Koeman will be in a job until the 22nd Jan with the Presidential elections finished he'll be replaced (by Xavi possibly).
No way Xavi is going to come in as coach before the sticky Messi issue is resolved. He'll be patient, let the thing blow up and then make his move as rebuilding hero, pref with Busi having already retired or gone abroad for a payday.

How sad. I always admired his style as a manager. I thought he had a lot of integrity and honesty as borne out by many of the tributes hitting the news. RIP sir.

Despite the big winning margin if Bamford had his finishing boots on or De Gea hadnt made a few great saves Leeds could have drawn or won that game tbf.

If it doesn't work out for Solskjaer there may be no way back for ManUre
Louis van Gaal slams Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s tactics at Manchester United and reveals sack theory

Louis van Gaal has slammed Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s tactics and explained why Manchester United will be reluctant to sack the manager. Solskjaer, who replaced Jose Mourinho as Red Devils boss in December 2018, has endured a turbulent spell in the Old Trafford hot-seat. Manchester United are currently seventh in the Premier League but could climb as high as second if they win their games in hand. They are already out of the Champions League, however, having lost their final two group games to slip into the Europa League.

There were lots of top quality goals although to be fair it wasn't a real battering. Liverpool only had 8 shots on target and in total they had 1 more shot than Arsenal who lost 2-1 at Everton.

TBF that could have been anything 26 attempts on goal with 14 on target. 5 points off the lead with a game in hand. Rather obvious at this stage they have to be seen as title contenders.

Just pointing out that they scored a bundle of goals against a newly promoted team who have conceded the most goals in the league and at the same time could have conceded a bundle of goals themselves.

And it was a Leeds team with hardly any fit defenders.

Leeds could have won the game but ETB really is full of shit. They had 17 shots which is a lot in a premier league game but ManUre had 26 which is very rarely seen. Leeds had 3 shots on target and ManUre had 14 on target. The ETB shit shovelling is in overdrive
