No way Jose?

My issue with LVG is he has failed to convince me he's the answer from day one and has done very little to convince me otherwise since. Bar 4 or 5 games the football has been a bore, the tactics confusing, the excuses grow by the week and the philosophy flawed.

We might see improvements and we still should get top 4 but not because LVG is doing anything particular good.

If we don't want Jose then there's nothing I can do to alter that, I just hope we actually have a proven talent in mind to take over at some stage.

LVG will be sacked if our results don't change. The media always get their man. Imagine if we drew and lost our next two games.

Jose is a 2 year manager with a scorched earth policy of management and does not fancy youth players. All hat is left for him to be is a lilypool fan and he would be the most anti-United manager ever to exist.

I honestly cannot take any united fan who sees Mourinho an seriously. They are just thinking about the next game rather than the next few seasons. We have the money to be Real Madrid, does not mean we therefore behave like them.

LVG joined united for 3 years before retiring.

Pep spent 4 years at Barca, 3 at Bayern.

Average tenure of a PL manager is now c. 2 years.

Think people need to get away from this looking for a manager for the next 20 years mentality.

***

but this is the crux.

Ed and his cronies including LVG staedfastly believe that the way out of this mess is if we ALL rally around. Fans in their internet bedrooms, Supporters at the stadiums, Players, Staff, Friendly Journos, Directors Pundits, ex players.... and talk the recovery up, then the results WILL come.

Of course if the results dont.... he will have to go. This is exactly what LVG means when he says that he might have to resign.

He will decide when enough is enough, and things wont improve. Like he says United could already be a lost cause. But he will be the judge of that and he will let us all know when and if.

He certainly isnt going to let Jose determine that by being sacked by Chelsea. And Eds with him on that.

And why should we? Why shouldnt we try to sustain something that has served us and many other teams too. I refuse to accept our management policy involves sacking someone after 2 months (which included one of the worst injury periods in our history) and see sacking a manager after a few months as "ok" It does not work for the richest club in the world, why should we be happy to follow this trend? because we cannot stand low periods in our histry? Nah I do not accept that

Very happy that crazed up psyco Jose is probably not coming in.

Are you on drugs?

Ed may well find himself out of a job if we don't make top 4, so maybe he should try removing the biggest barrier to achieving that goal (LVG). It's time for him to swallow his pride and do what's right for the club.

And why should we?
===========

because its unrealistic.


Why shouldnt we try to sustain something that has served us and many other teams too.
==================

which other teams has it served? other than arsenal - who haven't won the PL for a decade - name me another top club that consistently keeps its managers for 5 years +.

and lvg wouldn't be sacked for the past 2 months, but because he hasn't really brought much improvement to the team over the past 18 months.

I THINK the power struggle on the board ie. Fergie and SBC with the Old Boys and Ed with his new people and advisors is very much in progress. Glazers went to Ed for LVG after Fergie fecked up with Moyes. If LVG fails I think they will see it as the new man Woodward failing and might make him the fall guy?

Maybe? Justt speculating

Not true. The club will be hoping that Giggs or Neville can do just that when the time comes.

I am amazed at the amount of power and control Woodward supposedly has at the club. He's an accountant!

yep, well they tried that with moyes, giving him a 6 year contract, and that didn't even last 12 months.

But what proof is there to suggest either can do that?

In dreamland we would all love for that to happen and them to succeed but is it really possible? For me it's this fantasy land thinking that is making me worry about the future of our club.

And? That means that Giggs and Neville will also fail? Great logic there mate.

I know 1982, the board level is very outdated now. I think we should start employing a DoF model, set some sort of philosophy at playing level and hire a manager who adheres to it and buys players for it. Times are changing, Woodward shouldn't be relied upon to run the football side of things.
