Leyqute: So you mean when we won the Carling cup and Europa league and lost the final of the FA cup to Chelsea we weren’t moving in the right direction? ![]() Ole hasn’t done half of what Mou did for us (as a manager), so how is Ole moving in the direction and Mou wasn’t? In Mou first full season with us, we finished 6th with 69pts and won the Carling cup and the Europa League. In Ole first full season (apart from the first 6 month on the job) we finish 3rd with 66 points and lost 3 semi final (Carling cup, Europa League and FA cup). Using point haul, it can be argued logically that Mou first full season in the league where we finished 6th was better than Ole 3rd point wise. The following season we finished 2nd with 81 points and lost the FA cup final to Chelsea. Pray tell wasn’t that progress and moving in the right direction enough? My own agenda here is simple, if we blame Mou team for their drab and uninspiring football even with the supposed deadwood he had, there’s nothing that will absolve Ole and blaming the players for Ole incompetence wont be tolerated. ![]() What is good for the goose is good for the gander. Peace. 10 Likes |

larride: So 6th is better than 3rd? LOOL. Mourinho didn't win any major trophy. How many people were boasting of those trophies United won under Mourinho? Bros forget that one. The main reason people were against him was his style of play. It was clear that Man United will not win major trophies with that method. In the UCL, one manager lost to Sevilla and talked about legacy afterward. The other overcame a 2-0 deficit in Paris playing youth players. Not saying one is better than the other but there's a sense of direction now than with Mourinho. If we played like we played on Saturday for the next month, then by all means, kick Ole out of the club. We all want the best for the club. Even if they sack Ole and bring in Pochettino or any other coach, I will still support them. Peace brother. |

Leyqute: There are players on the bench sir. At least he let some contenders for depth go out. So depth is not his problem. And saying we played out best football is not true. Which best football is that sir? 1 Like |

Leyqute: Guess what? Mou won the Carling cup and Europa league with Smalling, Jones, Bailly as CBs, Valencia and Darmain as RB, Ashley Young and Shaw as LB, Midfield combination of Miki, Fellaini, Pogba, Lingard, Herrera, Mata and Forward of a Martial and Zlatan with rookie Rashford. Let’s compare and contrast who had the better squad between both of them. ![]() 1 Like |

I'm not against buying players but when you sell your players that can at least be dependable and leave the ones that can't, are you not stupid? |

Leyqute: Europa league is not a major trophy anymore because Mou won it? ![]() Someone that finished 6th with 69pts and won the Carling cup and Europa league in the first season and then followed it up with 81 point finishing 2nd in the league and lost the FA cup final the following season was not moving in the right direction. ![]() But the one that finished 6th in his first half season with 66pts and finished 3rd with the same 66pts the following season is moving in the right direction. The direction is so obvious. ![]() Let’s keep lowering the standard. We go still Dey here together God willingly. |

Leyqute: At the first paragraph, No I agreed with sacking Mou when we did, it was obvious he had lost the dressing room. Expensive mercenaries? ![]() ![]() How did you even arrive at “Europa League is the standard we should attain to”. You can only win what’s in front of you, Europa league was in front of us last season and we lost to Sevilla. Lowering standards I meant in my previous post was that if one thing is not acceptable with one manager, it shouldn’t be acceptable with another manager. That’s where the double standards comes from. 3 Likes |

Expert17:No. I just thought of it. I looked at the squad now and the players who made their subs I no even know where them dey now. Squad depth is just an excuse. Yes we need players but you don't need squad depth to play good football. |

You championed Mou winning the EUropa league as if it's what we should be attaining to. Ole did the same last season and people didn't even bother about it. When it came to the UCL, the trophy that mattered, Mou's taktical masterclass angered many people.
What was acceptable with Mou that is deemed unacceptable with Ole? |

Leyqute: Ole did what last season? Win the Europa league? Leave story for Mathias, Ole can’t clean Mou boats when it comes to tactics. They are not mates in anything. Shoe get size. Weren’t you blaming Mou for the lackadaisical football we were playing under him? Why didn’t you point out that the players we were parading are dross and that’s why we are playing the way we are? So why shouldn’t we blame Ole for the nonsense football we have been playing but instead we should blame the players. Isn’t that double standard? 4 Likes 1 Share |

larride: Meant to say Ole didn’t win Europa and nobody bothered about it. It was clear that many didn’t want Mou’s defensive taktikal masterclass. We were clueless against parkdebus teams. And sometimes sef we are the ones parking the bus vs those small teams. With OGS, there’s a desire to have the ball and play it out from the back. And now, when teams park the bus, we are beating them. Doesn’t mean OGS doesn’t make mistakes and play some players he shouldn’t have. I’ve blamed him for that many times here. How many times have we played as horrible as we did against Crystal palace last Saturday, lacking creativity and all under Olé? And how many times have we parked the bus and played lethargically with Mou at the helm? Agenda must agendate. |
