Mourinho already questioning his players and highlighted in the media today. I said to watch his reaction to his first defeat, and there we have it. He tried to be graceful in defeat, he can't keep it behind closed doors can he.

Pretty much. He has not learn and is doing the same mistakes. Guess he will never go back to what he used to be, where he will defend his players all the time. Now since Real Madrid he throws players under the bus.

Bunker mentality.

Phil Neville "Pogba does not need to be disciplined in midfield" 

[Fulham Broadway 16,835]

Not really interested in 'Mourinho v Guardiola' media driven rubbish. More interested in the players and what they do on the pitch

 ''will they shake hands ?'' ''Oooh he gave him a funny look''

Its all a crock of shit, and people interested in that would be better off watching soap operas

[Laylabelle 9,351]

It's so stirred up as well!! And if they do shake hands or whatever they read into something else! Looked at them funny or some crap like that

There's a reason for that. Their attendances have been much better in the PL. I think they've sold out every home game.

What about Mourinho's back to back losses though? Guardiola is going to prove conclusively why he's the superior manager in both their current spells in Manchester.

Wait till December to come to some sort of conclusion.

Very efficient. Made the signings they needed and made the signings very quickly.

[Laylabelle 9,351]

Don't mind them winning it long as we finish somewhere decent..long way to go though but good start for them!

Arsenal 1-0..

City have outclassed us as a club. They have set themselves up for a bright future whereas we just seem to make the dumbest decisions. Such a shame because in reality, London is where the players would much rather live. We had the opportunity to set up a model that could have dominated for decades. Instead City's owners saw what we were doing and thought they could do a better job and how they have!! 😟

A bit too easy for city so far, it is a bit ridiculous to be honest since we struggled against watford and west ham and they are creating and scoring for fun against almost all teams

[Fernando 6,454]

Pretty much is the problem of the board. 

They have people that run the club better then ours. I don't know why Roman does not do a shakeup as well. For a second season in a role the club does a very poor job in the transfer window, yet they keep their job. 

I will admit that hiring Mourinho was a major problem that set us back as you can see. But they got rid of him and that's a start, but the making decision must also be restructured. 

Just like what happen at Juventus as well, they restructure their board and they are reaping the rewards. 

I thought they had learned their lesson from last season but they go and make the same mistakes this summer. It's not good, but hey they will put all the blame of the manager sack him and they continue there.
