Absolute dud He's one of the better midfielders in the world, when he want's to be. Atm he and Raiola are pushing for a move to Real, so he has downed tools again.

I remember a time players pushed for a move by playing well For me he is a chancer, give him no defensive responsibilities and he looks decent but he is a luxury player. Look at both Silvas, De Bruyne for City much better players and all put in a defensive shift. Pogba is a joke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pogba is a joke 13 goals (granted a bunch of pens) and 9 assists in the league isn't half bad considering he's only been bothered to apply himself for about 12 games. Definite attitude issues thou.

Davkaus Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 Ok, that's hilarious. Nowhere near enough to sack him, but he doesn't get the job after this if they'd waited until the end of the season. Perfect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 What they need is a mass clear out. Keep De Gea, Lindelof, Dalot, Shaw, Lingard, Rashford and Martial. Dump the lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LakotaDakota Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 Genuinely think that they may get rid of OGS in the summer. Their final 4 games aren't exactly fun. City, Chelsea, Huddersfield (ok this one is simple enough) & Cardiff on the final day who could be in with a chance of staying up. If City smash them at old trafford on Wednesday someone will be looking through that contract for any way out of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villalad21 Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 (edited) Mourinho said finishing 2nd with that Manchester United team is the biggest achievement in his coaching career, I'm starting to agree with him.

Jimzk5 Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 Hahahaha How long will OGS last? Will they allow him the time,. And more importantly the money to sign the players they need? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps he should have brought in better players with £300m + they gave him and maybe it wouldn’t have been such a hardship for him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkyvilla Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 It did seem an odd time to give him the job. I don't think he's the messiah people were going on about earlier nor is he as shit as he is being made out to be now, but you have to give him credit for keeping Utd in the hunt for top 4. The problem is the transfer policy of the past few years and if they don't sort that out then it doesn't matter who is in charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mourinho spent the same amount of Everton - that's just the money in football now. £300m sounds a lot in that time, but that's Europa League spend in the PL. In the same timeframe Pep spent £550m, for reference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point is José saying “yeah but come on - look at these players...and I still got second place, aren’t I great?” doesn’t wash with me. A lot of them are his players. If he doesn’t rate them, then he shouldn’t have brought them in. Edit - also add to this he inherited de gea, bought zlatan for free, Sanchez relatively cheaply, that’s going to have reduced the potential spending...Everton or other europa league contenders don’t often have players of that quality in their squad.
