Stability at last. Looking forward to him breaking Pep again.
Mourinho extends contract to 2020 (option for a further year as standard)

- Start date
He's the Boss. Brilliant news.
Good news, now DDG pls
Great news. Genuinely think Jose wants to win the CL with us before leaving. 2-3 more signings and we should be ready to compete for the league next year
Fair play buddy!
I just don't get why it's even mentioned anymore, considering no other manager's living or travel circumstances are even brought up. Still.Great news.
The club needs the stability of a top manager for an extended period. And I think Jose knows he's going to have a great side in a couple of years and he won't want to hand that over to someone else.

Good news. Should out doubts to bed to some degree and I'm happy with the job he's done so far. Not committed to anything top long. No complaints from me.
I'm hoping this helps in getting the likes of DDG sign a new deal now.
He is also the first manager post-Ferguson to have extended his contract. Stability.
What have I missed?
Brilliant news. I love you Jose! .
Right man for the right job, I wouldn't swap him for anyone. Seems happy here, lets just hope his usual meltdown as seen at Chelsea happens in the 3rd season. I personally don't see that happening though, the players look very happy. Plus it's great that he has the complete backing of the Board. Need a new player Jose? Pick the most expensive one if you want

I can't help but be disappointed. We'd have nearly been five years into Moyes six year plan by now, better times
Serious question what will Jose do after 2020 because I can't see him staying longer than that? He will 56/57 by the time the contract ends and that's still a very young age for a manager. He's a long way away from retirement so where will he go? PSG, Portugal national team, or somewhere else?
Fecker chose money over Pep.
Mourinho, not Vilev
Depends on how it goes, I would say. If he is successful he'll obviously stay for as long as he wants to - the dream would be that he's keen on emulating Ferguson.
When they say an option for a further year, who exactly is that option for?
Brill news.
The club, the same as they do with player contracts.
Bet he's a really nice guy to hang with.Woody always looks super happy.
I get what you are saying, but I do think that Mourinho can get his team to play attractive football with the right players. I thought Real Madrid played some amazing football at times. You just won't see Mourinho play a kamikaze type of football like Liverpool plays. It will always be a balanced type of attacking football, and it does seem to be the most effective one because he has won countless amounts of trophies. His type of football is not far from the type SAF played. We have plenty of young players with pace like SAF we just need some experience around them
Imagine thatI can't help but be disappointed. We'd have nearly been five years into Moyes six year plan by now, better times
I hope we're not aiming for sixth place and the "we beat Leicester City in August" trophy again. We're making progress this season but let's not view last season as any sort of standard.
Great news. Stability and time now to finish this rebuilding job. Look out Pep! Jose's coming for you!
Awesome.

Everybody's happy
Well, almost.
What? You're basing last seasons success on a game we played in August and finishing 6th? No one said anything about finishing 6th as being a standard, in fact, he explicitly says "winning three trophies" was the standard so I don't know why you've even brought it up.
If you'd have been offered three (minor) trophies and Champions League football, whatever the league finish, last season, you'd have bitten someone's hand off.
My dad sat next to him in the directors box when we beat Arsenal last month. He said he was a really nice bloke and knew everything about United. Made my dads day when he grabbed his arm celebrating as the whole directors box was full of Arsenal fans obviously
Agreed DDG must be next then we can say perfection!
Can I hang with your dad? Please?!My dad sat next to him in the directors box when we beat Arsenal last month. He said he was a really nice bloke and knew everything about United. Made my dads day when he grabbed his arm celebrating as the whole directors box was full of Arsenal fans obviously
I think he mean to say "we must get min three trophies each season" that will be amazing..
Look, my point is, we finished sixth, we won the fecking League Cup and unconvincingly snuck past giants like Anderlecht and Celta Vigo, playing shite and, against Celta, hanging on for dear life at Old Trafford.
Yeah, in the end, we got into the Champions League so the season wasn't a complete failure. But that's about it. It's not "incredibly high standards". It was a season where we just about managed to meet minimum expectations. If our 2016/17 was about setting high standards, then Arsenal had a very good 2017, winning two trophies!
Disappointed he didn't play GGMU on the harmonica.
Excellent news and a big feck you to the haters
Brilliant news! Waiting on the video of Jose playing a violin or something epic like that.
Hon the Maureen!
Good move. Means his contract won't become a distraction over the next 18 months, but we're not tying ourselves up too long if it ends up going wrong.
Nice, DDG and Martial next please.
