To be fair she was probably overwhelmed by his wit and intelligence .

Then along comes @worsleyweb and she realises that wit and intelligence are overrated characteristics......!

They do need a big name but I believe the board’s hand will be forced.

When it is clear they are out of the title race and out of the CL, PEG will begin to turn on his players even more so. They will revolt and do everything to get him the sack.

They will probably go for Ancelotti. He won’t win titles but he is a big name and that’s more important for them.

Personally I hope he gets another season, he's the perfect antidote to anyone who says money buys success in football.

They've spent £648m on transfers since Ferguson left, I think Mourinho could take that above £1Bn and still fail to get near a title.

Really don't think they will sack him it will cost them £20m and they will wait for him to walk. They really should have realised what they had got themselves into when they celebrated a 0-0 at our place like they'd won the world cup!

We need a St Totteringham's day. Any suggestions for a suitable name?

Would love it. Hopefully you are right and he stays at least another year and spends another £150m on Basketball players.

Would set them back another few years.

Ray Parlour has just named a formidable United team. If they play this team in the "beauty and beast derby" I can see them winning comfortably.

Unfortunately there were 4 defenders , 4 midfield and 4 forwards. It was a scary strong team.

Oh he wont walk...he is to savvy in that respect. 2 things will happen -

1 - he makes it unbearable for them to continue with his services, using his usual tactics forcing his own move towards PSG

2 - they sack him, payoff made and he wins again and signs on at PSG and moans about the standards

What he didnt realise was that the club was in a mess prior to him arriving. He also didnt realise that even though he wanted the job, they didnt want him. He was a reactionary appointment to Pep turning up at our club.


Great to see what is going on at that place though : )

Even Ogden is in on the act now.

The air of discontent around Mourinho has been noticed within the club, however, and sources have spoken of not knowing which Mourinho will turn up at the Carrington training ground on a daily basis, whether it be the upbeat version or the moody one, prepared only to engage with his small group of assistants.

There is a view that Mourinho's demeanour is merely a reflection of his frustration at recent performances and results, with those prepared to observe the bigger picture pointing to United sitting second in the table and top of their Champions League group with a 100 percent record.


But the manager's outspoken comments about the club's supporters and thinly-veiled complaints about summer transfer dealings have not projected an image of a manager happy with his lot.​

They did the same with Moyes and Van Gaal as soon as the rags started looking bad. When is one of these journalists going to write about the upper echelons of the club and the continuous terrible decisions they’ve made post May 2013. That’s the real story here, but instead they manage to throw consecutive managers under the bus and the club comes out unblemished.
