LAB 1,030 Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 Van Gaal is practically Mourinho's (and Pep's) father so yes, it should be. It's going to be a great tactical match up; if LVG manages to get in the right signings, United will be a huge threat next year.True. I think we have a reason to be concerned about MU next season (LvG). And something tells me that we might see the no1 Manchester team battle being a close one.But first things first: Summer deals are gonna be key for all top sides.

Jase 43,479 Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 I honestly laugh at all of these opposition fans that say Cesc isn't a 'Mourinho signing' (as if Mourinho doesn't like his technical players at all... ) or that he's a 'Roman buy' (here is where they try to pretend that Mou and Roman still have massive issues on transfers and stuff whilst completely ignore the fact that he allowed the Mata and Luiz transfers to happen so Jose can build the team in his own image ). Mou must be laughing too, all these buffoons that think he's only capable of defensive, conservative football will encounter a huge surprise next season. I've always felt that we needed a CM that can pull the strings from deep, delighted Jose agrees with that.They really won't see it coming next season. I can seriously imagine us scoring a lot of goals and playing attacking football the Mourinho way, occasionally dismantling opposition by a hatful of goals just like he did at Madrid in his second season there, and shutting these fools up; whilst we laugh our way to the PL title.What's this Skippy ()? You boast so much and sound so confident in predicting our success next season and then you end with this. Hopefully this imagination becomes a reality. Hopefully? WTH?! If you wanna boast, boast from start to finish man. The Skipper, kellzfresh and Sheva. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's going to be a great tactical match up; if LVG manages to get in the right signings, United will be a huge threat next year.and that is why it is important that united get that europa league spot due to the match fixing scandal in turkey or somewhere. a united team with van gaal plus 200mil of transfer budget worth of players (though dont see which WC players they can buy to make a mighty big impact than the ones they already have) plus only PL to concentrate on is a recipe for disaster.

Madmax 9,219 Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 Anyone else think those MARCA quotes are way too particular and frank to be from Jose himself? I mean those guys tried everything in their power to make his Madrid stay a living hell and here he goes and grants them an exclusive interview with direct, 'yes' or 'no' type answers about Courtois, Costa, Ramires and Fabregas? I'd be delighted if all that's been reported is genuine but I'm a little skeptical. darrus, Fernando, Barbara and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully this imagination becomes a reality.I think by now if people are still saying all that bullshit about not a Mourinho type of player then they clearly don't know him. Cause Ozil was never a Mourinho type of player either.... The Skipper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they had cited the source - when, where to whom Mourinho said those things, I'd be more confident. This seems simply like a translation of everything in the Marca article and I lost all respect for Marca ever since all the lies they posted about Mou in 2012/13 season. It was disgusting.But I'm probably just nit-picking too much. Surely they wouldn't make up many quotes that were never said, right?

Es diferente a Matic, Ramires y Óscar. Con él tendremos un centro del campo muy completo. Al fichar a Cesc yo pretendía un centrocampista con un perfil determinado y ahora con su llegada ya lo tengo" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jase 43,479 Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 Most of the English media outlets here - BBC, Sky Sports, Guardian - have picked up on what Mourinho, apparently, said to Marca. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
