People can’t use the money spent by Jose argument to slate him by saying he had advantages because of that money spent but also say they were duds.

To simplify it, if United spent £300m in the summer on Callum Wilson, he isnt suddenly going to be the best player on the planet.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No... But who bought him for that... And whoever it was deserves criticism
If you spend the money badly its your fault...
---------------------------------------------------------------------
But what if the manager wanted him and the fans want the execs to back the manager?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Who's responsible if he's crap
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Whoever identified him as a target.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Jesus, I wish I'd seen this comment before I'd responded above.
You can't be serious, surely?
Why can't they use that argument? Jose signed the duds. He sanctioned the player deals. Not only could he not get his team playing decent football with his own purchases, most of those purchases - signed for big money - are widely considered failures. Who's fault is that? That he had the time and financial backing to make such deal is an advantage that Ole hasn't yet had.
That Jose failed to capitalise on the clear advantages he had doesn't mean those advantages never existed in the first place.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I think Robs point is that the 'he spent £400m' argument' is normally used in the following equation
The more you spend, the better you are, no matter the player or how he performs = Manager cant even do well with a brilliant (expensive) squad.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The point is... The more you spend the better you should be
He spent... And we weren't 450 million better off on the pitch
You were sounding reasonably sensible against hippo... Don't f*ck it up trying to rescue nobb
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Should. But it very rarely happens.
Robb therefore is correct. You cant argue both that Jose wasted £450m AND that we should be much better because we have £450m of players
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No he's not
If we should be better... But we're not... Because his judgement was poor
Then its his fault... And he's wasted the money
If he's spent it... It's his responsibility if we're not better
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Nobody is arguing if the manager is responsible for improving the team. It’s that he either spent well in which case he should be criticised for not doing better OR he bought badly in which case he did as well as he could with the players he bought.

What if the manager didn't, but the CEO decided it was a good idea to buy him?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Then you certainly couldnt use the transfer fee spend to judge the managers ability.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
So you blame ed?
Cool... Got there in the end

If no idea where you think Ed features in this imaginary situation

Nobody is arguing if the manager is responsible for improving the team. It’s that he either spent well in which case he should be criticised for not doing better OR he bought badly in which case he did as well as he could with the players he bought.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
that is utterly stupid
you don't criticise him for buying rubbish hahahahahahah
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Nobody is saying that. Of course you do. But you can’t also argue he should he doing better with his rubbish squad just because we got ripped off on prices.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Being ripped off on prices is irrelevant... He chose the players because he believed they would improve the team and we'd do better
Its literally why clubs buy players
And if its his choice and his expectation... Then you absolutely can criticise if it doesn't work out... And moreso if they cost a fortune
Not just with jose... With any manager

People can’t use the money spent by Jose argument to slate him by saying he had advantages because of that money spent but also say they were duds.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Jesus, I wish I'd seen this comment before I'd responded above.
You can't be serious, surely?
Why can't they use that argument? Jose signed the duds. He sanctioned the player deals. Not only could he not get his team playing decent football with his own purchases, most of those purchases - signed for big money - are widely considered failures. Who's fault is that? That he had the time and financial backing to make such deal is an advantage that Ole hasn't yet had.
That Jose failed to capitalise on the clear advantages he had doesn't mean those advantages never existed in the first place.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I think Robs point is that the 'he spent £400m' argument' is normally used in the following equation
The more you spend, the better you are, no matter the player or how he performs = Manager cant even do well with a brilliant (expensive) squad.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The point is... The more you spend the better you should be
He spent... And we weren't 450 million better off on the pitch
You were sounding reasonably sensible against hippo... Don't f*ck it up trying to rescue nobb
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Should. But it very rarely happens.
Robb therefore is correct. You cant argue both that Jose wasted £450m AND that we should be much better because we have £450m of players
----------------------------------------------------------------------
But rarely happens is balls btw
Clubs buy players... Why?
To get better... To improve... To play better football...
If it doesn't work who's fault is it
The managers
Or if its a DOF... His
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Or the players, surely ?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
ffs hahahah
who chose the player
----------------------------------------------------------------------
At United the manager chooses the players.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
So.... Jose's responsibility after all then agreed .. So you can argue that he has wasted the money and should be doing better
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes. But if the players he signed are poor, then how can you argue he should have achieved more with them ?
Jose bought rubbish players for £450m.
Jose should have won the league with his £450m players.
Which is it?

To simplify it, if United spent £300m in the summer on Callum Wilson, he isnt suddenly going to be the best player on the planet.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No... But who bought him for that... And whoever it was deserves criticism
If you spend the money badly its your fault...
---------------------------------------------------------------------
But what if the manager wanted him and the fans want the execs to back the manager?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Who's responsible if he's crap

Whoever identified him as a target.

What if the manager didn't, but the CEO decided it was a good idea to buy him?

Then you certainly couldnt use the transfer fee spend to judge the managers ability.

So you blame ed?
Cool... Got there in the end

People can’t use the money spent by Jose argument to slate him by saying he had advantages because of that money spent but also say they were duds.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Jesus, I wish I'd seen this comment before I'd responded above.
You can't be serious, surely?
Why can't they use that argument? Jose signed the duds. He sanctioned the player deals. Not only could he not get his team playing decent football with his own purchases, most of those purchases - signed for big money - are widely considered failures. Who's fault is that? That he had the time and financial backing to make such deal is an advantage that Ole hasn't yet had.
That Jose failed to capitalise on the clear advantages he had doesn't mean those advantages never existed in the first place.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I think Robs point is that the 'he spent £400m' argument' is normally used in the following equation
The more you spend, the better you are, no matter the player or how he performs = Manager cant even do well with a brilliant (expensive) squad.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The point is... The more you spend the better you should be
He spent... And we weren't 450 million better off on the pitch
You were sounding reasonably sensible against hippo... Don't f*ck it up trying to rescue nobb
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Should. But it very rarely happens.
Robb therefore is correct. You cant argue both that Jose wasted £450m AND that we should be much better because we have £450m of players
----------------------------------------------------------------------
But rarely happens is balls btw
Clubs buy players... Why?
To get better... To improve... To play better football...
If it doesn't work who's fault is it
The managers
Or if its a DOF... His
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Or the players, surely ?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
ffs hahahah
who chose the player
----------------------------------------------------------------------
At United the manager chooses the players.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
So.... Jose's responsibility after all then agreed .. So you can argue that he has wasted the money and should be doing better

No he's not
If we should be better... But we're not... Because his judgement was poor
Then its his fault... And he's wasted the money
If he's spent it... It's his responsibility if we're not better
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Nobody is arguing if the manager is responsible for improving the team. It’s that he either spent well in which case he should be criticised for not doing better OR he bought badly in which case he did as well as he could with the players he bought.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
that is utterly stupid
you don't criticise him for buying rubbish hahahahahahah
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Nobody is saying that. Of course you do. But you can’t also argue he should he doing better with his rubbish squad just because we got ripped off on prices.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Being ripped off on prices is irrelevant... He chose the players because he believed they would improve the team and we'd do better
Its literally why clubs buy players
And if its his choice and his expectation... Then you absolutely can criticise if it doesn't work out... And moreso if they cost a fortune
Not just with jose... With any manager

Yes. But if the players he signed are poor, then how can you argue he should have achieved more with them ?

Jose bought rubbish players for £450m.
Jose should have won the league with his £450m players.
Which is it?
