The one thing that pleases you most since Ole took over

Keeping things simple against the lower teams just as Fergie did, letting the individual qualities of our players shine.

With Van Gaal We tried to win the ball possession stat, with Mourinho We approached those games as if it's Cardiff vs Barca in Champions League final (cardiff = us).
 
The feeling that I can turn on the game and expect us to comfortably trounce teams. Under Moyes, LvG and the toxic one we probably only had a handful of games where I thought we were nailed on to score at least four, and even then we mostly failed to deliver.
 
I'll go with the midfield three. The balance is just right. We've dominated possession without trying to dominate possession, but rather by attacking relentlessly and pressing with the same intensity. The midfield balance has allowed that. We've got a runner, a destroyer and a creator.
 
The thing that pleases me most is that I wake up in the morning disappointed that we aren't playing again. It's been soooooo long.
 
That I don't feel sad again every time we win a match because it elongates the hated one's reign and inevitable booting out from the club.


Sad days then, glad to have my club back and Souness it's so shit at being a pundits
 
Not sitting back on lead. The players are hungry for goals and keep attacking after we score. Just like SAF times .
Players getting forward at 3-1 or 4-1 feels so satisfying.

It's funny because a lot of people were saying we arent suited to a 433. When really it was just Jose's awful tactics rather than the formation.
 
Players making runs where there is space. Just seeing that makes me so happy.
 
The interchanging between Rashford, Martial and Lingard.

If you keep an eye out for it, it's beautiful. Rashford in particular has been extremely intelligent about plugging gaps left, right and in midfield. Then, when he gets there, there's no shortage of quality on the ball or options being offered by his teammates.

A joy to watch. A lot like United in 2007. Saha was in the studio yesterday. Very apt, I thought.
 
That Ole has vindicated everyone that said we weren’t rubbish and we would vastly improve if we free’d the fullbacks and wingers only for those people to be called Einstein’s mockingly Ole did it for them :lol:
 
Obviously our football is immediatley better, but the thing that pleases me most is not seeing that miserable little fecker on the sidelines anymore.

And Ole smiling.
 
The lineup. Not having to see Fellaini, Lukaku and Alexis stink up the place week in week out.

Not having to see Pogba as a DM.

Rashford up front.
 
Running with the ball, forward passing, pressing, taking players on, positive faces in the dugout instead of frowns.

The best thing is most definitely looking forward to watching us play again. Was a chore/punishment for so long with absolutely zero enjoyment

This, and sure, we will come unstuck with this approach, but that last few years have reminded us, winning is great, but watching enjoyable football is better.
 
As the past 2 opposing managers have mentioned in their post game, the thing I appreciate the most under Ole has been the freedom with which the players are now playing with. No one is afraid of trying things and taking risks anymore and it's benefited us tenfold

The whole positive vibe coming out of the camp has also been appreciated, Ole's really brought back the feel good factor and United games are must watch TV once more
 
The various Ole related chants which have galvanised the fan base and electrified the players alike. Feels like a United fan base again where everyone is singing off the same hymn sheet again.

Winning and attacking football - who knew the two could go hand in hand together.
 
Aldo I still have the greatest respect for Mou the endless possibility of Rashford's and Martial's development under the new manager.
 
He’s positive in all aspects. He’s a striker and knows goals are what the game is all about. None of this “nullify the opposition” shite.
 
Everything is just more relaxed, no tetchiness. It sounds so simple and almost ridiculous but smiling faces just give everything a different feel.
 
Everyone just seems happier. I have my doubts as to whether it will last but these past three games have been the most fun we've had in years. Also really pleased our midfield is performing well again.
