Manchester United, that didn't last long. Seven up

[youthnkzR]

Are United fans happy with Solskjaer?

From an outsiders view point, it just looks bizarre. Ignoring the fact he is a legend, he does't really have any pedigree as a manager at all. I don't really understand it. Just writing off this season to allow the time to get the right guy in the Summer I guess. Why not just go all out for the right person now?

Why do you need 6 months to appoint a new manager?

Happy Mourinho has gone. OK with Solskjaer.

Not gonna make top 4, not gonna get relegated.

Nobody with any quality was gonna come, happy to give Ole a shot and see if he can pull something out of the bag. Interested / excited to see what this squad can do with a more attacking style (have read / watched a fair bit about how Ole sets his teams up)... After years and years of LVG and Jose god knows we needed this.

Pretty much a win win situation. We freeroll him becoming a fantastic UTD manager, if not at least the atmosphere is lifted and we shOOOOOOT more.

He knows the club


I have no idea what that means this rubbish that Man United is so different to anything else in football is just that

he must be pinching himself today his cv would not get him a job at the top end of the championship

The Manchester United 'way' innit.

They play nice football, they don't sack managers, they have a million youth players coming through the ranks etc

All clubs are envious of the well oiled Salford machine.

Many clubs are envious of our history.

The Busby Babes
The first English club to win the European Cup
12 FA Cup wins
20 Top flight league wins
One of only two teams to have done the league and FA Cup double more than once. Three, the same number as Arsenal. It’s only been done 11 times in all.
The only English Club to do the treble

A lot of clubs, including one that plys it’s trade in close proximity to us are envious of our history.

Our youth programme produced the class of ‘92 - a group of players that made Alan Hansen eat his words.
Our current squad includes two England players who have come through outr academy, and produced more EPL players last season than any other.

Nobody envies us our present predicament, and it suits fans of other, lesser clubs, to pretend that we are now in terminal decline. We’re not in good shape, but if it takes money to get us back on track then we’ll generate that money ourselves by utilising the goodwill and support that that history has built.

It takes money to get you back on track?  You’ve already spent bucketloads of money and have a higher wage bill than Man City.  Playing the poverty card is a bit absurd.

If it takes money.

Not sure where I played the poverty card either. Just the **bitter envious one that the sheikhs rolled into the wrong side of town 




** not really envious. No truly that bothered where others get their money in this context, but it does give an extra button to press when debating with City fans

[arbboy]

City just spend their money in a much more effective/efficient manner than your owners/corporates do.  That's the reality of the situation.  Comparing some of your signings and their signings for similar fees/wages you really wonder how the marketing manager EW still has a job more than anyone at the club.  He is so out of his depth running that club it's embarrassing. Him being the CEO is as crazy as Pulis being your next manager in the summer.  You could put a trainee accountant straight out of uni in as CEO there and the money would still roll in like it has under him.  

You have tried the 'money route to fix it' it doesn't work at the very top it just attracts the pension seekers and gold diggers that you have attracted recently who have little desire to play for the club other than to line their own pockets when you are miles off being the best club in the league/europe.  When you have an rookie CEO who doesn't know what he is doing and wants a quick fix to protect his cash cow brand and his own job/reputation he shouldn't have in the first place.  Totally different throwing money at stuff when the truly best players in the world don't want to play for you which is the reality for the last 5 years.    Imagine the mess you would be in without the keeper who really should have gone back to Spain

Ignoring the hyperbole, and the ‘trainee accountant’ line, you’re about right.

It’s going to be an interesting few months I think.

Not just any money either, but historic money built from goodwill and history. And more history.

There is no finer currency than the historic £.

No bitterness here.

Just sheer enjoyment at watching united fans morph into Liverpool fans.

It's tough trying to figure out which is more amusing...

Are these the same players?

Amazing what happens when you release the horses

Amusing to see UTD doing well after The Special One has gone, but the first thing I would have done(after the congrats) was fine the feckers at least a months salary, especially Pogba.
