Why Man United plan of action regarding Wolves manager Gary O’Neil is totally disrespectful
Many Wolves fans were left stunned last night, as a report emerged about Manchester United wanting to talk to Gary O’Neil, but not about becoming their next manager…
It has been suggested that United are looking to speak with O’Neil about forming a new coaching team, as new owners INEOS seek to put their stamp on the club.
Gary O’Neil, who replaced Julen Lopetegui just days before the start of this season, has earned rave reviews for what he has done in eight months at Molineux, taking Wolves up to ninth place in the Premier League table and to an FA Cup quarter-final.
He has only recently started coming in for plaudits for the job he is doing, with plenty of pundits having been left to eat their words.
The report about United comes as a real surprise, mainly because of the potential role that is being suggested – and if the claims are true that this is Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s plan, then it is totally disrespectful…
Gary O’Neil is now a proven Premier League manager and is far better than any coaching role, amid new Manchester United claim
The report that emerged last night from ESPN has predictably prompted quite a big response from both sets of supporters.
The response has largely been negative.
From a Wolves perspective, if it is true that INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe would like to speak to O’Neil about becoming a part of a coaching team, then that is embarrassing on their part.
