Talk about out staying your welcome. Has he not been sacked yet?
The official website was literally the last place the news broke.for anything official like that it is
Fergie retiring was first on the official site for example
soon the caf will have to start hating the managers they were all drolling over.....Klopp and Pep...
Klopp was never a favorite of mine. He had some great seasons and could well be a good manager.
Pep is a great manager, but he have never been at a club who are not the best in the country. He did manage to get out of a bad period last year and that tells me that his the real deal.
Mourinho has been my favorite after SAF. For me, without SAF in the running, he is the best manager in the world. Chelsea are toxic. He would have been great again if given time. I would love to have him. Crossing fingers
I wanted Morinho the moment we found out Fergie was leaving. Heck he simply is the best manager on earth atm. The fact he is available when the wheels are coming off the van Gaal philosophy, makes me feel we have turned a big corner. The blip of Moyes and van Gaal will be behind us soon.
think the club has been very deliberate this time around after the news leaks with Moyes.
on the bigger picture, it was never going to be easy replacing the greatest football manager of all time. In the greater scheme of things Moyes and van Gaal will merely be a blip in our history.
I feel sure it will be Mourinho and Giggs after him.
whatever some of us feel about their personalities, I feel this will be good for the club.
Nah that was well reported the day before.
People just didn't want to believe it so were calling it bullshit.
it'd had broken In all the papers and media before hand!

True enough. It's a highly unpredictable business and impossible to put a structure in place which guarantees anything. But ever since Fergie retired we seem to have just carried on with the same basic set-up: A manager in charge who is supposed to run the shop - and Woody in that role of his.
I think he, Woody, needs someone in a more active and permanent role on the footballing side - besides the manager. Gill never needed that, because he had Fergie. But we won't get another Fergie, that's a pipe dream at best.
I wouldn't be opposed at all to what you suggest - a more hands-on board of football people (directors, board members) to interact with both Woody and the manager. A director of football is another - obvious - possibility. At any rate, something should be done. We need a rethink, a new structure in one way or the other.
Let the money men do their job - give Woody some proper help with the football side. I don't see the Glazers as being positively opposed to this, actually. But the initiative has to come from somewhere. I have no idea how Woody regards matters: If he were to suggest a restructuring to the Glazers, they'd probably go along with it. But is he likely to do that?
The Giggs part certainly won't, be hey let's just get Jose in first and hope Giggs fecks off.
sorry what I meant was the official statement came through on the website first when it was officially confirmed.
Yes there was loads of rumours from the previous night
Steve Round says Giggs should be given the job. He has convinced me.
Yep, why would we want a legendary player who loves United hanging around!

We know the real reason he is hanging around, and it isn't out of the goodness of his heart.

yeah, no shitwell obviously the official confirmation comes from the club
Wash your mouth out.Man City supporter?
Because he's now been part of two unsuccessful management teams that have both failed miserably?
If they all get the sack, why shouldn't he?
He's here till the new year, guessing they figured Christmas week was not the best for a change.Talk about out staying your welcome. Has he not been sacked yet?
Maybe the new man will want him thereBecause he's now been part of two unsuccessful management teams that have both failed miserably?

Read the 'quotes' in the article. See why I have such disdain for Metro/Express/Sunday World? Özil said nothing about United.http://metro.co.uk/2015/12/21/jose-...nited-admits-arsenal-ace-mesut-ozil-5578713/?
Has Ozil fallen out with Wenger?
wonder what odds a bookie would give me for Mourinho taking over and winning the league THIS season with United?
Assistant manager's Union. Probably thought he had a chance at the United job when Moyes got the bootSteve Round says Giggs should be given the job. He has convinced me.
I was hoping it'd be longer odds than thatWe're about 20/1 to win the league and Jose is 4/11 to be our next manager.. So I'd guess around 30/1...
