And cue the rag PR machine....

Dodgy agents.
Too expensive.
Didn't want him anyway.

Im not. Mourinho is finished and there was no way the board were going to give him a penny more to spend knowing full well he wont be around for much longer.

This is true, he'll engineer some way of getting sacked over the next several months.

Who the fuck on earth give him a contract extension.

We're going to hear that **** moan all the way to the next window and then he'll most probably carry on.
Just wish he would stay as long as possible .

For a Change I am liking Jose’s recent taunts on Liverpool....especially serial winners one

Serial winners. PMSL. The only way the rags would be serial winners is if they signed Kelloggs as a sponsor.

No use checking flight tracker. All the world-class megastars are flying in on their new stealth plane, the ’alexis jet’.
Apparently it cost a fortune to maintain, it needs constant attention, and it is almost entirely invisible to the human eye.

Then there’s the Pogba jet. Good for a quick turnaround.

Just had a quick look at Rag Cafe. Warms the cockles of my little heart it does. It’s dawned on most of them they’ve spent a load of money on utter shite who are playing for a manager that can’t get a tune out of them.

The thing is that what most of them don’t realise is that, for the first time in quite a few years, they hit their 4 main on-field performance targets as detailed in their accounts. These are the minimum ones they use to set their budget and are:

• A top three finish in the PL
• Getting to the last 16 in the CL
• Getting to the QF of both the FA & League cups.

Woody & the Glazers will be quite happy with that. The share price is doing OK and the money’s still rolling in. They don’t particularly care that the football is shit. They’ll be more worried about Jose’s possible payoff so then won’t be in any hurry to sack him. Be interesting to see their 2018 accounts in the next few months.

Is he still living in a Travel Lodge? That never sounded like a long-term thing, to me? Does he not have previous for bobbing off in year three, also?

Even without a new signing, their squad is very strong and a better manager would get far more out of them.

De Gea
Valencia Bailly Smalling Young
Fred Matic Pogba
Rashford Lukaku Sanchez

This is before you add the likes of Mata, Martial, Herrera etc.

I've no idea where this myth that they need a massive splurge has come from, they need better coaching which I hope they don't get for a very long time.

It’s because the eye-gouging twat loves his shiny new toys to play with.

Wasn't Bog Brush the last to put pen to paper when he signed his new contract? :D

 

[City Centurions]

We didn't lose Pogba or DeGea or Martial (who I personally rate) and that was very important to our season.

Has nobody told him the transfer window's not over yet?
