Put £10 on 1-1. That was 11/2 so got £65 off that. Then put £10 on Lingard first goal in extra time at 17/2 so got £95 off that. So £160 in total

Lots of people worrying about Rashford. He will be fine, he's shown he's the real deal, if anything we need a forward to take the pressure off him.
 
Anyone knows Mourinho favoured formation I remember him using 433 a lot in his first stint at Chelsea and at Inter. Then more 4231 more later on at Madrid. Or does it just depend on the oppo?

4-2-3-1 is kinda like his standard formation

In my opinion we will be looking for a new manager within three seasons of Jose Mourinho appointment.
Bang goes youth setup at United, the Glaziers will be getting their cheque book again.
In my belief the United board have been very short sighted and not looking at the bigger picture.
Plus I can't believe how unprofessional the board been over Louis van Gaal, they could have waited at least couple of days after the cup final.
Jose Mourinho should pay a commission fee to the press boys and girls who have been touting him for the job all season.
Yes I'm very p****d off fan.

He doesn't necessarily have a 'favourite' formation, but lately he certainly seems to favour a 4-2-3-1/4-1-4-1 and I image he'll be utilising that at United.

were you peed off with the board when they did the same to Moyes with LVG?

It depends. If you're getting Mourinho Mark I (Chelsea 04/07) then you're in good hands, but if you're getting Mourinho Mark II (Madrid/Chelsea 13/15) then you're still in good hands but only for three seasons. Also most sources state that the 'leak' wasn't from United's camp, it was from Jose's, i.e. Jorge Mendes.

No not as much. David Moyes wasn't good enough for the job, but he should have given more time. David Moyes was always going struggle with the job anyway being the first manager after Sir Alex.
LVG might have not been the right man also, but don't want Jose, I can't argue with Jose's CV. Of course I will give him the benefit of doubt that he might change his ways towards youth.

Hopefully with Mourinho coming in he releases the possession shackles and we see more shots from outside the box or just in general and we can get more from the likes of Memphis, Herrera etc and the performances of the other new signings Schniederlin, Darmian improve.
 
Apparently there is a reliable QATAR source claiming Ibrahimovic is going to move there, wouldn't surprise me, mega money.
 
This squad doesn't need much work, 2-3 good transfers and it should be ready to challenge. Remember you were leading the league in October before the injury meltdown. Last months when most of the squad was avaiable again were also solid, 8 wins in last 12 games is nothing to scoff at.

Add a pacy RW, a proper striker to rotate with Rashford, and it's good to go.

Exactly. It's important to not lose perspective considering how many personnel we lost, repeatedly, over the season. We still need to add to the core of the team, but it's not a rebuild job.
 
Sportsbladet in Sweden report that Zlatan Ibrahimovic could join José Mourinho at Man United. As ASSISTANT MANAGER
