record?
No way we get top four with Ole in charge for the rest of the season. Your living in cloud cuckoo land if you think we will.
Alright, I'm worried about him now with that mentality.
