Mourinho knew the team's weaknesses. But goggly-eyed Eddy Woody wanted to show how smart he could be. If Mourinho leaves, we are in for yet another rebuild. Let's just call ourselves Liverpool now.

Because they’re not, ask Ed
Ftfy
Yeah but its Joses fault obviously.
Exactly, yes Jose hasn’t got the best out of the players but Ed has fecked us right up.
This result is just the end results from having no player improvement/developement over many years, no attacking play, having a CEO that thinks he is a football expert and refuses to sell players not wanted by the manager etc.
The club is rotten. Changing the manager is just a short fix. There is something fundamentaly wrong with how this club is governed. And as long as this stays the same we will never challange for the league title.Delighted with the result - thought we were not great in the first half but totally dominated the second half and were ruthless up front. Very happy.
It's over.
I have a lot of sympathy for Jose but it's clear the relationship is broken. It's doneI will NEVER understand why we fecked up our transfer window. We should have signed more players and we should have sold more. This is self inflicted.
Nothing in that i'm guessing .Just showing respect for the support
Not sure what planet you are onThe problem is NOT Mourinho.
It's fecking Woodward!
One can dream, eh?
Exactly this. That's what makes it unacceptable. I just don't get it. It really doesn't make sense to not build on last season .It send the wrong message to the fans. It's not like the team is untouchable and beyond strengthening. It tells us all he doesn't back Miurinho in which case what the feck is he doing in the dugout!!!!!?The Toxic One
My nephew was at the match. He just texted me that the match-going fans are behind Jose by and large and are blaming Woodward.
Shaw and Fred were good yeah but what does that matter? The rest were shite. Just because Lukaku was probably the worst doesn’t make it all his fault
Anyway, I’m not wasting my energy on defending anyone in red tonight. Was a fecking joke, again.The problem we have is that ED Woodward is the guy who decides who we sign, that has become evident. Jose said he feels more like a head coach. We need to get rid of that damn Woodward guy, he fecks up all of our transfer windows, he has no clue about football and did not sign any of the players that Jose asked for. He signed Fred, probably thought he would be cheap as he thought we already had Fred the Red. Then he signed a goalkeeper from Stoke and a young Portugeese defender. Guys here is the truth... United are now just a cash cow for some American Business men. The club is fecked, it will get even worse. Just have patience. Do not blame Jose, even though his football has been very dire. He has not been backed by the club, We now have 5 owners, all of them need their cash think about it ...M
Mourinho signed Lindelof.
You must hold the record in green smiley's used on this forum. But that's a way to communicate as well, I guess.
cnut
First half we were there for the taking.That reaction at the end from Jose spoke loads,he knows the situation is becoming untenable
If it were another top club it would likely be his goodbye but I doubt it
Battle of wills if you ask me; Woodward and Jose. Only going to be one winner there.
Think he just means we played quite well in spells and you could argue 3-0 was a bit flattering, even though Spurs deserved to win.
What, the bloke sat next to him is? It’s not as if match goers are the same type of fan, they all hold their own opinions through watching the same stuff as anyone else in the world.
I say get rid of both Woodward and Mourinho. Enough is enough.If it’s a choice of keeping Pogba or Jose, I’d keep Jose.Get Woodward out before we get relegated, the guy is a disaster. I dont give a shit how many tampon sponsors he gets.
Absolutely and predictably,Woodward's position is never seriously gonna be under threat until the money stops flowing in
Com'on now, that's as biased as it gets.
The back four that we had when Jose arrived was a ferguson back four, Valencia, Jones, smalling and young. and you call 6OM£ spent on two center back a lot ? it would be a lot for fecking West Ham, not for us. city, our main competitor spent that on Laporte alone, and he is warming their bench.
Pep spent almost 200 millions on Stones, Mendy and Walker when he already had Otamendi (40M£) from the previous season. when he wanted one more defender after spending 200M£, they got him Laporte for 67M£. and you're fecking telling us that 60 millions for two center backs is enough and you want Jose to be competitive with that shit !
The state and the hypocrisy of our fecking fans.This nonsense that it is about a poor transfer window is just that. Nonsense.
We were convincingly beaten by a side that bought NOBODY during the summer.
Yeah, but it’s also Uniteds scouts. The whole set since Fergie left has gone downhill.
I agree with that too.
And finished below us last season
Agree 120%IWho came out recently and said he vetoed Mourinhos signings? Google it, Woodward is the manager, Jose is the head coach. No wonder we are shit. Get Woodward out please.
My keyboard doesnt work, only mouse, so can only click on emotes, thats why. Now when you know the reason, stop being weirdo and count my emotes usage.Well that was a second half shit show. The blame can go around as much as it likes, but the only other plan we ever have and we always use when we're trailing is to put Fellaini on the pitch. Unlucky with some of our chances, and a collective collapse but I do think it all falls to Jose. The fact that he wasn't backed by Woodward is one thing, but not having any other outlet than using Fellaini when we're trailing is too obvious. Spurs did well to exploit our defensive errors but I really don't think lasting a bit more than 45 minutes is something to be proud of. I think Jose will be sacked, if it will be better or worse one cannot know, but anything other than this would do for me.
jose is the easy target. That's all it is.Because they’re not, ask Ed
Ftfy
Yeah but its Joses fault obviously.
Exactly, yes Jose hasn’t got the best out of the players but Ed has fecked us right up.Our problem has a name and it is called.. Ed Woodward.. We can do things in the transfer market that others can only dream about he said a couple of years ago.. so why is he sitting like a dummy while all other clubs are progressing?
Don't have to count them. They stand out quite a bit.- Status
