It's all a bit strange isn't it - especially since people appear to think he will be trying to buy a ton of Utd players who essentially failed him during his time there.Seriously, why would anybody care?

Jose is the complete opposite of a Levy appointment.Bale? Are you kidding? The opposite of a Levy signing.
I know. Could be looking for a sign-on fee. Tottenham however might be willing do do buisness now.Alderweireld is free in the summer.
So you favour Lindelof then? I guess ridiculous is a matter of opinion.One is also 25 and the other 31 this season. Ridiculous suggestion
Lukaku wanted a new experience so hardly likely he’ll return. Jose has the best finisher at his disposal since Drogba why would he need LukakuHonestly wouldn’t be surprised if he makes an attempt for Lukaku in his second year, if he’s still there.
He failed the players and the team.It's all a bit strange isn't it - especially since people appear to think he will be trying to buy a ton of Utd players who essentially failed him during his time there.
Pleasehopefully Matic and Lingard
Pogba.
That’s a very good point!Jose is the complete opposite of a Levy appointment.
It appears they may be looking to appoint a director of football who would most likely handle the transfers.I think Levy and Mourinho's agreement would be that Mourinho doesn't get involved in any transfers. If that's the way they did it, they are going to be one strong team as Levy is dam good in the transfer market.
This may be a wise move on their part going off his transfer dealings at Utd. The trouble is that when his shite football inevitably fails he will then blame the DOF for buying the wrong players.It appears they may be looking to appoint a director of football who would most likely handle the transfers.
Yeah the Lille guy? If Levy pays compensation to get him, it will be VERY interesting, a total change on spending.It appears they may be looking to appoint a director of football who would most likely handle the transfers.
Seeing that, don't you think Poch might feel slighted by it? Like wasn't he asking for signings a long time before this summer, and Levy was throwing breadcrumbs his way? Or was it because Levy did not trust Poch to bring the right players in?Yeah the Lille guy? If Levy pays compensation to get him, it will be VERY interesting, a total change on spending.
IF and its a big If we see spending now its simply due to all the infrastructure being completed, Poch came in when the training ground was going in, all the way through to the stadium which he had a lot of input into. Poch signed for us knowing there would be no money. Its just a shame that the rot has been with us for 9 months or so and I think he had lost parts of the dressing room. I slight on Poch, no I don't think so just rotten timing.Seeing that, don't you think Poch might feel slighted by it?

Slightly kind on Zlatan, he was good but he missed a lot of big chances. Look back on threads from his time with us, a lot were frustrated with him. Harsh on Lindelof and Pogba. Neither have been duds.His signings for us:
Zlatan - class
Micky - dud and sold
Pogba - expensive dud, dressing room problem
Bailly - injured dud
Lindelof - dud
Lukaku - expensive dud and sold
Sanchez - expensve dud and sent out on loan
Matic - dud and we are running his contract down
Dalot - looks like an expensive dud for a teenager, paid £18m for a player who had played 7 first team games for Porto.
Fred - expensive dud
No wonder we are in a such a terrible position.
Agree to some extent. I feel eventually we need a faster CB next to Maguire. I don't think they compliment each other very well. Pogba playing as a number 10 for us has been very good. But he was bought as a CM and he simply can't play the role. Everytime we play a midfield two including Pogba defensively we are all over the place. I don't know why Solskjaer has been looking for number 10s on the market when DM is far more of a priority in my opinion. Let Pogba flourish without defensive duties and be protected by two defensive minded players when he invariably loses the ball on occasions.Slightly kind on Zlatan, he was good but he missed a lot of big chances.

I agree with the rest.
Likewise it'll be interesting to see what Mourinho does: it's been a long time since he was at a club (like Spurs) that doesn't have oodles of cash to spend on players.I’d rather give Poch a big kitty than Jose to be honest. Be interesting to see what Poch does now, a year ago he was one of the hottest managers about and now he’s just been sacked after a run that has been more like relegation form than title challenging.
As long as they don't allow Mourinho to pick the players, they will be fine. Mourinho is much better just as a coach.It appears they may be looking to appoint a director of football who would most likely handle the transfers.
Yeah I think he'll get Bale no doubt if given the chance. Everyone knows he likes Bale.Bale looks a certainty. I reckon a swap deal with Eriksen could happen in January.
Are Spurs going to pay him £400k a week? I doubt it personally.Bale looks a certainty. I reckon a swap deal with Eriksen could happen in January.
These are the kind of teams Jose is made for. Outside shout with winning anything but in the conversation, club willing to back his ideologies in exchange for silverware, players willing to buy into his methods.What are the odds they become a lot better than us over the next few years
Did they fail him, or did he fail them?It's all a bit strange isn't it - especially since people appear to think he will be trying to buy a ton of Utd players who essentially failed him during his time there.
