Utd forever great post. I think that sums up what many of the anti Jose feel. By that I mean the dislikers not the haters views.

The guy should have had a lot more respect, and that is something that whether your pro or anti Jose, its hard to disagree.

Although right now I am border line, all what you mentioned (respect, public player criticism & the whole denial on why we lose), is what will turn the rest eventually, I can live with the football, the tactics if it gives us something, but not the rest.

N_N,

I think it's because people don't like him.

And these days with all the money they have the players can pick and choose

Hey Brothers

You're absolutely correct about the scintillating football i should have elaborated it wasn't that that was the problem with Doc it was his stupidity of not being able to keep it together or should i say in his pants lol ......abit like Moaning Mourinho can't help himself he always has to say or do something stupid lol

I don't know brother to be honest i can't see us winning this game morals is dirt low. On the bright side though Sancez is going to have a belter of a season and from what I've seen i think Luke Shaw and Fred are going to have a crackers as well. In my opinion i think Pereira is about to make a huge impact if he gives him the chance. Other than that let's hope Pogba doesn't go back to his usual self. Leicester are extremely dangerous on any given day and now old silly bollocks has unnerved and unsettled everyone with Press comference, everyone including Leicester is going to come at us that extra bit more to humiliate us even more.

Nice one by our illustrious manager.

Your all correct brothers.

Just for the record im not a Mourinho hater at all intact i respect what he's achieved and who he is you can't take that away from the man. I respect and listen and acknowledge everyones feelings and opinions however i feel in this instance, and please brother is stand corrected by all means if im wrong, im sure we can all agree that everything that has happened up until this point has been because of his own doing. My problem with him is allowed himself to become the "jester" of the EPL that's fine that's his prerogative however don't drag the club down with his antics, don't slag off our players regardless of what the intention is, follow in the steps of and honour and uphold our values, our history, our commitment to excellence, our passion and love for the game and our club - RESPECT. This is the reason he's lost a lot of support from everyone. We don't care if we loose we care about how much heart our lads play with week in week out that's what United is : It's a club that stairs adversity in the eye and takes it head on, we never give up.
Everyone can't deny there were so many times last season where are boys just didn't want to be there it was gut wrenching to watch and that's not us, that's not UNITED. The field of dreams became the field of nightmares. He just did not and does not seem interested. This is point im trying to make, he is not interested he's not passionate, he doesn't love the club.

Like i said guys i don't hate him i just hate his attitude and reluctance to acknowledge the situation and turn the negative into a positive. I stand corrected if im wrong by all means brother :)

Majority of blame is with the board though. Missed out on Guardiola and Klopp. Strategic mistakes are costly are we're still paying the price.

Completely agree with you there brother. They had Klopp ready to sign and Ed Woodward comes out with " its like Disneyland here....." WTF!!!!!! Ofcourse Klopp walked away and look what he's done.

Looks like City are the only one who strengthened their outfield with Mahrez,of the top six that is.Chavs snd dippers got a keeper each,Spurs no one not sure bout Arsenal.
I’d take Mahrez over Fred me thinks.

Problems will start when our shitty football becomes our image permanently and lack of trophies takes the prestige away.. the sponsors will dissappear faster than Woody can spell checkbook.

Yup 100%

That’s why I don’t understand the lack of transfers. Whether Mourinho is with us for another 3 weeks or 3 years, where we need to improve is clear for all to see.

So why not bring in some proper CB’s?

At least then if we still flop, no one (not even a JM lover) could have any issue if he gets axed.

My problem with this with this is the fact that he is even looking for someone cb. He signed lindelof and bailly for heaven's sake. He has smalling, Jones and rejoicing who he is refusing to let go.. If it was a right wing forward, I will understand.. U can't keep throwing money on same problem.

Correct Brother

You can't buy a championship and if you do you can't sustain it. Egos, unrest, divided dressing room, outrageous and unjustified demands etc...... He did it at Chelsea and the next season he was sacked.

He has the perfect chance to hold that defence and bring in some of the young players, mould them into an unstoppable force. The talent is there and it will cost nothing. That was Sir Alex's mentality and it worked.
