    Not a United fan but I agree with you. I never thought he was "right" for the job there - the negative play is just appalling with the players you have. At the start of this season it was nearly a guarantee that you would score 4 goals. Then the fluke at Huddersfield towards the end of October and its like Mou decided attacking was no longer for him and it seems to be like he hasn't set the team up the same since.

    Everyone knows he can play attacking and set the team up to be relentless, has the players for it, but its like hes scared of his own success on this stage for some reason. He needs a mental coach or something I don't know its madness.

    I'm getting a bit tired of Mourinho but not necessarily because of the results, but more how his mood casts a shadow over any team he manages. I just want a manager who can put on a fucking smile when we score a goal. Not someone who looks like he's at a funeral for his whole family when the team scores a 3-0 goal.

    While im starting to have my doubts about Mourinho (still second in the league and in the champions league tho) especially with the constant boring play. It was hardly the first time a top team in the premier league gets knocked out by a championship team and it sure wont be the last.

    But..but..Pogba is amazing and makes Man United a fearsome attacking force?

    A good player, but that's it.
    Will never the reach Ballack / Vidal / Lampard levels. Real box to box midfielders.

    Shame we gave up on Vidal when he got injured a couple of years ago.

    They want "attacking football" poch and wenger could be available soon could grab them. Play attactive football and win the odd FA cup maybe.

    Funny how the players are void of any blame for not even showing up and acting like they were already through at 1-1. But no always the managers fault.

    Ok dear, I'll spell it out for you so its clear.

    I am still happy with how man utd is progressing. I dont fear the walls are falling in because City are gonna win the league in a possible record breaking year when any other year utd would be coming first. But you cant do much when a team is playing as well as they are and seem to get all the luck in the world and get 6min injury time when they need it without exception.

    And I prefer Joses style rather than wanting to replace him with someone like Klopp who might help us score more than 4 goals but then we're gonna start conceding because hes forgotten to put some decent defenders on the pitch.

    And people didnt give a shit about the league cup last year when we won it, its just something they can use to bash utd with now because we fell out to a lower level team who clearly wanted it more.

    I’m sorry but you really haven’t thought about what Rashford, Martial, Miki, could do with the freedom Klopp gives his team. Aside from Mane, Coutinho and Salah, which Liverpool players would you actually want ahead of a United player? None, especially not that back line. It pains me to say it, but Klopp plays better football, and we have the better players to do it. But that’s not how Mou wants to do it.

    It’s not that Klopp forgot to play decent defenders, Liverpool just don’t have the money to buy them, they’re a selling club. United have the decent defenders, and the best keeper in the world.

    For the third season in a row Swansea have fired their manager in December.

    Some tight fisted bastards will do anything to avoid sending christmas cards.

    If they can blow 40m on the Ox they can clearly buy a CB or two.

    The Ox is gonna score today aint he -.-

    Salah hat trick with the Ox scoring off the bench when the match is long over and hailed as the new Gerrard.
