Ole must deliver

Yes we know this and its has been said hundreds of times by most posters on here.

If Ole is backed he must deliver. Nobody is disagreeing with you.

Maybe you thought we had all forgotten?

His new nickname is il Postino

We still need a DM. It's vital in accommodating our creative players and changing how we play.

A huge club like ours can’t wait around till all 11 of our starting players are world class. With what we’ve assembled so far we should at least be looking at 85+ points and a trophy.

They call him Yodel.

He rarely delivers.

Oh. So... if they dont get a new DM in, has Ole been adequately backed. Or not?

I dont care how many points United get next season. If we finish in the top 2 and a trophy and even the top 1 maybe, that's what i will judge him on

A title challenge and a decent CL run won’t be good enough for most on the United board, I’d wager

I don’t think a single person on here would be disappointed if in say, April we were still in the title race and in the CL. That would be decent.

But what come May if we then finish 2nd and no CL ?

Yes, we have a good enough squad to complete. But if Pogba stays, how will we get him and Bruno into the starting lineup without a top DM behind them? We can't play Pogba on the left like last season.

Tbh I think those people would have died of shock if that happened.

If we were well in the title race and CL in April and we didn't win either some people would say we'd have choked!

Perhaps the signing of Sancho solves that indirectly.

I will be. I know how we are going to play.

What we need most is for Bruno to get his form back, I won't have any qualms then.

No manager gets everything they want. They have to prioritise—and DM is a priority position.

With Sancho and Varane (seemingly) signed we can push up more as a team perhaps now and we'll have a better balance it seems. Perhaps, in that case, Pogba could work in the 2 most games. Even SAF would bring in the likes of Fletcher, Park etc to bolster the midfield in the big games.

Strengthening in midfield will be important for various reasons.

I just hope we'll see some improvement in the quality and consistency of our performances this season. If that happens we should come pretty close to winning the two biggest competitions. Even if we fall a bit short and don't win anything else it will still have been a good season.

Winning a domestic cup competition would be nice but it's not where a Manchester United manager should be judged as it's not necessarily a sign of progress as we've seen many times with Arsenal over recent years.

With the players we've added so far and the new coaches we've added, we've given ourselves a decent platform to improve on last season but the midfield really needs addressing.

Oh Robb stop wumming. If we only challenged for the title next season, even until the last day, you'd say Ole has to go. Please stop.

Just saw somewhere Varane has been to 14 finals and won all 14... Crazy. Instilling that winning mentality will be paramount

How would you strengthen TRS? Two CMs who compliment each other (and sell Pogba) or one DM to play alongside Pogba? Or something else?

To be fair we don't lose many with McFred in the middle but we draw quite a lot. An upgrade on what those two provide, with better quality on the ball, would be ideal IMO.

You telling someone to stop wumming is like COVID telling someone to stop infecting 🤌
