She’s a good manager, tactically very aware and seems to manage his players well. It’s a shame I can’t like him at all, he’s from like 15mins up the road from me.

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.
I believe Frank is as safe as in his mothers arms, he will get this season for sure & the way his young lads are playing may get next year as well.
Chelsea will unravel by Christmas. A long season expecting these young players to keep up some flashes of potential? Sure.
Desperate times on here when folks are advocating for Brentan 
Have you forgotten how his stint went at Liverpool once toothy was gone? He buckled under pressure over there, it is only amped up more at United.

Still one of the very best managers around. A United sized budget could make him a championship wining manager. Certainly would fit our management position better than Ole imo.Desperate times on here when folks are advocating for Brentan

Liverpool didn’t exactly have the deepest squad in the league when he was there either.
Your manager is Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, mate. I wouldn't really be piping up much about managerial quality...Desperate times on here when folks are advocating for Brentan

Lads, lads! In various threads in this forum, I have read your desire for Maddison, Ndidi, Pierera, Chillwell, and now our manager. You already have the bargain basement Maguire, why dont you just support Leicester????
He mighty have learned something since then, you know.
Say no more - Mourinho is their man.
Oppps
This is where we are at currently. Leicester fans bantering us on our own forum! And people fawning over Brendan Rodgers, who used to be mocked every week during his Celtic tenure with special threads and some posters even writing sarcastic poems about him!
You couldn't make it up even if you tried.
Pathetic isn't it?
These are the same people who would be calling these players out after they signed an inevitably didn't turn us into world beaters.
That’s not a bad idea, one of my relatives went to Leicester University many a year ago, always had a soft spot for them anyway.
People want him as United manager, really!?
Guy said how defending is easy while his Liverpool conceded 50 goals each season in PL ( i think ). Anyone remembers his interview regarding Marion B.?

I don’t really take anyone who doesn’t rate him seriously. They know nothing about football.
He’s said some silly things in the past but it’s absolutely obvious that he’s a great coach. Something we need badly.

One of the key aspects of management is recruitment. In this respect Brendan Rodgers is poor. Yes he will sign unknown gems i.e. Coutinho and Dembele but sadly it's accompanied by too much shite.
Of course he’s better than Solskjær. Rodgers will be managing at Premier League level for the next decade and beyond. Ole’s career will be finished outside of Norway by January.
But while he’d be an improvement and we’d be happy to be in Leicester’s position right now, it still wouldn’t be enough, as it wasn’t for Liverpool.

Not many managers have a flawless record. Guardiola bought Nolito, Mendy and Mangala. We at Leicester have spunked millions on lemons.
We just beat Leicester
And you're still 7 points behind them after 9 games.
We're 7 points behind them
The season is 7 games old. We are 5 points behind. We're also the only team to beat Leicester so far this season, for what token that is worth.
Are you two from the future?
No offence, but you're clueless if you can't see the difference. Rodgers has transformed a good side into a very good side. They have a style of football and are on a clear trajectory. Not sure you can say the same for us sadly.
We just beat Leicester. Why is saying this some sort of trigger for everyone? It's factual.
Absolute nonsense. What correlation has Ole's quality as a manager (which we know is not sufficient) got to do with Brentan (which we also know is not enough)?
He might have learned, he might have not. Given how many wrong managers we've appointed in succession, we can't afford another manager who is piss poor in spending the money. The team is in need of a massive rebuild, can't have array of flops which Brentan has a history of buying.
Lets be honest, it was a tight win, from a soft penalty. Rodgers definitely got that one wrong. Im honestly not trying to boil your pee, but I would no way swap our best eleven for yours. I cant remember saying that about a Man United team.
You're not wrong. Just as Wolverhampton, Southampton and Crystal Palace were all impossibly lucky to walk away with points. It goes both ways. I'm not at all fuzzed about where we are. We allow very few goals and have very key players injured, several of them. This will end well.

We buckled under no pressure mind you
Begrudgingly i nominate this for post of the year
To be completely fair, you'd think most of the Caf are supporting the opposition team every time we play.
It hurts less that way.
We have a superior backline (been awhile since i've seen leicester with such a poor cb pairing in evans/soyuncu) and a younger front line with much higher ceiling. The biggest difference is that you have a proper striker in good form, but dont let me get in the way of your celebrating a heavy drubbing of the mighty Newcastle.
Don't you have your own team's forum to gloat, instead of trying to rub some made up BS in our faces and act superior? I really don't get how we have allowed so many different opposition fans to consistently toy with us and banter around about our current situation. Are the Manchester United fans masochistic and enjoy getting put down by the fans of Leicester fecking City?
My God, we have literally lost everything that made us a big club, including fanbase mentality.
Oh I would never trust him with transfers.
But I can imagine that he's learned something about how to deal with adversity and pressure from it. I wouldn't expect him to cracks in quite the same way as he unravelled from his third season onwards with us.
Part of it was also escalating political battles with the transfer committee and using players as pawns in that. It was a mess.

Compare that to Solskjaer getting Cardiff relegated. Brendan's worst experiences are better than Solskjaers best accomplishments in English football. While I don't think Rodgers is my personal first choice as a replacement he's without doubt a better coach / manager than Ole.
I don't disagree with any of it really, but you know the structure at our club. Manager is all powerful when it comes to transfers and Brentan is poor with it. We need to aim for a better manager next time round.
90% of managers in PL are a better coach/manager with more accomplishments than Ole but that doesn't mean we should hire them.
They’re from next week
Still maintain he was fecked over by the stevie me final farewell tour. You were doing alright until that took over and he was pressured into playing him more, then your form fell off a cliff.
Nah. Our form fell off a cliff because we replaced Suarez with Rickie Lambert and Balotelli.
