Thank you Ole.

In the top six probably. Of course it’s unfair because no one would ever take this away from Ole, nor want him to fail but we’ve got to be realistic. This is an absolute shambles of a united squad, much worse than when Ferguson started because the expectation wasn’t there like it is now.

Yes, thanks for all that but he’s not got a chance of turning this around I’m afraid. I’ll never dislike him for taking this role on but he’s so far out of his depth it’s frightening. The only person who could have made a change for us is Mourinho and look how that turned out. This is going to be an absolute disaster for Solskjaer.

I'm afraid I'll have to agree with you. Competition will be even stiffer next year and the first sign of bad form and he'll be out of the door. Unfortunately we have short sighted owners/board, with not an ounce of footballing knowledge between them, so will not want to go 2 years without UCL football and if that means continuing the revolving manager door then so be it! I'm tempted to put couple of hundred quid on Ole getting the axe next year just to soften the blow when he does.

There's no evidence whatsoever that he can cut it at this level over a season and if we start next season poorly there's a very good chance we could £#%&!ing nosedive

There’s also no evidence that he can’t. Show me any manager in history who could do anything with 90m pound players just booting the ball out of play for no £#%&!ing reason. If Mourinho couldn’t do anything with the 500m quids worth of players he and van Gaal bought, then why should he be able to?

Ole isn't to blame for this current squad ?

If he brings in 3/4 of HIS signings, develops a good level of fitness and a game method and we fail then so be it.....

Folk are calling for his head because of a shit run with shit players....

None of the players at Leicester are Rodgers'

Seems to be doing alright and has implemented his style and plan into them...

For PSG away....

For the hope returning....

To even be in contention for top four after being 11 a drift when he came in.....6th, closer to relegation than the top.

Let's get the fitness sorted, bring in your players and go again next year....

the boss.

I'm in

he's to blame for persistently picking useless @#%&!s like De Gea who has been throwing them in for weeks

we are on our worst run of form for 57 years doesn't that set any alarm bells ringing....we were all fooled by his amazing first couple of months in charge but he's out of his depth

The pressure on the signings is absolutely £#%&!ing massive. The last lot all made poor signings that sunk them below the waterline, and at least they had something existing to draw on, Ole's basically being charged with replacing this entire shooting gallery. It's not his fault, and Jesus Christ if he does do it how £#%&!ing sweet would it be, but it's a pretty onerous ask even if we were a club which was doing all the other shit right. And let's face it we're not

Thanks for the memories etc.

We were never as bad as we looked under mourinho

but the players were never as good as they looked at first under solskjaer

nobody's calling for his head. People are just quite rightly very £#%&!ing worried because there's no evidence whatsoever that we

a) have an idea how to play or

b) know how to motivate a team beyond harking on about 20 years ago and taking people down the cliff to look at the outside bogs.

I see no structure, i see no attacking plan, i see no clue how to unlock defences.

As i said in the match thread, we're all praying for a miracle as opposed to expecting it to get better.

He’s not to blame for it but he’s stuck with it. To think he’ll make his mark by bringing in two or three players is delusional. I feel like I’m grassing up one of my best mates but I honestly can’t see him having the impact we need. He’s earning respect at the minute from everyone in football because he’s a genuinely good bloke.

Bunks 100% correct, throughout the thread.

Proper pre season with the lads. His way, his pace. New signings.

Might take another season or two to get results. Get used to it.

Stuck with it !?!? What was he to do ? Public executions......

Give him a summer window FFS...

The lack of structure to our play is worrying, if he carries on going down the path of relying on individual moments to win us games, then he'll be in trouble.

£#%&! off back to Norway Ole, you are out of your depth,

I don't know that. How could I possibly know that?

I might suggest that it takes a manager time to get a team playing in his Molde... I might also suggest that him winning titles anywhere isn't something to be sniffed at (cough, Poch).

Fergie had only won things in Scotland, remind me of your thoughts on Scottish football again?
