Plus Mourinho has an obsession with big tall strong fellas. They're all shite. Not one of them would get into any other team in the top six. It's a complete disaster.
Is there any manager available right now who is a fan of short players? Whoever it is, we should get him.:)
 
The 15 million figure has to be rubbish. Considering his track record of having meltdowns it would be crazy to think that the club does not have a reasonable get out clause in his contract.

The bigger issue is the club can't fire him and be seen to let Pogba win the battle between them.
Doesn't matter if we just get rid of Pogba later.
 
I can’t see it ending any other way! We give him more time and we risk the season being worth nothing, we get rid of him but who do we replace him with? There’s not exactly many quality managers out there.

I know... i have no clue.
How's SAF's health? :nervous:
 
All panic decisions following panic decisions regarding managerial appointments and transfers. Zero strategy.
I'm worried that whoever we appoint next might be considered a panic decision down the road.
 
100 percent back Mourinho until we can't qualify for the CL.
His comments about McTominay should tell you everything you need to know; It's the players letting him down constantly. Attitude.
 
Really seemed like the players bailed on him today.

Why Scott McTominay in defence? Where was Bailly?

I’m fed up watching Man Utd games through my fingers, knowing if the other team scores first, that’s it.

No pace in central midfield an no width.

Yeah so players will continue to let him down and McTominay can’t turn into Messi to get us over the line, duh. Not that his comments made any sense, just another in a long line of bullshit that some people still lap it up.
 
Mourinho has shown before that he can't arrest the decline when it happens. So why on earth would anyone want to stick with him?
 
Tried to be on his side as long as I could, but he needs to go, right now before further damage is done.

Take EW off any actual football related decisions when Mourinho goes too.
 
He's clearly done here.

Whether or not he deserves time, or whether or not it's the players that should go before him, is irrelevant.

This man is manager of arguable the biggest football institution of all time. He said it himself, no player is bigger than this club. No player can carry the team single-handedly the same as no player can burden it single-handedly. The manager is the leader. He takes responsibility. He's spent tons of money on players that he has no faith in or he is unable to develop. Players like Bailly, Lindelof etc are his signings. He only signed them recently. He can't sulk now looking at other players 'monster's' - he brought these dudes in and he's got them playing like shite on a stick.

Under Jose we have fallen further behind our rivals. If we keep him at the helm, what's our strategy? Where do we go from here? What do we expect him to do?

Football is a business, and in business if the person responsible for managing the performance of the team at the expense of the company is not seen to be doing a good job, is putting the business in jeopardy, then you get rid and try something else.

We're Manchester United for christ sake. This circus is spectacularly ridiculous and embarrassing.

He's got to go, this Pogba stuff is just a smokescreen for the much bigger issue, that side today looked rock bottom in terms of morale and spirit, it's way more than Pogba vs Mourinho at this point, that's just main event box office story for the media, the issue is much deeper and it comes from the negative atmosphere the manager has created around this club.
 
Ok i admit that this is situation which can't be repaired because there are not only results in question. So i looked into the future. History tells us that we don't sack managers lightly. So we will beat Valencia and Newcastle with which Jose will buy time. Then we will have streaks one win, one draw, one loss and repeat.
My opinion is that Jose will not be sacked before end of season. And if we catch 4th place or Fa cup, he will stay here for next season and sell all those "troublemakers"(Martial, Pogba, Bailly).
 
The club has let him down, there is no point keeping a manager you aren't going to back. He needs to leave and we need to get in an attacking coach
 
There is no way back for him now, he picked his tall workhorses and team was worse. He’s bought badly, hasnt tried to establish a pattern of play and can’t motivate the players. Chance of him turning it round is zero and he was never a long term option anyway.

Spot on
 
Waiting for the people who voted "Not yet - needs more time to see if he can turn it around" to change their votes.
 
Loads of runours flying around that Jose will be sacked by the end of the week. Hope it's true.

Give Carrick interim job, McKenna as assistant, get a DoF in and carefully appoint a manager in the summer.

Good point - people seem to forget he was a never a long term option. There was always a chance he could be successful here but long term was a big ask. He's not that way inclined and neither is football anymore. Fact is he hasn't been successful, and shows no signs of developing himself or the club at all.

"Give it ter Cazza 'til th'end o't' season..."

Seriously though give it to anyone. Yes, even Giggseh.
