Last three premier league winners got more than 95 points to win the league. I don’t think this pattern will change in the near future. Unfortunately, I don’t think Ole is capable of achieving this.
Ole has been at the club for more than 30 months. This is more than enough time to implement a style or a pattern of play. There is no pattern of play to our attack. we are still relying on our flair players to make something happen. Even our counter attacking play is getting worse. Our attacking patterns, defending and pressing patterns are simply not good enough for coach who has been at the helm for more than two seasons.
In comparison, pep and Klopp set the style and playing patterns in the first season. This is the issue we are facing with recruitments. Once we set a style of play, it’s easy to identify which areas needs improving. For pep’s case it’s FBs and klopp’s case it’s the CB and GK . For us it’s much more difficult. There is no such player that we can sign that improve us to get 95 points. There is no chemistry in the team, even Messi won’t improve us that much IMO,
This is why we need to move on from Ole. Only a well driven machine like teams are capable of getting 95 points. World’s best managers are coming to PL. someone will get their team to achieve this every season for foreseeable future . I don’t think Ole is capable of drilling such a team.
So, we should move on from Ole at the end of the season. I have been supportive of him since he got the job. But this is the best we are going to get with him. As painful as it will be, We should move on if we want to grow.
Apologies for the long article

DDG is not going to be happy with the situation.
Henderson has been put under huge pressure to perform.
Romero is reportedly very unhappy with his situation.
It’s a situation that didn’t need to happen. Henderson would not have left had he remained number 2.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
De Gea hasn't been playing well for a few seasons. It's unfortunate that he will be upset at being dropped, but so what? He's getting paid a fortunate and hasn't been up to scratch. I think he will be gone in the summer.
Everything that I've heard and read about Henderson suggests that he wouldn't be at all happy as reserve keeper. His aim this season was to establish himself as no.1 and that's what appears to be happening.
Romero being upset isn't down to Ole but the money men at the club.

Unhappy senior squad members isn't good for squad harmony.
id have preferred DSG to remain number 1 and Henderson be offered the no 2 role or another loan.
If he'd chosen to force a move then sell him.

Not how football works. There's always someone younger and potentially better coming through. DDG's performances have dropped off in recent years.
You appear to want the club to be ruthless with the manager, but not the players. Very odd.

Henderson is overrated as is the case with a lot of put youngsters.
And how is suggesting we sell Henderson if he isn't happy with being no 2 not being ruthless?

Why would you sell one of our brightest prospects when the player in his position is on a downward trajectory? You can be a bit special sometimes, RDD.

Ole has got a young keeper that he thinks might be good enough to oust his current no.1, who has been out of form for a few years.
The obvious move is to give the youngster the opportunity to prove that he is good enough and you do that by first playing him in the cups. The lad has done enough to suggest that he might be up to taking over from De Gea and this Ole has now started him in the league despite De Gea being available.
Why on earth would he loan or sell a young promising keeper that he believes may be ready to become our no.1 for the next decade? That makes absolutely no sense at all. In fact, it is idiocy.

Because DDG is still a better GK than Henderson, and thr club should not be bullied by a youngster like Henderson.

DDG is still the better GK. Im all for playing Henderson in cup games and see how he gets on, but its hardly like he has been amazing.

I'd say you are in a small minority on that. Either way, Ole clearly thinks that Hendo has a chance at being our no.1, thus he is giving him a chance to prove it. Your opinion on who is the better keeper has no baring on that. And if you honestly think that Hendo has bullied was way into the team then I don't really know what to say. He's waited until near the end of the season to get his proper chance, even though many thought he could have started the season as our no.1.
