Mourinho to United in the summer, but Wooward wants LvG to see out his contract.

Whether it's true or not, we can't just wait and hope whoever we want is still available in May.Why wait until the summer, kind of undermines the current manager?
Good post. I agree.I'm pretty sure the rumors are 100% accurate.
You have to look at it logically. United are not being run as sloppily as some people have been suggesting here over the past few weeks. The club has simply not made progress over the last two years, although I do believe LVG would have turned it around eventually, as he is an excellent coach. But seeing as he's intending to retire next year anyway, it's not as if they can rely on him for long anyway. And so preparations will have been made to replace Van Gaal, but there's no need to fire the entire coaching staff mid season. Better to keep things settled as they are and hope that VG can dig deep into his experience and push us into the top 4. United still need to be seen as a club that doesn't panic, and treats people with integrity. I can't think of many managers who have such a strong character as Mourinho, and he seems ready to take the challenge on. His egocentric desire to be regarded as the savior of a massive club like United makes the current situation tailor made for him.
Not only do I think Mourinho will take over at the end of the season, but I think he's already looking at players, and this is probably where the rumors have been leaked in Italy. Mourinho and Mendes are eyeing up players.
Could be wrong, but this is where my money is.
post tweets?Lads it's not true, the same company that did that Rex Secco to Arsenal bs in the summer are at it again with Jose. I follow the companies CEO on Twitter and he is tweeting about setting off all the rumours.
Yeah, I agree with the gist of this. I hope that we do get Mourinho at the end of the season, it feels right to meI'm pretty sure the rumors are 100% accurate.

What exactly are you saying? You think LVG is going or seeing out his contract? lolWe might have wanted Pep? We'll never know but I think it's better in someways to hire afterwards, as a response as opposed to someone being responded too. So us calling for LVG may have been wrong to do so for now. I think LVG is a lucky man in some respects, that no one situation was completely ideal. I agree that Joses probably already got the job, but I think we don't want to play our hand just yet. It seems to me typical of City to announce it early. I think we don't want to sack LVG. I think we want to give them every chance to win trophies here but ultimately, LVG will retire - hopefully a winner.
Twitter rumors maybe but I think it will be true anyway. I can't see him getting a new contract and few players will want to sign for a guy with only one year left.
...said Rhodri's wife.I'm not going to lie, he doesn't excite me but he's 100 times better than Giggs.
For what it's worth 90% of our summer transfer stories that turned out true broke abroad before they broke here.Interesting that they seem so sure of their source, wonder if the English press will pick up on it soon.
Yes i corrected my post after I checked up on it, yes well this was the Barcelona team that has been dubbed the best club team ever, So Mourinho short stint there was successful IMO, Mourinho has proven he is a winner in Spain, Portugal, Italy and in england thats 4 of the top 5 leagues in Europe including the most difficult the premiership, He has conquered Europe with Inter and Porto, he is possibly the best Modern manager in football today and IMO Pep will only prove he is better by being successful in the premier league, Peps stint at Bayern should not even be considered an achievement IMO its a one horse race and would take a disaster to win nothing domestically with Bayern, He was amazing with Barcelona but again it was the best crop of players to ever play club football together and he didnt have to put many of them there...
I am Mourinho all the way, I think he is tailor made for Manchester United, his football is far from boring only short memories will suggest that, I hope to god he becomes our next manager his passion and success is what we want
Sweet sanity I can taste it from here....I'm pretty sure the rumors are 100% accurate.

Haha, imagine if they bought adjacent flats.I like the bit about Guardiola worried about having to deal with Mou being in same city, potentially as 'neighbour.'
Good enough source for meApparently COPE reporting this now. Jose to United in the Summer.
