The Mourinho Thread

The decision to sell KDB was unanimously cheered in this forum. You hypocrite.

No it most definitely wasn't. Lots of people were frustrated with Mourinho not giving the guy a fair chance and knew we had missed out on a wonderful player when he was sold, but at the same time admitted that with Mourinho in charge it was the only option that made sense because he clearly didn't rate De Bryune and keeping him was in nobody's best interest. Nobody in 2014 predicted Mourinho's sudden downfall and at the time it was pretty obvious that Jose was gonna be staying at least a couple more years and things were looking really positive for the team (which even resulted in a league title a year later) so there was absolutely no point holding onto De Bruyne when the choice was between keeping him and sacking Mourinho on the spot in 2014, or keeping Jose and selling KdB.

Decisions to sell the likes of Mata, KdB, Lukaku, Schürrle and Fliipe Luis were all controversial amongst the fans with most acknowledging their quality but at the same time having to make peace with the fact that Mourinho wanted them gone and in a battle between a single player and a pre-meltdown Mourinho the latter was always going to win.

...Just like when De Bruyne was pushed out because of Mourinho's stubbornness...

How do you get stubbornness out of this? Jose did not think KDB should be slected so he didn't select him. TSO may have been right in that decision, he may have been wrong, but are you suggesting that it is stubbornnes for a manager to pick the players he thinks are right for the team? Am I to assume that if you were the manager you wouldn't pick the players you believed were best for your side, but would pick the other ones instead so no one could think you were being stubborn?

Tell us you think Jose was wrong by all means but don't expect an easy ride if you just want to throw baseless accqusations at our former manager.

Hopefully Jose drills in only the defensive responsibilities to Pogba and turns him into the next Mikel / Oscar.

Just broke the €1 billion mark on money spent on transfers. It only took him 12 years and not a single academy product developed into at least a decent player.

Just sums the geezer up alienating one of your players just to win a poxy friendly.

I wish Mourinho only the best after what he's done for this club time and time again. I stand by my opinion that the club should have better kicked out some of the players, i can't condone their behaviour. So excuse me when i feel a little satisfaction.

I don't like the management, i don't like some players, mistreated the coach, but guess what i like the club, i'm still around, you can make of it whatever you want. Maybe for you i'm only a Jose fan, for others maybe not, but why are we talking about me, i stated my opinion and i'm continuing to do so as long as i like. It's about the opinion, not the person, just food for thought.

I think apart from the this story, where i'm biased af, i'm (for you) more bearable in other threads.
 

Cheers!

You know your very contradictory here. 

You always talk about the players mistreated the coach. But when the coach mistreats the players it's okay? 

Like he has done with Mata, Bastian, Casillas etc etc. 

But it's okay because the players are professional and getting big wages.....like if Mourinho is not in the same bracket....

Yeah you hold a big double standards my friend.

That's a myth, haven't you heard that he has developed 60 players?

Champions League 'empty' without Man United competing - Mourinho

'Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has said that his former club Chelsea have an advantage in the Premier League title race because they are not involved in any European competition, while adding that the Champions League is "empty" without the Red Devils in the mix.'

[Adnane 1,101]

So this is what it feels to hear his comments about other clubs. 

He really looks like a child doesn't he

Glad he's not our problem anymore.

He is really full of shit isn't he? I'm starting to be proud of ourselves as Chelsea fans to bear the embarrassments he caused for so many years.

He also shoved Januzaj in the under 21's and he was completely cut off from the first team according to reports.

Pretty sure Januzaj wasn't a part of the first team under Van Gaal neither.

[Alan Partridge 1,124]

I seem to remember him saying FFP was a joke (I agree) because teams like United benefited from it compared to other clubs. Then accused United and others of trying to buy the league. 

How much have United spent so far? 

If they don't win the title I am going to enjoy laughing at that hypocrite for some time.

Funny that Man U fans thought he would be the next Ronaldo and stuff.

These points have already been discussed in the past, not making the rounds.

A mate messaged me and i got it (today): has-been, methods outdated and not working anymore, tactics shit, football the worst, Martial leftback, Rashford just there to make up the numbers, cancer is finally gone, future meltdown for the redmen -go there you racist (without proof)..i could go on all day. That's the truth people wanna hear all the time. Also mate mentioned the constant attacks, mob always gets his way at the end. If you don't like it, leave, it really is that simple!  Happy day for some, i guess...anyway, you'll find your guy, good luck!
