Of course it was a pop at Pogba, and rightly so! Pogba was shocking today. So sloppy, constantly gave the ball away, made wrong passing decisions, or held on to it too long. I don't like the way Mourinho always throws the players under the bus, but tonight it was justified.
The Mourinho Thread: Should he stay or go? | Sacked

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?

I really want to see the door hit his ass on the way out
I'll take that. The last 3 managers all came in the summer and needed time to asses the squad, why not try something different this time? Just change something please!
I would not pass him, he's that petty.
good players want out.
Good players wont join us.
It would be worthwhile just to pay him off now.

I can see that too, it would explain a lot of things this season. Which is very scary as a fan and as a player I would imagine.
The players deserve a competent manager. They simply don't have one.
It goes both way.
In his post match interview he said we were dominant...
Saw it was speechless.
You would probably do a better job than Ed at this rate
"Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth"
If anyone want to still persist with Mou, the need their heads examined. Hearts too.
It's like he's living in a parallel world with his worshipers.
Fecking lost it
Your post could not have been serious.
Seems I'm not the only one who thought it was silly
Just put the man out of his misery. I don't expect him to quit, it is down to the board dressing their heels.
At this point, is rather just give Carrick the job to the end of the season and take it from there

"Needs more money and time"
I don't understand how it's all Woodward's fault that literally none of Mourinho's signings have proven to be reasonably good buys. We even swapped one of his terrible signings for another terrible signing in Sanchez and gave him more money than any other player in the history of the Premier League has earned, but its the money man's fault and not the coaching?
Chelsea gave him a 5 year contract in August. By December he was gone. There's no shame in admitting when you have made a mistake.
There is everything to gain from it
We have only 2 options available at the moment: get rid of the players or get rid of jose as the players are not performing for him. We're not going to get rid all the players so jose has to go. As far as getting in a new manager, we should go with an interim manager until the right choice becomes available. If the board are listening to the fans they will get rid of jose, every since he came out in the summer and criticised the kids on tour and complained that he couldn't bring the right players his time was up as far as i was concerned. His style of football is polar apart from what we expect from this great club. Its not all Jose's fault as more of our players are a bunch of immature premadonas that have no respect for the club. As for the way the club is being ran by Woodward is a shambles, he's clueless on running a club, the club has turned into an embarrassment. Big decisions need to be made fast if we're to salvage anything from this season as this crap can't be allowed to continue.

Sorry, Pogba made it happen for our first goal and created a chance for Young. I'm not surprised he throw him under the bus, it's opposite of what Matic is doing this season and he hasn't said a bad word about him yet.
I used to think the United manager job is impossible but now I'm not really sure. I think it actually is the greatest job in football right now. Best wages, 0 responsibility, clueless upper management, huge payoff when sacked.
Millions of candidates must be ringing Woodward non stop

The excuses are in full flow. Our best players have been alienated and quality players who easily have the talent to play quick one touch football are being ostracized.
I’ve gone full Alex Jones now. I’m not saying he was definitely trying to throw that match. I’m just saying if you were trying to throw a match, but not make it seem ridiculously obvious, that’s what it would look like.
He put out a woefully terrible team, and everything was going swimmingly until Rashford decided to create two goals. So he waits what seems like a reasonably unsuspiciois amount of time before hooking him off. Then hooks Lukaku soon after, so that we end a match we need to win against a bottom of the table side with literally no strikers on the pitch...
I mean. I’m definitely not saying thats what happened.. but if it were... it would kinda, maybe, probably, definitely look like that, wouldn’t it?
He was indeed about he was taking so long on the ball at times because he was waiting for an option or someone to make the run. He showed his frustration at times by gesturing at people and asking them why they weren’t going in to this space.
He’s trying to play the game and Unfortunatly others just aren’t on the same page as he is.
How so? Woodward usually gives the managers money to spend. Someone like Pep usually knows exactly what he wants. And can coach the players to achieve that.
To absolve Mourinho after buying a number of players at very high fees is just silly.
I've been saying this for over a month on here...Did you just try to plagiarise Philib?
If he stays we will lose Pogba, De Gea and possibly others in the summer. Unless Woodward is so out of touch with the football side he doesnt realise that, he has to get rid of Jose before the end of the season.
The whole past-match interview was a joke. He has lost it, clear as it gets.
Money wise Maybe.
But I would like to think we are much more than just interested in the money..
Jardim would not come in to United on a short term contract, if we went for him it would be a full bells and whistles one.
He won't and the stars there will hate him.
He was inherently a negative manager but now is also average to boot!
Yeah either we go for him or we don’t.
We are mainly interested in money
Gareth Southgate would do a better job. At least he has the guts to take risks.
The players we sign are horrific and many of them at best have failed and at worst have downed tools under 3 managers now. I don’t think a change of manager is going to get much more out of these players as the squad stands. It’s a toxic squad of big time Charlie’s. On paper fair enough we’ve supposedly got good players. Where’s the winning mentality? Every decision we make seems to be the wrong one even if it seems to make sense at the time. A lot of these players need to go somewhere where they will listen to the manager. I genuinely think that we pay far far too much to everyone in our squad and there’s no incentive to kick on and improve. Just sulk at the first knock back you get and still get paid the highest wages for your ability level in world football without winning football matches or improving here. We are a terribly run club!!!

Totally agree. Under a different manager I'm certain that Pogba would improve. I can't wait to be rid of Mourinho. Pogbas performance tonight is directly related to his his relationship/feelings towards his manager, but he was completely trash tonight.
Everytime I see him I hear the Beastie Boys sabotage theme. How long will the nightmare last, banter fc
Even if we got the comeback that has to be a sackable performance. It is clear that we are now consistently making average and crap teams look excellent. That cannot be acceptable to the board surely?
I hope we never dare call ourselves the biggest club in the world again.
It's just embarrassing at this point.
