Best post I've read for a while. V good that man.If the club is suffering from an autoimmune disease, a virus isn't the problem.
It is his problem when he trots around the pitch, tries drag backs and loses the ball and generally stinks out the place though.Mourinho meltdown in full swing! Pogba once again under the the firing line. He's our most creative player by a mile. It's not his fault he's playing under the wrong manager, in the wrong system and with players around him who have no confidence.
This.Pogba was shocking last night.
Jose is a cnut. But Pogba was a disgrace.
Its actually a joke how he can be awful at his job, seemingly trying to get himself sacked and gets a massive payoff for it
Howe? Really? What makes you think he will be able to handle a job this size and dressing room full of egos?Would love to see Howe given a chance. Won't happen though.
True, except I think Pereira hasn't been given a chance yet.Pogba is not the only problem. He stands out as the most obvious. Sanchez, Smalling, Rashford, Valencia, Bailly, Martial, Fred, Pereira and Lingard are others who have issues to a varying degrees.
Pereira? Why?Pogba is not the only problem. He stands out as the most obvious. Sanchez, Smalling, Rashford, Valencia, Bailly, Martial, Fred, Pereira and Lingard are others who have issues to a varying degrees.
This is exactly why I didn't want Mou here, I hate his football but even more than that I hate the god damn circus that surrounds him at every club he has been at. Can't wait until this muppet is out of the club. So fecking sick of him and yes Pogba can feck off as well if he can't be bothered to try and play his best football no matter who the opponent is.Can it get any worse.....
I agree with thisIf Pogba is a pain under the next boss, he can go too. But for now, lets just be rid of Jose and see how it goes.
Martial didn't get any better offers though because he's not as good as Pogba. He tested the market, realised he's not as big as he thinks and then came back. With Pogba, some mug would always take him e.g. PSG or Real, maybe even Juve.They blocked martial sale when he had a year or so left on his contract, there is no way he is leaving until he has a year or less left.
Absolutely spot on but the virus needs to be stopped at the source and my opinion is that a lot of this responsibility is with the upper management. Poor planning, one bad decision after another and prolonging the inevitable despite no sign of improvement. Unfortunately, the board have made it clear that success on the pitch is secondary to the business model and it will not be long before the sponsorship income starts drying up.Its obvious Mourinho has lost some of the players. I commented as much in the match day thread. Some of the players are just going through the motions.
Jose has fallen out with a number players and there's a clique which has developed at the club. Something has to give and the upper management has a decision to make as early as Monday. Carry on with Mourinho and let this get worse to the point where the virus spreads and causes more misery and financial loss by way of devaluing player values.
A team wouldn't be a mug to sign Pogba, far from it.Martial didn't get any better offers though because he's not as good as Pogba. He tested the market, realised he's not as big as he thinks and then came back. With Pogba, some mug would always take him e.g. PSG or Real, maybe even Juve.
Absolutely. There's no way he should have been United manager at the start of this season. As some of us suspected, history simply repeated itself this season.No club is as stupid as us. Jose should have been thanked and sacked at the end of the last season, and should have been sacked 5 times already this season.
Pereira was our best player pre-season and the first few games of the season until Matic came back from injury. Any wonder he's upset and not getting game time or even a squad place?True, except I think Pereira hasn't been given a chance yet.
Don't know why I've been quotedHowe? Really? What makes you think he will be able to handle a job this size and dressing room full of egos?
What has he won?
I like Howe but I think calling for him to be manger of Manchester United FC is a bit of a stretch. And a huge gamble.
Pogba has been absolutely shocking at times but we all know 'that manager' that it's hard turning up for work for irrespective of your own professionalism. Sometimes irrespective of what you do it's impossible to work under those conditions.This is exactly why I didn't want Mou here, I hate his football but even more than that I hate the god damn circus that surrounds him at every club he has been at. Can't wait until this muppet is out of the club. So fecking sick of him and yes Pogba can feck off as well if he can't be bothered to try and play his best football no matter who the opponent is.
Made me think of the scene from Inglorious Basterds.If this is true then Mourinho has fully expedited the 'dare you to sack me' phase and wants out before Christmas.
Please oblige him.
Yep, we need an enormous clear out and suck it up in the inevitable loss on sales.Pogba is not the only problem. He stands out as the most obvious. Sanchez, Smalling, Rashford, Valencia, Bailly, Martial, Fred, Pereira and Lingard are others who have issues to a varying degrees.
Ive never been an admirer of Fellaini but at least Fellaini gives 100% and sgows he cares, I would rather him play than Pogba; Pogba seems to think that Manchester United revolves around him, that he is special but the only thing special about him is the price tag he came with. Its very easy to see why SAF got shot of him, Pogba is all about Pogba, the team and his team mates are there simply to provide him with a stage and supporting cast. It could be argued that Eric Cantona was very similar in that respect, but Eric produced the goods, time and time again, when we were struggling he dug in and pulled the team together, he had passion, desire, respected and helped his team mates, loved the club, the fans and respected everything Manchester United stands for. Pogba loves Pogba.Good honest players like matic, fellaini and Mctominay. Maybe we will sign a few more from the championship in Jan.
Depends on the team. He'd do well at PSG or Juve I'm sure. I think a team like Real struggling for an identity and rebuilding their squad would have exactly the same problems as us.A team wouldn't be a mug to sign Pogba, far from it.
