    @@NotReallyTho_ What did 2nd and 3rd get us? You should rephrase your question to, "our rivals enjoyed us winning nothing under Ole?" Yes, our rivals did enjoy that. You obviously didn't live through the glory years if you were happy with 2nd and 3rd.

    @@kevinconway2965 ​ @kevinconway2965 it got us into Champions league which got us more money and could help attract better players, dont think we could've signed Sancho or Varane in the Europa League. Not Ole's Fault that all of our players except for our goalkeeper scored a penalty in the europa league final, Also our main starting front 3 under Ole was Rashford, Martial/Cavani and Greenwood, now if you were to drop those players who would you put in the starting lineup? and who ever it is I bet they wouldn't get us into the top 4. Now you may not know this but this club is a shambles behind the scenes. No manager is going to come into this club and win a title in the first 2 years and if you go back and look at the trophies we've won since SAF retired we had an easy run in all of them. Ole had to play against teams like Roma and AC Milan, Mourinho played against teams like Celta Vigo and Anderlecht, I know we played Ajax in the final but that Ajax team wasnt even that good. If im not happy finishing 2nd or 3rd then im not gonna be happy finishing 5th or 6th am I because they're the only other places we've really finished the last 8 years. And lastly I did live through the glory days I'm just not ungrateful. Hating a club legends period as manager isn't gonna bring us a title, the other managers we've had are hardly better than him.

    Before he took the managerial role and the press made him a meme, I honestly can't think of a single player so unanimously adored by a club. He went from the first player to speak out about the takeover to a supposed glazer puppet. There's a reason 70k rocked up to his testimonial, the man bleeds united.
