Jose Mourinho to PSG?
- Thread starter Paxi
- Start date
I don't think i'd mind anymore, i'd rather watch us scrap for 4th under an attacking(Positive) manager than scrape 2nd place watching this stuff week in, week out.
I wouldn't be too sad at all, obviously dependent on who we get in to replace him.
Who would we actually be able to bring in? I don't think he leaves at the end of this season personally, but other than Ancelotti, who is available?
I can't see it. Since his star has risen he's only ever been concerned with the biggest challenges in the biggest leagues. Why would he go to Ligue 1?
Edit: I also don't think he'll leave voluntarily until he feels he's succeeded here.

i'd be alright with that
Because they have unlimited funds and a shit League. Where else will he go to win after this?
Hope he goes. He was never loved here.
He’s used to winning Championships. Maybe his ego has taken a bit of a battering and the pressure to deliver top trophies is starting to tell.
It is hard to compete with the oil clubs.
Maybe he thinks he has a better chance of winning the Champions League with PSG.
After London, Madrid and Milan, maybe his family misses living in a fancy city.
Statements like this never make sense. So you are telling me you would prefer to be like Arsenal rather than actually win. Finishing 2nd is any day better than 4th , with or without attacking. Furthermore we have scores second highest number of goals in the league so yes we have been efficent in attack.
It would be interesting what he has to say about Woodward and the Glazers after. Whether they backed him to the hilt or not. He's not the type to keep his mouth shut, Jose.
@SirAF You ok?
You ok?He’s had more than enough backing, if he fails it’s on him.
Give me a break man, I never started watching United because they won pots, they played good football and i'm not enjoying watching us.. still, long after LvG.
Obviously i'd like to get in a decent, capeable man to replace him, not any old bum, but Christ I can't tell you how much I miss watching good football.
I can imagne why Jose would want to go there. But PSG...I'm not sure that they want him.
Be a massive blow to see him leave, despite what people think he'd made huge progress in his time here.
I'd be disappointed if he jumps ship, and people will say that Man City and Pep ran him out of Manchester. Can his ego take that?

We've played some good, free flowing football this season. You don't get it every game, we never have.
Can't see him leaving as this was more likely his dream job after all. I bet Guardiola will be first to leave Manchester as he has serious trouble dealing with constant pressure.
Surprised so many would be fine with it. Whether they like him or not, there's few better than him. I don't see who else can realistically take on Pep and win. Allegedly Fergie's successor was 5th or 6th choice. After that the best we could get was Van Gaal. Mourinho is far and away the best we've had since, and I struggle to see how we can improve on him in the foreseeable future.
He's been backed here probably more than anywhere else bar his first Chelsea stint.
There's one thing to say you want our team to play attacking football and there's another thing to say you prefer us to finish 4th than 2nd. That's why I said your post didn't make sense. Results and style of football goes hand in hand. If your style doesn't bring good results then your style is shit, no matter how much attacking or defensive football you play. Wenger has been so called attacking manager and yet his style is pathetic considering their results.
It would be a new perspective. Top pedigree manager leaving United for bigger and better things.
But he's contracted to us for another year so I can't see him leaving until summer 2019

I knew last night these kind of posts will be out today! We lost yesterday, remember?
This is what i also feel. People are taking things for granted. Jose is a winner and if he doesn't win a league title for us then I fear when will we win next. Jose must be backed and if he still fails then we can decide on replacing him.
If its true then maybe hes thinking he can he will win the league again there and everything will look good again on his CV. He will have a much easier ride there than here. The fact hes living out of an hotel has always made me think hes only here for the short term.
Agreed, outscoring only 19 of the 20 teams in the league so far is unacceptable. We've finished 7th, 4th, 5th and 6th in recent seasons, logic dictates that we should be doing a lot better than second in the points and scoring tables right now.
If this thread means all the mourinho moaning can be kept in here then I'm all for it. Stockpile all nonsensical misery in here
I really hope he doesn't go to PSG, I don't want him in Paris. He's not my kind of coach and I don't think he would get the best out of players like Neymar and Mbappe. If it wasn't for City's history-making form so far this season, he would be lauded for how he's turned United around in his second season. It would really be a stain if he's gone after only two years.
Dreadful post, lacks any depth or insight, solution, alternative or sense. It's just another of a million pretty vague sound bytes. I take it you'd be ok with giggs taking over if this is how you feel. He'd be guaranteed 100% to be an attacking manager.
Terrible news if true, who else is out there that can replace him and do a better job? This will set us back a few more years again!
Carlo Ancelotti
Not sure why he’d want to leave - does he not want to beat Pep to the title?
I wanted Jose as Man Utd manager and I still do, it'd be a big blow for him to jump ship, especially as we'll likely be left with players the next manager doesn't want. I think he's building something positive here, he needs January fast to bring in a few new faces and get rid of some old (Blind, Darmian & Mkhitaryan).
I've thought since he mentioned PSG and them playing great football etc etc in that interview that he'll jump ship there at the end of this season. The PSG owner is crazy about winning the CL, all PSG need really is a solid defence and as we know, Jose is the man for that. In Paris he'll also be away from the comparisons to Pep and the circus around all that. I also can't see us giving him the budget that he needs to match City, last summer was our chance to bridge the gap and we fell very short of doing so.

Knee jerk. The author was just waiting for a prime moment to publish that article to get maximum effect from it. Pure click bait.
That would be the biggest mistake by our Club since Fergie retired.. Mourinho is the best and most known manager we could imagine to succeed at current tenure at the club we all love and loathe. The fact that some of you wish him gone only because some of our players have been abysmal at times, it's really really sad.
I didn't say we haven't made progress under him, and i'm thankful for that, i'm not oblivious to the fact.Agreed, outscoring only 19 of the 20 teams in the league so far is unacceptable.

The point still remains for me, my heart is telling me i'm not enjoying watching United play, it's been a really difficult last few weeks in particular watching our games, City, Bournemouth, last night are all fresh in the mind, maybe it just feels worse right now.
Nah, I didn't say anything about Giggs or someone with no experience taking over, I can see Mou is a quality manager...
But I don't enjoy watching us play football, it's that simple, I just don't enjoy watching us play, it's not a crime to admit that, ta.
It would be a disaster if we lost him. Mourinho haters should be careful what they wish for.
This article was released yesterday before the game. I remember reading about it in the twitter transfer thread.
edit: I'm wrong, ignore me.
