BBC were out of order releasing this speculation so soon after us winning the FA Cup.
You know the board is in a great mood, Richard Arnold just accepted my LinkedIn request
I imagine that was the plan before the leak. If this is a legit, of course.I don't think it's that, he probably just thinks it's classless to do it today rather than in a few days, which I actually agree with.

Obviously this is now the lead story in a way it wouldn't have been were it not for the leak, but it's not like we wouldn't have been discussing LVGs future tonight if it hadn't leaked. As soon as the season was over the decision (either way) needed to be made/confirmed.Some journos on twitter saying its from Mendes. Its not an issue of morality. Its an issue of respect. Just log on soxial media. 8 out of ten posts are about Mourinho. It shouldn't be like that on the day we wkn our dirst trophy in three year
Why? It's been reported for ages.BBC were out of order releasing this speculation so soon after us winning the FA Cup.
Absolutely.Disgraceful, there's no other word for it.
Because today is about winning the FA Cup not Jose.Why? It's been reported for ages.
What reason would they have to sit on such a big story from a journalistic point of view?
I agree but I would like to see him start a lot of matches next season also. This kid is sensational but hopefully he will improve learning from Ibra.He definitely shouldn't be playing every game like he is now. He's not a title-winning striker by a long way but he's very promising.
Learning under the likes of Ibra (if he comes) while playing the under-study striker will be massive boost for him I think.
You really think this is the first good news in moths? I mean we won the FA feckING CUP just a couple of hours ago and you really think this is the first good news in months? Talk about spoilt fans.My hero already
Finally the first god damn good news in months
MOURINHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO !!!!
They're journalists, it's their job to break stories.Because today is about winning the FA Cup not Jose.
Maybe to us United fans. What difference does it make to a journalist who's job it is to report the news when they get it.Because today is about winning the FA Cup not Jose.
Not so soon after our FA Cup win and certainly not before LVG knew about it.They're journalists, it's their job to break stories.
LVG has known about it for months.Not so soon after our FA Cup win and certainly not before LVG knew about it.
Yeah I know, just joking with the hyperbole. We need a new manager and Mourinho is the best one available. But it seems pretty pointless to leak it now if it's going to be made public in a couple of days.He's rightfully pissed off we didn't hire him after the 2-0 defeat at Stoke. Make no mistake, this is LONG overdue. Rejoice.
So they wait and someone else breaks the story, not what they're paid to do is it...Not so soon after our FA Cup win and certainly not before LVG knew about it.
Some just like to moan.So they wait and someone else breaks the story, not what they're paid to do is it...
Seems that waySome just like to moan.
Pretty sure he could've guessed something when he failed miserably to qualifu for the CL which was probably the very bare minimum.Not so soon after our FA Cup win and certainly not before LVG knew about it.
He gave us Martial.Who gives a single feck about him? It's just added to the whole winning the FA cup feeling for me. Why do people give a feck about Van Gaal? We've been fecking miserable under his tenure and he's a complete grade A cnut.
Feeling sorry for him is equivalent to stockholm syndrome.
But I thought it had been. In Spain. BBC said as such that they followed up the story from AS.So they wait and someone else breaks the story, not what they're paid to do is it...
That has no bearing on when they should break a story, nor should it. Morally, they probably should have contacted LVG before publishing it.Not so soon after our FA Cup win and certainly not before LVG knew about it.
You can teach someone to behave, but you can't teach them to be a winner.Yet some don't want him, although Twigginator is coming round to the idea!
A lot of people, including myself, would consider the BBC more official than some Spanish report.But I thought it had been. In Spain
Jesus fecking ChristHe gave us Martial.
He discovered Rashford.
His handling of De Gea created the possibility for what happened, he signed a 5 year contract.
He discovered talents like Fosu-Mensah and CBJ.
Bastian Fecking Schweinsteiger is still a good player for us.
He gave us the first FA Cup since 2004, Arsenal's record didn't last long because of him.
And he didn't sign stop gaps (whereas most managers would) in positions like CB and RW instead opting to use what he had and wait and target somebody of the highest level because he wants the club to have the best players in the world / best young players.

Can't believe that makes you miserable. What have you done for Manchester United that tops that?
As much as i hate the guy, Mendes would not do anything without some instruction from JM. I doubt he became the most powerful agent in world football by pissing off his big clients.I don't see it at all. He doesn't need to detract from LVG and from United tonight, it's going to be the major headline until the Euros start regardless. I'd believe it if we were managed by Wenger or Benitez.
It seems more likely that one of Mendes' entourage let something slip.
The idea that you would welcome this on the day that we won the FA Cup, it's ridiculous. If you've ever called another club's fans plastic, you need to take a look in the mirror.Absolutely.
How dare we hire a manager who almost guarantees us trophies.
I say, let LVG finish his contract, then re-hire Moyes for 2 years, before letting Giggs manage us for the next few years.
This weekend is about winning our first trophy in a while AND to usher a new era of trophy winning (with a manager whose sole purpose is to win).Because today is about winning the FA Cup not Jose.
