    The problems at MU seem way more deeply rooted than a new manager is going to solve tbh

    Yes. But a crap manager isn't going to make much headway towards that (for supporting evidence observe their last two and a half years). Would personally have preferred to see them becalmed for longer. Not potentially making steps to improve.

    Thing is with a whole host of new backroom/DoF style staff in place, Ineos having day to day club control… who is left to blame aside from the manager?* He’s had 100s of millions to spend. No one knows what their style of play is other than ‘a bit shit’.

    • Though it’s hilarious that at least 2 appointments are for player recruitment and in the summer Ten Hag was allowed to buy a load more of his old Ajax players as that’s worked well up to now…

    I'm quite looking forward to the inappropriate and unfair facial-visage-shaming alluding to equine comparisons questioning the long face while Van Nistelrooy is in interim charge

    Nuno not now being linked. In fact, you could get better odds on Steve McClaren. I would have thought he might be given our start, and I actually think he'd do a good job there.

    Why would he take a job at a lesser Prem club?

    We should have a poll!

    a) Is this obvious trolling?
    b) is he really that thick?

    You pair of Mitchell brothers have a funny take on life if you consider it trolling to suggest that Nuno could do better at Man U than Steve Fucking McClaren.

    Did a genuine retard bring Steve McClaren into this? Or was it just the normal trolling vibe?

    McLaren has twice been assistant manager at United and he’s never been sacked by Spurs after 10 games. It’s not impossible they’d consider him as a caretaker for a few months. Ruben Amorim, anyway.

    RVN was placed specifically to occupy this role, wasn't he?

    I mentioned McLaren purely because he's one of the name on the bookies' list, bizarrely. And Nuno isn't. My point was just that's curious given Nuno's stock is rightly very high at the moment. That's not trolling, that's just missing the point which seems to be a frequent problem. No need to apologise.

    Lampard appears to be the leading contender for the Coventry job.
