They are not winning any silverware with Ole in charge. Remember his "winning trophies are managers ego thing" quote.

Disappointed with Liverpool. They stopped. 

[Pizy 18,897]

Think the best case for us opposition fans if Ole goes is that they stupidly appoint Zidane. Don’t think he would get this team to play much better than Ole has. 
 

Let’s hope they do that. Conte would whip their asses into shape and make a monster of them after a window or two to sort their midfield out.

Gotta applaud Gary Neville for mentioning all the problems at United that the manager should be sorting out but stopping short of criticizing Solskjaer.

Yeah utd must be lobbying him with brown paper envelopes because hes gone completely pro utd from being a very good pundit who was balanced and fair.

Sancho must be fucked off. Arrived with all that fuss, just to be shoved out by Ronaldo. Who isnt a rapist btw, before anyone says he is. He was found not guilty.

Sancho would thrive under Tuchel

So, United did not concede with 10 men against Liverpool. That's something, right? Ole in!

I would say it is a 75% chance he is sacked

Conte won't last young at United he is two year manager before it all goes wrong usually with him falling out with everyone.

Their biggest problem is AFCON. 

I have a feeling they will still creep through those matches unscathed.

We're really up against a wall against the likes of these City & Liverpool teams.

It’s like the players are doing everything they can to get him sacked. Classy

Wouldn't be surprised if Ronaldo was behind this.,

Glad that they stopped.

The GD advantage that we had over them has been fucked enough.

I don´t think it will matter though. We have a nice team, but we probably won´t be competing for the title. City and Liverpool are still ahead of us (technique-wise they are are on another level) and I doubt we are able to keep their pace over the course of 38 games. That being said we will secure a comfortable and good third place, which is not a shame given the quality of our opponents. We have a better chance in the cup competitions.

Yeah, that's true. Looking at their attacking quality we are still short. We don't have a single individual player of the likes of Salah or KDB.

The only department where I could say we can compete is in defense. But not sure if that's enough to challenge these guys for the long haul. Having said that, we have done as well as we could have in the opening fixtures.

we HAVE to upgrade our wingers

we only have ONE pure winger on the entire squad

if Pulisic (the one) continues to be injured all the time we needs to bin his ass

Ziyech is meh AF and is more of an AMF (and not good enough there either) that is where he excelled at Ajax in the donkey farmer league

CHO is not consistent and is more of a wingback now in my mind

 

we HAVE to be looking at

Chiesa

Oyarzabal

a step down

Hirving Lozano

 

 

[Laylabelle 9,534]

I still think we'll compete but think Liverpool will edge it..Long way to go and all but they don't see to slow down. Saying that their problem is defence cant always outscore the other lot..hopefully

[Mário César 1,252]

the good thing is that salah will go to CAN. Maybe we can benefit from that
