Short termism

I'd like to talk about United's search for a new manager

First off, credit to Ole for stepping in at short notice and giving the team a new lease of life, my personal view though is we should still be looking to bring in someone like Poch in summer if at all possible. The man has proved how he can build a very good team who play good football on a much smaller budget than those around him, surely with a larger budget he could improve even more, and no disrespect to Ole but he wasn't been linked with many top jobs before United had to cut Jose free, I'm not suggesting recent results are just a case of new manager bounce but more the type of results a squad like ours should be capable of when players are given a bit of belief and freedom to express themselves instead of being stifled creatively.

If Ole manages top 4 this season considering the uphill task left him by face-ache, it will be a solid achievement but one I fear might take the boards eye off the ball, I hope this time they are taking a long think before appointing the new man.
Turn the clock back a month or so ago when people were shouting for Jose's head and how many of you would have suggested the manager of norways 2nd team to be our next boss?
There's no guarantee's with Poch of course but to me would be a sensible appointment, anyway, keep up the good work Ole it's already like night and day compared to the last fella

Over to you

Hafijur Ali I'm guessing

Hafi was the outsider going into the competition. You honesty don't think that statman Haf didn't back himself heavily at the bookies and do the old switcheroo?

Slightly off topic but Steve Bruce has just been announced manager of Sheff Wed, that's his 10th job in management in 20 yrs

Sigh. Guess we will have to settle for Poch then.

Elvis to be fair I expected to win. I got the most talent of the players going there as my potential at best is higher than the rest so I took it easy and even crashed and won lol. Even people like Darren Cox thought I was going to win lol.

It’s amazing how the same ones who fail time and time again keep getting jobs. Not that Bruce is a serial failer, but the same names just keep getting regurgitated.
