I reckon someone in Italy would take him still.
Moyeseh kept getting jobs in the PL so I am pretty sure there will always be a job for Jose in England.

Wolves would suit him so well.

One thing that amazes me with Jose is how he used to dig out Luke Shaw at every opportunity (even when he had a good game and even when he was no longer the manager) but Aurier , who is a much worse defender, doesn’t get anywhere near the same treatment and who was probably more worthy of it.

Aurier who stormed off away home at half time last week?

I think they'd sell their own souls to give themselves some silverware.
More like they will rather feign indifference than admit they were wrong all along about Jose. This has to do with a misguided sense of superiority in not writing Jose off from Day 1 despite watching how things panned out in his previous three appointments.

They felt that United and Chelsea fans are behaving like jilted lovers who didn't realize what they had when they fired Jose only for him to get Spurs to the top so that they can rub it in our faces. In reality though, they let go of the only top manager they had in so many years and that's ironical.

I hope Jose squeezes every penny from Levy before leaving them. This couldn't have happened to a better person. Love it when Levy ends up with egg on his face given his fake strong-arm tactics and obnoxious demands.

Sounds like you've rightfully forgotten just how tumescent we were. The whole atmosphere under Jose from pretty much his second season onwards was the most miserable period post Fergie by far. The fact we finished 2nd and most of us wanted him gone because of how depressing it was says it all.
We played rubbish football under him for the majority of his stint. We had a purple patch at the start of his second season where we were scoring loads in the last 10 minutes of games then after that the team played awful football. Yes they managed to finish 2nd but it wasn't pretty football in the slightest. It wasn't LVG boring but 80% of the games were a borefest.
Yeah from a purely footballing stand up it was poor for large spells, but at least results were decent enough. Even in that season we came 2nd and it’s sort of widely stated we started well and were terrible later in the season. In the last two months of that season we still managed wins over Liverpool, Chelsea, Spurs, Arsenal and City. It’s just not comparable to how it’s going for Spurs at the moment.

I don’t think there’s any doubt however that purely because it was Mourinho the dislike intensified and how bad it was is slightly exaggerated. There’s a very weird hatred of our ex managers on here post Fergie. None of them are my favourite people but people just seem to have the knives out for Moyes and Mourinho at the ready.

Honestly wouldn't be surprised to see him gone in the next week or two. I wouldn't care.

Is Moyes that hated? He was just totally out of his depth, he's mocked, but not hated. I think Jose is rightfully in a league of his own when it comes to our post Fergie managers for the amount of dislike towards him. For the Sevilla shit show alone he'll always be treated with a massive amount of disdain.

I forgave Moyes even when he was manager. He's a decent guy but I don't think even Moyes expected to be the next United boss. Mourinho craved for this job then having secured it he proceeded to insult the club, incessantly squabbled with the players and kept insinuated that they weren't good enough to mount a challenge worthy of the name. He was backed with millions in every window and had some top quality talent and he squandered all of it. Yeah we had some good moments and I'll let it go someday but Jose deserves the shit he gets from United fans.

We played some utter, utter garbage under him. I remember the games against Huddersfield, against West Ham. Playing like minnows at home to Spurs and depending on Martial (a player he later threw under the bus but who bailed him out multiple times - think back to the comeback vs Newcastle) to nick a winner.

I have no idea.
I'd at least keep Jose past the League Cup final, he's got a great record in finals and it's been a while since you won anything.

But I also wonder, who could come in and be a positive appointment? Even a big name manager like Allegri is not some free flowing tactician, much closer to Jose actually. Rose likely to go to Dortmund. Frank Lampard is available :D

That's why I don't know, no obvious candidate

I didn’t hate him whilst in the job. He was clearly out of his depth, and was like a lottery winner.

however, he’s talked so much shit about United since his appalling reign. He has no humility, and can’t accept he was the wrong man, and failed. Utter prick.

I despise him because of this. He still uses us as a platform.

not that it would happen, but I’d take back Jose every day of the week over Moyes. I’d walk across the road if Moyes was walking towards me.

Honestly Spurs were just awful awful awful. Indictment on Chelsea that it was only 1-0.

Wow Spurs are bad and watching them struggle is a constant reminder of how relieved I am that Mourinho isn’t here. Now an absolute dullard of a manager with no apparent willingness to press, attack and play good football

Pretty much any “hipster” coach would do a better job with this group.

Actually stringing a few passes together and getting some shots on target would be a massive improvement.
Who are those "hipster" coaches you speak of who they could attain now?

Watching the TV or is it watching me
Dreadful at least with Poch they were trying to go forward and be progressive.

What I don't get is about Jose is these clubs see the discord he sows behind the scenes yet he gets jobs why United went for after what happened at the end of Chelsea 2 and then why Spurs went for him after the end at United is beyond me he is incapable of change and I don't think he actually wants to

You're right. Moyes should be mocked not hated but I hate how his attitude and inferiority complex. And I hate Jose for the exact reason you mentioned.
