This squad need bulking out, Jose will not want such a thin squad. He is the sort who wants to go for everything.
He keeps a pretty small squad himself.
The Chelsea team he won the league with year before last had very few players starting, didn't it?

Spanish radio confirming and saying that Mourinho wants a "profound remodelling" of the squad. Buckle up for a crazy transfer window.
Not again! We don't need a profound remodelling.

I suppose the usual will happen. He completely change the squad, all our faves will be sold. Then after 2 years the players will turn against him....happened twice at Chelsea and things weren't good at Real in his 3rd year. Then he'll be sacked. He never seems to last long at a club so enjoy it the first year.

Not my choice of manager for United.

I remember seeing that months ago, and how we were never sure that if it was actually LVG and Jose.
Guess they approached Jose ages ago, and probably knew that Pep was going to Citeh?
Well, the club never rubbished the rumours. That was the biggest hint

Can't see him wanting to sell the likes of Shaw, De Gea, Martial and Rashford.

If it was Mourinho's decision to do that, then that's absolutely disgusting. So much for being friends.
If it was Mendes, I'd expect him to do that kind of thing.

To be expected. Mourinho and his people are classless dicks.

I don't like VG as much as the next person, but atleast let him enjoy the cup win. There's plenty of time tomorrow to discuss the future.

I'm very happy. LVG goes out with an FA Cup win and we get who we should have brought in years ago. Pretty shitty way of doing it though straight after our first trophy in 3 years. Would have been nice for it not to get overshadowed.

It won't come as a shock to LVG, it's not like we're going to sack him out of the blue

I'm trying to decide if that's classless from Mendes or brilliant as it allows me to enjoy the FA Cup win even more wholeheartedly. Great send off.

Arsenal matches won't be tasty though. It would be job done as usual during the end of Fergie's tenure, in addition to Mourinho mocking Wenger in the process.
How is that not tasty? Delicious, even.

Yup, absolutely poor. But brace yourselves, this is likely to become the norm now.

Anyway, even if he knew it's utterly classless to leak this today and before his press conference. This is the sort of thing we ridicule and shame other clubs.
Yeah but United can't control other camps leaking information. Most likely it came from the Mendes camp.

i.e Mendes, our club's favourite person to deal with?

Be funny if the club pulled out now cause they're pissed with Mendes for leaking it.

Well it is mendes and Mourinho. What do you guys expect?

None of them have stellar reputation for being classy. In fact, opposite.
