So this time they don't mess it up and actually pick the right guy.

Or it could also be that they've got no clue on how to run this football club, which is not new because obviously it's been going on for years now.

But I know there was a bit of a new bounce when he arrived at the club as we see here in 2018 after Jose Mourinho.

And his win percentage is not too bad to be fair, certainly much better than Ruben Amorim.

I'm just not sure really what kind of direction that takes your team and your club and also what it says about your club to go and get him back on the bench.

Thoughts, Steven?

Yeah, I agree.

And really, we've said it often enough on the show, the quality of the Premier League so far this season is average, right?

This is a great opportunity for Manchester United to actually finish in that top five because we know that the fifth place would qualify you for the Champions League.

You should anyway.

And right now, they're in there.

I know it's very tight between 4th and 14th, and yeah, a couple of wins or a couple of defeats can take you down the table or up again.

But they've got no European competition.

They only have the league to focus on.

They're not even in the League Cup anymore.

They will have the FA Cup, of course, this weekend on ESPN, but that's a little bit different.

And that's a great opportunity.

The only thing I would say on Solskjaer, just to go back to Stevie's point,

What happens if he does really well between now and the end of the season?

You cannot give him the permanent job again.
