That’s their choice. No one forcing them to waste money on this crap.
Mourinho at full time: "Pogba a virus. You don't play. You don't respect players/fans" [Castles]
- Thread starter Samid

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?

Final throw of the dice from Mourinho, seen it all before.
Can’t disguise fact he is doing a worse job than any other manager in the league.

I don't see why player power is more toxic than manager's power. LvG abused his power in his unfair treatment of Herrera and Pereira, and Jose in current form. Player power is not inherently evil; neither is the manager's power.
I think there are times we should support the players and at other times, support the manager. Current situation requires the former.
That's really not what it's about for travelling fans.
Figured it out. That's Duncan castles
A master psychologist, our Jose.
Nope. Castles actually criticized Mourinho's tactics in one tweet. Yes, hardcore fanboy saw the light briefly.
CA1 is an amazing poster though. He is to Mourinho what Santiago Kinderbueno was to LvG.
I’m just saying it’s not their place to complain as they’ve made a choice to go knowing what the likely output is these days. What they don’t know is the atmosphere of the dressing room and the work relationships going on behind the scenes that would have an effect on how our players perform.
You know, the same as it is in every job across the planet bar maybe doctors, military, and emergency responders.
Castles is feckin clueless and that's putting it politely!!
He tweeted 2 weeks ago that Jose rates Bailly and sees him as United future CB.
Yes egghead, he rates him soooo freakin highly that he picks Matic, McTominay and Herrera as centre halves over him instead!!
Every single time things get really, really bad for Jose at the club you can fully expect this tool to fire off a load of anti player rubbish to save his hero!
He's in Jose's pocket no doubt about it and raking it in to print and fire off sound bites.

Dunno what the over reacting is about. This is all part of the master plan, something something barriers something.
There is no way Mourinho would win a fight will Pogba on a board level.
Mourinho has a history of falling out with players, turning the club toxic and getting himself sacked, while Pogba has played under other managers who have nothing bad to say about him but according to Mourinho Pogba is the virus here and some of the fans are lapping it up. Go figure!
Let's be honest Pogba is garbage as a player and a personality. Sir Alex had him sussed years ago.

So the exact same shit show as when Ed wouldn’t sack lvg and we lost out on manager after manager.
I’m not the one saying we should sack Jose. If there’s a manager ready to take over, get rid. If not, feck this Carrick nonsense that’s being posted about.
I don’t see how anyone is still backing our manager.
Oh ffs Ed. Did we even give him a call? Even an interim role here would be better than SaudiSo the exact same shit show as when Ed wouldn’t sack lvg and we lost out on manager after manager.
Pogba was a disgrace yesterday as well and deserves a mention within any comment.
We’re in a mess. It’s not just the manager, it’s not just the players, it’s not just the people off the pitch, it’s the whole lot of them. The whole lot of them should be ashamed. Stabbing each other in the back at the expense of the football club. Every single one of them should be ashamed of themselves.
Being the tea lady at OT would be preferable to working in Saudi.
He may be the big virus himself but it doesn't change the fact that he's spot on imo. If the given quotes are legit, that is.
Is that why he offered him a contract and instructed senior members of the squad (by their own account) to try to convince him to turn down Juve? The constant revisionism regarding his exit is laughable
We're in no position to be letting go of the little talent we presently have
I feel that way due to not giving a feck about the team in general though. It's not watching José that pisses me off, it's watching a load of wankers who can't even be arsed running while playing for Man Utd. Now that has to be a failing of the coach too but let's not pretend some of the players aren't being pathetic.
Wouldn't usually side with Mourinho over Pogba but I think he has a point. Was really disappointed with him yesterday.
What, by wanting to keep him but not paying the wages he wanted
. You've had a shocker!That's just stupid. Castles may be annoying but he's very accurate especially in regards to Jose
But he's not at all, that's the point.
He's just firing out sound bites to defend his man.
How anyone can defend Jose at this point is mind boggling.
He really isn't.
Pogba is not a Man Utd player.
His performance levels is at times cringeworthy and yesterday was disgraceful. Add in the fact that Raiola is his agent and the cocktail is toxic.
With that being said I have been in the Mou “camp” for a long time. Now I just want him gone. He has disappointed me immensely this season. It’s like I gave him the benefit of the doubt and he crushed that. Ed W also needs to go. We have no leadership at the club, at all.

What the hell is going on here?
Surely the powers that be can't have our manager slating a player like this?

This is some CAF myth perpetuated since what 2015 or something but since his Madrid days Castles always had the latest on what was going on. In fact, check the Pogba transfer rumors thread Castles was first to break that we were in touch. He is a pretty reliable source but hating on him is a trend here.
Bang on. It's getting to the point when you just look at him with no hope whatsoever. He will have worldies every 4/5 games, though, which keeps FIFA teens excited. Seems to be enough to keep his status of, admittedly, incredible talent.
Totally agree, Pogba yesterday was shockingly poor. He kept losing the ball in dangerous situations. Definitely not a player to build a team around imo. Its time to admit that the move just hasn't worked out. I also wanted to give Mourinho the benefit of the doubt but at this stage I just cannot see him turning things around. We need a 'Mark Robins' type miracle like in the 1990 FA Cup which kept Sir Alex in his job.
What are you on about? I'm fully aware that we are crap, and unless we get rid of the idiot in charge and the moron in the managers chair that's how we will stay, which is exactly why we can't carry show ponies who care more about their brand and their ego rather than getting stuck In and putting some damn effort in.
I'm not arguing there, I'd quite happily cancel the contracts of every damn one of them,
Then whoever is paying for that banner needs to grow up and get a grip. If they're willing to pay for that, they may as well give the banner money to a charity.
Sick of Pogba and his antics. Also sick of Jose. Don’t let the door hit your arse on the way out
Terrible, terrible fans.
He's wumming guys.
Pogba captain on Wednesday then way this season is going.
Mourinho seems to have had a thing with Pogba all season yet keeps starting him game after game.

The worry with letting Pogba go, is how hard it was to get players of that ilk in to start with.
You lose Pogba, you're losing the only even vague flair in the centre mid, and Fellaini-Matic combos will be the go to option
