Thinks Di Zerbi is better than Pep.
Absolute and utter garbage, hang your head in shame posting such laughable, sensationalist drivel.
A 'terrible manager' who won a European final, a League Cup, F.A Cup runner up and finished 2nd just last season, above Liverpool and Tottenham...
If OGS achieved even half of that you'd be heralding him as a success.
And then using Mourinho to excuse the current manager from any present / future failings. Pathetic stuff.
Mourinho needed to go - he made it so that he had to after he was hung out to dry by Woodward and he lost the dressing room.
But he won trophies here, and he kept us above Liverpool - he is our most successful manager post SAF.
And if Mourinho had received VVD rather than Klopp, we'd be above Liverpool still - albeit playing rubbish football.
Apart from the complete adulation for Mourinho, how about the bit about Ole being heralded a success having done half of what Jose managed?
Poor Mourinho. Killed by the sword of his own greatness. It's really weird how despite being so awesomazing, he left us in tatters with everyone moaning about everything.
Yeah, not quite.All hail Mourinho the champion of our second place finish!
What I've stated is what Mourinho actually achieved, I've also stated that he needed to go, and played rubbish football...
Take a step back and try to understand that not everything is binary, and not everyone who holds slightly different opinion to yourselves is worthy of mockery and rudeness - in doing so, you're showing yourselves up.
I respect Mourinho as a manager for what he's tangibly achieved, same as any other manager - I don't subscribe to tabloid-esque opinions on managers, good or bad, because in reality, I don't care about personalities...
I don't care that Mourinho was the big bad wolf, just as I don't care in the slightest that Olé is a 'nice guy', or even a club legend, I couldn't give a feck in fact.
All I care about, is the best for Manchester United, and that's it.
Mourinho is our most successful manager post-SAF, that is the reality - stating so isn't showing favour to him. And he also took over a flat, lost dressing room and had to implement his own footy after LvG.
My opinion, unpopular as it is, is that Ole will do very well to replicate Mourinho's first 2 seasons here.
The danger is his popularity vs his managerial abilities. Because I assure you right now, he will not be judged to the same standard as Mourinho was / is - in fact some 'fans' are already excusing his failings before they've happened.
All I'm calling for is consistency and fairness in how we judge our managers and what we demand for Man Utd.
