Mitch Connor wrote: » I'd prefer him to stay silent on it, after being sacked. The state of the United squad is inexcusable given the money he has spent and the authority he has had. Make no mistake, this is his United squad. This is the squad he wanted/created and his inability to get them playing football should have cost him his job 2 months ago. Woodward, at this stage, has as much to answer for. LVG is his problem to fix and he just sits on his hands (while City appoint the best manager in football).

Young players have not developed better than Moyes and certainly nowhere near as well as Fergie. His "clear-out" has been a negative no matter what way people try to swing it. So after 18 months what has he achieved ?
Mitch Connor wrote: » Also - would have much prefered to see Fosu-Mensah or Williams in the squad instead of Poole - both far better players. Roole was ran around vs City U21s last game (though playing DM). He is hardly ready for U21 football, never mind senior football. Williams and Fosu-Mensah are already putting in dominating performances at U21. I think we are playing City at U18 level today and have U21 and U18 games on Saturday too - but if Poole can be taken out of those squads, why not Fosu-Mensah or Williams. Swapping Poole for either player would be better for United and for the players too, imo.

He did promote many young players, most recently CBJ who looked good enough to play at top level. For me his trust of young players is big positive in his reign and apart from that can't think of any.
