I liked this post on the MEN

I think Roy Keane  should take over.  He can start off by head butting Pogba to put him in his place.  

I think Roy Keane  should take over.  He can start off by head butting Pogba to put him in his place.  Or get Ole, Giggs or Stam.  Let's get a true United Legend taking over to get the fans behind the team again.

What is it, the worst premier league start for the club in 28 years, he pissed hundreds of millions up the wall, created a toxic dressing room and then he gets a 24m pay off. I doubt he gives a toss.  Its a funny old game.......

A journalist on Sky this morning said Mourinho's hotel bill was 500,000 quid.  I presume he was staying these past two and a half years at the Lowry?

Thing is, you say he's left them in a better situation than they were when he arrived yet they have made the worst start to a season in 26 0r 28 years.  So, without even bothering to comment about the wasted transfer millions, how can they be in a better state?   Surely it's the worst in all those years?  Nineteen points behind City, eleven off top four and little or no chance or top four qualification this season.

 

I know and accept you disagree with me, but why?  He's left them in a shambles!

What is it with you and this repetitive nonsense. It's sounding more like sour grapes every time you write it. We have NOT breached nor been accused of breaching any FA rules.

We cannot get banned from the Premier League. We have not broken nor been accused of breaking any Premier League rules. What planet are you residing on? Are you making these rules up in your head?

Should Roberto Martinez be on that list? His stock rose at the World Cup and he has consistently had Lukaku producing his best. He lives in the area, so no homesickness issues and has always been commited to playing attacking football. Defending was always a weakness but he seems to have improved whilst managing Belgium.

We would be a different side if we could just get Pogba firing on all four, week in week out.

 

IMO the only way to do this is to appoint a young, black, French manager who has a world class reputation as a player.

 

Only problem is, would the fans accept a former Arsenal great?

Yeah Viera with Roy Keane as his assistant, those two should get Pogba up and playing!

Is Viera a manager? Try again.

 

If keane came any where near the club, Pogba would put his transfer request in the same day.

555 My bad.

 

I was thinking more of Terry Henry. Did a good job as Martini's assistant at Belgium, now at Monaco.

seen monaco's results this season? the thierry henry effect has not been a positive one.

 

united are clearly lining up pochettino and have sacked mourinho now because of the results, transfers and general atmosphere debacle but also because it'll take them 6 months of negotiating and legal wrangling to get pochettino from spurs. would be great if spurs could resist them and if pochettino wanted to remain at spurs but i don't see it happening sadly.

Vierra hasn't got Balotelli playing, or anyone else.

Henry has only been at Monaco 5 minutes. He is not responsible for the mess they are in. Keeping them up will be a success.

I tend to agree.  He's the obvious choice and tailor made for getting them back to how they used to be.

 

Woodward needs to get it right this time.  Moyes, van Gaal and Mourinho were all poor choices in their own particular ways but Pochettino ticks all the boxes.

 

However, i'm still clinging to Nev's theory of a Zidane/Cantona team though!!

Yes, I suppose they could be suckered back into their class of '92 lovefest thingy i suppose and make yet another ridiculous appointment!

Our (City and Liverpool) biggest nightmare would be Poch at United and given financial backing.
