RoverDom Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 If Ole ain't gone in the next couple of days the FA surely need to investigate whether Liverpool have planted staff into the United executive team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoverDom Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 In his defence until this season he's done the best job at utd since fergie left. 3rd and 2nd place in the last two seasons. Then he got given a squad which should push on and he just looked incapable of taking them to the next level and now the wheels have come off.

Moderation Lead K-Hod Posted November 21, 2021 Moderation Lead Share Posted November 21, 2021 I feel a bit sorry for Solskjaer in some ways, as he’s been so painfully out of his depth this season. But then, continuing to select Fred and McTominay and not use Van De Beek at all was baffling. Then Van De Beek scored yesterday, four minutes after coming on. The number of red cards suggests a discipline problem, particularly Maguire yesterday (the fact it was two bookings in under ten minutes, I’ve not seen it yet). It’s a big mess that needs to be sorted out in reality and I’ve no idea what manager they could or should go for now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was under the impression he'd largely built a decent squad. Using that squad effectively (leaving van de beck and sancho out for example) is a different question mind but the 25 is good isn't it?

That’s the problem, individually lots of them are good but he hasn’t created a team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaddyrovers Posted November 21, 2021 Author Share Posted November 21, 2021 (edited) Key part from that statement that Michael Carrick will now take charge of the team for forthcoming games, while the club looks to appoint an interim manager to the end of the season. So they are waiting for someone till the summer like Pochettino from PSG or Ten Hag from Ajax. So want an interim manager but who available.

Appointing Solksjaer in the first place was a really odd decision. After the mess Manchester United was in morale wise then needed someone like him. But the failing to signed a top class defensive midfielder cost him and the team. Don't ever think his summer transfer plan include signing Ronaldo tbh. Also why sign Sancho and not use him until yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt83 Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 Ole sacked. A terrible appointment. Was never going to work. Totally ill-equipped to do that job. Plus the added fact he was a club legend meant they’d drag on far too long with him which of course they duly did. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backroom DE. Posted November 21, 2021 Backroom Share Posted November 21, 2021 Solskjaer overachieved relative to his experience and ability up until this season. Defeat in the Europa League final triggered a downward spiral he's been unable to halt. Ronaldo has provided some temporary relief but has also completely altered Solskjaer's original vision of how he wanted his team to play. He either wasn't strong enough to voice his opposition to the signing or simply never had enough power for his opinion to make a difference anyway. From Utd's point of view I don't think he should ever have been given the job permanently. A stronger boardroom would have ignored fan sentiment after the successful caretaker run, thanked Ole for his contribution and hired a manager that conformed to the club's vision of where they saw themselves going forward. I doubt United ever really had a clear vision, though, so appointing Ole was the easiest option 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
