Jose was also sacked mostly because of his incredible toxicity

Surely having Alex Ferguson constantly lingering over you, pulling faces on TV can't help any managers chances of success.

Ferguson is probably one of the main reasons Ole got and still has that job

Every team goes through patches of bad form and ole took them to 2nd last year. Ole must stay

I still maintain that singning Ronaldo is the biggest mistake he ever made, and it was loving obvious at the Liverpool game. He just doesn't work at all and the team is so much better and more coherent with Cavani up top.

I don't disagree with what either of you are saying but he's also scored six goals in nine matches including two CL winners so he is kind of keeping Ole in the job.

I think the team would have done better without him though. Someone would have stepped up and scored goals, and the team would have conceded fewer with a front line that works as a cohesive unit out of possession. CyberPingu posted:It seemed like a PR move and a "Holy poo poo this guy is available we can't pass him up" rather than thinking if he actually fits into their system It was 100% a PR move, but in the "we can't let City have him" kind of way. Which is loving funny if you're a City fan I guess. The noise from various reputable journalists was that he had been shopped around for several months and Man Utd had shown zero interest until it looked like he was going to Man City.

They’re doing the terrible kind of hoarding of players where they spunk all the money on the flavour of the month with no thought about the wider team or proper plans to develop them long term. See also Sancho. It’s a criminal waste of some potentially great players.

They have such a stacked midfield they probably could have coped with a player up top not pressing at all, and one thing they miss in a lot of games is someone clinical to get on the end of De Bruyne's passes and score.

Managers being unable to accommodate pure strikers who do nothing but score a gently caress ton of goals is one of the dumbest trends of modern football.

According to Zlatan, Pep doesn't "do" confrontations. You just find yourself frozen out and on the bench and he avoids talking to you. But regardless, everyone is right in that combining Guardiola and C. Ronaldo would not work.

It's telling how weak Ole's position is and how little he's respected by the players that Eric loving Bailly is telling him off in front of the others in the changing room.

Translation: let Ole take the blame for losing the next three matches so the new manager can start against Watford. edit: they might beat Tottenham

See also Sancho. At some point there needs to be a Truth and Reconciliation Commission about just how many young English players careers were ruined by being hoarded by top 4 clubs for their prime years. I don't particularly feel sorry for, say, Scott Sinclair because he presumably made mad stacks in the 8 years he spent bench-warming at Chelsea and Man City but there's probably a pretty good England starting XI to be made of players with more U21 caps than first team appearances at their CL-qualifying clubs.

Bailly is right and one of Ole's major flaws, of which there are many, is that he gave Maguire the armband in the first place and now feels obligated to play him regardless of form or fitness.
