[@chriswood753]

Ronaldo coming back killed Ole off. Bruno creating for Greenwood, Rashford and Cavani was great. Cavani had work rate off the ball as well. Rashford and Greenwood followed Cavani with the same work rate off the ball. The whole system changed just for Ronaldo to score with zero work rate off the ball. Yeah he scored 24 goals but the goal difference was 0. The year before it was +25. A big difference.

[@Elezium]

I also think Cavani was more constructive when it came to talking to the other players too...there was 1 game (can't recall atm who we played) when Greenwood took a touch then crossed the ball and Cavani didn't get on the end of it. You then saw Cavani speak to Greenwood and gesture "just cross it 1st time for me", which Greenwood did later in the game and boom, Cavani scored. Whereas Ronaldo would just shout at them. Ronaldo coming and taking the 7 is why Cavani fucked it off his last season, Ole promised him the 7 and that no more strikers would be bought that window, then Ronaldo is acquired and demands the 7.

If Mourinho took over United right after Sir Alex left, things would be different today. United was a huge catch for Moyes and he wasn’t ready to take the club forward because he had no experience with elite club coaching.

[@MrAurang]

[@Matt-JKD]

Disagree. I don’t think Mourinho could have run the club like AF did. AF was a workaholic and the club was built around him. The club didn’t then restructure in prep for his retirement. No manager would have succeeded after AF, not even Pep, because the club was a mess then and still is (although finally now being improved by Ineos). Not saying Moyes was the right choice - more that there was no right choice.

[@EponaDreams-AmbientDreamscapes]

When Fergie introduced Moyes to the crowd. I forget the game, but I knew then he was stuffed. He looked like a school boy being pushed forward by the head master. If Fergie's shadow wasn't over him he might have done better. It was a suicide move for Moyes, he should have timed it better.

You clowns are hilarious. Ineos are no different than the Glazers. They are simply kicking the can down the road. You were ass all season but winning that game at the end of the season filled your head with nonsense. ETH stinks.

Coming second is a good achievement but Utd are supposed to be challenging for the league. Although Ole did well in the league on paper, the reality is that they never looked like making progress to winning the league and beating City

[@gust2036]

One of Ole's biggest pitfall is player favoritism...example De Gea and Maguire made blunders after blunders but he kept starting them. I mean, both players ofc need game time to back on track, but he didn't bench them once, it was frustrating for fans to see. Should've given those players a bit of break. Another thing is he was dictated by management and SAF, like the Ronaldo deal. Ole obviously didn't want Ronaldo, but he was forced to accept. Ronaldo is a great player, but not suitable for the team at that moment Other than that, I actually like United when Ole was in charge. Their performance was energetic, very attractive. Even frickn Pogba was on good form in many games. Whenever we face City or Liverpool I always have confidence that we can win.

He started the rot and United hierarchy are to blame.

[@manumental86]

​@@frankford1115 That title winning squad was one on it's last legs. Giggs,Vidic,Carrick, Ferdinand and Evra were in the twilight of their playing careers at that point. We had sub par players like Alexander Butner,Tom Cleverly and others who weren't at the level we needed them to be. Moyes was also severely let down by the incompetence of Ed Woodward in the transfer market buying one player in the summer window(Paying about £27,000,000 for Fellaini,when he could've signed him a few days earlier for cheaper.) The fact is he was hamstrung from the start.

[@yourface07]

I was sick to death of chopping managers and their philosophies every 2-3 year. When Ole was on the chopping block, I really wanted us to just firm it for another year. We needed (still need tbf) to just ride the wave, no matter how rough. I’m glad EtH has been given backing because another sacking, another transition would have pissed me off to the point of no return

[@MikeArdington]

The dressing room can get a manager the sack, if the players stick together a manager has no chance in this day and age

[@lwandomadikizela2213]

Not winning the Europa League title was the beginning of the end for Ole tbh. I've always believed had he won it the narrative on him would be different. Failing to address the midfield and his reliance on McFred, Maguire, Lindelof, Wan-Bissaka, Shaw, Rashford and Bruno Fernandes was killing him and failure to fully utilize the squad. Signing Ronaldo was unnecessary and further accelerated his downfall and it didn't help Ole had Carrick, Phelan and McKenna who was his coaching staff. His final nail came in the Watford game when we got smashed. Ole is still a club legend no matter what but he needs to improve in his in game management and tactical skills to manage Manchester United once again.

They’ve tried everything. Employed veteran champions league and domestic winning managers, Brought back club legends, employed potential greats. They have spent millions and stayed the same. Total mess. I think ten hag needs one more season after winning trophy’s but he’s going to have to give the first team a clear out then he will have to spend millions bringing in new faces but will the team click? Can’t see him being there end of next season and if they bring someone else in and the manager list they have what can they do any better then what ten hag has already done? You need a big personality to change that club. Like what Klopp did at Liverpool. Liverpool were in a similar position . Klopp changed all that.

For me the biggest mistake was getting rid of Ole when they did, he should have gone to the end of the season, the half season under Rangnick was a disaster from almost every aspect. He was definitely the wrong man at the wrong time.

[@petrsvoboda1895]

More like right man at the wrong club. Good coach (as seen everywhere else he's been) and a great football mind (as ETH himself basically said). He was hung out to try at the biggest football club in the world with people above who knew nothing about it (Woodward, Murtough, Arnold, Judge, Glazers, ...). To be fair, same can be said for Ole - I don't think he was a good manager (considering he didn't want a holding 6 and kept playing a pivot of McFred) but he would've done more with a right structure above (considering they'd let him become a manager in the first place).

Ole needed someone to get tough with him and tell him that tactics , personnel but especially the culture needed a change, and out of McKenna and Carrick, mick was the only one with the experience to really do that. They coddled that group and we’ve been paying for it ever since, and it’s stifled ETH tremendously to this day.
