Jose Mourinho is boss

Jose is looking like a seriously dated manager, having said that, I've got no idea how that Ed Woodward bloke is still in charge of football related matters at United.

The recruitment, mainly the return for investment, that United have yielded under his stewardship is eye watering. When you look at their outlay since Sir Alex Ferguson retired and their league placings in that time, it surely has to be the worst return for an investment ever in football history. The standard of player they have now is dreadful and the book stops with Woodward.

I can see United going all out for DoF now, let's just hope a certain Marcel doesn't feature in any of their conversations.

love or hate him, he knows how to win.

I would have him here tomorrow.

Look at the state of Man Utd just two years ago. He knows how to build a side that doesn't fear anyone.

You run through a brick wall for him or you get sold.

I prefer Guardiola's style of football but admire Jose Mourinho more. What he did with Porto and Inter was phenomenal really.

The media darlings are currently that scruffy idiot across the park and Pochetinno. Neither have won anything in England.

Mourinho silencing his critics yet again.

Man Utd looking good for runners up in the league which is huge progress considering where they were under the Chosen One.

Oh boy. This is glorious.
 
If I was JM I'd take my millions home to Portugal and stand for president or something.
He's had a great career as a manager but he's finished.

It’s hard to argue against the idea that the game seems to be evolving whilst perhaps he doesn’t , the top sides don’t seem to be playing the way his sides do. That said I suppose he finished second last year and has won a couple of cups , I still think early at clubs he’s got a trophy in him but long term it does seem the same old story .

I know, and they were all there before he signed and were rubbish that season. They have only lost Ronaldo of that lot this summer and have been terrible so far this season.

Zidane made that squad do something that noone else has done in the modern era, and only one other club has ever done in the history of the European Cup (and that was 42 years ago). Yet somehow this is less of an achievement than winning nothing with Spurs is?
 
Two trophies and their highest league finish since Ferguson. Took a horrific squad and added the only genuine quality they have to it. Players threw him under a bus though.

What I find even more bizarre is this third season syndrome he has is so real, isn't this the 4th time now that he's he's been sacked either at the end or during his third season at a club. It's beyond ridiculous now and it is surely not a coincidence.

I don't want to think of him as a money grabber but when you read that he may be walking away with £22m today just for being sacked, maybe he designs his own train wrecks for a quick payday?

Truly bizarre whatever way you look at it. I can only see a completely desperate club looking for a quick fix hiring him in England again.

I've said it before but I genuinely don't feel that he has either the love or passion for the game, like he once did. The style of play he adopts is obviously part of it.

However, you just need to look at how in the mainstay the players loved him during his early years, while now they don't. Maybe that spark has now gone?
