Jose sacked

😂😂 Happy, by the time Fergie was spouting that sort of nonsense about Jones he had already thought it a ‘great’ idea to replace Ronaldo with Valencia and Tevez with Michael Owen whilst throwing absolute fucking spanners like Obertan and Bebe into the mix. Do you not detect any sort of a dogshite similarity here?!.
Either way, just because he said it doesn’t mean you had to be that gullible to believe it. Millions of us around the world who actually watched him for ourselves and then made our own judgement took those comments for exactly what they were, ie complete and utter bullshit!.

Hahaha Blacky,do you think he got it now? I doubt it.
Watch out for his uncle cavalry though,its been awfully quiet on the western front lately.

Now that Ole is interim manager, we will now all be itching to know who will be the permanent manager. Assuming that Ole doesn’t get it.

Imagine next summer Wenger came in, won a few league titles and a CL, then called Jose a specialist in failure.

Of course the way contract pay outs are managed these days, we are unlikely to get JMs side of the story for some time, save for odd nuggets from sources here and there. While his departure was both inevitable and necessary, it doesnt mask some horrible truths that still pertain:
– Woodward has completely overstepped the boundaries of CEO by purporting to be head Coach/Chief scout in “identifying” what players should be bought, irrespective of what thr manager thinks
– Woodwards management of player contracts including the retention of crocks and serial underperformers, has spannef the last 10 years and 4 different managers
– Woodwards failure to introduce a cohesive technical strategy and structure on the footballing side has resulted in significant compensation pay outs to 3 managrrs, huge salaries and fees paid out on players who have not got either the quality or character to play for this club, and out regression from top 4 certainties to top 6 wanbabes

@happyhurling – Its not easy for aspiring young managers when their first jobs are with struggling clubs. How would Jose have done managing a relegation threatened small club? He would not have been able to buy top players would he. He’d have to use his tactical nous and man management skills to get the best out of poor-average players. And we know he hasn’t had much success doing that here. But I guess his park the bus and hoof it up to Fellaini tactic would suit relegation strugglers to a tee.

Here you are knocking Ole but if he were appointed permanent manager you’d flip in a heartbeat to sing his praises. A key reason Ole was able to make such an impact from the bench was because while on the bench he studied the other teams moves and weaknesses.

You knock other teams for having a high turnover of players but that is exactly what is required. You sign somebody and if he doesn’t look like making it you get rid and replace asap. Your way is the job-for-life way where players are given chance after chance and end up spending the almost a decade at the club till you lose “patience” and see the light.

If Ole made top4 with this lot he stands every chance of being offered the position permanently. In fact, it would not surprise me if that’s the deal.

Pleased Ole been given the chance (would have preferred Blanc) and he has an easy run of fixtures to make until end of Feb to turn things around.

Would like to see what Pogba & Sanchez do differently now he’s gone. I want to see Pogba busting a gut to make things happen.

It will be interesting to see how our formation and line up are in a few weeks time.

I am ecstatic at the news of Ole’s appointment. He is the sort of manager I have been advocating but never realistically expected to get. I said I wanted a young tracksuit manager who hasn’t managed a big club, preferably ex-United, a legend and a Brit. I’ll give Ole a pass on the last one given how long he lived in England and he speaks perfect English even with a Manc accent !!!

And its the perfect appointment at a perfect time. As caretaker if it doesn’t work out no problem, no loss of reputation and no serious damage to the club as we’re not in the running for anything. The time is good because there’s plenty of time to see what he can do and to rescue our honour and even make top 4 or a good cup run.

He’s attack minded being a striker and shares the United philosophy of pacy attacking football. He is widely accredited as being tactically astute. His legend status should give him some slack from the fans and he’s a likeable bloke so the press will do the same. The players will find it hard not to respect him, his medals, his popularity. He came young, sat on the bench for years, played second fiddle and made it to become one of the most loved players in history. He’s been there, done it and the T-shirts have his name on them!

He’s a humble man who never had a clothing line (I have a clothes line, am I almost a star). I don’t think he would be too proud to ask Fergie for advice, so I’m sure we get a bit of Fergie wisdom into the bargain.

The only possible negative is I would prefer somebody who wield the hairdryer or chin a player like a Keane, Cantona or Neville but I think the modern players may not respond to that as they did in bygone years.

As for Phelan, I’m not a fan of his but its a good choice. He knows the club, the methods that worked and has worked with Ole. He’s enough of a Yes man to let Ole be the boss and do as he’s told. Wouldn’t surprise me if he’s a backchannel to Fergie.

I wish him well and feel there is a good chance of him succeeding and getting the job on permanent basis. The Glazers will be well happy since it means no need to spend in January, no battles with JM over funds or complaining to the press. And they can milk the sponsors with photos of Ole scoring the winner and fans cheering O-LE, O-LE, O-LE. Jeez the sale of merchandise with Ole name and face on it is going to make Ed smile.

@happyhurling – How that for negativity and being a miserable bastard?
