Someone's having a real laugh - sperm of gollum to Utd.

[aws]

I expect he'll do a decent job. Which is probably the best we can hope for because he'll be sacked soon enough if he flops.   

[Barrington Womble]

I can't be happy about this appointment. I've pretty much all along hoped he'd get it rather than them going and getting someone good, but now he has the job I feel I have to respect the results so far and he might actually do a decent job for them. 

 

To bring some balance to what he's done, I imagine after a similar number of games sarri was being hailed as the 2nd coming. And now look at the poor cunt. 

 

But ultimately they had a good squad and he's allowed the players a framework to show that. I would expect next season for them to be the club most likely to close the gap on us and city.

I was slightly concerned too a few weeks back but the past few times I've seen them they've been woeful. I honestly think this will be another poor, short-term appointment for them. Well behind us and City next season is my guess

[Colt Seavers]

Surely there is only so long he can use spirit of 99 as his motivational team talk

[Iceman]

He's shite. Next season will be hilarious.

Hope you're right. They've struggle with injuries lately though, so that will impact results even if those injuries they can still roll out a team that cost 400m.

I watched a good bit of their game yesterday.

Watford have a cup semi final next weekend and are safe so would have been forgiven for taking their eye off the ball but they battered them everywhere except the scoreboard. The mancs played 9 behind the ball and played long balls to Rashford and Martial. It wasn't strategic counter attacking play, it was desperate and rushed. Watford with an extra bit of composure and quality could have scored 3 or 4 more, easily. They had 20 shots on goal. 

Solksjaer made personnel changes but tactically nothing and I genuinely believe he wont last until Christmas as this sort of luck runs out. He had 1 injury to deal with

[redheart]

Not worried in the slightest. He is tactically naive and has no record of creating a team etc.

 

Its a desperate move. The last three appointments have been garbage and they are harking bark to a glory era. Never ends well

[Ginny]

Just been over to Red Cafe and they are already turning on Ole haha ffs next season will be fun if he turns out to be shit. 

[Captain Turdseye]

[El Rojo]

Still, at least they beat a host of European giants in appointing the former Cardiff and Molde supremo.

Yup. He's already turned into a "sentimental hire" when a month ago he was the next Guardiola. 

[Dr Nowt]

Even if it’s more wasted time and opportunity to start modernising the club that’s great.

 

If it wastes some big money and sees them miss out on managers who would be a good fit for them all the better.

 

Though I think on the latter that can (with a chubby hamster inside) has just been kicked down the road a bit.

[Ronnie Whelan]

They feel like us in the mid 90s. I just can't see how a guy like Pogba can be controlled to be a good influence in a dressing room. They could do with hungry lads like Neves and Doherty from Wolves, but they will keep chasing hollywood signings and a nice bloke like Ole won't be able to manage the egos. He's their Roy Evans.

 

Them needing to take points off City is a good thing. Ideally, they win their next two games and are needing the win against City. If they are up for it, they could beat City on their day.

[Iceman]

Just need them to spawn a draw against citeh.

And same as last year, they’ll be up for it in a way they won’t be other fixtures.

[johnsusername]

Just me who thinks he looks a bit like Moyes on the touchline?

 

 

[johnsusername]

City are going to completely steamroller them, don't get your hopes up.

If it was at the Etihad then I'd agree, it'll be a much closer affair at old Trafford though.

City will batter them. Spurs have a better chance of beating City than utd do. 

 

I mean utd, have you seen them this season, they've been fucking shite. 

[Iceman]

. fuck it

 

They'll be up for the citeh game. It's all they've got left. 

[Ronnie Whelan]

Spurs have world class players but they look ropey right now. We really need them to get their confidence back heading to Manc land. They could take points off them but my feeling is it will be a hard fought 3 points for city.

 

United will be a horrible game for City imo. Derbies can level very good teams and mediocre ones like us and Everton. Imo the difference is nowhere near as great between United and City. United have some really top class players, though i am scared at the thought of their attack running at Jones and Smalling.

[Code]

This is the league table since he took charge, perfect result tonight, they really need to give everything against City now.

[Ne Moe Imya]

So their lucky run of results lasted juuuuuuust long enough for them to announce him as the next permanent manager before the wheels fell off?
