That suggests they don’t want Rodgers and are waiting for another manager 

Or they do and he's told them he can't move until the summer, although actually think he's not what they're after.

Interim will be someone like Laurent Blanc, won't it? Then they'll get a big appointment in the summer.

Well his brother (Sauvignon) did nothing to make watching us yesterday the slightest bit enjoyable.

Ole is the first permanent Man Utd manager to not win a trophy in his tenure for 50 years.

 

Last manager was Frank O'Farrell, who won the Second Division with us.

Harry, your team are in trouble and need you as Club Captain to pull them through it and raise their standards

I bet Conte’s crying in his pasta now for having taken the Spurs job 

He'll be tearing his hair out.

 

But can at least glue it back on again afterwards.

I won't be surprised if that happens, though to be fair Blanc hasn't really done much in management. Not the most inspiring appoint. They missed out big time on Conte, as he fitted the bill perfectly for what they needed. Somebody successful, modern and strict. Zidane would be good for them but I'm not sure if he's interest in coming to England due to the fact he's turned down a club big English club jobs recently. Funny listening to talksport how some United fans are calling for Steve Bruce  surely times have got that bad for them.

Maguire getting sent off after cupping his ears against Albania is pure comedy. The bloke is an absolute joke.

Michael Carrick will now take charge of the team for forthcoming games, while the club looks to appoint an interim manager to the end of the season.

 

So not Zidane coming in then, given he's available now.

Was he saying, "Look at me  I'm good enough to score against Albania, ghosting in between the P.E. Teacher and the Goat Farmer, I'm therefore worth every penny of my salary, it redresses all of Utd's defeats this season, I'm right and everyone else is wrong". Week later he's back on his ass being shown a red card when his team are in the s**t 

[Haywood_6]

Rodgers might of had a chance at the Utd job if our form didn't fall of a cliff this season. I'll be surprised if they're still interested in him now.

Cancel your tea times folks, games are set to get even longer.

 

Wouldn't you love to see his response to VAR week in week out 

[Leicesterpool]

Could you see Bielsa being able to step up from Leeds to Man U.

[fazzyfox]

It's bad news for us though, they were managed by an Elf on a Shelf clown with no big time managerial experience (and with a dressing room with at least three player managers with their own philosophies) and in future won't be.

I think only Wan-Bissaka, Rashford, Greenwood and Martial would be able to play at his desired frantic tempo and intensity but perhaps anchored by Phillips or Rice it would be a way to go but would need a huge overhaul of players.

Looks like he's par for the course apart from no trophies

Can you blame them?

If Man City put 6 past Everton we could finish the weekend a place higher in the table than we started it after what was arguably our worst home "performance" in years! 

[splinterdream]

There's only one man for the Yanited job, the fans will know it makes sense 🤣

[foxes_rule1978]

It was pure comedy seeing ole try to go up against klopp, pep and tuchel… get Rooney in next

Don't think that's a foul at all. 

[Jonezy]

The box-flopper at it again. Come on VAR, that can't be a penalty.
