Who is the worst United manager ever?

Discussion in 'Manchester United' started by Hoddle is a god, Dec 6, 2016.

  1. For those keeping track of Sir Alex Ferguson's successors at Old Trafford, Jose's 21 points after 14 games with United is worse than under David Moyes (22 points) and Louis van Gaal (25).

    Don't shoot the messenger, lads.

    Does this mean we count "ever" as post Fergie only?

    Football was invented by Sky sports and the premier league so yes I guess.

    Fair enough but using your version of "ever" I could only judge on full tenure (anything else would not be accurate).
    Post Fergie (ever) we have had LvG who got top 4 and the FA cup in the same season, not great but not bad either. Ryan Giggs had a 50% win record so again not the worst which leaves.......... David Moyes, sad but true. A man with no self belief or confidence for the job at hand.

    Different seasons, but success is still success. After all, if you only look at win percentages and points then you have to conclude that AVB is Spurs' best manager since WWII. Try saying that without <laugh>

    Don't taunt HIAG. He has a fragile mind caused by generations of in breeding. He will end up demanding a ban, threatening to sue you and, ultimately, getting so hysterical that he's banned for a spell to aid his recovery.

  11. I'm so glad to see that this hot potato issue is being debated in a sensible manner and without the usual avoidance, counter-blame, and general petty wummery.

    Well done, lads.
