I browsed that last night. An awful lot of people seem to think Lindelof isn’t a problem. To be fair he doesn't pick himself. Well he choose to become a professional footballer so to hell with him. |

Oh and on ole's comments about not being in the title race, didnt he say only a few weeks back that the players should dare to dream!! Flip flop.....maybe the penny has dropped that his centre halves and keeper are soft as shit and he'll win fuck all with them I actually don’t mind Ole saying this, it’s at least the truth. But if he had the guts to do so, he would tell De Gea and Lindelof they’ll never see the starting 11 again. He will ride the sinking ship with Maguire because that is his call and “marquee” CB signing but at least take the captains armband off the fucking oaf and give it to Bruno. |

Is there anyone here that wouldn't swap our manager for Everton's? What a shocking state of affairs. We outplayed them three times this season already. Why would we want to swap managers with them? Shh...don’t let a few facts get in the way of a good witch hunt. |

Bruno is surely smart enough to see the writing on the wall here. He could go to any club he wants. He’s too much of a gentleman to do a Pogba, but his agent should be having a quiet word with Real Madrid. And who could blame him if he did want to leave? I get your point, but first, I'd much rather he light a fire up the arse of the club and say things need to change fast or he's not sticking around. And by things changing fast I mean signing an actual central defence and sorting out the goalkeeping problem (whether that's via Hendo or someone else). The frustrating thing is we're not THAT far off in the forward and midfield departments, despite the shambolic way our club is being run. Full backs have come a long way as well. It's our League 1 level CBs and goalkeeping that's ruining all the good work up front. The optimist in me chooses to believe Bruno's the type of character that would relish the opportunity to become an iconic player who transformed the fortunes of a club like Manchester United, rather than just another star at a Madrid or Bayern. But yeah, if we shit the bed in the summer transfer window as well and start next season with the same CBs, nobody could blame him for saying 'fuck this, I'm out'. |

Some of our forward play last night was superb. If you score 3 goals at home you should really be winning that bloody game. |

Yeah that is the real shame. All we need at this point is a solid defence. Not a world class defence. Just one that doesn't give away easy goals. And while signing another centre back would help you still need some organization of the defence. And as Ole isn't capable of the job then he needs to bring in a top drawer assistant manager.

Carlo has the handicap of managing a significantly smaller club than Ole. He's clearly one of the best managers of the past 20 years, and his record (and everything I see from both men) suggests he'd be a significant upgrade. |

I am suggesting that so far this season, Ole has out managed Carlo, Klopp, Jose, Nuno and every other flavour of the month being suggested as our saviour in waiting. |

That was the position these players failed to convert. But yeah, let’s crucify the manager. |

I don’t want to start a fight and I’m not trying to put words in your mouth but what is your point? He beat Klopp in an FA Cup tie and that means what exactly? Wilder outcoached Ole a week or two ago, does that mean something? You take a manager’s body of work as a whole, not a one off result. His style of play, his ability to get a team playing in that style, to get players improving. |

It’s not guts but a small club manager mentality. Not sure what kind of message it sends to the players either. |

It's ridiculous to even compare ole.to any manager of any quality in this league, he's quite clearly not a good manager, hypothetically ole gets sacked come the summer, what prem team is giving him a job? What top European team is giving him a job?

Only Sheffield United (10) and Leeds (11) have conceded more from set pieces than our 9 in the league this season.
