Italian journalist Ginaluca Di Marzio says Manchester United have been in touch with Jose Mourinho and he's thinking about it.

Almost positive that the Di Marzio thing is made up.

But yeah, no chance. As usual, the United fans think they're entitled an preordained to get whatever they want. They think "if we want him, we'll get him."

Di Marzio did said that United want Jose and already contaced Jorge Mendes, but he didnt say "he's thinking about it".

No way Jose would do that to Chelsea.

[Matterz 67]

Hahahaha, what would happen to Mata if Jose did go to Utd?

Jose ain't going anywhere he is one of us!

[Pizy 18,481]

If by any chance José did take that job it would bring me REALLY close to giving up on watching football. That would be the ultimate betrayal. He wouldn't shit on the supporters like that though.

[Jype 6,398]

Why would he go there now?

With their current players it's far from being a Mourinho kind of team and they don't even have CL next season. Maybe he'd think about it in a few years after he's had a few seasons with us and Van Gaal or someone else has repaired the damage done by Moyes but no fucking way would he join them this summer. Keep dreaming United fans.

[LAM09 6,821]

I can't see Jose going anywhere. He is Chelsea through and through.

[Special Juan 27,482]

Ed Woodward and The Glazers are enough for anyone to knock the job back.

[Pizy 18,481]

I'm sure it would be appealing to him at least a little bit because their ownership would be so desperate to return to the top that they'd probably let José spend £200m to totally strip and rebuild the side.

Thing is, he's got a nearly complete "Mourinho" side here already and is only 2-3 players away. No way can I see him going there at any point during his current contract. Their only shot was last summer and they've missed it.

[Special Juan 27,482]

Can't believe it's even been discussed.

[haranr 485]

He could have joined in the summer but he didn't. Why now lol????!?!

[Pizy 18,481]

Can't believe it's even been discussed.

You can be sure that at least once per week until their next manager is appointed there will be journalists saying how sad he is and how glum he looks and we'll hear that bullshit story about how he was in tears that he didn't get the job.

If José blinks twice in quick succession it's a sign that he desperately wants the job. If he goes a day without shaving and has a bit of stubble in his next press conference we'll see people commenting on how he looks "haggard and tired" and how he's depressed about settling for his 2nd option Chelsea.

What i find funny is United fans didn't want Mourinho because off his style off play, yet are wanking themselves off at the prospect off getting Klopp or Simeone, who play the exact same fast paced counter attacking football Jose played at Madrid and is implementing here.

I think that's because Klopp and Simeone's teams have cost so very little, so having one very successful and major style of play, a counter-attacking one, is understandable. But when you've got an expensive team like Real Madrid and to a lesser extent Chelsea you're expected to do much more than just defend and counter; and although they haven't really been expected to in their current roles, that's not to say that Klopp and Simeone can't implement a more attacking approach, one that Manchester United are famous for. In contrast, for Mourinho this does appear to be one of his weaknesses.

Its quite absymal and hilarious how some fellas are going gaga jux abot a single game after praising the manager for some period of eon after psg win...Man utd played shit for greater percentage of games last season but at the end of the day they win...why? RVP scored a hell of goals 4united that was crucial n at the end of the day they won d league...look at the amount of goals suarez n sturridge has scored this season and thats y they ar going 4d title...striker has been a very crucial n important aspect of d game especially in epl...so far Jose has done a fantastic job building and keeping defensive solidity...cos a team as pathetic infront of goals as ourz if we dont defend solidly n we kip conceding goals we might have been united v2.0 maybe in 5th or 6th position...Jose knows d mental strength of d team dats y he fashion d team on fast counter attacking playing style...our pivot was bad until the second coming of Matic...how do we play possession futball with that kind of pathetic pivot and we all know how important pivot position is to possession based style of play...Matic arrival improved us in that tremendously and we all know what another top centre midfielder ll bring to the team...dats how to build a solid possession base team...i can only blame Jose for not signing striker last summer and some few mistakes he has made cos he is a human...he has been sincere and honest to we fans and d whole world y we wont be competitive enuf this season...cos he knows we ar 3signings away from a complete team whc i believe he will sort in d coming transfer window...2nd in d epl and top 4 in europe c'mon guys dz guy ll rule europe...and remember he hasnt spent upto a year with these young squad...Jose is d reason y we ar stil where we are...if its anoda manager m afraid we our position would have been...we aint clinical infront of goal...THAT IS THE STORY OF OUR SEASON...

I had a thought kind of like a dream this morning while lying down to bed. Imagine this United manager seat gets really cursed and beginning with Moyes this season every "chosen one" selected just fails every time! Wouldn't it be so much fun?

[Fernando 6,496]

Something that pisses me of about Mourinho.....Why the fuck Torres?

Please spare us the horror!!!!!!!!
