Thread: Manchester Utd

OLEGEND

"The fans are a big part of this club. The singing section there kept the players going with their belief. That is what you do at Manchester United on a Champions League night. This corner of the stadium here are the best in the world. There is a bit of time when you are down as a supporter but you keep going.
"I thought we played well first half too. Two chances, two goals. It had to stop if we are to survive. We have a habit of doing this at this club. I thought we played well and they scored a goal out of nothing and then another set-piece. But they never stopped believing and kept going.
"Don't disrespect the players. They play for Manchester United and they know they are the luckiest men in the world. Tonight they are the luckiest men in the world because they get to play for Manchester United. That is what so many millions of boys and girls want to do."

Unfortuantely Mrs since Taksin is a Man City fan, halitosis, 47 with retreads, 67kg and Bandy legged, but great personality when not on the poker or meth.

My mate took his youngest to the game last night (what a game to start off with!), and we were chatting in our little Whatsapp group about Ole and the stick he's had over the years. He snapped a little last night at the questions from the press after the game, but who can fucking blame him? Yes, this run could be the end for him because we didn't look any closer to finding a solution to our problems, but the LEGEND has been gracious throughout his tenure - despite the constant shit from the press, which has been nothing short of a witch-hunt in some quarters - and has made us exciting to watch while improving us every year. Never let that be forgotten; if someone does come in, they come in to work with a very good squad.

Seeing that ground bounce again last night and the players fighting like fuck for him is what we're about. UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNITED!

^^ Can’t believe that’s your take away from the game. What about the first half when nobody looked like they could give a flying fcuk?

Utd at 33-1 on Paddy looks good value

According to the Italian press, Pogba wants to stay.

Pogba, messaggio allo United: "Voglio restare a Manchester"

Despite our obvious flaws, there's a good atmosphere at the club between the fans and players at the moment. The vendetta against Ole since day one from the media seems to have brought us together.

The Marble is a CAMRA pub and a decent pub for the location; apparently, they even do cheeseboards now! Cheeseboards in Collyhurst! Who would have thought that possible 20 years ago?

Was it the Salford Arms near Salford station?

My takeaway from the game, which I'm watching again now, funnily enough, is that we were once again undone by terrible defending in the first half, but we could have been ahead at HT if we'd put our chances away. Clearly we were low on confidence, and we played poorly, but it wasn't like players didn't care as evidenced by the fightback.

However, it beggars belief that we employ a set-piece coach when we allowed their centre back to score from 4 yards out, virtually unchallenged. Another thing which was highlighted by Scholes on BT was the distance between McTominay and Fred and Fernandes. If we start like that on Sunday, and make similar stupid mistakes (like we did at Leicester), we'll be dead in the water with no coming back.

For all the criticism of Solskjaer, a lot of the mistakes are things you're told not to do when you're playing schoolboy football. Basic fucking stuff like not pissing about on the edge of your box (Maguire at Leicester), tracking your man (Vardy), conceding the foul to stop danger (Everton).

Of course, I'm concerned about Solskjaer - we all are - but it would help our cause a great deal if world class players stopped playing like plant pots.

He's available on a free from January. Despite his faults, and he's Marmite among United fans, he's a 100 million player and great for marketing. They're saving that straight off the bat for 3/400k a week.

Solskjaer had to actually shout at them to go long on Saturday when Leicester were pressing us as we tried to play out from the back. I mean, Cy, for fucks sake, surely the players can make this decision themselves? Likewise Fred not taking out his man against Everton when they broke. Stunningly naive and Ronaldo was pointing this out when they scored. Guardiola's teams wouldn't make these mistakes (and maybe that points a finger at Solskjaer, but these are experienced internationals we're talking about here).

I've just said I have my concerns about him and also above again. That doesn't mean the players have shouldn't bear responsibility though, but of course we want Ole to do well. He's a hero at OT.

You think the average player, even though its the one thing they are good at, has the IQ to do more than appreciate their own muscle memory - they are for the most part thick as pig shite. I think they should all get a percentage of their weekly wage tied to on field performance rather than getting overpaid to turn up and mince around the turf.

You've totally undermined your own defence of him there.

Did my job for me.

This doesn't happen with Klopp, Guardiola, Tuchel or even Hodgson.

The players go through rigorous training so that they know what to do in many different situations.

They are drilled in what to do.

It takes time but, as the likes of Arteta and Potter have shown, in time (less than the time OGS has been in the job) the results are clear.

He can be as shit as he wants and everyone blames Ole. Perfect innit.
