This matters. More than any trophy or match or individual accolade. Bravo Mr. @MarcusRashford 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Hey @MarcusRashford a constituent just called to ask me to thank you. He's a disabled man and his children have been in summer activities being fed and active and he is grateful that you stood up for families like his.

The reason there is so much Ole revisionism is that deep down everyone, including his haters, know that Ole was the one.
And he still is.
Bruno and Marcus at MUFC over the last few years, but twitter nerds will have you believe they need to be sold…

This… still would love to give Ole another opportunity with the current squad and growing footballing structure under INEOS. Hoping his name makes its way into the conversation if they decide to go in a new direction.
Good question. I will try. The whole project changed all of a sudden when Ronaldo was signed. Ole wanted a DM (Rice) and an attacking RB (Trippier). Ole wanted to evolve the side a little bit that required more attacks from the right side and solidity in the middle. Club couldn’t sign any of them.
Before Ronaldo, the whole attack was about fluidity, exchange in position, fast and dynamic attacks. Ronaldo changed all that. The whole team was trying to find Ronaldo all the time. His status in the game warranted that and the team took long to get used to it. The attack became predictable.
Having Ronaldo meant our press from the front became ineffective. It affected the defense. Without a proper holding mid it was tough.
The performances suffered. Toward the very end head was down for a few players. Lost big against the best 2 sides in the league. Apart from that 3 other losses in the PL and Ole was gone. Ole managed 12 PL games that season and we lost 5 games and won 5 games.
Make no mistake. It was a dip, but the first proper dip under Ole. The project had changed and the team was taking time to adjust. In hindsight, Ole had done enough for the club to warrant a longer run to fix the issues. I believe he would have fixed the issues in the end. In one game he benched Ronaldo and the whole world erupted. Sir Alex made a public comment and all the pundits criticized Ole for benching Ronaldo. That was kind of the end of Ole. Funny enough, Ronaldo had to leave later and by then it was more acceptable among football people that Ronaldo had to leave.
To be honest, Ole’s overachievement in the previous seasons + signing of Ronaldo meant people thought we could win the title. That was far from the truth as we know now. But, title win or challenge is how he was being judged back then. If top 4 would have been the expectation he would have stayed in the job.

The next order of business for INEOS should be getting out of the @adidas contract and getting #MUFC back into @nikefootball kits, where they belong!

For any of our fans in England following this depressing shit who may not be sure, we are proud to have women working in our men’s departments as we are to have men working in our women’s departments. Football is universal, chauvinism cannot win. Eisern!!!
