What did Edwards do before his current job?

I’m sure I read he was at Spurs and Comolli recruited him (into a different role) for us.

The Solskjaer thing is bonkers, it Might work for them but seems a big risk. I can’t think who would be the equivalent managerial team if we were in the same situation?

Steve Staunton and Gary Mac..?

It can’t get much worse for them though (or can it)?

For us... Gerrard and GMac probably.

he was performance analysis, before managing it.

Gerrard is the ultimate legend (Kenny aside). Where is Solskjaer on the United legend list.

Ah yes.

And now he is deal maker extraordinaire.

I was thinking more in terms of management than playing.

Ole is 22 on their legend list, our last 100 players who shook the kop had Hamann there.

Solskjaer was no Gerrard though, he was a cult Supersub who scored important goals but was never their talisman. Maybe more equivalent to us being managed by David Fairclough.

Edit: answer above noted

I cant believe this is the best plan they can come up with. They are essentially writing the season off and looking to sweep the decks for a new manager to come in the summer. Could have at least had a crack to win the CL with an old head in charge.

A new manager who will have no CL football, will be looking at City, Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal, Spurs to compete with in the league. I'm not sure what kind of manager/player they will be able to lure tbh, I think Blanc may have turned his nose up at the temp job and will get the permanent job if everyone decent rejects it.

Woodward is thinking he'll bring the fans onside with these lads in the dugout but when it continues to go tits up this season, he wont have Mourinho to take the heat and it will be cranked on him.

I've no idea how much we are paying Michael Edwards but we should tie him down before they even think to poach him to restructure the club.

Maybe hoping for a Di Matteo type fluke.
