The Manchester United Thread

Apparently he asked to leave due to personal reasons. Sevilla have said no he has contract with them till 2020 and he only wants to leave to join another club and no other reason. They confirm he can buy out his contract in an agreement or he has a clause clubs can pay to get him. It is 5m euros. Everyone reporting on this now won't post anymore tweets as don't won't to upset anybody.
 
DoF rumours seem like BS, would Mourinho even accept working with one? I know he had one in Chelsea, but this is different as United were clearly desperate to get Jose on board.

Would they want to work with him and his attitude seems just as valid a question?

He's had one at every club he's been at. He's not interested in the finances as much, and a DoF doesn't stop him making his specific choices. It does mean the club can carry of with general targeting.

United wanting a DoF isn't so much linked to Jose as to a general indication Woodward hasn't been getting it right.

Eh? Jose didn't fall out with any of his DoFs bar Emenalo, whose choices have shown up thus far to be susbstandard.

He had his problems at Chelsea with Arnesen and the Russian his first go around.

But it's more his general attitude the past year I was alluding to and how that may of damaged his rep/ hindered him right here and now.

For the most part they got on. It was only when Roman began interfering that it got frosty, ie personally bringing in Shevchenko.

Think people are vastly overplaying the last year when it comes to Mourinho tbh, when you compare it to his career. When you listen to Zlatan, who played with him for one year, it's clear it means nothing for example.

Yeah, probably not. He's still a World Class manager regardless who's only a year removed from being an English champion when all said and done.

Just an interesting one to watch develop early and I can see why anyone would be asking the question after how it rolled last year more off the pitch than on it.

Pep forced out an extremely popular and excellent doctor at Bayern. No one hesistates if he says he wants them. Because's he's frankly one of the best. As long as they think he is one of the best they will come.

Umm, pretty sure he had power struggle with Valdano in Madrid, no?

Not over players. That was Madrid being, well, Madrid. Jose didn't back down, and in typical form hit back viciously. Neither come off well from it. But that was down to classic board interference. Valdano wasn't a DoF. Not that it stopped him interfering with transfers.
 
Emenalo is the one I would say he fell out with. Never really fell out with Arnesen, more that Arnesen went along with Roman's meddling.

I would worry about Woodward's medding, but he's so in awe of Jose, he'll simply throw money instead.
 
Now people are asking whether DoF wants to work with Jose because of previous year? lol, if you believe these people they will say Jose was Hitler's right hand man.
 
Just been watching the highlights from the 8-2 win vs Arsenal.

I miss that Rooney

What makes you suggest he fell out with Emeleano? Only asking because the situation and decision-making process is so opaque at Chelsea, no one can even figure out where it all went wrong this season
