I think you have to keep him out of it, move forward come what may, otherwise it could effect the incoming manager. Especially of Ferguson does well. Cycle begins again.

But I hope whoever the new boss is they are willing to take his advice on things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sotsira Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Well its no surprise the Moron has got himself sacked, you have only got to look at his record of being a 3 season manager throughout his career, or should I say 2 1/2 season. His consistency for getting the sack has to be commended, special one my ars.... Pogba will be throwing a party tonight along with Smalling & Jones and Lukaku and Martial (did I miss anyone out ?) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only record he should be noted for is spending $$$$$$$$ And I'm talking a lot of $$$$$$$$ before he can win anything. Put him in a mediocre club and then you'll see what a $hit manager he is, but he wouldn't take a job like tat cos he knows it himself, the 2 1/2 season big spender!

While I thought his track record deserved him more time, I applaud the board for being decisive. The way we are playing, things can only get better and am excited to see what the future will bring. Doing it now means that the new manager / caretaker will get time to assess the squad before the Jan transfer window, and hopefully build up a head of steam going into next year. Onwards and upwards ???? I said 2 weeks ago I thought Mourinho was engineering the sack and after Sundays selection debacle and his general demeanour it was obvious this could be a possibilty. A midfield of Matic and Fellaini, 2 tugboats trying to contain speed boats.Martial ,Pogba on the bench ,not a sign of 50,000 m+ quid Fred. I have never see a United side give the ball away as much as they did at the weekends game,it was quite soul destroying The only positive that could justify him not getting dismissed was the CL. In the crowd at Anfield was SAF and David Gill sitting together and a way away Ed Woodward and Sir Bobby Charlton. Their body language said it all Mourinho was soley a board appointment with the reasoning his record of winning trophies would attract investors and players. I would also suggest Mourinho's appalling behaviour ,results and publically criticising players was the primary reason they could not attract the new players they wanted over summer So a new era and Mourinho will most likely never coach in England again, no loss,good riddance The club obviously wants a complete overhaul to its squad its background staff, its whole structure ,it make take years. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much money did Porto spend before their CL win? How much did Inter spend compared to other teams around Europe when they won 3 titles in a row + the CL? Mourinho has won 25 major honours. What have you achieved that's remarkable in your life? The truth is, Mourinho is unfortunate to be someone gifted who was amazing at something, but now isn't quite as good as they used to be and can't find the magic again. Most people who post on this forum will only ever be average at something... tops. That's why they love it when someone extremely talented can't match the high standards which they set themselves. It's a very English thing to try and bring talented people down. The same thing happened with Rooney. Edited December 18, 2018 by RickG16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StevieH Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 he's had the biggest budget and chequebook in the league at every club he's been at, ricky lad. porto winning the champions league was an amazing achievement. everything since then is about par given what he's had to spend. until recently of course where he's bogeying all over the place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sotsira Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Talented manager's can stay in a job for longer than 2 1/2 seasons....... That should tell you a lot about what Mourinho stands for. I'd say he'd be really pleased with himself getting another pay off to leave a club again! He's a specialist at mugging football clubs off as far as I see.

He's a specialist at mugging football clubs off as far as I see. If you are a Chelsea, Inter or Porto fan he's probably given you some of the best days of your life. There is no mention of the pay off. I actually wouldn't be surprised if he waived it. He won't be happy at his failure at United, and I don't actually think the money would sweeten the blow. I'll always be fond of Mourinho and hope he does well at his next club (as long as they aren't in the Prem). If only to shut up people like you. The real mugs.
