He's constantly disrespected our club since, at the very earliest, the Sevilla game. Respect is a two way street.
Mourinho Gone

It's a demise of once great manager. No elite club will take him now certainly not any one of top6 in England and top3 In Spain.
As of now I only think inter could take him back.

I have asked this before, but I still tapping up managers not illegal or is it different than with players, remember Poch doesn’t have an agent.
Someone who won't oppose the idea of a DoF.
You can't make that statement. He could base the team around attack if you give him offensive weapons. He is just not going to go out of his way to force an attacking mindset on players that are not suitable, same thing with defensive football.
Your utter obsession with Woodward is creepy
It has to be Jardim.
If I'm not mistaken he was about to take a job 2 weeks ago but then it got cancelled shortly after it was reported. Surely United aren't that incompetent to sack Jose without having a manager lined up.

Sky doing a recap of his management moments this season. Jesus he really is an unstable imbecile.
That post-match shite after Spurs wasn't something else.

absolutely no chance, top of league and still in cl. maybe in a few years. in the meantime you need someone competent and likebable. poch would be ok.
Wonder if Gus Hiddink is interested in the post. Perhaps he'll see leaving the China u21s as too much of a sideways move, however.
You have an over inflated opinion of your club. By whatever barometer you want to use Utd, are far bigger and successful than Spurs. If it's actually that Utd have won more in 3 years than spurs have in 26 years - then I apologise... the point remains.
Contracts mean very little, just so that either side can get compensation if they move. I assume he wasn't out of contract when he went from Southamotion to spurs? So you know how it works.
Even Blanc would be a good option. feck this, I'm getting excited at the thought of anyone not named Jose Mourinho.
Good riddance.
Sadly, I’m at an age when it was more like a mild heart-attack.
But I hope there’s been not too much ‘Glazing’ of phone and computer screens over the last hour (apologies).
Quieroz won't leave Iran so close to the Asian Cup. He loves Iran.
I honestly don't have any idea, but tapping happens anyway, and no one really cares about it.
I don't want Poch at all, but if United wants him, the way forward is to talk with him and Spurs, not to push him on leaving Spurs by making them sack him. That would be if not illegal then at least a cnutish behavior, plus any self-respecting manager wouldn't do it anyway.
Quite possible.
Anyway. He is gone now which was the right thing to happen although it gives me no pleasure to say that as in effort we are back to square one.
Also gone are any of the excuses from any of the players. Most have underperformed and Jose took the flack.
Whoever is appointed, they now have to man up and perform.
With Emily Atack as his number 2?
The really important appointment now is director of football. Only a lunatic would want to work here in current structure...job is a poisoned chalice. Fix that first, then look for a manager.
I bet Giggs is kicking himself for not staying on as a coach. He’d have six months to prove himself now.
The Baby-faced Admin..... nah, won’t work.
Give it ta Moyesy til the end of season

Lingard scored the first and last goal of his reign at Utd.
Mourinho did sign two of those players for massive fees and the rest he gave new contracts too
His squad building has been really poor
It was a bigger shame to see him disrespecting the club with his "football heritage" speech and flirting with PSG to secure a new deal.
Alan Pardew spotted in Manchester
Fair enough, didn't take the right things out of those posts, then. :P
Agreed.
Right decision by the club.
Now I'd like to see us modernise our approach. Fergie was a one-off, there's no-one in today's game who can do what he did. The club is simply too big and in expecting Moyes and his successors to do it the board (including Fergie himself) underestimated how key SAF was to the club's success.
I'd love to replace Fergie with someone else that good, but in the absence of a candidate capable of performing all the roles Fergie did we should be splitting that managerial role down, as many clubs have, and adopting a Director of Football/Head Coach model. I honestly think that in the long term, doing that, and hiring the right DoF, will be more important that who our next 'manager' is.

Well, this is exciting news! I'm actually pleasantly surprised it's happened before the winter transfer window.
Yes, this. We cannot botch it again. We cannot just simply look for the manager with the best CV.
Quieroz would walk to Manchester for the chance to sniff the new managers underpants.
That's for lawyers to decide, i think it could be a lot less if they can prove in court that Mourinho bad mouthed and disrespected the club in public. Still, the man has earned massive amounts of money over the years, once he said he only needed some of it to help his children buy a house one day. After Porto, Chelsea (two times), Madrid and United it should be possible without question.
Again, it's not only about money. The man has to find something new to do in his free time and celebrating the day he can't do what he loves anymore is over the top, IMO. Sack him and move on, no need for a big celebration
Winner of I'm a Celebrity.
This
It won't be one of the CO92, and most of Fergie's ex-players have been relative failures as managers. Surely must be Blanc, presumably with Carrick & McKenna staying on in coaching roles (perhaps one of them appointed as assistant - or maybe another coach/former player eg Evra joining Blanc).
It's Evra surely
He doesn't even have to get himself sacked. All he has to do is say he wants to leave.
Then Levy or whoever is running the club has to make the decision if they want to keep a manager who doesn't have his heart in the job against his will. And then consider the potential effect it will have on the squads morale and attitude if it gets out that there manager wanted to go.
You can strong hand a player to stay but the guy leading your entire group, is a different matter.
It looks to me as if they're after Pochettino in the summer (I doubt they will get him) and just wanted Mourinho out to remove his toxicity, placate players who are thinking of leaving and to start putting things in place (e.g. a director of football). The season is a write-off now anyway, it was once they didn't sack him a couple of months ago, so the important thing is to reset the club (as Neville said) and aim to be more competitive and exciting next season.
