Mourinho extends contract to 2020 (option for a further year as standard)
- Thread starter Damien
- Start date
Delighted with this.
That's what getting Sanchez does. I think it's made is all smileGet in, he will not leave without the EPL trophy.
Also, he's smiling now compared to when he was announced.
This has pretty much been a perfekt week so far. First Sanchez, now Mourihno, add to that a lovely Swansea win over the scouse, and a win tomorrow and I will be buzzing for a week. I also won 12 pounds at the lottery
Great news. Really good statement from him as well. Onwards and upwards back to the top!
Woody killing it on this window. Great news!
The club dont want to get burned in case it all ends in tears. Hes never gone past 3 years
It's fantastic for stability going forward, we are definitely progressing. I think it's well deserved. Each window we are getting stronger, wiping out the dead wood as best he can. Depay, Bastian, Morgan and more will follow. I have complete trust in Jose bringing us back to the top. It's easy to forget how poor we were under the last two managers. We are now able to get the best players around now. In Lvg it was an unfocused mess in the market, while on the pitch we couldn't score a goal with his side to side rubbish. Moyes is not worth talking about. We look a well organized side that don't look like ever conceding much, one that is now starting to develop a class counter attack. He's tactically the best manager around in my opinion. He's a very intelligent coach, deserves way more credit.
He took over a side, mentally very week despite winning the FA cup. We have been building from the back in a pragmatic approach, maybe negative but pragmatic with a long term vision in mind. It's about getting a good foundation and building further up top then. He's gave us a defensive discipline and shape. If you just focus on being top heavy you win nothing i.e Klopp. A bunch of clowns pressing and then getting completely exposed at the back. At the start of the season we were blowing teams away goal-wise. It's still not perfect when you depend on younger players but the progress is starting to show. He's getting the correct age balance/leaders in Matic and now Sanchez. We are getting closer to having the perfect balance. We have seen it click at the start of the season, goalwise. I think one or two additions in the Summer and we are capable of winning any major trophy. I feel the ship is finally stabilizing since Fergie left and real success is coming. I'm very optimistic of what Jose and Manchester United can achieve in the future.

Yeah, I'm guessing the club is wary of Mourinho's third year history. In case things go south this means the compensation won't be insane.
Great news on the extension. I am happy, not ecstatic about the 1+1 year extension. I was hoping for a longer extension like at least a 2+1 would have signaled a bit more stability. It just shows how short-term football has become these days.
Going for a longer extension simply doesn't make financial sense with a manager. Good move all round for everyone involved.
This is even bigger and better news than the Sanchez signing. Fantastic.
Thats nice
Great news, lets see if he can break his cycle of being a genius then twat.

Great news, but im sure theres quite a few on here that wont be happy, do we need a poll?
Been some great news flow lately. Love it. Let's have a fun FA Cup run, Jose.
Magnificent news. Born winner. Perfect manager for us at this moment in time, and I'm sure will get us back to the top.
You happy @Wumminator ?
Excellent news.
Woodward's smile always gets to me.

Good news, De Gea next hopefully. These rumors have to end.
It was Pep or Money and he chose Money.
Great news though. Best manager in the world.

If I was a top manager I would only consider a three or four year rolling contract with built in salary increases. It is much better for the clubs stability and also protects the manager from financial hardship if he is fired. It also prevents any media speculation regarding contracts, which is a huge benefit for all concerned.
they can't help the salt. It's overwhelming.
Well done Woody now tie DDG down and keep hitting him with a wet lettuce until he agrees to sign a new contract.
Some very positive comments from him and it's the right way of extending contracts. 1+1. He seems happy with the transfers and the squad in general. We obviously have a long way to go but Sanchez signing will have a huge weight on everyone's mind (Jose, Pogba, De Gea) as much as it would on the pitch. I think it will clear a lot of doubts about our long term goals, it's clear that we are definitely on the way up and trying to get on the same footing as other football giants. We have an elitist touch to the squad with De Gea, Pogba and Sanchez potentially starting for everyone team in the world and with a lot of young talent and maturity in the right dose.
Hope he is here for a long time and we can continue getting better under him as I feel he is the best and the only right man for the job. We are perfect for him, he has a reign over everything and he is perfect for us.

Lovely Jubbly! We are slowly but surely rebuilding after a few years of neglect. Our signing lately are solid, show intention and people who said Mourinho is stubborn are in the wrong. He has no problem benching / selling his own signings or players out of form despite the opinions of the media or fans, On top of that he handled the Rooney situation in a superb way. Brought us trophies and made us competetive again. Good days to come people.
I think what it does mean is give us stability and that is very important when it comes to signing new players, who potentially like working with Jose, and renewing important contacts, like that of DDG.
Uncertainty in the work place can be a terrible thing (look at what's going on at Chelsea).
This news pleases me.
Psychological move that will tip ped over the edge into another meltdown when he knows he won't get any more time
Investing in local business. Well done United.
I was kind of expecting him to extend for slightly longer to be honest. But I guess it makes sense to keep rolling it while everyone is happy and keep the compensation package when he does eventually go to a minimum. Good news.
I'm just waiting for the city and a breaking announcement now that they have extended the contract with their turf provider to overshadow us yet again
Making sure he gets a nice payout if he gets sacked this year or next.
Excellent news.I"ve said it a thousand times before and I"ll say it again,there isn't a better manager available or attainable in the world.We have to stand by Jose and we need to give him the time and the space to bring some stability back to this club.
Delightful.
Great news.
I had the same worry but it feels that despite a few setbacks this and last season, Mourinho is actually growing into the job, instead of his usual fallouts with everyone everywhere.
We are also progressing in both squad quality and pitch performances, so I believe the tides are turning in ours and Jose's favour.
