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.
L'Equipe claims he is after a job at Lyon or Monaco
They gotta be lyon
Wonder how will he manage with not much money to spend and losing best players.
Surely not Monaco.. they are undefeated since Jardim returned
Imagine mourinho as solskjaers right hand man
Sure, he recently said his goal to coach as soon as possible, and win a Champions League.
The problem with Lyon is that they rely heavily on their academy and developing youngish players. If he is willing to adapt it could be a great opportunity for both because Lyon can spend a little bit, they have a very good academy and Mourinho could attract players with his name and reputation.
Never going to happen.
That's what I think too but if he was to sign for Lyon he would be in a unique position. At Lyon Aulas is the only man that matters everything is dealt with and by him, someone like Mourinho wouldn't have anyone to blame, no internal war to create other than going head to head with the boss. And that's a pretty bad idea.
He could find the ideal dream scenario for a manager with the most patient and friendly boss and he'd still find a way to fall out with everyone and create a depressing toxic atmosphere.
His big issue I think is he cannot relate to the modern player. He doesn't seem to like or trust any young player, he can't get through to them and he seems to actively dislike them. That's why I think he's finished at the top level.
I think he'll wait before taking up a job like Lyon, Monaco etc .Personally think he'll be at Inter next season.
Can't believe people think Mourinho to Lyon/Monaco is a possibility 
He will only go to PSG. He's going to promise he will win them the CL, that they are desperate for.

Could definitely see him taking either job with the aim of being the underdog that embarasses the big gun. and failing. He's finished at the top table.
He'll be off to PSG, couple of easy league titles then 3rd year implosion and a big payoff.
cnut.

Obviously he's going to PSG. The french press won't stop talking about it. And that's why Mou is going 100% "proud daddy" with Mbappé.
I still don't believe PSG are that desperate. Can't imagine Mourinho and Neymar working together.
I'm pretty sure that Tuchel will be at PSG next season that's pretty much PSG's M.O. And the french press don't really talk about Mourinho at PSG, currently the talk is about Lyon because they are supposed to announce whether Génésio stays or not by March 31.
Mourinho would never take that. At least three years and brace yourself for the meltdown while praying he wins the CL within the first two seasons.
There would be drama everyday at the Parc des Princes. I would pay to watch.
What’s bizarre is that his original contract with us was also a 3 year deal that was set to expire in the summer of 2019!
But good old Woody just couldn’t help himself and offered an extension already in January 2018. And we all know what happened next.
Sure, he will never take that.
No drama because, despite appearances, Neymar is a very professional player always highly-performing.There would be drama everyday at the Parc des Princes. I would pay to watch.
Mourinho is more concerned by players whose performances are irregular and inconsistent
Jose has always publically slated the french league saying it's no challenge and the quality is low. It'll be a pretty damning verdict of how far he's fallen if he takes a job there.
Yeah, that must be why Mourinho had problems with Ronaldo
Thought Tuchel was offered an extention.
I remember him watching Lille - Montpellier on 16th of Feb and looking quite depressed, for what it's worth..
Well, in Woody's defence, Mourinho's friends in the press had starting floating around rumours about (guess who?) PSG flirting around with Mourinho and I think the bluff worked.
This sounds like wishful thinking, you would really like to have him at PSG to win that elusive CL, won't you?
I'm not too sure Mourinho's only concern is about being professional and highly-performing, otherwise he wouldn't have lost three consecutive dressing rooms like he so spectacularly did. Would Neymar be convinced to track back and defend? Neymar doesn't look to me like the sort of player who would thrive under Mourinho's management. On the contrary, he could become irregular and inconsistent with Mourinho.
@Peyroteo could enlighten us about it.Yeah, that must be why Mourinho had problems with Ronaldo
In the next 2 years, I would like Tuchel to stay and make it happen.This sounds like wishful thinking, you would really like to have him at PSG to win that elusive CL, won't you?

In the next 15 years, I'm not against 12 months under Mourinho just to see what would happen
Would Mourinho really take a job like Lyon or Monaco? The chances of overtaking PSG in the league are virtually zero, the difference in resources are from a different planet. Don't see him in a job at a club that is such a big underdog.
I could see him go to PSG though.

Mourinho to Lyon is impossible for me.....they have already so many great young players in their squad and they have 4-5 outstanding prospects in their U19 team.
Tuchel is getting a 1 year extension.
There’s only one job in Ligue 1 that fits Mourinho and that’s PSG. No way would his first club after two sackings be one where he isn’t guaranteed silverwear fast.
I don't understand. Emery got sacked for going out of CL against an opponent levels above us. Why is Tuchel getting an extension?
PSG manager with no other objective than the UCL.
PSG didn't sack Emery, he left at the end of his contract.
Okay. Didn't know that. Why wasn't he offered an extension? I thought PSG looked a better side under him
The team wasn't playing well, the players didn't like him and the results weren't particularly good.
No at all. I am strongly disappointed for many reasons but the most important ones are:
(1) he lacked courage to make the right choices when necessary (see the case of Rabiot at Bernabeu)
(2) failed to have a good relationship with Neymar
(3) The 1st leg against Madrid last season and the 2nd leg against Barcelona one year earlier have shown his managerial and tactical skills.
He was paid to deliver at the European level and did not take the best of the team.
Yeah said before but PSG never really sack managers after one year. They usually give them two years to do something in CL (Emery was kept on after the Camp Nou disaster) so don't really see Mourinho waiting another 12 months, he'll pop up somewhere else in the meantime.
Said before I can see him going back to Inter, would he take the Milan job if offered or is that too much given how much he did with Inter in his spell there?
Probably not considering how often big names move from club to club in Italy.
