Manchester United cannot afford such results, and with Ole Gunnar Solakjaer it seems to have become a habit. Yesterday’s defeat against Watford was the last straw for the patience of the Manchester fans, who have celebrated the dismissal of the Nordic coach in style.
The team has not sealed, far from it, its classification for the knockout stages of the Champions League, and it cannot be allowed with the squad that has to be eliminated from the top European competition, or not be among the top four of the Premier League .
There is a time when if things don’t work out, it’s best to say goodbye and step aside. The romanticism of football separations is based on no one losing their dignity in the attempt to prolong something with an expiration date. If Solskjaer does not want to destroy the image he left as a footballer, he does well to stop stretching his stage as a coach in which he has shown that he lacks many qualities to succeed in a big team.
Manchester should start looking for a suitable replacement from now on to be able to count on him as soon as possible. It is important that he fits in with the philosophy and that he is able to handle a squad of these dimensions where the fight of egos increases in each transfer market.
The one who sounds the loudest is Zinedine Zidane, who seems to be learning English. They lost the opportunity to take Antonio Conte for giving Solskjaer too many last chances.
The Ole era has now come to an end and it cannot be described as an absolute disaster either, since in reality, since the Ferguson era it has been the first to give a certain personality to a team that has lived through a difficult decade.
