Apt, bar the generalization on United fans!

Glad to see United fans haven't recovered from their "Short Memory" syndrome. This is literally the Ole way. Start the season with a statement victory (4-0 against Chelsea, 5-1 against Leeds). Get fans dreaming of winning the League. String together a number of tight wins after. Then go on a torrid patch of form with some depressing performances against small teams, with a tough fixture list against big teams immediately ahead. Have fans hoping he gets the sack after losing these big games. Suddenly he turns it around by inspiring Rashy and the boys to "go out there and play for the badge;" gets massive results from these games with counterattacking football. Gets everyone off his back. Finishes the season trophyless but in the top four. Signs a new, 3-year contract. Gets expensive players for the new season. Starts the new season with a statement victory. Has fans dreaming of the League. Rinse and repeat.

But with such performances, Ole's United will struggle big time away to Villareal and both legs vs Atalanta.
Dropping back to Europa is another possibility again
Re: Manchester United - News, Developments & Season
...one can always smell a goal when opponents near united 18 yard box.
Dalot being oyinbo some feel is better than wan Basaka.
I think that Brazilian left back did redeem himself with that wonderful equalizer.

Re: Manchester United - News, Developments & Season
you guys want a defensive midfielder yet?
Even Ronaldo was stunned that Gray was able to bully them like that and still stand! Ronaldo kept gesturing, "you couldnt take him out???" Remarkable! How is a team of players who make millions unable to understand the basics of football? To have a corner and get hit like that on the counter is such a rookie experience. lol

Re: Manchester United - News, Developments & Season
You are now seeing the light bit by bit
Remember i said to you that the Old Trafford masses are restless, and it wasn't just about a loss to Young Boys, but issues like the one you now mention.
Some nice challenging do or die fixtures after the international break,
Re: Manchester United - News, Developments & Season
The glazers are content on selling millions of Ronaldo shirts, as far as Ole finishes in top 4, his job is secure, they will only act if the players stop playing for him or the fans go on a rampage at old trafford due to poor results
So angry Nigeria got kicked out of the world cup once again, i nearly told my wife that i caught my girlfriend with another man today!

Re: Manchester United - News, Developments & Season
That is a really tough run of fixtures. If it ends with Man Utd dropping into the Europa League, Ole’s head will be on the block.
The parallels with last season are troubling…

The board still firmly believes in Ole to turn things around, this according to Romano on the video below.
Let us see what the situation will be like after that tough run of fixtures

Re: Manchester United - News, Developments & Season
My guy, he's a free bird, he can go wherever he wants. Most top echelon teams can afford to pay him significant wages within reason considering they aren't paying Barca a dime. Yes PSG can pay more but he can get a substantial wage from a host of teams...if he so desired.

Re: Manchester United - News, Developments & Season
Varane and SLab-Head injured and out for the Leicester game this weekend (at least - probably longer). Good chance for Bailly to show what he can do. My line-up would be:'
DDG (how does Unai Simon play for Spain ahead of him?! )
AWB-Bailly-Lindelof-Shaw
Pogba-McTominay-Fred
Greenwood-Cavani-Sancho
Subs: Henderson, Dalot, Jones, Telles, Matic, Lingard, Bruno, Ronaldo, Martial
Rationale: after an international week and with tough EPL and CL games coming up (including Liverpool!), an away game against Leicester (with the first choice two CDs out injured) is not the time to start players who do not press (Ronaldo). The team will need legs and runners (Fred and McTominay) as well as forwards who will harass the Leicester defenders and defend from the front (Cavani). I would rest Bruno and Ronaldo until the Atalanta and Liverpool games where they are bound to start. They can come on as subs against Leicester for the last 30 minutes - when spaces open up, defences tire, and they can be more effective.
