You're probably right, but it's entirely possible that all we need is an effective manager. Guess we'll find out soon enough
Even with that team and Rojo next to Smalling i think we'd see an instant improvement just by changing the playing style. Obviously we'll need reinforcements too.
Is it? I'm not the one who's in such a rush to tell everybody in here just how far ahead of themselves they are.
You're entitled to your opinion, don't get me wrong, but do you genuinely still believe that the club hasn't made up its mind? Even now when it's the last day of our season.
We've seen what kind of positive reaction a good manager can have on a average squad like Klopp at Liverpool but for me the likes of Lingard, Carrick and Rooney (as a number 10) can and should all be improved upon during the summer.
I doubt that. The midfield has no creativity and Carrick now has no legs, while Lingard and Rooney are just awful.
I can see Schneiderlin returning to the level of performance ulat Southampton under Mourinho, he's just his kind of player, interesting to see what he makes of Herrera too, again he certainly has the aggressiveness and work rate Mourinho likes.
The sky is blue, the grass is green and water is wet.
Ballbag telling us what we all already know.
It is happening.
Howard Nurse: United are set to replace Ron Atkinson with the charismatic Alex Ferguson.

Who said anything about the club not having made up their mind? I said there's no verifiable evidence as yet, which is a totally different matter.
What's got two thumbs and is coming to fix United?
This guy!

You've said there's no 'verifiable evidence' about eleventy thousand times.
The only thing you can call verifiable evidence is an official announcement, at which point the speculation is over.

Moyes?
Yep, I think we'll see him star next season.
Can't believe there are people who still believe this won't happen. Jeez
Like Moyes, VG will be the last to find out?
And I dont the idea of keeping him for one more year. Cant see our options being better next year
Can we all agree if it does happen we will never turn on him and understand the first season won't be good as he tries to work out the squad? and we won't get bored of his defensive/winning style of football because im genuinely expecting a Mourinho out thread the day he signs, we got spoiled by fergie and for about the next generation we won't be able to accept another manager as our own. mourINiho.
You promise? I only ever believe the BBC nowadays, been burnt by everyone else including the once reliable Sky sports news. I really don't get the timing, surely woodward isn't tapping up Mourinho the day before the final, you'd think it was either done earlier in the week or would happen next week but on the eve of the game is strange.
Well, yes. So you're annoyed at me for saying something you already know to be true. If it annoys you so much, don't read my posts.
It's hard not to when it's every other post to be fair.
Don't exaggerate.
While no one can be certain whether Mou would get rid of Failini I have yet to recall a player of his style in his system. Usually Mou played on a defensive minded players who tend to be comfortable with the ball (ex Khedira. Matic and Zanetti) who would tend be played with a less defensive minded midfielder (but who can still defend) whose got more vision and talent (Xabi Alonso and Cambiasso). Occasionally he's gone to 4-3-3 with a DM (ex Matic, Makalele) and 2 attacking minded CM (Fabregas, Oscar, Lampard, Ballack). None of these players were known for being just good in air and in elbowing people
You did, not too long ago...
The club hasn't decided to let go of Van Gaal because City got a point off Swansea last Sunday. People can trot out that line all they like but it's not how a football club (not one like United) operates.
This has been in place for months and short of an official announcement on the United website I'm not sure how much more verifiable proof you want. A lot of reporters from various countries have put their name to this story, and they're not all extracts from the Daily Express either.
You post the same thing on every page. It's tiresome.
So is being stalked. And it's not every page.

On the 14th of May. A full week ago. 7 days. 43 pages ago.
Hey, I am not a LVG supporter. But under LVG, our home record has been one of the best of any club in the league.
Which is fine, of course, since I'm a guy on a forum who claims no insider knowledge and states clearly that I'm guessing based on the available information.
If you don't want your posts reading, do us all a favour and stop writing them.
Easier if you just block me. I'd be quite happy with that.
Mods don't block people, it makes keeping the forum tidy more difficult.
How reliable are AS? I recall them having a lot of misses in the summer transfer windows but can't remember which ones :S
