I'm good with the current squad under Ole. Maybe another CB so we don't have to use Phil Jones so much, but outside that, I can live with it. They've got good chemistry.
I'm with this all the way.

I say let's see what Ole does with this squad who we know needs two CBs really, really bad. Or at least one tall, banger to pair with whoever else they put out there. Right now they've got no physical presence in the box. Burnley pushed them all over the place. Arsenal did too. We def need a thumper CB, hopefully, two but they're hard to find. And we need that fast, tricky mid on the right to take the pressure off Pogba.
We're gonna need some fullbacks soon too. Young is losing pace, Darmian is a mystery, Valencia and Rojo are always injured, etc, etc.
But I agree bro. Ole deserves at least as much time as Mou got. Give him a chance to sign some players he wants in his system. Players might just be ready to come now that Man U are playing like Man U again. That was probably the biggest problem with Mou, his system was so fucking boring nobody wanted to come play for him. Missed out on several players because of it.
Funny cause watching Burnley play, I kept thinking, "this is a Mourinho side all the way. Defend well, and nick goals on the break with no more than 2 attackers."
Sean Dyche better watch out. Mans coming for that job.
Ole knows how to motivate and I also think there's a post-Mou effect present.
About Chelsea...we're too predictable and the stupid cac don't want to adjust and the players...honestly don't deserve their salaries! Heck even Eden missing clear chances. Teams that ManCity, Liverpool or ManU would demolish by 6 goals, we would struggle to score ONE goal against the same team! So frustrating!
I could almost swear it was intentional sabotage! How could you be dominating yet fall 0-4? After the 3rd goal, I was done, couldn't even watch the other games.
That's my squad too! You in the DC/MD/VA area?
Losing Acosta was kind of a shock. PSG wants him to help ease the pain for Neymar being out but I was hoping they'd go after Willian.
Not to derail this great thread but been looking for this thread to vent about my fucking despicable Chelsea team!
@DJCandle when you guys get a new coach at the end of the season, we want your current acting coach!
Mannnnnnn....lemme tell you how mad I was after that damn match. We give up one goal, against the run of play, and then fcking collapse like mental midgets.
Pass, pass, pass,pass,pass,pass,pass. shot into the back of a defender/our own player.
Rinse - repeat
We're so much better when we actually concede possession to better teams. When we play a team that puts 10 behind the ball and has at least one counter threat we're cooked.
Now, had that Kovacic header gone in I'm sure Bournemouth would have folded but they spanked us 3-0 last year in the Bridge too.
I think Zidane and CR saw the writing on the wall a long time ago
Zidane and Pep are short term coaches.
This would be a real challenge for Zidane, to test his coaching skills.
Zidane will fix that mess...it was time to get younger and rebuild anyway.
This is def the litmus test without Ronaldo.
Madrid fans rejoicing right now. I was low key hoping Mourinho would go there and sink that ship but it is what it is.
Lol it's all gravy. We knew.
Man listen.. those youngsters are balling through the ghost of Johan Cryuff.
Ri-dic-u-lous.
You know how it will go next season buy out
They're already getting poached like Monaco did a few years back. As cool as a story as it is, the lure of doubling/tripling your wages is real!
Southampton is Liverpool 2.0. They can build some players too. Bale and Shaw were graduated as well. Van Dijk still in the mix. Makes you wonder what they'd be looking like had they kept these players.
That's the biggest issue for small clubs.
I think FC Porto got a billion dollars of all the players they sold since mourinhio
