I actually quite like Roy.

 

Here's one... how about Southgate at the end of the season? ????

 

according to the times' man utd journalist:

 

- MUFC sack Mourinho
- Pochettino No.1 choice to take over next June (Simeone under consideration too)
- Utd want someone with knowledge of club to be caretaker. Blanc wants it.
- Mourinho sacked over style of play, rows with players, poor transfer record

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. 

 

In reality though the only mugs in all of this is MUFC who thought they would get back to glory by throwing BIG money at Mourinho.

Mate. You support Spurs. Pipe down. The fact is we will probably take your manager at the end of the season.

[Kadilo]

Just seen the ridiculous teeet Pogba has done after hearing the news about Mourinho. Of course he took it down straightaway. 

 

Whatever people think of Mourinho this clowns antics should result in him being dumped by whoever takes over. Whatever his talent he is not a team player and an immature, egotistical <deleted> for any squad.

The fact is your club is in a mess from the board room all the way down to Pogba's tweets.

 

If Poch wants to leave Spurs and go to United then so be it,

but would he want to step down a level in his managerial career?

He will never get a better opportunity to manage a huge club. Especially at a time where he can literally start from scratch and build his team. 

 

To me it looks like a win win for him. They can’t get much worse, and the potential is huge. From a managers perspective and someone of his class I can’t see him not wanting this challenge. 

 

The sticking point will be

his buyout, which i can’t see United worrying about, and to move on from what he has built at Spurs but these type of jobs don’t come round that often.

We both know in the grand of scheme of things that's not true.

 

I think he would come to us. He's close to Fergie, and has had lunch etc with him in the past.  Now was his decision to befriend Fergie just to get some advice from the great man, or did he also think it could do his chances of getting United job in the future no harm? Tell yourself what you want.

I think he is saying what the fans want to hear. The club needs to get back to basics and get the discipline and attitude back to where it should be at a club of this size and history

oh i agree with him and think he's talked nothing but sense about united and mourinho. he's a united fan and he can see what needs to be done to get his club back on track. fair play to him.

What kind of gratitude is this. We've done you a big favour. It's thanks to us that your nightmare is over. 

[Rc2702]

So what's the goal next season? 

 

Championship winners and maybe a Leyland daf run?

400Million quid instead of some magic beans to strengthen the squad might persuade him

So it 's looking like Ole Gunnar Solskjaer with Phelan back as assistant.

 

The more I think about this, the more happy I am with it. Forget the fact he won us a European Cup, although it's nice. Since retiring Ole has done pretty much everything to get himself in this position, managed the reserves, went to Norway and was successful. The Scandinavians I know are closest to English in their mentality and the way they speak... Ole is pretty much a Mancunian! And let's not forget that he has managed Pogba before in the reserves. I'd be really happy with this....

He sailed them straight down. 

 

I think the appointment would be a good one providing it is a temporary one which they endure and do not start bricking it when things don't go so well. Top half Finnish with a temporary boss is ok providing you get pochetino at the end of it. Failing that keep an eye on pellegrini.
