I think you've nailed it. Yes indeed it's the only explanation.
Haven't you got the memo, Ravi? We don't want him.
Jose not only would get us back in the top 4 but it would be much MUCH easier to sign the star players that we need....assuming Woodward doesnt feck up the bids.
Some of us have no clue how lucky we are as a club to have someone like Jose wanting and waiting to manage us.
I've just told my dog to get out the kitchen but called him LVG by mistake.
Replacing the manager will mean, renewed confidence...especially if it is Morinho who is well respected.
The only replacements for players would be for long term injuries. At most one or two. The league is still so open. Top 4 would be easy. Perhaps even better.
Knowing our luck Pep will take the City job and Jose will be his Assistant telling us we missed the boat!
I am gobsmacked that he's not our manager yet.
If your wife sees that you are a dead man.
The only excuse for not hiring Mourinho would be a written contract with Pep. That's fantasy stuff, so the board is simply inept.
Lucky my girlfriend is 20 and not anything like that. I always fear though that is how everything will turn out in the end.
It is almost unexplainable...the only plausible explanation is that we have already signed Pep and dont want Giggs to tarnish is rep by being an interim manager...or something.
My gut tells me that Pep has already decided on city which would leave us right up shit creek next season and without a paddle.
Woodward, it's all Woodward. It's become apparent that he's the one who makes the decisions.

Even Liverpool are going to Wembley; we're going nowhere.
At this point, I'm almost anti-Pep. He doesn't fit the club's ethos in my opinion. He's a great manager, sure, but there's more to United than the notion of the United way. Everything great that's come out of Manchester has had a certain arrogance, a swagger that adds to its appeal. Jose embodies this quality more than Pep, I think.
I see what you did there
Maybe the club will buy Wembley. I mean, we might not actually win anything there, but at least we'll have possession of it.
feck me, this is depressing.
I'm a broken record now, but could have at least signed a few fecking players.
Maybe SAF don't like him either, despite what seemed to have been mutual respect?
Only palatable reason that LVG hasn't been given the heave ho is because there going to be a massive re-org which results in a Director of Football, which means we need to hire that person first before getting a replacement head coach.
I'm surprised Paddy went in with both boots, he's usually on board with the publicity/propaganda machine that is MUTV.
Outstanding
We're all broken records. Mind you, it's hard to play a new tune when our the guy who's supposed to fire the conductor is a spineless git.
Interesting point of view, I'd say Pep has arrogance and swagger but it isn't as unashamedly arrogant like Mourinho. The latter is basically, what you see is what you get wheres Pep seems to care alot about how he is perceived and comes across a tad deceptive at times.
If we asked Pep to manage and he is stringing us along then it is only common sense to go with the proven manager who actually wants the job...he will try harder and this will filter down to the players. I get the sense that Jose really wants this and I, in turn, want to give him a shot. He should have taken over after SAF left IMO.
Lets correct that mistake and get him on board and watch us get back in the top 4, some people here say we have a bad squad and I totally disagree...how do you explain Leicester being first?
How good is their squad?
there's a sea change in opinions and openness even at MUTV.....how do you defend the indefensible
Keane would be loving it
That's good to hear, the channel should be free to be critical of the club if it's to be a true channel for fans.
Attendance is higher than Barcelona, only dortmund are higher
Keane is the David Bowie of football. Ranting and raving on MUTV before it was cool
Like others have said, the failure of LVG to have been sacked yet points to possible progress with Guardiola. It's a risky strategy though and we will probably end up flat on our backsides.
It would make no sense to sack LVG if Giggs has no interest in the interim job and we have no interest in giving it him permanently. The issue then is who do you bring in in the interim. If as above we believe Pep will sign for us Mourinho is out of the question.
We all just have to accept this season is a write off, each game is going to be a struggle and look forward to the summer and next season with Pep, Neymar, Bale and Gaitan (inevitably).

I'm not sure Ferguson has much influence in all honesty. Everything seems to be pointing towards Woodward.
Lets be honest, half of the backing of Moyes was because he's a nice guy
Those 3 players will still leave us very short of pace upfront, and too dependent on Rooney. We would need a new striker and a new winger as well.
Would still like to see that video. Compare the squad then to the squad now... Keane had high standards.
True, although interestingly the articles saying our players don't like LvG's methods all say they like him personally, which surprised me.
LvG and Woodward out!
We certainly seem to lack a "Starman" at the moment!
