That is some monumental agenda based kneejerk assessment. Games have ebb and flow and the moment we have a slight moment and we get this response.

Hope this helps.

Completely agree.

That's just a brilliant summation and take of the game. This is a steadying and morale boosting performance that hopefully sands off any lingering kinks out. We've had nail-biting games like these during SAF's reign and while it's definitely nice to see its return, it may not something we want...

Cheers. That's great way to look at this. Context is important. This is clearly not a black and white situation. Football has slowly become agenda driven and is filled with impatience and desire for instant gratification.

United is at its best when the vultures are circling and everyone is out for its blood. Hopefully, this is the United that comes out next week and beyond. We needed a catalyst to jump-start the season. And maybe this is it. Adding more pressure and making big changes in mid-turmoil is not going...

That is absolutely true. That and the very urgent and overwhelming drive that is impatience and the rise of the quick-fix.

He probably didn't because he surely didn't get the reception Mourinho is getting right now after 3 games. Which is exactly what i'm trying to say. Give the manager the room to work things out and not immediately try to force a quick fix by sacking him.

This was not a rose tinted situation that I highlighted. Overcoming adversity is not rose tinted situation. Not giving up is not a rose tinted situation. United is infamous for not giving up. That IS who we are. That's part of our DNA. And right now, we are in danger of losing that. I'm not...

Just to add another perspective - During the 92-93 Premiership under Ferguson, right at the start we lost to Sheffield Wednesday 1-2 and then lost again to Everton 0-3. The next game we drew 1-1 to Ipswich Town. Should we have sacked Ferguson then? Bear in mind, we won that season in the end...

It'll be very amusing indeed if Herera develops a superstition where he needs to spit on City's crest every time they meet to win the game.

If I'm not mistaken, I remember when we first got Ronaldo, SAF was saying that he would not use him too much and play him only when it's appropriate because very young players on the world stage burn out quickly when not managed well. They needed constant close attention and fine adjustments...

Well, so is Mourinho. Tres candid without a garment sheathed in sucrose. :)

It's nothing to do with insecurity. He has kept quiet plenty of times - which ironically ignited assumptions that he may be unhappy or is morose about being in United. What he did was stop people from continuing to perpetuate lies or untruths of a situation. It must have got tiring at this...

Knowing Mourinho, that's a ticking time-bomb that he left for Boer to ignite. He either let's it be and be known henceforth as a 7-0 with Zero Goals loser or corrects it out loud that he only lasted 4 games before getting the shaft. Simply beautiful.
