If he wasn't a United legend and someone else was in charge there would of been holy fuck played by now.

'Clueless' feels like a kind description of Solskjaer. He just looks out of his depth and doesn't have an idea of what kind of identity he wants his Man United side to be. They are defensively OK but going forward, they look so clueless. Everything seems to be just throwing crosses in and hope the ball goes into the net. Nothing clever, exciting, creative about their attacking play. It feels like he's just throwing 11 players out there, hoping they can make something happen and he's just making things up as it goes along, especially in his interviews, pressers etc.

Basically a Poundland Chelsea 10/11 and 17/18.

I don't know United problem is Ole as coach but whoever in charge of the squad is a bit crazy. I think they listen to the media and fans too much. 

They believe this team need cleansing from deadweight. So Lukaku, Fellaini, Sanchez, Smalling and Herrera are gone. Now if pogba is injured they are pretty much a midtable team. One creator in whole team is mind-boggling. Oh you can include Luke shaw but he is pretty much injured all the time. 

With Lukaku and fellaini, at least they have a more direct route if require. Now they can only create from transition.

Yeah, it's not only on Ole. I really think West Ham, Leicester and some others have better squad than Utd. Expecially with all the injuries.

Nahh they need to support Ole and Poch.....they must be there for them and let them stay......so that we can utterly decimate them when they come visiting.

Maybe we're deliberately letting United stuff us so Oles job security is back to safe as houses again?

Nahh fuck that, once they put their feet on SB their asses are ours.

In other news, a Leicester player got loads of racist abuse on social media after fouling a Liverpool player, let's see if it gets the same media headlines as us and Man utd got. 

Have Liverpool condemned it yet? The reports I read showed Klopp condemning Choudhury for injuring Salah, but I haven't seen any condemnation of the racial abuse. Media darlings is what they are.....I so hate the Eng media, biased and dirty to the bone.

I believe he is part of the problem because he must have believe with the cleansing. 

We can laugh at united but if they keep out spending everyone eventually they will come good.

That depends on who United buy. Not all of Solskjaer's targets are/were inspiring and he seems to be mainly targeting English players. One of them was Sean Longstaff!
