Mourinho is right when with one thing when he said we need Fellaini. We're so bereft of ideas and effort from many players. While I wish we didn't have to rely on him, he's shown great character many times while most of the others are sulking.
Lukaku though. Famed for just scoring against the small teams for Everton. Scored a lot for us last season has vanished completely this season. I'd love him to knock a few in against some of the lower teams. He looks heavy and is always stumbling around the ball. Benching him last night had no effect, he was dross when he came on and was treading water trying to run.
I think we need to bring in another striker in Jan to replace our 75 million paper weight. Any half decent one with experience will do. We can't afford to wait for Lukaku to reappear.

Tbf without the sound bites and rage celebration, he is left with nothing. Might as well entertain along those lines until he fecks off.
I think Jose's message about his record in Europe is a message to the board that we'll win the EL next season if we keep him.
Yep. Even when we've won, he's got such a chip on his shoulder, comes across so needy of praise, I don't know when exactly he became so insecure.
Look it might be totally different behind the scenes, and we often see him see him smiling with the staff and other managers, so maybe it's just for the media he puts on this misery act, or he just really hates them. But it's so grating and tiring to see, doesn't help the mood at all.
The chop.
As much as I want the cnut out of the club, equally the 333 Caftards who voted 'No' to his sacking should be named and shamed and banned from here.
Utterly shocking!

Yeah people with different opinions than yours are a disgrace. You should also keep in mind that this thread started back in August so I would assume most of the no votes came from earlier.
I voted yes btw.
The more it goes on the more I want him gone and the faster.
To be fair, he was being tame. I would have said, named, shamed and burned at the stake.
Personally, I can't wait for him to go , because this is all simply embarrassing. The football, the public rebuke of players, blaming the board, the fact we are not even close to getting the best out of this team, his comments and attitude... Just an embarrassment.
On paper we should have no shot in the next round unless we draw Porto or Schalke for example but in a tournament format anything can happen. We could reach the final on a complete fluke or sheer luck, I still dont want Mourinho at this club even then.
Please RedCafe,how can anyone see this and not think Mourinho has something to do with this?
He needs to get that chip off his shoulder.
Have to be trolling
You can't be serious.
No chance I could do another 3 years of bizarre line ups and watching lukaku and matic constant.
People need to drop the “SAF did this and that blah blah blah”. The guy is a one off, complete legend never to be repeated again. But for those of us who can remember he won nowt for 3 years and was a Mark Robins inspired win away from the sack v Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup

I never bother skipping work or family time to watch United anymore. The first time in over 30 years I’ve regularly missed games. Mourinho has just sucked the marrow out of everything I love about watching my team.
His football, public comments, man management, and behaviour are a complete embarrassment. I cannot wait for him to leave. I have never detested a manager as much as him. This season is a complete write off until he is sacked.

Well, even if he is trolling/WUMming, it's a shit attempt.
When we lose/draw it’s the players fault, when we win (playing pathetic footbal against the likes of Young Boys) he takes the credit acting like a clown.
Pathetic from Jose yet again!
I can’t wait for him to feck off!
We probably won’t challenge for titles with someone else in charge, but at least this all nonsense and the dire football Jose brings would stop.

Just to be clear - I wanted Mou when SAF left. Unfortunately the guy has turned the club toxic. I really don't understand why he has to moan about ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING and appears to accept zero responsibility for what happens on the pitch. The players look out of sorts and that has to be (at least partly) attributable to the demeanor of the Manager. The style of play is insipid/lacklustre/dull as sh!t
I've been watching and playing football for 40 years and I just don't understand why we cant play with fluidity and speed from the back (not to be confused with hoofing it up to Fellaini). I actually think we have the players to do it. Mou, release the handbrake please...... and turn the light off on the way out. Ta.

150% needs to go and if the board really cared about the club and the fans he would have been gone already. His tactics, his way of handling players, everything about him is rotten to the core.
Imagine the post match conference if Porto knocks us out.
"I sat here with Porto in 2004, Man United out."
You can really understand why the Mou boot lickers love their man. So relatable and down to earth is our Jose.
What a fcuking cock. Give me goofy, eccentric Van Gaal any day.
When we hired Jose, we knew he would take the limelight, we knew he would act like a clown and grab the attention.
We knew 2/3 seasons max in it would end badly.
That's what Jose does!
This is as much the boards fault as Jose's.
The players aren't playing for him, and haven't for some time.
The players could still put a shift in for the good of the club, but they don't.
Jose is going to leave, one way or another. he doesn't resign, he will make the board sack him. Its the only way this ends.
Jose going doesnt excuse the atrocious effort of our players though, they are accountable also

Was that to make me reverse my opinion?
Feck off with that crap. People are allowed opinions, even when they're wrong. Place stops being a discussion forum once anyone removes the right to have a differing opinion.
My vote is yes he needs to go, but I'm so over the people who just spread lies about Jose, just to smear him with their bile campaign. I do actually agree with certain points about people who want Jose to remain and they're well entitled to that opinion.
LVG bored me on the pitch with his tactics, but sure did provide a lot more laughs off it.
You know shit is bad when folks start talking about missing LVG!
The closing part of last nights after match interview sums up the man, so defensive and never going to change, he has had his chance and blown it. Please get rid now.
Bring back Aloysius!!! At least we would see more youth
So true
Why does Mourinho seem to hate stats all the sudden? Because all the stats make him look bad? Crazy that a modern day manager can hate stats the way he seems to.
"He won Europa!"
The fellow red I was watching with didn't even celebrate the winner. Just said thank God and asked if I wanted to watch the news. This level of apathy cannot go on.
I didn't really celebrate to be honest, what's there to celebrate really? We scraped past Young Boys at home. The comeback against Newcastle was great, showed heart, if you didn't enjoy that, stop watching. But I don't feel like a bad fan for barely reacting to Fellaini's goal.
Night and day with Klopp. Just seen his interview all relaxed and smiling. Our manager hurling bottles and going all manic
Klopp acts like a complete nutter often, do you not actually watch him? What a weird comparison.
This.
It was surreal moment, plenty (who were left) around us barely moved. Those who did were laughing. I think it's as bad than under LvG to be honest, perhaps slightly worse. I have no expectation now when I go the the ground, the football we play is dreadful, the manager is dull, 90% of the players don't care.
We are miles behind, and, it will take an almighty piece of luck with our next appointment / dealings in the transfer market to get us back to being, a) exciting b) competitive (i.e. not out of the title race before October). I personally can't see that happening, unless we take a huge risk with our next manager.
Also the attendances are dwindling hugely, plenty of empty seats last night, and it was clearing out well before 80 mins, you can pretty much get tickets for any game at the moment, and if memory serves me correctly they didn't even try to embarrass themselves by announcing how many people were there last night.
