Still the wrong decision by the club. We’re drifting for 3-4 years now.

We need an interim manager who can steady the ship in the league and focus on the CL.

Not saying we'll win it, but we need to build back some belief that we have the tools in the future to win a big trophy.

I feel sorry for Ole on the whole, as he was always going to be the scapegoat for when things turned bad. The owners should feel ashamed at how badly they have dragged this great club down. Not that they care.

They will need to sign some decent players and gel immediately. I make them 50/50 for the drop but yeah, they are in trouble.

They got Joelinton to score yesterday which means he has contributed more than Sancho this season

Yeah maybe I was being optimistic when I said favourites. Probably more like 50/50 to be fair.

Which is still cracking odds for a multi, multi-billionaire owned club

Agreed. United need a long term plan not a knee jerk reaction to a few bad results.

……

There are too many reasons why I don’t feel sorry for Ole. Some of his player decisions have been wrong.

The only way he will get any sympathy from me is if Ronaldo was forced on him.

The biggest positive from yesterday by a mile was Donny van de Beek’s performance. 3 or 4 brilliant attacking passes, a goal & he put himself about all half.

Hopefully he’s given some proper game time now to build upon that.

Agree with this. Reminded me of Herrera, who I believe we have missed.

Another player Ole should not have let go if he wasn’t going to replace him with someone better.

He had some major flaws during his tenure here. Some that contributed to his downfall. But as we all know, Ole was only a part of the bigger problems here.

As for wanting Ronaldo, i feel Ole literally had little say in that. But at the end of the day, it's Ronaldo coming back.

Indeed we can’t complain on the Ronaldo one ( I know I do) when the vast majority of our fans were over the moon with it.

I was personally in two minds over having Ronaldo back. But he has shut me up with some of his crucial goals. But it does feel like it was in vain often (due to how poor we have been this season)

posted on 21/11/21

I was very happy to see Ronaldo back at ManU. Having spunked £73M on Sancho, it made no sense to sign him, despite making millions on shirt sales. I’ve yet to see him being the difference in that team now that he’s playing.

Long may he play for them, thus keeping young players with really good potential out of the team.

I know a Newcastle fan who is obsessed with United. Constantly posting stuff on social media laughing at our current predicament and you’re thinking you’re bottom of the league without a win pipe down.

One of the reasons I hope they go down.

Agreed - always liked Herrera. Big game player. Though I believe the "letting him go" part was out of Ole's hands and that the damage was done during contract negotiations a long time before he eventually departed.

Watford were class and smelled blood!

That relegation battle is an interesting one.

Newcastle are in a holding pattern from now til jan 1 when we all presume the flood gates will open and a massive spending splurge will bring 6 or 7 new players in ASAP

Newcastle 6 points. next 9 games. Arsenal (woeful) Norwich (6 pointer), burnely (6 pointer) Leicester away, Liverpool away. Man city, Man utd, Everton, southampton. Thats up to jan 2.

Simply put they have to win those 6 pointers and scrape up a point or two along the way. 14 points imo would be an excellent retrun for them.

Norwich 8 points. wolves, newcaslte, spurs, man utd, villa, west ham. arsenal, palace, Leicester. thats not great is it? They can't afford to lose to newcastle but they shoul still eb 19th or 20th come january.


Burnely, Leeds and Watford AND bretford are going to fight for the final spot. villa are in a completely false position right now. wolves were there earlier and are now 6th.

villa next fixutres: Palace, Man city, Leicester, Liverpool, Norwich, Burnley, Cheslea, Leeds, Brentford. a Mixed bag where the should be targeting 12-15 points and that puts them in good stead to kick on in January

Good post moreinjured

Yes if Newcastle are in that battle for the final spot with those you mentioned, it’d make for an exciting final couple of months.

And we might have a genuine 3 horse race at the top.

I say we, I mean we can all watch it. . You’ll have the pleasure of competing I’m sure.

I’d be happy to settle for a CL trophy instead.

Yeah he’d been tapped up by PSG I reckon.
