He'll have his excuse today saying if we'd scored the chances we'd created, but the fact we've created only 2 clear cut chances in 60 minutes is poor.

Hope he gets the sack finally. If he isnt sacked this weekend, i give up. He is begging for it
Bizarre prolonging this nonsense. The guy clearly only cares at this point to prove some imaginary point. Buys players, can’t train them, whines about everything else apart from looking at himself. Random point scoring, and infifghting. His trusted generals looks either shite or don’t give a feck. His biggest enemy Pogba looks to give the most feck ironically.
...that backline.
Winter transfer signings aside he may need to go soon. We also need to promote half of the U-19 squad and make sure Nicky Butt gets to lead the seniors, eh? Other than than I think Scholes wants Woodward out and so I second that. How can you not?
Since Mourinho told Pogba he will never be Captain again I cannot see how putting him in at CB isn't trying to win back France.
When he doesn't get what he wsnts, he burns the house down.
Compare him with Pochettino. Pochettino didn't even get a signing ffs!

The board will have reached impressively low depths if he isn’t gone after this farce.
I’ll lose complete faith in this club if Mourinho is still here after today. Just disgraceful.

If this finishes with a Newcastle win, and I can’t see any other result right now, I just can’t see Mourinho in charge of our next game. No matter what counter briefing the club has done.
He deserves it because he's shite in his job?
Pogba,Sanchez,Lukaku,Matic,Bailly,Lindelof,Fred,Dalot
Those are the signings Jose made at United ( please don't brand them as board signings, that's pathetic). Not commenting on Dalot and Fred as of now. If we consider rest of signings there is none that have actually made their mark at United.
Matic had a decent first 6 months. I don't know what he is doing now. He doesn't protect defense, loose balls easily, his passes are poor and his positioning too. It doesn't matter how he plays he always plays. Been telling this for a while, with him in the squad we will be always slow and Pogba or any other creative player wont be able to work well.
Pogba: Jose didn't have much idea how to use this guy and Pogba himself is not helping the case.
Lukaku: Never a target man but Jose keeps on using him as one. With the right type of service he will be a 30 goal striker but not the way Jose uses him. His first touch, passing and movement all have gone reverse after joining us.
Bailly and Lindelof : Jose always had the knack of finding the best CB but still smalling and Jones are better than these two. I'm yet to understand why he choose to get Lindelof in.
Sanchez: Nothing to say.
So six signings were none can be consider as a success and not using Fred this season, how can people still say things like board didn't back him ( Board is also covering themselves under glory but that's an entirely different issue).
Playing Scott McTominay as Defender just to prove his point, never dropping Lukaku after his countless atrocious display but bashing Martial/Rashford right after the final whistle, always preferring the height over flair, can't get the team any kind of attacking pattern, well can't get the team to any kind of patter : This are my issues with Jose and this are the things Jose should take care first and foremost.

Fergie would have been feeling the heat with results like this, never mind the time bomb that is Mourinho.
I don’t think any other club in Europe would keep their failing managers as long as we do.
Hard to believe Mourinho who is famous for building solid defenses has been so shambolic with defense building at Utd. Lindelof instead of Harry Maguire who was half the price. Baily looking awesome at the start then Jose ruining his confidence. Mocking Luke Shaw who would never be good enough who has since looked good enough.
It's like with Jose if unwilling to bow to his completely unrealistic and unfair demands then he just makes the place so toxic that you'll want to pay him his fortune ASAP so he can be on his way.

Yes, Jose Mourinho is 'shite' at managing football teams...
Sarcasm aside - he deserves it because Ed Woodward presented him with a contract in the middle of the previous season that extended Mourinho's contract and assured him of a big payout if he was sacked before that time.
If you want my opinion, Mourinho should go, but so should Ed Woodward - as he's done a woeful job of overseeing footballing matters at Man Utd.
You employ Mourinho for results and accept his defensive tactics because they shut out matches and win games.
We’ve got the worst of both worlds right now so I’m not sure what we are getting out of the deal.
I’d rather a young and naive coach throwing players forward and losing 6-4 than this.

Changed my vote, Mou is a genius.
Ironic that a player Jose can't stand may have saved his job for another week
He is going to stay another game at least isn’t he 
Mou's celebration of the 2-2 kinda reminded me of a certain Fulham game....
And it was a Pogba to Martial goal.

Don't get your hopes up guys, he won't be sacked next week.
Hmmm... boos in Old Trafford in response to a "Mourinho's Red Army" chant.
No coming back from that. At most, he might get a stay of execution for a few days if we win.

Matic has forgotten to play football this season.

Yep, remember how we were "back" according to Woodward after a 0-0 draw against 15/16 Chelsea at home under LvG?
Been to busy being a warrior.
Just look at Matic. Enough of signing old men.
So glad we didn't allow him to exchange Martial for Willian.

Martial has many faults, but he is better than Sanchez if motivated and coached properly. Mourinho persisting with Sanchez and ostracized Martial for so long being another case of bad management is evident today.
Now give this team a manager that wants to attack at 0-0 and not 2-0 down.
Same happened at Palace last season

New Era Gentlemen!
Jose masterclass !!!
Well, at least this proves that he can still get a reaction from players. He didn't lose them fully tbh.
Hopefully a nice final match (send off).
Delighted for the players though.

Proves that is not clearly the players fault - played better when the strings came out.
This.
Leave on a high note, Jose.
I hope he still goes.
Yup. We can dream. This surely means a stay of execution, though.
Announce the sacking after this game, and it will be a perfect evening.
Attack, attack, attack actually works.
