Lampard has suffered more defeats than Ole this season, in case you haven't noticed. this is a moot point.
United finished 6th last time and that was due to Ole taking over in January when the team was destined for a mid-table finish. if you cannot see the work the man has done so far, you don't understand football.
Lampard took over a team that finished comfortably in 3rd position last season. he's not sure of getting the 3rd position this season with only two games left, what is the difference?
How did Ole get the job on a permanent basis?

Please don't compare Lampard and Ole for now.

How could Ole have dealt with Pogba leaving and a transfer ban?

That's a Man u team without:
Pogba
Bisaka
Maguire
James
Bruno
Ighalo.

So Lampard has had to work in a more difficult situation.

We nor hear them rub Chelsea varchester vargerson today when una win losers of a club na so una they complain say Ferguson they bribe referee that I never see any bad losers like una.
Chelsea is not the only one complaining about Man u and VAR. So it's not a Chelsea problem. Lampard already did his job yesterday by putting the match officials in the spotlight.
Man u fans are suffering with reality here, they said the match was fixed, the same way they wailed after Chelsea vs Man City. So they are the bad losers here.

Check online, you'll see Man u fans dream list :
Finish 3rd
Win FA cup
Win Europa league
To have those taken away from you is not easy, but it is what it is.

How did Mike Dean favor Chelsea?
He gave Man u their normal penalty. So he favoured Man u. Imagine if Chelsea had not scored 3 before the pk. Of the 4 meetings this season, Man u played pk in 3.

Man u lost and Bruno was battered. Man Utd fans are finding it difficult to accept because of the noise they made prior to the match.
It wasn't long ago that you people said Chelsea vs City was fixed too. Any result that doesn't favour Man u is a fixed result. At least Man u got their normal penalty as a palliative.

Been light supporters long time...The day I read about behind dressing room stories, like players having hang over, Player betting on their team to lose, I stopped adding too much of emotion.

Some matches even from the line up already suggested something like Fixed...
But when he won a Chelsea team that had Batshuayi, Gilmour, Caballero and co. It wasn't a fixed match and Ole was a World class coach.

Hehehehe... See dem!!! United go smash Hammers on Wednesday, and you will be back on the Olé train!!!

But yeah, I feel your pain sir!!! Olé got this line up totally wrong!!! It's like he handed the game to Lampard! This was not a competition... The fans deserved better.

At least Arsenal can boldly say they actually beat full strength Liverpool and Man City teams within one week. This was not a test for Lampard at all...

Let him and Chelsea not enter Liverpool game thinking they are in top form. Hmmm...
Are Liverpool in top form?

There's nothing that can guarantee that Man u would have won with another set up. Greenwood has been off for like three matches now, and both pogba and Martial didn't play sh't when they came on.


By the way, people can blame De gea all they want, but he made some really good saves today.

I walked out after 40 minutes, why keep your better performers (Martial, Greenwood and Pogba) on the bench? SMH
So Rashford and Bruno are not top performers?
What did Greenwood do in the last match he started? Pogba played more than 30 minutes today?
Lampard for once was able to nullify United Park the bus and counter tactics today, that's after putting the officials in the spotlight about VAR yesterday.
Also tell your coach to take it easy on Bruno, he has started all Man Utd games since he joined.

Lol. With how bad we have been, the lowest we finished a season is 7th in 13/14. Your dear club has even dropped to 10th position sef not as long. grin
Then we bounced back and won the league the following season.

Man u should be worried seriously, not only that Leicester has won the league more recently than them, but same Leicester has spent the whole season above them. That's after losing 80m worth of defender to them.

Now look what this Barca chief is saying below

The penalties cannot be ignored when its obvious. Ref must make the call with Reviews of VAR. My advice to you is to msg Lampard and inform him of the possible attacking threats that could lead to goal Galore tomorrow evening if he underrate the attacking trio of Rash, Martial and Green.

Thank you.
I mean VAR is also meant to check other decisions like bad tackle, offside goals, etc.

It's left for Lampard to address Man u park the Bus and counter tactics that has been used to best him three times already this season. That's same tactics teams like Sheffield, Westham and other small teams have used against him.
But he has fared better against teams like a Wolves, arsenal, city, spurs etc.

But a win is a win, no matter how it arrives.

Are you trying to bring giggsy to the level of lampard this is an insult to the welshman illustrious career there is a reason Ferguson regarded Giggs as a genius at the age of 18.
Abeg make we die the matter. Genius of Manchester United no doubt. Upon how dominant Man u were in his days, i doubt if he ever made it to the last 10 of the Ballon di"or.
Lampard has more goals and more assists for Chelsea alone than giggs had for Man Utd in 22 years. Giggs was just lucky to be in a team that won more trophies.

i feel for lampard though. he's already looking for excuse to give so abramovic won't hand him the P45 when he loses to man u tomorrow for the umpteenth time this season.
Even if he loses tomorrow with 10 Nil and didn't make the top 4, nobody will sack him yet. He has already surpassed the expectations set for him this season. Next season is when he will be properly judged after all the necessary holes in the team has been plugged.

What am saying is very clear and simple man utd success is based majorly on the trophies won in the 80’s and 90’s.

How many PL trophies did you win in 2000s compared to yesteryearshuh?
You can't underestimate their success in the past. But even with the VAR controversy and ref bias their team is still struggling.

but we struggling for top 4 due to many reasons

we neva had any creative midfielder up until bruno came

our two main strikers were out injured for lengthy period

nd we had to cope wit thursday night football

nd dat defensive line dis is their 1st season together
That doesn't justify Man u still struggling with Chelsea and Leicester at this stage of the season. Leicester even lost an 80m player to your club but still spent the whole season ahead of Man u on the log.

I'm the greatest critique of my own team, but you Man u fans don't like to admit the truth..
Your coach has been there since last season, you brought in players both in the summer and January, by now Man u should have locked down that 3rd position if they can't challenge for the title.

And funny enough Bournemouth scored a similar offside recently which was disallowed in a similar fashion. Most people are just being emotional unnecessarily.
We'll trash ChelShit a fourth time and the sky won't fall!
Chelsea is not Man u problem. You've trashed them thrice this season, you've trashed Man City thrice too. But what's the end result?

It doesn't matter if you beat a particular team 10 times, but can't get the results when you need it.

“United have had a number of high profile decisions go in their favour this season, the most recent coming on Thursday when Crystal Palace's Jordan Ayew had a goal ruled out for a marginal offside, before Victor Lindelof appeared to bring down Wilfried Zaha in the box but no penalty was given”

~That is the fact but FA has apologized. Hope it will not repeat itself again tomorrow.
It becomes bad when it happens repeatedly. Goals, penalties, red card offence.

The FA must realise that it's not by force to push a team to the top of the table.
And one thing about those small teams is that the moment they realise they are playing against the match officials, they just give up and stop trying.
Aston Villa were hanging on before that controversial penalty. When it came, they just opened up.

Let's talk about this statement of yours. Cups? Really?

Using this same legend of yours, Lampard and the Giggs you asked for.

Giggs has 34 trophies which is almost thrice the trophies Lampard managed for Chelsea with 13 only.
In the PL alone, Giggs has over thrice the total Lampard has.
And for good reason too. He's been tearing them apart since 1991.
Giggs spent 22 years, a winger for that matter and didn't come close to scoring 170 goals. People like sterling will break that record in almost a third of 22 years. That tearing apart is just a myth coined by Man u fans.

We are talking about individual contributions here, teams win trophies. Man u have more trophies than Chelsea, no one can dispute that. Some are lucky to play in a trophy winning team while some are not. Henderson has lifted more trophies than Gerrard, but individually, he doesn't come close to him.

Big teams are trying not to become like Man u and AC Milan.
If Bruno likes himself, let him go to a team capable of winning the league and not waste away in a Quota system club that has nothing to offer. Even disposable cup, he won't win it at Man u

I'll attach Lampard's Goals and assists below for Chelsea, excluding City and Westham.
Bring any midfielder's in Man u, both past and present that can match him, including scholes and Giggs. Only Ronaldinho prevented this Legend from winning the Ballon Di"or in 2005, when he came second.

He's right about the VAR claim, and he's not the only coach talking about it. Him talking about it is just a way of putting the officials in the spotlight tomorrow.

It's true that Chelsea have struggled against lower teams this season, cos they always park the bus and counter. Chelsea have decent records against the likes of city, Liverpool, Spurs Arsenal...

It's left for Lampard to find a solution to Ole park bus and counter tactics.

United have players that run around in the box trying to find space so it's not surprising that they get more tackles and also more penalties.

Aside from the Bruno incident people are really imagining things.
