Wee Jimmy LumsdenI want Moyesie back … Fred the Red. Phelan. Get the old band back together.
Steve Round and the three footballs he was always carrying under his arm for some reason

Can he cook chicken, might be an opening thereWe might have a janitor spot available
He’s been sacked in disgrace 4 times now since 2016, maybe he is the problem. Also Ten Hag has won the same trophy but I don’t think he’s the answer either. And Mourinho just has a Europa League with a historically soft run to it to cover up finishing 6th that season.If Jose (2 trophies) is the virus, what the feck does that say for the others?
Obviously those posts are absurd. Everyone knows that Moyes is the right solution, not Mourinho!Do people just have no memory at all? Or they think that because what we're doing now hasn't worked, trying something else that we already tried and also didn't work somehow becomes a good idea? Like if you fail your driving test by driving on the wrong side of the road, and then fail your next test because you forgot the difference between red and green, the next time you take the test you should try driving on the wrong side of the road again?
We must look elsewhere for sure, but if ETH somehow makes us play even worse and get the sack, I dont mind him as an interim till the season ends. At least he can grind out a few defensive wins. Not a glowing commendation though since I will take anyone other then ETH at the moment. Right now we cant attack and we cant defend. The football was also as dour as under Mou. Player discipline is at the worst cause it looks like no one respects the manager.I'm a big Jose fan.
I think he'd have been the perfect guy to take over from SAF when he left.
We'd certainly have won the league with an aging squad (something Jose likes - working with players in their 30s).
Even when he did come to us, I felt he needed back in his 3rd season, after he got 2nd place. But he wasn't backed and the rest is history.
I think Jose is now past his best and we must look elsewhere. And given that a lot of our squad members are under 30, this could be an issue for Jose.
It just wouldn't make sense for us.
It's insane.The fact people aren't against this
Johansson or DracarysI want to bang Scarlett
Am I stupid? You're the guy that was trying to make out Pep is only good because he's backed by money and arguing against him being one of the best, whilst waffling on about the unprecedented issues that Ten Hag has had to deal with. This was when it was mentioned that many posters considered Ten Hag in that bracket at one point. If you can be arsed then go back and read the thread, people were even laughing at the fact it was even up for debate.Are you stupid ?
I never said anything remotely of the sort.
When somebody makes a point about posters previously thinking that Ten Hag was in the same bracket as Pep, and other posters start trying to claim Pep isn't that great and Ten Hag is struggling because of issues he's had to deal with, in the same argument, and then persists over and over with that argument, then I can see what's up. He didn't have the nuts to say it but he and other posters clearly either still thought it, or were furious at being pointed out how wrong they were. Why anybody would start such a ridiculous argument otherwise just makes no sense.Classic @pocco making things up I see.
I think he was referring to Johansson and I didn't realize that until now.Johansson or Dracarys
We would need a proper defense for that.No thanks. We dont want negative defensive football
And he was given plenty of money when he was here to build that still didn't pull up any trees .We would need a proper defense for that.
Maybe your pisses are those long and satisfying ones but I remember Jose Mourinho stopping Gerrard's Liverpool from winning the league when they looked destined to win.I've had pisses at Old Trafford that have had a better connection with the club.
Because of FFP we can't fill Jose's minimum requirememts, loads of money to spendMaybe we could get him back as assistant to Ole
Only way we will ever get a proper defense is if we clone Rio and Vidic.And he was given plenty of money when he was here to build that still didn't pull up any trees .
Good point.Man is still box office. 15 pages in few hours.
In fairness, I would argue that this has happened during his previous reign, as evidenced by the clubs he had to join afterwards and what United have won since.But the special one and the biggest club in the world falling off a cliff together would also be one hell of story... A lot would enjoy it. Manchester United and Mourinho both have a lot of people who love to see them fail.
Here’s me saying exactly why I was discussing Pep in an ETH thread. Absolutely nothing to do with comparing their abilities on any level.I am not defending ETH by discussing Pep. I am actually just discussing Pep becasue people over inflate his ability. The only reason I am discussing Pep in ETH thread is because people are over inflating his ability in general, none of this defends ETH or excuses him, I am just fed up with the sycophantic love affair many in football have with silver spoon Pep.

You'd get little support from anyone worth their salt in the football world with your arguments. You waded in when I made a point about people putting ETH in the same bracket as Pep, trying to argue that Pep is only good because of the money he's had. Obviously your argument got pulled apart in the end, and you did start claiming Ten Hag has had issues to deal with in the same argument. So it was clearly construed as you trying to argue the point by not just myself, though I suspect you've got your tail between your legs now and realise how daft you sounded.
Gotta be honest, there is a part of me impressed how comitted to you are to this horseh*t.When somebody makes a point about posters previously thinking that Ten Hag was in the same bracket as Pep, and other posters start trying to claim Pep isn't that great and Ten Hag is struggling because of issues he's had to deal with, in the same argument, and then persists over and over with that argument, then I can see what's up.

But yeah, classic. Ha ha. Good one pal.
100% spot on, horrible toxic manager. Some posters amaze me. His signings were almost as bad as ETH. Basic football and tended towards Ole style low block even against poor teams.Is there any remotely legit source saying this?
He is an incredibly toxic personality who deliberately sabotages the club and players when he doesn't get things his own way. That by itself should immediately invalidate him in everyone's eyes, and it amazes me there are some who want him back. His shit playstyle that is pretty much the opposite of every club in the world that is having consistent success over the last decade, and the fact he's having to continue to drop further down the 'pecking order' of clubs (and continuing to fail there) makes it even worse.
I'm sure he'd happily come back if we offered him the job since no top team in the world will touch him with a 10 foot pole anymore. But thankfully we obviously won't offer it to him.
It is final. You play for the win. He detected that they can't deal with our height and strength and used it. Ajax was attacking team that year and praised for their performances. Well, they were nowhere seen against us in that game. That final was one way game from minute one. Without stress or panic.Our EL win under Jose was one of the worst games of football I've ever seen. We did nothing but kick the ball into the air all night to make the game as messy as possible.
Football at its worst.
