Still buzzing, think we saw a little what Ole is trying to do. As for signings, here's what he said about them and how he looks at it.
Solskjær: "Absolutely top class. We know why we signed these three players [James, Wan-Bissaka, Maguire]. They fit perfectly into the way I want to play football, how the club wants to play football — they're humble lads, hard-working." #mulive [mu]
To me, this is the most important thing. Getting players who want to play for us. I believe he'll try and do this in all his signings.
UWW hope you are good.
OLE on signings

Of course I’m good was a great win but Ole is still not good enough and it’s the teams below us that we must beat. We can’t break down teams.
-------------------------
Well yes, if we could break teams down we would probably be sitting 2nd or 3rd in the league, and Ole would have us punching significantly above our weight relative to the quality of our squad.
As it is we are about par. Or above actually - you in particular have spent months telling us this is a mid-table squad, and Ole has it sitting in 5th halfway through the season.
As I've said to you all along, you talk a lot of shīt about long-term strategy and vision but dont have the bollox to see it through. Spoiled rotten.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Not sure about punching above your weight. Martial and Rashford are quality forwards. Maguire, whilst not an 80 million defender is a proven top end prem defender. De Gea, AWB, Shaw, Lindelof McTom are all top 4 players. You squad should definitely be competing for CL places.

Good spin. You willing to trade players?

When does Pogba come back?
Missing his goals and assists in midfield, if he comes back soon i'm confident we'll start beating the teams that set up with a low block

I do think he could be the difference maker in those games tbh. I hope he comes back fighting fit in the next couple of weeks and gives it his all

Only going by what UWW has been telling us this whole season.
Wouldn't agree this is a top 4 squad though. I think its probably 5th or 6th best in the league.

At the start of the year when Ole was on his run plenty were saying man for man Utd had a better squad than Liverpool including Rio.
Obviously that's ridiculous but the mental gymnastics deployed on here to defend Ole, although admirable, is showing to be a bit over the top.

I think you miss the point.
It seems to be the same people on here (UWW) who think we have a mid-table squad that also think Ole should be fired for where he has us now. It makes no sense whatsoever.
As for our squad now - it is not better than Liverpool's, City's, Spurs' and probably Leicester and Chelsea's. Dont think it's a stretch at all to say 5th or 6th is about par.

100% Robbing. It's ridiculous that we'd consider any of our players to not be streets above your team who keep winning ever week through sheer luck imo

6th imo, I think Chelsea just shade it on depth.
I think January could be interesting this year and it would surprise me if Utd, Spurs, Chelsea and Liverpool all made a signing.

Really? Can't say I recall anyone on here suggesting that.
