enigmatic Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 If they'd played a bit more like that second half more often they might not have needed 19 goals. Almost like, having kept the ball for 45 minutes to ensure they kept their place in the FA cup final, the players were totally ignoring the admonition not to shoot or try anything difficult in order to impress the next manager. Tell you what, that mediocre winger Mata is a hell of a number 10... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coldberg Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Played some really nice football in that second half. Obviously offset by it being the lastgame of the season against Bournemouth in a half empty stadium. Rooney was shocking for the first fifteen minutes & then had a really good game. A fair amount of boos when LvG was shouting into the microphone like a drunk uncle at the end too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timmy Howard Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Expectations too high? Maybe when you fail Louis. May 1 2015: “The board of Manchester United have given me three years for that objective (winning the title). This year we have not challenged but we are very close to second and third. Chelsea are far above but next year is different. Next year it will be a different squad but so will all the other teams like Chelsea, Liverpool Arsenal and City and all the others will be different. But you have seen our matches against the top clubs and there is not a big gap.” 2015/16 pre-season notes to supporters: ”My first season at the club was a step forward because we finished fourth and returned to European football. The aim always has to be to improve. None of us will be happy to finish in the fourth position every year, so we must continue to get better.” Note even Moyes was that insulting in interviews.

Taz & The Devil Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 That LvG interview The fans were booing because their expectations are too high. We finish 5th and go out of the CL in the group stage and our expectations are too high. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has no journalist got the balls to confront the nonsense and point out to him it isn't an unrealistic expectation for Man Utd not to end the season 15 points below Leicester City, or only score 49 league goals?

sebsy Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 If performances like the second half last night were a much more regular occurence, this would have been a great season, just a shame showings like that were limited toan average of one half every dozen or so games. Really can't see any positive reason to keep him. What is the point of going in to a season with a manager you know for a fact is leaving at the end of it? Should go in to the 16/17 season with a manager building to the 17/18 season in his own image, a manager who the board would expect to be there in that following season. If LVG stays, does he get to spend another £150m which a year later may not fit in to a new managers plans at all? You know what, it pains me to say it, but even as vocal as I've been against Mourinho coming in for so many reasons, I think I'd even accept him coming in next season as it would at least mean we had a manager who would be looking to build a team for the next season at the very least. I'd still prefer someone like Pochettino but as Mourinho looks like the only realistic possibility, and it would mean ousting LVG, then I say go for it. This season has been a huge backward step. I haven't seen/read LVG's latest interview but by all accounts he has spouted some utter rubbish again along the lines of our expectations being too high. The man is genuinely deluded and just changes his rhetoric to make it sound like whatever is happening, we should be happy to have him here and want him to stay. Genuinley think that if Moyes had been given a second season he would have improved, where as LVG has got worse, somehow. The FA Cup would be a lovely end to a poor season, but it should not be enough to keep him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bliss Seeker Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Second half of the season has been better than the first half right? Your board will see that as momentum forward and a FA cup win as a reason not to get rid of him. Which makes sense, you have to have some sort of continuity and not having endless 'transition' seasons. What are you, Liverpool? Change the manager and next year will be that kind of season again. Honestly think he'll stay if you win the FA cup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly think he'll stay if you win the FA cup. But he's gone after next season, what is the point of keeping him for what you know is a last year. Fergie himself said that when he first announced his retirement it had a negative impact on that season, because he wasn't looking to the future and the players/club knew he was going. Then he ended up staying for seevral more years and then only announced his retirement near the end of the season he left and that that made it easier to work with. I don't think you can qualify it by saying the second half has been better than the first. If it has and we still finish 5th then how awful was the first half? You have to judge the overall season which has been really poor. And it isn't all about league placement, it is so many things. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timmy Howard Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Second half of the season has been better than the first half right? Barely.
