Since the Roma 6-2 game...

Won 6

Drawn 2

Lost 7

There needs to be a meeting of the board in the morning. The question should be:

1) Is this squad good enough to win the league ? Yes

2) Do the manager and coaching ticket have the skills, knowledge and game plan to win to win the league with this team? No

3) What manager is available who can get the best out of this team?

As good and all as he had done, Ole has built a title winning team. Although lack of a philosophy and setting teams up to not lose rather than to win is something we would not let another manager get away with.

The only philosophy I can see his give the ball to Bruno he might play one of the fast fellas in.....

You can talk about lack of a DM all you want but in reality Donny, Sancho and Telles cost well over 120 Million quid to warm the bench while Pogba plays as a central wingfeilder ?????????? Three attack minded players with goals and assists with previous clubs left warming the bench while Fred still plays every week?

Who do people think should come in?

Conte probably the best available coach but our squad seems entirely unsuited to his preferred playing style.

I’m Ole Out. I can’t even read his pre match waffle anymore and I certainly can’t listen to him being interviewed after these types of defeats. He has no excuses left. This is a team with experienced world class talent such as Ronaldo, Bruno, Pogba, Cavani, Varane, Maguire, De Gea. Supplemented with Sancho, Greenwood, Rashford, Van De Beek, Shaw. And we’re always reduced to the same level of the opposition we face.

Just get him out. I’m a Poch fan but he won’t leave PSG so abruptly. Conte….. not sure he’d suit us but you never know. Zidane is a gamble bizarrely for a few reasons. Rodgers would be great but the Liverpool connection rules that out.

Any other ideas?

My Ole out position has never exactly been given much reason to change for the positive, and today was another day it became more hardened.

When will this **** end? Who knows. Its so disappointing, looking at the talent in that squad that will be completely wasted.

Ronaldo is our best hope of getting him out.

The Glazers will be thinking "we're in the top 4, what's the problem?"

Ronnie needs to use his influence to get him out.

The club will never recover from the embarrassment of putting Ronaldo in the Europa League.

We're not taking Liverpool's rejects lads.

I wouldn't care about that if he was the right manager and available. But he likely isn't.

He's obviously playing him to try and get him to sign. Otherwise he may have been dropped for some games for better balance in the side.

Honestly, my view is that I would like to think there is a competent leadership at United that could identify the best man for the job and go get him, regardless of nonsense like he worked for club X, so we can never hire him. If Rodgers was hired and led the team to a title, the whole hangup about him being sacked by a rival would quickly disappear.

But this is all fairly irrelevant - Rodgers isn't the right coach, for reasons already pointed out. He isn't available. And either way, there is no competent leadership at United to identify the best man for the job. Assuming Ole is sacked, his replacement will be selected by the same guys who hired Ole. That is the grim reality.

That's it for me get the lad put.

However, the amount of times Greenwood took the shot on when he should have passed was criminal. He had a great opportunity to slide Ronnie in around the back at the end but didn't.

Bruno on the people, dear God Maguire was lucky once with DeGea pass and 2nd when he flattened maginn
