Disappointing to end with no trophies but the team is progressing. We need our owners and board to actually buy players our manager wants for a change.

----

This excuse is so tiring. No manager is going to get every player he wants. I don't care if Ole wants Grealish or Sancho. It's unrealistic to spend silly amounts especially during a pandemic.

You got to do with second choices sometimes.

Managers like klopp find gems like Wijnaldum, Jota, Mane etc. Why can't Ole?

I hear that Bruno Fernandes fella is pretty good.

Ummmm.....Emery parked the bus and his numbers came in. We weren't outplayed.

2.5 years at the club and still no answer for teams that sit back and allow us to have the ball. They know AWB is useless with the ball so they sit back and get narrow and allow the ball to go to AWB (which Villarreal did plenty of times the other day) and it’s such an easy way to nullify us.

You’d think after coming up to 3 years at the club we might have a plan B against sides like Villarreal

Apart from the fact he costs around 50-60m in addons, doesn't turn up to big games and has been poor in the second half of the season

Even on CL final night the diddums crew never let up

This was the team Jose won the Europa league with

Romero
Darmian
Smalling
Blind
Valencia
Fellaini
Pogba
Herrera
Mata
Rashford
Micky

Mostly ‘deadwood’ according to our fans and notably worse on paper than what we had starting the other day. Ole is running out of excuses.

that's the worrying part

people are seeing progress apparently

The last few games of the season completely killed any hope I had for him. I have stopped short of calling for him to be sacked. But wow it's hard not to - after some embarrassing and amateur performances from him in recent games.

He's got 28 goals and 18 assists from attacking midfield.

What more do you want ffs?

Tuchel had Chelsea better drilled in two and a half days than we are in two and a half years under Ole.

We finished 3rd and 2nd in his only two full seasons. That's the best we've done since Fergie. We haven't had back to back CL finishes before this season. So yea there is progress you utter moron

Well, a Europa league and 2nd place with 81 points is a better two season showing than what we’ve had with Ole

----------------------------------------------------------------------

He's not exactly a "gem" is he ya numpty. We spent big on him.

Plus outside his penalties he's has been poor for months

What more do I want? I want him to turn up to big games for a start. And not to waste possession. Or cry around on the floor or argue with refs rather than play the game

Bruno is a quality player and very possibly the main reason Ole is still in a job. But he does need to show up in the big games and stop the histrionics. If he played for a rival we’d mock him for that.

He's not matched Jose's best season.

Ole's league performances are consistent with his spend compared to other clubs.

Football is still crap.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

he is the only reason Ole is in a job. Bruno came in at a time where he was an unknown quantity and tore it up.

Now teams have figured Bruno out, he is less effective and even worse as Ole ran him in to the ground.

posted on 29/5/21

I hope people understand that Chelsea have had a better season than us; 4th and a CL trophy is better than 2nd and trophyless. Good progress from Chelsea.

posted on 29/5/21

Will be interesting to see how Bruno does with Portugal at the euros. Has anyone seen him playing for them? Is he good at that level?

They were different seasons let's just make that clear. Also do you want Jose back then? I'd rather have Moyes back over him.

Ole might not be the man to take us back to the title but the team has been progressing. Your consistent hissy fits don't add anything Robb. You seem to come out of the woodwork when we lose these days. Like you enjoy it.

‘Hissy fits’ 😂. I’m in a good mood. And no, I don’t want Jose back. Even though he’s the best manager we’ve had since SAF his time was up and I was more than happy for him to go. But we needed a better replacement than Ole.

And whether or not you think Poch was that guy, since Jose left we’ve missed out on Poch, Tuchel, Ancelotti, Allegri, Nagelsmann etc. I’m sure there’s more. Our club aren’t as ruthless as the likes of Chelsea and City. And that will be why every season that goes by we sit and watch other sides lift the CL and wonder why a super club like ours doesn’t. It’s because the aim isn’t to challenge the best. It’s to finish in the top 4 and as long as supporters accept that as ‘progress’ the kool aid is enough to keep it happening.

You're embarrassing if you're turning this around on Bruno ffs. What about that French dabbing prat who smirks as we lose a final? Bruno looked like each and every one of us. He was devastated.

Bruno has been a great signing for us. Anyone having a go at him for anything over last 18 months is clueless.

If he doesn't win anything next season I think he will be sacked.

You aren't really fair on him though Robb. The club above Ole is a mess is it not? I actually think he's done better than we all expected. You didn't think we'd finish top 3 under him did you?

----------------------------------------------------------------------
City aren't miles better than Chelsea. City have a better system designed to amassing points against poorer teams. But in a head to head, this result isn't surprising
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes they are.

You have been telling us that as a United how embarrassing it is that City are lightyears ahead of everybody. That includes Chelsea.

posted on 29/5/21

When the club above it is a mess, is it really wise to pin your hopes on a man that doesn’t have the ability to make up for those disadvantages?
