Sometimes I feel everyone at United would just shut the feck up and help us actually win something meaningful like PL/CL.

We will probably sell this summer.Any word of a new contract? I don't expect him to sign one anyway and he'll walk away from the club for free next summer.
Not much noise at all either way at the minute.Any word of a new contract? I don't expect him to sign one anyway and he'll walk away from the club for free next summer.
I actually don't like this name calling.
Keep it to your self. A grown man should know when to keep his mouth shut.
And it's not like Paul was was performing the whole time and not flirting with leaving the club....
We'll just get dragged in a mud fight with Jose and it doesn't make too much sense.
Having Mourinho as a manager of United was like having Darth Vader marrying your daughter. How the hell people are still beliving in the Mourinho hype? Yes he was good in the past but the fact is that Madrid sacked him, Chelsea sacked him, Man Utd sacked him and I think he will not last long at Spurs. The same story in each of his last 3 clubs were he created a toxic atmosphere and creating conflict and losing the trust of the players. Fergie did alway´s think ahead and did not spend time admiring his past achivements but started to plan for the next season. Mourinho is quick to talk about his past but how long is it now since he was at his best?
You may be on to something. Ndombele did say he and Pogba had a convo about his challenges with Mourinho. Pog's got a mole!Pogba is such a smart lad, he knows the meltdown is almost ready to explode all over Spurs and he is just putting a bit of gasoline on the fire.
It still highlights his lack of communication if a player like Rooney was feeling like that. Imagine what Shaw, Martial, Rashford etc have gone through with this cretin.Rooney was shot though. Moving on from that period without any drama was one of the better things Jose did for the club.

Reminded me of this from Jose - "How to alienate your players 101"
No we dontNot much noise at all either way at the minute.
I hope he renews, we need him if we are to mount any type of challenge next season imo.

Well our title challenge hopes this season went up in smoke after he went down so I'd say he definitely doesn't hurt our chances...No we dont
The bold part is just unforgivable. It goes beyond being a fan of a manager or even of a club, it's just poor human standard.His virus was so contagious it reached this forum or revealed the mentality of people in this forum. When Mourinho was insensitive about Martial and his wives birth he had supporters in this forum. When his man management in regards to Martial, Rashford and Shaw was questioned everyone agreed with the Mourinho soldier, the hypocrite Lukaku about manning up. Everything about treating people write was thrown out the window.
I really dislike Mourinho but that's not quite fair.
He picked Pogba even when Pogba was badly out of form. During that period he tried him in various positions, talked him up when he was clearly terrible. He gave Pogba every chance on the pitch.
But Mourinho ignoring players who aren't selected or injured is true. He's pretty much said it himself, that's his approach. Who knows why he does it, there never seems to be an upside to it.

And some people here even today want this prick back.
I wouldn’t believe it if it was any other manager than Mourinho.Come on, you can't possibly think he told his players to throw a Champions League semi final.
That's a preposterous story.
But Phil Collins sang, "There's no need to be nice on the way up, 'cuz I'm not coming down!"I don't he says anything that other people haven't said or implied before.
There's an old saying 'be nice to people on the way up and they'll be nice to you on your way down'
Mourinho has always treated people badly and now he's on the skids people are going to stick the boot in.
. Where is logic in that? If they win, great. If they lose, he still can blame the ref. Even if they win, he still can say "we won despite the ref". Ridiculous story. People in their love/hate sometimes throw out any logic awayThis isn’t even that bad in relation to Mourinho. There’s a story that he told the Madrid players to throw the second leg against Barcelona in the CL semi final in 2011 so he could blame the ref for them losing the first leg. Apparently that was what really made Casillas not be able to stand him anymore.
In fairness it kind of was true. I remember Pogba getting absolutely dominated by Kante in a match (i think in an FA cup match) in his first season back at United and Jose said after the game that Pogba was the best player on the pitch, how brilliant he was etc when it really wasn't true. Kante dominated him. I felt Jose kept trying with Pogba and was trying to turn him into a different player but eventually lost patience.This is just not true
Rooney was shot though. Moving on from that period without any drama was one of the better things Jose did for the club.
Yeah, but we haven't won a single trophy since Rooney left. I feel like people really underrated his leadership and incredible experience due to playing at a top level since the age of 16.Rooney was shot though.

Yeah we do.No we dont
I was thinking the same but Mourinho has done it so many times that it's kind of satisfying seeing him get a bit of it thrown back at him.Think he'd rather himself got credited. Just an ego thing. Ole's left him on the bench a bit as well.
That and he seemed keen to get another Mourinho dig in about Luke Shaw's form.
Probably the least surprising thing ever that Pogba and Mourinho wouldn't like each other. Not really professional to criticise a coach even if its a former one, but then Mourinho has slagged off his own players to the media enough times that its also kind of fair game at this point.
Wazza is my favourite player ever so I am a bit biased. I just wish we could have kept him on a bit more, personally would have loved it if he retired with us but obviously he wanted to still try and play regular football, so it was always a difficult situation.His play from 2014 on was painful.
He’s a legend for sure but that last contract must have held us back from aggressively seeking out new options, to an extent anyway. The midfield thing was just the constant shanked ball out to Valencia. Aaarrgghh
