Manchester United went down 1-0 at home to Aston Villa. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer wasn’t impressed with Villa’s goal, nor with the treatment of his penalty-taker Bruno Fernandes.
Mate...pull your head in.You sound ridiculous.I have played,refereed,coached,watched and loved football for over 50 years.I'm entitled to my opinion,as that's all it is....my opinion.After living for 30 years in Australia I've been back in the UK for the past 3 years now.It's fascinating listening to all the media and pundits voicing their opinions.I disagree with many,agree with many and totally dismiss a lot.
The one common theme this year is how long OGS will keep his job.They're already out of the League Cup,lost their first game in the Champions League,lost at home in the EPL last weekend.The bookies over here have him at odds on to get the sack by Xmas.Man U have the highest wage bill in the EPL but OGS still doesn't seem to know what style of football he wants his side wants to play or who his best starting line up is.
My point was that instead of ridiculous moaning about referees, he should try to get the best out of the unbelievably talented squad that he has....Just my opinion!
oh and by the way. this is a club that was almost brought to it's knees by a bunch of yank owners that probably wouldn't know football if it bit them on the proverbial. Siphoning money off to fund their NFL team, letting the stadium fall into a state of disrepair, selling off Academy talent hand over fist, and getting to the point where the people that really matter to the club, Mancunians, had to take not so positive action to get attention. It took media attention for the Glazers to do something.
Combine that with the fact that if you look at Chelsea, City and Liverpool, they have fully senior teams that have been together for seasons. How many 18 year olds are paddling around at those clubs. The average age last season at Utd was 21. You obviously have a short memory or are not old enough to remember. Ferguson was scorned when he put he class of 92 into the first team. Then he brought in Cantona, a talismanic genius who, once he he gelled with the kids, formed something not many will forget in a long time. What you are seeing is a repeat of history. Utd now have people in key positions that understand the club, it's culture, it's ethos. This team just needs time to gel. What annoys me more than anything is short-handed superficial comments that have no basis, no analysis based substance and absolutely no patience. If you dont understand the complexities, the mechanics, the tactics and the indosynchracises of the beautiful game, then dont make comment.
ahhh, did you have a look at the Leicester game a week previous. that Villa fella di the same thing twice to the Foxes keeper and both goals were disallowed. Hypocrisy!!!
Ole is a dead man walking.With the squad he's got Man U should be up there in every competition but here we are,Ole complaining that his designated penalty taker launched one into outer space on the weekend. He's right on the tight rope now.All it's going to take now is one more bad defeat and he's gone...and he's only got himself to blame.
