|
Rumour has it that Jose's representatives has been contacted about leaving United end of season.
Mental if true.
If he leaves on the basis that some United fans and pundits have critisised him too much then bloody hell. Pathetic.
Ok I'll start. I'd have Poch at United in a heartbeat. _________________ "United's success has generated its wealth; City's wealth has generated its success. Anything else is just piss and wind."

I don't think he's off. I think the PSG stuff probably just guarantees him a better deal in new contract negotiations.
Although it would go some way to explaining his outspoken comments about the support recently - a "well they don't want me here anyway" excuse would give him an easy way out.
I'd be surprised if he continued in football at all after he leaves us. The bloke's looked suicidally depressed in the job since day one. |

As much as Jose frustrates me, I wouldn't want him to go yet. He is doing a good job. Second in the league, got through the CL group with our eyes closed and still in both domestic cups. However, it doesn't seem like he's enjoying his time with us. I've never seen a manager look so depressed and uninterested.
Where do we look next? Poch is an option. But Real or Barca will get there first. Honestly, I can't think of any manager that I would be desperate to get. Would be a bit of a laugh if we could snatch Pep from city though... |

The media are doing their usual job on United. They claimed Lukaku was being booed by United fans, Jose supports his player, Jose get's pissed off with the press for them constantly telling him how to manage his team and players. Jose then speaks well of PSG in what is probably him angling for a better deal at United, the press concoct a story about Jose being unhappy and wanting to leave. It's all bullshit. My view, Jose will be here for quite a few seasons yet & on a better deal too if he keeps delivering trophies. If he's not then so be it, we're Manchester United Football Club, we'll be fine whatever. End of. _________________ Nic...

This.
Pretty sure he won't go within contract. Equally sure he wouldn't want to go without winning the PL or the CL but of course that is partially out of his hands. He probably realises that two blots on the copybook won't read too well.
I don't however think he's based in Manchester so that doesn't augur well for the long term. What the journalists write is just guff. The pundits just repeat the same rubbish too, even our old boys.
On balance I haven't been happy with the September / October performances but the injuries were key and there is plenty of time to pick up. I imagine City were very glad to get that further 3 points on Saturday as, without playing well, we were too close for comfort. Squeaky bum time ain't here yet but neither has it been dispensed with for this year. |

It's bullshit. Iv'e heard that some of the players at PSG are unhappy for one reason or another & are looking to leave so i'd guess this is a smoke screen type of thing to take the media/ players attention away from that. _________________ 68 99 08 |

This is the job he so desperately wanted. If he now wants us to hold us to ransom that is mad. I want him to stay as he is doing a good, not perfect, but very good job and can achieve more. But I would like to see loyalty and commitment.
The fact that he lives in an hotel away from his family strikes me as odd.
Don't be blackmailed by him. Let him go. Bring in The legend that is Ole Gunnar Solskjaer - he won't put himself above the club. |

Seriously, do you think The legend that is Ole is a world class manager worthy of managing United? _________________ "United's success has generated its wealth; City's wealth has generated its success. Anything else is just piss and wind."

thousands of workers in the UK live away from their families due to work, Premier Inn wouldn't exist otherwise. _________________ This is Manchester, we do things differently here.

The lack of a permanent home does tend to suggest after the time that he has been here that he is not committed to Manchester but of course that doesn't mean he is not committed to United.
I do expect him to see out his contract and any option period but of course that is a long time for him. It seems to be the modern way. Pep doesn't appear to be committed to the long term either but that may change as he too gets older. |

Do you think Mourinho gets a sanitary bag left in his room every day even though they know he's a man?  |
