I don't know why but I find great pleasure in watching the press conference presenting Moyes and then immediately watching the Mourinho one.
Mourinho's press conference
- Thread starter LawCharltonBest
- Start date
-
In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Until we woke the dragon (leicester)
Sounds like Bailly will play centre half, as expected.
He's dividing Rashford by Ibrahimovic. I'm confused 
Interesting how he says, "Our two strikers" about Rashford and Zlatan; not mentioning Rooney.

18+34/2=26. he is saying the ages of our strikers complement each other because one has youth while the other has experience.He's dividing Rashford by Ibrahimovic. I'm confused
Mourinho said philosophy.
Was this during the MUTV interview? Don't remember this from the press conference.
That was music to my ears. He's not going to focus on getting back to the Champions League, he's not going to focus on getting 4th place; he's going to focus on winning. That there is the right mentality that will hopefully filter down to the squad. Something that has been lacking for, what, three seasons?
Lovely dig at Van Gaal and his philosophy, poor fellow. Encouraging to hear him talk about his preference for specialist players over multi-tools, perhaps another dig at Van Gaal? It was a relief to hear everything he said concerning Rooney. I understood the implication is that Rooney will be a number 10; thank God we won't have to see him labour in midfield, not too much anyway. This could be the end of wingers as full backs, play makers as centre halves and clearly the end of strikers in midfield. Normality seems to be resuming it's rightful place at home, let's hope for normality in the league too
"I don't hide that I chase Sir Alex records [in Champions League]"
"I was never very good at hiding behind words, and hiding behind philosophies."
"What is playing well? Playing well is score more goals than the opponent; is to concede less goals than the opponent; is to make your fans proud because you give absolutely everything."
"I don't want the players to start the season thinking we have to do better. What is to do better? To do better is to finish fourth? To finish fourth is not the aim."
"There are some managers that the last time they won a title was ten years ago. Some of them the last time they won a title was never. The last time I won a title was one year ago...So if I have a lot to prove, imagine the others."
"I am the manager of the biggest club in the Premier League."

I think Jose will give kids a chance if they are exceptional like TFM and Rashford, he will not just play kids to keep the legacy going, for the sake of it. It is great giving kids a chance, but if they really are not that good, it does not do the team any good. Some who played last season were great in their first game, but when they got another chance they were poor.
Mourinho done his MUTV interview yet?
This bloke having a go at May for mispronouncing José 
He's all over the placeThis bloke having a go at May for mispronouncing José
Christ.This bloke having a go at May for mispronouncing José
Christ MUTV is cringey. So embarrassing to listen to.
Tuanzebe going on tour
Says he will work with Nicky Butt and the academy to give chances to youth players.
Sounded alright, the press will try and make out certain things he said as something else, a couple of points i.e the promotion of 49 kids from various academy's sounds a bit fanciful coming from him but I wouldn't know for sure and the point he made about United being the biggest club in the UK, while that is obviously true he should of said "the world" so that's a black mark against him for me, could do better as my teachers often said, that and "Oi! You little shit stop that now!"
Is the MUTV interview online anywhere?
fecking muppet itks calling in
Any videos of the interview? I've looked around and not found anything on Youtube yet.
I wasn't going to watch the PC as it sounded like a good one so didn't need to, but I'm glad I did, was even better than I thought going by the descriptions from other posters.
Great bits about Giggs and Rooney, well everything really, absolutely no bs, I'm the boss and this is what I want, fantastic

Really liked his answers and I think he will manage to bring a winning spirit back into the team. Looking forward to the start of the season now.
Any links or video of the mutv interview yet?"I can officially confirm, this player is Matuidi"
"i got the text from me mates up in france""I can officially confirm, this player is Matuidi"
I'll upload the interview early in the morning
Do the players return to training tomorrow?
I'd give it a little while yet.
When he has managed and been in gigantic pressure cooker situations like Real Madrid, trying to conquer a freak of nature in the pep's Barcelona and managed to do it, why should he then come to United where the defending champions are leicester city, why not look to win? Jose has been through it all, any manager like Jose manages real madrid, he is not coming here to bring a philosophy, but to win. Its much like top strikers that come to clubs to score goals, same has Mourinho his goals is trophy's. Biggest clubs in england and europe don't look to finish 4th, one reason why real madrid have 11 european cups their mentality is to winThat was music to my ears. He's not going to focus on getting back to the Champions League, he's not going to focus on getting 4th place; he's going to focus on winning.

I think he said Thursday in the interview.
Thanks for the post. Just reading his interview makes my heart pumped up for next season. Really can't wait!That was music to my ears.

What jacket is he wearing
Not normally impressed by that kind of teamwear, but it somehow looks great on JM.
