Is that her office or his?

Would be funny if it's his...to have a painted portrait of yourself like in the Godfather.
No worse than Brendan Rodgers haha.

Anyways, it's subjective, but he's considerably better looking than Moyes, which counts for at least 3 points a season.

Under LVG: he'd say 5th place is a good achievement, that is where we belong and we need to lower our expectations.
Under Moyes: he'd say that this is a 6 year project and in 6 years he will try to mount a title challenge, while aspiring to beat MCFC and LFC.


J.Mourinho: "We can look at our club in two perspectives, one is the last three years and another is the club's history."
In other words, the last 3 years have been a disaster.
We finally have a manager who understands the United Way: Win Win Win!!!

Found all the images earlier weird from him, seeing the interview though you can see how happy he is. Already saying the right things. Looking forward to next season.

It's probably their living room.

According to an earlier post here there's the same thing from a different angle on his son's Twitter account

My favourite was what he said after that. "I prefer to forget the last 3 years. I prefer to focus on the giant club I have in my hands now."

I'm literally just sitting here with this stupid grin on my face, watching and rewatching the interview, reading every new article that pops up. Completely buzzing :devil:

Its so weird to hear him say "we need to.." and remember he's talking about Manchester United. Great feeling, I haven't had that odd sensation since RvP.

He's in London, there'll be plenty of time for that!
To be honest i don't care where he is mate. They had Mourinho, they had a mike and a camera and someone to interview him. I assume they could have found two chairs in a city the size of London.

They could have easily sat down and did a quick 15-20 minute interview. But no because MUTV makes Jeremy Kyle seem like quality television.

And then they have the cheek to crow about them being the only place you'll see a Mourinho interview until July. I've seen longer post match interviews ffs.

God they're so shite, how is it possible a club the size of United has such a shit in house TV channel?

This really does feel like some sort of Sword in the Stone/Cinderella sort of story. Finally the club and the man that are made for each other get it on.

We are Manchester United. Unless the chairs are 100% committed to be used by us then we wouldn't use them. Same with the venue

Just watching MUTV call-ins for the first time in years and the last guy stated Jose can't do any worse than the last 2 managers in a joking sense and the straight/serious faces from Lou and the presenter were hilarious :lol:

Are they afraid of getting sacked for having a laugh at Moyes and LVG? lol:

Moyes does the smart-casual look well tbf. Mourinho looks like he's enjoyed his time off work a bit too far. Pre-season couldn't come sooner for the podgy fecker
