Sparkles Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Last night v Brighton, who packed their defence, we witnessed some of the best attacking ,creative movement we have seen all season. Their mistake was not building a 3-0 lead 2-0 is always dangerous and to Chris Hughton & Brighton's credit they never let up. Another bonus, apart from another 3 points, was Dalot showing he could play left back as well as right ,his link up play was excellent.If anyone would have told me Young at his advanced age would be a shining light at RB I would have questioned their sanity. The dilemma now is what competition to prioritise, other results in the league are not helping surely top 4 has to be number one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that going and doing interviews sounding bitter will do him no good. He needs to wish United luck, go on a long holiday, and then plan his next move. I think there is a lot of frustration in him. Geniuses can often struggle that normal people (in this case the English fans + media) don't see things with the same brilliant mind as them. In this case of course it went tits up, but he probably feels that he was misunderstood. He claims he has turned down 3 offers already. I’m not sure if he’s including the Macclesfield job. https://apple.news/A7T63gSkgR5mtmrbzf_2skQ He has a point about some of these new snowflakes In the modern game.

Bredbury Blue Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 9 hours ago, carmine said: He seems to be loathed at every club he's managed, with the exception of United. All the Inited fans i know just consider he did a lousy job and that be the end of it. Chelsea fans all acknowledge the great years they had under him but most quite understandably detest him for the way he ripped things apart in forcing his exit a couple of years ago. His treatment of the female doctor told you all you needed to know about the character of the guy! At Real Madrid most of the squad loathed him and created a "him or us" situation to force Perez's hand. His style of football is a relic from a bygone age and you can only see United improving and moving forward now he's gone. I think it says a lot that fans of United's direct rivals were desperate for Jose to be given more time..... But lots of top teams employ him. He'll be back next season with a 'name' club i have no doubt. I think the Premier is more interesting with him in it and i don't have much of a problem with him. His record speaks for itself!

Bredbury Blue Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 I think there is some truth in Mourinho's comments (board didn't back him in the summer to buy the CB needed) but a lot of bullshit as well - we know his tactics to always deflect by creating a stir - he should put his side of the story across but he should also accept some of the blame (he never will of course).

Bredbury Blue Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Could someone post the full Mourinho BEin interview - love to see it. So far i've only seen his comments on Kloppity being given time while winning nothing for 3.5 years (his words i think) at liverpool which rings true.

RickG16 Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Just now, mrbojangles said: Most of them send their kids to the City academy anyway. As an aside. Why didn’t they pump their money into FC United of Manchester? FCUM was basically a reactionary club which stemmed from discontent with the Glazers. The Class of 92 don't want to be seen as siding against the club. FCUM now down near the bottom of National League North. Can't see them progressing any further. Anyone who attended a game involving them can testify that their fans are nothing short of disgraceful. Many of them are hooligans who are banned from watching United. They take advantage of the lower security at non league grounds to smuggle in cheap lager which they can't handle. And in the case of an Alty game, grown drunk men kicking off on young teenagers. Not welcomed and not respected in non league football. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
