Jose:

"Lots of credit to Man City but Pep arrived.

Has England keeper. Doesn’t like.
Buys the Barca keeper. Doesn’t like.
Buys another one.
Has Zabaleta + Kolarov. Replaces them with 3; from Tottenham, Monaco + Real.
Can we buy 6/7 players at same time + invest £600m/£700m? No"

Did Bravo, Ederson, Mendy, Walker and Danilo cost 600m?  No, they cost pretty much the same as Lukaku and Lindelöf.  The man is an utter uttter cretinZ

The way Maureen goes on, you'd think he hasn't had a penny to spend since taking over. We got KDB and Ederson for the price of Pogba. We got Sane and B.Silva for the price of Lukaku. We got Gundogan for half the price of Matic ffs.

Yes, City have spent plenty but we are far from alone in that respect. Pep has spent very wisely, I don't think that is acknowledged enough as its clouded by the sums involved but he knew where to improve us and went out and got the right players (perhaps excluding Bravo Wink )

Oh, and a big +1 for a new contract for Maureen. If Moyes got 6 years, let Jose have 10.

Home fans boo manager off. Manager under no pressure at all?

Hopefully the only pressure is on the pen he uses to scribble his signature on a new contract.

The level of trolling in this thread lately is ridiculous.

IIRC blonde lost posters because of this sort of guff on the Liverpool thread.

Easy to see why United fans aren't posting much of late.

Can't the City fans have their sport on their own thread?

The football threads really do get irksome, as people take the banter baton and keep running.

If you can't have a laugh at Mourinho then what in life can you laugh at? (unless you love him of course Wink )

They were the late KO and drew yet again, think its pretty standard to see a flurry of comments. Plus all of Mourinho's media comments simply invites people to come and take a look and maybe comment or post.

I don't think this thread has been a hotbed of united fans for a long time. It's not as if any of their contributions are being lost amongst other fans.

Lighten up.

If Mourinho didn’t make such idiotic comments I wouldn’t feel the need to post.  I don’t really care if Man Utd win of lose but I do care if their manager twists the truth in such an absurd way.  If objecting to that is unacceptable then this isn’t much of a forum.

+1

Tal, I usually agree with you but this thread has been fina as far as I'm concern. No real abuse.

I'm a Man U fan and I agree with everything being said about Mourinho. The man is an absolute disgrace.

Man U xG and xA this season. Quite a fascinating chart

Very scary graph reflecting the performance drop-off. Cumulative xGA is the worst by some distance relative to the big 6 and particularly Chelsea, Spurs and City. In fact xGA is almost at the total for the entire 16/17 season. Helps enormously that DDG is so good.


3 tough away fixtures this month for United - Everton, Burnley and Spurs. Love him or loathe him it is a big month for Jose.

I was a big Maureen fan and would have gladly had him at the home of the new champions. Obv until Pep came calling. No respect for him or Conte behaving like the world owe them something. Both teams simply not good enough this season. Both great managers but there huge egos have taken away what they are supposed to be good at. Zero trophies for both this season.

I quite like Conte inviting maureen into a room to sort the matter out in private.

After seeing his knees turn to jelly when he thought Arsene was going to stick one on him I know who my money would be on.

Confirmed that Conte (1.78m) is a bigger man than Mourinho (1.74m).  Both of them suffering from Napoleon syndrome.  Guaridola is 1.8m, which would explain a lot, until you discover Wenger is 1.91m and Klopp was 1.93m.  Crouch will be an excellent manager obv.  People should put heaps on him for Stoke boss in the circumstances.
