Hazard should have taken that penalty.. Fuck Oscar, knew he'd miss.

What a pass from Willian and good finish by Costa! Hat trick for Costa come on!!!! Get Hazard on now!!

Oscar is so stupid! Fuck!!

Fuck we need a better 2nd half. Hazard needs to come on to win this game..

Took it well Costa!!

Ivanovic got beat twice in the space of 10mins.

Man Utd away fans singing Jose Mourinho while their losing 2-0 at Stoke. LOL..

WTF same formation and selections as Jose? Is it in fact Roman and Michael picking the team/formation all along???

A long but insightful article. Thanks for sharing..

If Hiddink wins the CL and finishes top 4 in the league he will get a two year contract extension otherwise as below: Simone> Chelsea Pep > Man City Allegri > Man Utd Mourinho> Real Ancelotti > Bayern Benitez > Juventus

I believe Jose will take the Man Utd job if offered to him without a doubt. I feel secretly he has always wanted that job and admired Alex Ferguson. However the club's board and owners will never give a manager that brings with him so much regular controversy and negative football to its global brand. He should take the Portuguese national team role tbh. Although his regular antics may suit the hysteria that is Real Madrid.

Refreshing...

With all the top managers having their difficult moments and getting the sack or just staying at a club 3 years max you have to respect Alex Ferguson for the success and longevity he had with Man Utd as much as I dislike his personality and club. Seriously will there ever me another manager that will stay at one club bringing success over the many team rebuilds he saw through with consistent success? I don't think is going to be one in today's dynamic modern game.

Emenalo probably just sits in front of his laptop with FM16 & Youtube scouting getting paid millions..

The more time I think about it I feel that the reason Jose lost the dressing room was due to his unshakable belief in his system and himself. Even when things were clearly not working he did the same thing over and over again. His was disillusioned by his massive ego where all the problems for the disastrous results were with everyone else but himself. Ultimately the last act was to accuse his players of betrayal which was proof of how out of touch and lost he became. I think his critics are right in that he is never going to be a long term manager or one to bring through youth. His football will always be rigid and defensive never allowing for anyone to question his philosophy and system.

If anyone disrespects Hiddink or Roman they will have to face the beast that is Drogba.

"Michael I can't bear to watch our crap football. Where is the beautiful attacking football I wanted?"

One far fetched scenario will be Hiddink wins us the CL thus qualifying automatically next season. We come back strong in the league impressing our fans, board and Roman. Hiddink is given another two years to rebuild for a new era bringing in a few youth into the first XI.

I think the Didier appointment is to keep the players in check. Players respect Drogba immensely and he can speak fluent english and french.

So much more energy and pace from the players today.

Hiddink is a great manager. I still remeber how he turned an amatuer South Korean national team into world beaters eventually losing to Germany in the semi finals of the world cup. He also took Australia into the knockout stages of the world cup losing to Italy. I have great respect and admiration for this man. He is a very good tactician who prepares his teams very well and put a great emphasis on their physical fitness. He is also able to get the best out of each player including youth by inspiring confidence and belief.

Shit lineup but this shows our squad really needs a major shakeup. Time for Hiddink to give our youngsters a chance to show their desire and energy. In summer time to move on the old, entitled and unmotivated pensioners.

I believe Holland will tell the squad 'Clear your minds today playing with conviction and belief. Do not fear to express yourselves as our quality as both individuals and team will show through in the end. Courtois Cesar -Zouma- Cahill- Rahman Ruben - Matic Willian Hazard Remy - Costa

I don't think Man Utd's hierarchy will want Jose except for Sir Alex pushing for him. Their owners will ultimately decide that hiring Jose will bring many negatives in terms of club image and style of football that they cannot risk for such a huge global brand. If Van Gaal does not deliver this season than they will pursue Pep to the very end..

Pep is the best for the current modern game. I'd like him to come and conduct a big cull of the squad. I also think he can bring through our young talent within his system and philosophy.
