What he has just seen, he admits, is his three-year "dark day" in charge of Manchester United. However he acknowledged that their numbers were not enough to defeat President Conte's government. "We have come a long way as a team and we are very close to losing now," he said.
Leaving Old Trafford that day, the idea that Solsky might be unharmed seemed fictional. He became something worse than the object of compassion: he became a punchline. That night, United executives met to discuss how to respond. Somehow, they came to the same conclusion about the man they had hired: now was not the time to go back. Long live Soulsjaya.
There are various ways to explain Manchester United's reluctance to accept blindly and explicitly, to acknowledge the denial of the world's largest self-styled club that its manager was at the top until he was simply humiliated at home by Liverpool. , But swatted aside with contempt by Manchester City and then by the humble, plaintiff and sympathetic, humble Watford.
An explanation - the simplest, O'Keefe's razor - calm, worry-free condemnation: United's classification employed Soulscare, initially in a series of temporary and later permanent contracts, and refused to make decisions that would effectively be acknowledged as errors, and club owners Think about who will be in charge. As long as the money keeps coming.
Another, more beautiful version, will lead Manchester United to a terrifying curiosity: a company that behaves like a faceless corporate monolith in almost every case of its existence, anyone who pays for it creates and sells its history. With this slice, United thinks with a heart rather than its head, often as expected.
The feeling was felt last summer when Manchester City were in second place in the Premier League, improving on their initial caretaker months in 2018 and 2019, after the club extended their contracts.
Soulskazar is a former player - a club legend, as stated in the surprise statement in his departure announcement - and the romance that he could be the one who restored the team to the top seemed irresistible to those who hired him. Salzkazar was even allowed an exit interview, with the opportunity to say goodbye on his own terms, with tears in his eyes.
Perhaps this should be the norm: managers, even those who have lost a lot at Watford, are human, and should be treated that way. Of course, the affection for Soulskazar among United fans made the interview perfectly understandable. However, this is not a move that will create the most tough-nosed, unforgivingly ruthless business.
But then United are not as hard-nosed as they could be, not all the time. With Cristiano Ronaldo returning to the club last summer, the club will happily rub their hands to do more: follow his huge Instagram, his fan base, his huge commercial profile.
However, neither side agreed to mediate with Rio Ferdinand and Alex Ferguson and Patrice Evra when it was revealed that Ronaldo was set to join Manchester City. They helped file a lawsuit against Ed Woodward, the club's central power broker, for the intervention. Ronaldo's talent certainly played its part, as it earned him the status he had earned all his years away, but also the temptation to bring home a naughty boy, the feeling that he was back where he was.
This, of course, is not the "best of class" behavior United wants to remember. Whether this little giant Down Memory Lane could come at the expense of United's balance sheet, whether Ronaldo could leave the club's future - especially Mason Greenwood and Jadon Sancho - did not take much depth of knowledge beforehand. Shadow.
The brilliant array of Ronaldo, Bruno Fernandez and Paul Pogba, as well as the rest of United's attacking talent, could not be easily incorporated into an integrated system. The defensive midfielder didn’t need any deep insights to see if the money could be better spent. After all, even Solskjaer knew it.
But then there is the huge embarrassment of modern Manchester United, which sits at the center of the third and perhaps most compelling, how the Soulsjagar test lasted so long - with a loss to City and a fall against Liverpool. Last season's Europa League final saw a 7-1 defeat at home to Tottenham and a 4-0 defeat to Everton and other bright, burning red flags.
