"“I think, for example, you look at the first goal, it can’t be possible that they can have sort of three running through in the first five minutes. We need to be more compact, we need to be better and we know that.
“I think also maybe we can say this result was coming.
“I think in past games where we’ve won, we haven’t been at our best and we know that.
“We felt that inside the dressing room and today we need to reflect and we have to move on from this because it hurts.”
Note: they felt it, Ole didn't, he was oblivious, he says "we are nearly there"
where?

Ole is as stubborn as a mule. Spurs, Chelsea and City must be licking their lips.
He has to go.

The reality is that Ole has made a complete armature job of Utd. You have a completely solid team with no weaknesses and yet he's mismanaged it through sheer incompetence. He'll never work outside of Norway again once sacked.

Y do we even bother
What’s the point of keeping solskjaer to see if he can prove himself against Tottenham
We’re just throwing away points for no reason

Ideally you want a manager like professor yaffle and players like the mice

Reactionary response was that maybe Ole should go now... then I snapped out of that stupid 2021 football logic and remembered Sir Alex's reign.
Man Utd getting walloped by the likes of I think Middlesbrough, Newcastle and Southampton... never mind Arsenal and Chelsea... and I'm talking around 99-2002! Finishing 3rd, below Liverpool, Chelski dominating, City rising... then Utd winning the title next season anyway.
So I've no desire to see Ole or any manager sacked after, only potentially, one season dip after constant improvement. He'll just be replaced by someone who the same people will demand the sack of in a year or 2.

by Driving_MadThe difference is that Ole has spent hundreds of millions. He has no excuses, he’s lucky Ronaldo has saved him in several games this season.
So have the other clubs. That's how much players cost now. Fergie spent that equivalent on players too but had crap seasons and flops.
Spending money doesn't entitle anyone to magically become champions of whatever league they're in... especially when everyone else is doing it too.
For me the fact is United have improved their league position every year Ole's been in charge, and it's driven opposing fans batshit laughing at our results then still seeing their club finish below us. Sign of a good job.

Sunday was one of the most heartbreaking days I’ve ever experienced at Old Trafford.
A lot has been said about Ole over the past 48 hours. I don’t necessarily think he’s the right man to take the squad that he’s built forward from this point, but I’ll always be incredibly grateful for what he’s done for us over the past 3 years. If this is the end, then I love him, and I’ll miss him.
I remember how I’d started falling out of love with football from 2014-18, how watching us play started feeling like a chore rather than something I looked forward to. Even when we were winning I was enjoying the results but not the 90 minutes leading to that point. The crowd were largely dead during the games because there was little to react to at times. The adventures of Woodward and the sponsors had overshadowed the footballing side entirely. It was an era of this clubs history I’d never, ever want to revisit even despite the odd trophy here and there. The apathy around the place was staggering.
Ole’s Man United made me fall in love again. The miracle of Paris, the high-scoring wins, the rise of Greenwood, the resurrection of Rashford, Shaw and Pogba, the wins on derby day, the rising noise of Old Trafford, the brief title challenge in lockdown when there was nothing else to look forward to, the hype around Bruno and Cavani, the rapid counterattacking goals, the euphoria of “Ronaldo day”. It was exciting, it was fun again. It was Manchester United again.
His song is true ... he made us happy when skies were grey ❤️

by mondays childRemember that Alex Ferguson was allegedly one game away from the sack in 1990? Ole Gunnar Solskjaer should remain as manager.

by NJAGetting a top manager worked quickly for Chelsea and man city, but because we picked the wrong top managers before people like Gary Neville are saying it's not the answer.
we are mid season you wont see any massive improvements if a new manager comes in they need the beginning of the season to set the team the way they want
