"Hey but it's not his fault team plays like shit"
When you see the likes of Fred and Pereira, as well as Fellaini and Pogba perform well, its' clear that the abilities of the squad can be maximized to make them play better from an attacking respect. Mourinho is not getting the best out of the squad.
Still on the fence. I will give him this stretch of games till the next international break. If there is no improvement, let him and go and get in a new manager for crisis management in January.

I would take Rafa at this point no joke
Title race pretty much over, third year in a row. He's not a serious man. He didn't even shout at them to press the rival in the end. He took Fred off the pitch, our best player and of course we don't even have a backup striker to Lukaku. Why would Manchester United need one, huh ?
Long balls to Fellaini during Moyes, long balls to Fellaini during LvG and same shit during Mourinho.
Woodward is a parasite in his own way and even Mourinho doesn't have balls to change things and that's his 3rd season here.

Spoiled goods.
This season is going to get worse, not better.
We'll be lucky to finish 5th at the rate we're going.

I don't feel like today is the day.
Our style of play will always bring games like this were we don't win or look good. We rely a lot on individual ability rather than team play and if someone isn't on form, things start to fall apart and look disjointed.
I still want him gone but I actually didn't think we played badly today and we were set up fine both formation-wise and tactically, we dropped points because the front 3 were utter garbage, just no ideas and sloppy as feck, and Valencia is finished so the entire right side was dead as so often it is.
I just want Mourinho gone. Really sick of his philosophy of favouring grit, workrate and physicality over actual football qualities. When you have the likes of Fellaini, Lingard, Lukaku, Valencia, there is no way we will dominate proceedings. I mean ffs, we are constantly overplayed by teams from the league to domestic and continental minnows. At this juncture, i take Zidane and forfeit this season to prepare for a better future.
Does this affect BREXIT?
Most teams we face almost always look more cohesive as a unit - even if we end up winning a given match.
I'm more than aware he bought them but when they don't score we just sack the manager? So Allegri should be sacked because he bought Ronaldo and he didn't score for a while? Your logic is embarrassing. Name one manager who could come in now and do a better job. We had bags of chances and the finishing wasn't good enough today, Wolves scored against the run of play and we couldn't break them down after that. Blame the manager all you want but this won't improve under anyone else.
It's you who needs locking
Sorry, I'm just mad after the result.
Both threads are just silos where people go to have their opinion confirmed.Apparently it is Mourinho's fault Lukaku couldn't hit a barn door today and took 3 and a half hours to decide whether to shoot.
Well he bought the guy didn't he? Set a new British transfer record as well.
You can play this game with anyone. "Sack Moyes because the players can't string 3 passes together and look like they don't give a toss? How is that his fault?"
Wouldn't really blame Jose today, made positive subs, attacking tactics, we didn't deliver on the pitch.
What were your expectations before the season if i may ask?
I won't even waste my time when this is the counter argument you've had to resort to.
Mourinho have to go really.... hope the fans start to boo him next time round in old trafford
Bring back David Moyes
Who bought Lukaku ?
It's about as strong as the argument you made for sacking Mourinho. Lukaku misses and open net = sack the manager
I won't even waste my time when this is the counter argument you've had to resort to.
Who controls Lukaku's feet?
Coach some attacking play and feed Lukaku and he will score. Sarri is making it work with Morata or Giroud up top, and Lukaku is no better or no worse than those two.
My expectations were to challenge for the title, especially considering we're 3 years into Mourinho's tenure.
Not nearly good enough, and I should have known better. I'm nearly ready to write this season off mentally, as I don't think it's going to get better over night.
Aye because my sole reason for wanting Mourinho sacked is based on today's performance. Good one.
Actually feel the same, kinda enjoyed what I was seeing overall as a whole the things they were trying, the freedom, the desire and seeing us taking a game to people at times instead of the dross over the last 2 years. It’s clearly not perfect and still needs a lot of work but since the Spurs game it’s like Jose has been labotamised and what we are seeing now goes against everything Jose.
Noticed last week he had what looks like cigarette burns on his wrist. Self inflicted pain therapy trying to kick the habit of Jose defensive football or has an over eager CAF member done the unthinkable and tortured the poor man in to playing this way.
Let’s sack Mourinho. We’re so far behind Liverpool and City, it’s quite unbelievable really. Not sure what I’d prefer out of this and LvG in his worst season. Dreadful football, dreadful attacking play, lack of goals, boring football.
The good news is the players are trying and playing for him.
The bad news is they're just so massively incompetent and whatever he's doing in training isn't working and in the build up to games isn't working. I don't want him out but I don't think he'll survive christmas to be honest.

You apparently believe the manager is completely absolved as to how the squad perform ? Interesting.
brutal to watch, brutal results
Eh? That's not a prediction based in reality then. If you thought we'd be fighting for the title, bless your soul. Of course we should be, what with the money spent and the time Jose has been here, but it wasn't going to happen, we're way behind our rivals.
People are just blaming jose for the sake of it now.
The Sacred Order of the Stonecutters, apparently.
Didn't see you bleating in here on Wednesday night.
He's not good enough for a job like this. When it comes to taking a ready made potential trophy winning team to actual real life trophy winning team, he has possibly still got the ability to succeed. But for Manchester United, he's the wrong man and the sooner we get rid the better.
We look pathetically coached. No fire. No excitement. No flair. Nothing. Just a drab fecking boring pile of wank that sometimes does enough to win football matches.

Last few months of Mourinho at United, I'm ready to be patient. Not long to go now
Who's bought these players missing these open goals or defending like oafs? Ah I forgot, it's Woodward.
Why has he failed to make a cohesive unit with a big budget after 2+ seasons? Why do most teams we play against look more cohesive than ours?
This has been brewing since the beginning of last season, it's no kneejerk for alot of posters.
