It’s an interesting one and maybe not as straightforward on first thought, are you judging on silverware? League position, how the players performed under them?
Because essentially they’ve all been sacked and left the club ok not the best terms and we have Ten Hag who we’ll see about. But as far as success, player performance despite what you may think of him, it’s gotta be Mourinho hasn’t it? Ten Hag hasn’t got a clue what his style of play is and is just as bad a man manager as modern mourinho so it’s up in the air to me.
Who would you say has been the best?

In order it’s Jose, ole, lvg, then eth or moyes. Moyes had the worst pl finish but eth has had some of the worst results in the club’s history while playing awful football despite being backed
Jose and always will be now.
- Michael Carrick
- Solkjaer
- Mourinho
- Giggs
- Van Gaal
- Ten Hag
- That German dude that nobody remembers
I think Mourinho was carried somewhat by De Gea during his tenure at Utd.
David Moyes
Ole, easily. The vibes were fucking out of this world during lockdown.
Easily Ole. We had some wild (and great) results. We won trophies with Mourinho but I don’t remember too many great games. With Ole we’ll always have Paris.
I’d say Ten Hag so far followed by Ole
I do disagree with OP and his statements about Ten Hag.
The only reason why people are saying what are the tactics/style, is because the players are not actually executing it.
This argument of no tactics has been used for EVERY single manager since SAF, and the common denominator is the players attitude.
You’ll continue to not see a plan or tactic because it just won’t be executed, and the players know they have the power to move people on.
Gotta go with Ole. I believe him when he said he wanted to sign Haaland, Rice and others before they got crazy expensive. The top brass did him dirty
Mourinho was a busted flush and toxic as fuck. And almost everywhere he’s gone it’s always ended the same way.
That said, it wasn’t all his fault either, but this revisionist history of his time at United is absolute shite.
The football was awful to watch with a strong squad at his disposal.
Not saying he was a bad manager, he just wasn’t ever a fit for United manager.
I’m not sure it’s accurate to say ETH is a bad man manager. There have been a couple of players he’s had run ins with, but one was CR7, who is about as diva as they come, and the other is a young player who’s done nothing and thinks he’s somehow entitled to play just because he had one good season at his old club 4 years ago, and publicly came out in defiance of the manager.
Frankly, had it been Fergie, CR7 would have been sold in the summer before he left, because he was never going to fit the system (it was patently obvious ETH was told when he came in that he had to keep him), and he would have done exactly the same with Sancho, he’ll be gone in January.
It’s funny how being hardline with players is seen as tough love and putting the club first when you’re winning, but it can turn into getting labelled as a bad man manager when you’re not.
The most fun watching United has come from Ole-ball. Sure it had its downsides and was pretty inconsistent at times but the exhilaration of some of those large margin victories and performances makes it worth it.

All of them have given me fond memories as a Liverpool fan
