I think our league position hides a lot of our problems. Points wise we may finish once again on 66 pts which is the same as the previous two finishes under Ole. LvG and Mou were also out of their depth in the end. What all three have in common are that they've been let down by.
But Ole does not appear to have any strategy for how we play football over two years into the job. It's very random and it is reflected in our results and the lack of improvement in our players. People are loving Luke Shaw this season, they say look at what Ole did. Seem to recall Shaw playing a lot of games middle of 2017/18 for Mou and looking back to his best. This guy has been here for 7 years in the summer and never had any consistency. Even turn back a few months this season, look at what United fans were saying about him after the 6-1.
I feel very downhearted about it all. Personally I don't think we can a trophy with Ole. Every single big game, big stakes moments - we have failed.

I don't think his post is extreme either, to be fair it has to be taken into account the hostility he received. But i'll give him the benefit of the doubt that he is not one of those types you describe.
What's more embarrassing than being proven wrong about Ole knowing his shit? Wishing him to fail just to look like you were right about it. This guy has been one of the more likeable United legends. What would be better than to succeed with him?
Would feel much better than the trophies we won under Mou who was just a hired gun. This guy genuinely loves United and no real United fan would root against him. But it has been long enough now in my eyes, i've seen enough. Hope he turns it around!
