The confidence coming out from the Liverpool camp is mind boggling, anyone who has been following either team will attest form goes out of the window. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typical Mourinho tactic for shifting the focus away from the performance against Liverpool. Journo's are now only talking about him going to PSG instead of the match.

Mourinho is just trying to negotiate himself as good a deal as he can. 2 cups in his first season is a good basis to start from. He won't go to PSG; he'll be in Neymar's shadow.

Mourinho has been playing these mind games for season after season.For real football followers surely everyone has woken up to it by now. For journos they have to fill space and Mourinho is simple a great source of copy for them.No one seems to talk about the games its alll about whats happening off the field.

Sparkles Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 Shaw had another 90 mins in the reserves last Monday, I think it was, and this weekend is the perfect time to give him a run and, if not it would appear he's not wanted by Mourinho. Lindelof showed better form last night although he's another one thats hardly been seen. Young striker James Wilson hopefully will go out on loan in January another young casualty coming back after months of rehabilitation. One of my close friends, now a retired physio, still belives young players, that are still in a growth spurt, are victims of too much stress on their bodies before the body is stable.He quotes Danny Wellbeck as the perfect example.I think he may well be right.I well remember Michael Owen saying the same thing.too many games, too quickly in his case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or 15m per annum salary, 300m on players and only 6th place in the league. He's a proven winner, that can't be denied, but i find his style of football negative and dull and of course he's a horrid little <deleted> too. My point being, he's paid quite enough, certainly enough to have had the balls to go to Anfield to play a Liverpool side with a suspect defense and have a go at trying to win rather than turning up in total negativity.

I was referring to the 29 mins at the Bernabeu!! It is rather unfair not to mention the League cup and Europa league which of course United won. However i wonder how the season would be reviewed had Ajax won. That 15m salary, 300m spent and 6th place would reflect very differently. Yes its ifs and buts but i still think its a strong enough argument to suggest he's paid quite enough and with the likes of Ancelotti available next season Mourinho has work still to do for a new contract.

The best United side since Ferguson’s reign you’d think would of had a go at a team there for the taking.

Sparkles Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 United's display on the weekend was abysmal.A wet and windy stadium packed to the rafters with passionate home fans and after 10 minutes you could see what was coming. Martials petulant behaviour showed he, for one, wasnt up for it and he could well could have been replaced well before half time. Mata and Herrara were bullied off the ball time and time again and I never thought I would say United missed Fellaini's physical prescence. Without him and Pogba's muscle the midfields combatative prescence was invisible. Matic cant do it all by himself Herrara was totally right after the game in what he said, a very honest assessment. I never take any notice of Mourinho post match he has his own agenda Mourinho says he wont use injuries as an excuse but 8 players geting treatment must come into the equation .They are once again top of Physio Rooms table of wounded. Its been a relatively easy draw on paper so far for United.Swansea away during the week and Spurs next weekend is going to be pivotal moment in their season. CL progress is almsot assured but unless there is a turn around they will be sliding down the PL league table. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is an irony over the injury situation because as you say its a very legitimate point to pull up. Eight players sidelined going into a busy stage of the season is worrying and what is sorely need in such circumstances is a lot of hard graft.

smedly Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 I find it hilarious that those attached to lesser performing teams lower in the table jump in here and attempt to stick the boot in because manu has lost one game, Mourinho is a season behind most of the (contending) others when it comes to team building so "still" running 2nd is quite an achievement. In this particular match the ref ignored some hard careless challenges that many other refs would not have tolerated, Pulling - Pushing - Charging with no attempt on the ball, that sort of football might be ok in the lower divisions - it should not be tolerated in EPL 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
