In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.
I don’t understand, which part of this is meant to be him being bitter? I’m not reading it that way.
What constitutes a good penalty taker surely is his goal-to-attempt ratio rather than how many chances he gets? In Mourinhos world, if Bruno scored 100 out of 100 penalties he wouldn't necessarily consider him good at it, because he got 100 attempts? Flawless logic, Jose.
He’s literally saying he’s one of the best in the world at it.
Scenes when Bruno wins the golden boot next season purely from penalties.
We've all gone through this phase mate, having to force ourselves to believe he's some evil mastermind brilliant wind-up merchant who thinks deeply and very carefully before he speaks.
In 18 months he'll be in charge of some other club and he'll have an unprovoked pop at Spurs, and you'll be in here like; "what a bitter old man"
You look like old man who is obsessed with us and keep repeating the same thing everywhere, fecking hell take a break.
He is a very sad man pretending he is still in control. One of the worst downfalls i've seen from a manager.
Is he actually funny, though? I hear this often. I heard it when he walked around the Allianz in Italy holding three fingers in the air.
“What a laugh is our Jose”. Really, he just looked like a massive penis.

That is true to some extent. Maybe previously he had that going for him without VAR. But with VAR it somehow favours the offensive because an obvious foul in the box will be punished. More time spent in opposition box higher chances of getting a pen. The more time spent defending in your own box the higher chances you will concede a pen.He doesn't get why we got so many penalties.
The concept is so foreign to him.
That's what happen when you play more attacking creative football and more flair players.
Wish he would start improving and adapt his football, but he won't, too stubborn with his narcissistic beliefs.
Don't worry, his fans will argue it's a good looking penis.
Someone send this to Mourinho
Bad winners can fall on the fact that they're winning though.
Bad losers can fall on..... nothing
Mourinho's digs are better when he's more successful or at least competing for league titles.
He was with us for two and a bit seasons and some of you still don;t get his sense of humour? Those comments are completely tongue in cheek. He loves United.
The irony is incredible here. You lads are the ones starting new threads when Jose makes a comment about Utd. How many pages is the Jose Mourinho Spurs Manager thread at now (104)? It's you lot that are obsessed with him. At least I have an excuse to be interested as he is now my team's manager.
Those three fingers seems to be his thing. Remember the press-conference after we lost 3-0 at Old Trafford? He hold those three fingers up, meaning he had won three Premierships and therefor demanded respect.
Eh? In the biggest ManUtd forum, thread on ex manager is created and that too when he spoke about current ManUtd player but somehow Spurs fan on Manutd forum is saying we are obsessed
Looks like middle stage of Josetites when you can't see the logic when it slaps you right on the face.
This is special to this place in my experience - I don't know what it is about Utd fans but you guys love to talk about the past way more than any other fans I have come across (apart from Liverpool fans who are possibly just as bad). Past players, past managers - you guys never let stuff go.Eh?

It is difficult to understand, when you have a history like Manutd.
You dont go to Vietnam and not see people talk about the war.
The past is used to drive future success.
Obviously, as Spurs fans, there is not past to talk about.
How great is it when Mourinho isn't your manager 
I find the saltiness entertaining
Moyes on the other hand is deluded beyond belief

Did you just compare a war that killed 1300000 people and it's people still talking about it there (no shit) to Man Utd fans obsessing about past managers and players? I actually don't know what to say to that. I'm stunned.
King of the trolls.
Exactly. If he ever let us attack he would have won some penalties too, a possibly still have a job here.
Still, we know he's a gobshite who loves headlines. I don't think he's genuinely deluded the way Moyes is.
Same, just seems like a bit tongue-in-cheek to me. A bit of a wind up, and it's clearly worked, judging by this thread.
Football fans are pretty good at displaying how thin their skin is if shit like this gets them rattled.
In any case, we are not obsessed with history of Jose, we are more relieved that he is being salty for another team and not us.
We are allowed to have a laugh on him.
Siri, play Mourinho celebrating earning a Europa League spot
Eh? When some cnut of a manager talks about ManUtd, it will be discussed. It's same in every forum.
ManUtd have huge history with academy players so yes we talk about them.
If you think there will be lot of love for 3 fingered twat then you are in wrong place and thread.
But are you rattledSiri, play Mourinho celebrating earning a Europa League spot
fecking hell even if Jose farts, few will tell how it's a mind game. Not sure when these guys will realise that he is a classless git.
When we were winning things, there were some scousers who genuinely thought that SAF was 'running the FA' and was paying the referees to give us decisions.
I think it's great. Shows that we are back in the heads of our rivals, even if Spurs are and always will be small beer to us.

He will find literally any excuse for others doing better than him, and when he manages something good it's the best thing since sliced bread.But are you rattled

If the young Jose went forward in time and saw himself now he'd be massively embarrased, i'd actually say he's turning more and more into Wenger every day.
This. 100%How great is it when Mourinho isn't your manager

Yeah, when he was at ManUtd, he used to talk about how good other teams are and how good other team scouts are. Praised teams who invested money saying how good their ambition is and then praised Spurs who didn't spend a penny saying how ambitious they are by not selling any player.
He twists everything that suits his agenda and how hard his job is, luckily for him people follow him like a sheep.
What great mind gamez!
Mourinho is an ex United manager who is also one of the best managers Portugal had ever had. His words carry a certain weight. You'll expect him to learn about the consequences of his poisonous tongue. After all he's the one who got sacked after losing his third consecutive dressing room.
Throughout all my life I can't think of any United January signing who had just an immediate impact to the magnitude of Bruno Fernandez. Its amazing really considering the horrible debuts the likes of Vidic and Evra had. That deserves respect. Instead Mou had intentionally or unintentionally (I'd say the former) tried to mock him and United's achievements.
Time ends up beating everyone even the finest managers in the world. However there are those who retire gracefully like Wenger, Lippi, LVG and Sir Alex did and those who go out kicking and screaming. If he's not careful then Mourinho risks being hired by tv companies to be that old man who yells at the clouds while managers and players try hard not to laugh at his face. I've seen that happening with Sacchi and its not nice.

Two different sides to this debate, the bitter camp and the joking camp...unless we can find a video of Jose saying these comments it won't be settled.
If Spurs play slow, lumbering, dirty defenders against our triplet of fast, skillfull attackers then I guess they'll concede penalties. Mourinho needs to sort out his issues : get some fast, agile, clean defenders.
Expected overreaction.This is as big an issue as you make of it. Weird how wound up fans can get, 3 pages on a statement that's best ignored. He wanted to wind us up with that comment and its worked by the look at this thread.
I’m sure his comment was for the Internet forums.
At the end of the day, he made another comment about our club, a bit like the previous one.
I’m sure we will live.
