You mean they should allow Spurs to take their own pound of flesh fest?

I think there is a thread on Conte somewhere, i need to revisit it now.

It's still speculation thought

Of course, Conte would be very useful at Man Utd. How about Zidane? Sounds like a good option to me too. He doesn't have much coaching experience anyway, I understand that.

1) The club broke the world record transfer fee for Mourinho and two of the three most expensive signings in MU history were under Mourinho.

2) MU also broke the club record transfer fee for LVG, and gave him so much control and freedom of transfer and club policy that they allowed him to dismantle and get rid of many of the players from the all conquering SAF era (Evra, Nani, RVP, Chicharito, Zaha, Evans, the Twins, Kagawa, Keane, Welbeck) and bring in a whole assemblage of expensive signings - most of whom were worse than the players he got rid of (Depay, Mark Red, Darmian, Schneiderlin, Schweinsteiger, Falcao etc).

That said the club make a crucial mistake in the transition plan. The roadmap was to leave LVG in charge for 3 years with Giggs as his under-study/learning under him, then let him retire and allow Giggs to take over and have continuity with a manager from within the club ranks (with assistance from other ex players like Nicky Butt). However, the club prematurely aborted the plan, fired LVG, and lost Giggs in the process. This meant everything went back to square one/started the search for managerial stability all over again.

The point is that Ole was backed even more than those two managers.
It's a fact that when Mourinho finished second and asked the board to give him a final push in the transfer market so as to challenge for the title, what he got was Fred and Dalot.
When Ole finished 2nd, look at the players that the board has rewarded him with. Way more.

And on Van Gaal, essentially you agree with me, they messed up by not sticking to the plan, they didn't back him with time, he was doing on the right track.

Is there anything we can point to that the board hasn't done for Ole.

Actually i commend them for the way they have gone about things since they appointed Ole, they have shown full support thus far.
If they dicide to sack him after this run of games, i think it would be more or being worried about the lack of form and being worried about the top 4 being in danger

Each of Pogba and Lukaku cost more than anyone Ole has ever signed (even allowing for player price inflation!).

For all his faults (bore you to sleep sideways passing), LVG had a tactical plan: defend and anaesthetise the opposition by keeping the ball and never allowing them to touch it. With a limited squad it worked and LVG actually had the second best defensive record in the league (amazing when you consider that he had the likes of Guillermo Varela, Tyler Blackett, and Paddy McNair in defence and Fellaini as his AM). The timing of LVG's sacking was brutal (1 day after he won the club's first trophy after the SAF era). We can also thank LVG for promoting Rashford to the first team as a raw 18yo.

How would things have gone if LVG had a third season in charge, Giggs succeeded him and got Mourinho's signings? (Pogba, Zlatan, Lukaku, Bailly etc)
