Jesus! 9 wins and one draw out of ten games and people still think it's not good enough
Yep, think it's healthy. I think a player could score for 9 games and we would say he was necessarily the answer....

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.

It was but why the drama. We can't play great all the time. At the end of the day 3 points is all that matters. Of course games like today one shouldn't be the norm.
My god! Do you demand gold, diamonds and 40 virgins every birthday?
Your expectations exceed yourself.
It may seem like it happened a while ago when you look at Chelsea nowadays but Sarri was unbeaten in his first 12 games with them.
I am asking who you think would fit in what you are looking for.
And, how can you be sure that your manager will be better than the one who is actually doing it good winning 9 out of 10 and showing some decent tactical knowledge against some tough teams already?

It's almost as if some of our fans are actively searching for something to whine about. Pathetic to be honest.
How about focusing on the positives rather than the negatives for a change, people?
Again as I’ve mentioned previously it’s not ‘ being a bad fan’ to give an honest appraisal of a performance. Otherwise you never learn. I hope Ole isn’t telling them all we were amazing in the dressing room now.
He’s done well, I’m glad he’s there & he’s definitely a contender for the job permanently now which is impressive- but let’s not start calling fans ‘bad fans’ for a bit of honesty now.
It was not a 5-0 win, but we need wins like this. Have you seen us under SAF?
Not drama and yes I think tactically there are questions that could be asked.
"… if it's Ole?" If WHAT is Ole?????? We just got 9 wins and one draw out of 10 fecking games?
Did you think Leicester would be easy? We just got three points at the home of the team that recently held everyone's favourite for the league to a draw … at Anfield.
I don't get how in the first few games the passes were quick and incisives. There was hardly any misplaced balls. The last couple of games, our playing style has regressed back to the mourinho days.
I honestly don't think the team has improved since Burnley, and that says alot about Ole.

Now we know Ole knows how to grind out a result away from home.
Yeah, it’s crazy how quickly we went back to being spoilt.
Perhaps some of the subs were questionable but today was largely down to a combination of players underperforming and a number of personnel that need upgrading.
Why would Ole tell them that. I mean he certainly doesn't say the same thing to the media and them.
It’s not that it wasn’t a 5-0 win. We were very lucky to get a basic 1-0 win.
Yeh in SAFs last few years we had too many of those performances. Doesn’t mean you should lie to yourself & say it’s a good performance.
Talk about drama queens- an honest appraisal of a game is apparently cause for unrest here. Which is silly as I actually like Ole & think he’s done really well.
Just not today
fecking drama queens in here though
Leicester are a good side. Especially at home. Probably as difficult a game as any after the top 6. We started the game off brilliantly, got the lead and then tried to hit them on the break. It's the common sense approach. We were sloppy individually and gave it away too easily, but still had plenty of openings ourselves and didn't really concede clear chances through anything they created really. Sometimes you can't change too much, and the game is in a fragile position that you just kind of keep it as is or make like for like changes and you trust your players to hold on.
9 wins from 10 including wins away to Tottenham, Arsenal, Leicester. What the feck do people want? You think we're going to hammer every team we play home and away? You think Pep, Klopp do that or Sir Alex did that? Leicester just drew with Liverpool, beat City, beat Chelsea this season. They're not an easy team to play against. At all.

Good job so far. He won’t be able to sort out the issues we have in the team with the current players so I’m fully expecting more poor performances.
Are you actually serious, or a WUM getting worried about United coming good again?!
Haha. Yeah hard to imagine that now. Also a reminder for us to keep feet on ground
Regardless of luck or style (which has for the most part been good) we've done really well.
We've won 9 out of 10 and have gotten into a position where we are fighting for Champions League football next season. We've got the most points of all teams since he came. The players are happy, and we got a result on a bad day today.
I'm happy. He hasn't even been able to adress any areas he think is problematic in the squad either, but works with what was here when he came. We're struggling with quality in depth, and that is showing in his subs.

Are some of you that precious that we can't objectively critique Ole. We know he's won 9/10 and has done a fantastic job but questions do need to be asked of his game management. We're not digging criticism out of thin air.
Ah I see. You can't be sure about that and for me it's probably between Ole and Poch. I'm unsure if Ole is good enough at this level and that's it.
I'd prefer Poch as it stands.
You know how they'd fecking react. (I know it was rhetorical, but...)
Think we have lots and lots of scousers pretending to be United fans on here these days tbh...
If you think it’s high expectations to expect to not play poorly at a mid table team & to not be severely under the cosh for a lot of it then maybe that says something about what your expectations are now of this club
We will see and no doubt he's done well but I always think we need to put the emotions to one side and be clear that we are making the right decisions. If Ole is the right person, without trying to be clever not sure what he's done to merit it aside from being a player here. Managers like Poch don't come around very often and we need to be clear if Ole is the right person...
I said this after he was brought in...
I still maintain that point. I think it's best if we stay away, we're not the right club to make this work. And it isn't Oles fault. He's been great so far.
Those performances will bring you silverware. So for me and many other fans, this is beautiful.
Okay, I now know that you are a completely spoiled brat, or a WUM.
Ignoring you from now.
A manager like Poch has had three scrappy wins in a row. Not good enough.
You don't think the team has improved since Tuesday?! Well that's that then. I mean, he's had 4 days!
We played poorly today but won, we came back from 2-0 on Tuesday and drew. We're top of every metric since he took over.
We robbed Leicester in all fairness but that’s footy and shouldn’t be the basis for a decision to keep Ole or not. The concern lies in the overall general performance especially in response to the Burnley draw. To be honest we were pretty awful today, shifted from mediocre to crap the twenty minutes either side of half time and by the end looked dead. I think Ole has few real options from best 11 and his key players looked exhausted. The spine is great but suddenly brittle when key players disappear. The squad needs bolstering but that doesn’t change my opinion of Ole for the job and keep the management team behind him for at least next season.
I don't low why I still get surprised by the whiny entitlement on here
I don't think we were lucky to get the win at Leicester. Because of our attacking in the first half we could have been up by 3 goals come half time. Now that didn't happen so we dragged the tempo down while protecting a lead away from home against a team who are very dangerous against top teams. That to me sounds like SAF with a splash of classic Mourinho, should make for a very good manager that. Don't let the last 10-15 minutes turn your head, we are in the modern Premier League era, what do you expect. Tactics were fine but the players were a bit tired and some are just about good enough for top 4 really.
We weren't great today far from it but Leicester are no mugs and we battled and got the three points. Ole has been fantastic.
Tough game they just got a point at Anfield and maybe should have taken all 3. They also beat City and Chelsea this season so it was a good win albeit a grind.
Wasn't the strongest performance ever but your posts smack of relegation! You are obviously NOT a United fan. Definite WUM … you just earned yourself a block from this member
