The Manchester United Thread

25 minutes and you can already abandon all hope that the man has changed.

Why take an unnecessary shot at LVG? Did they have a falling out or something because they were very close no? Seems petty to me like how he did the same at Benitez when he took over at Chelsea. Although the Benitez one was still slightly more understandable as they have been traditional enemies

He basially said he wouldn't hide behind talk of philosophy. This is a point that ****** off United fans no end. We are sick of that word.

Behave mate will yer. (Paraphrasing) 'Some managers haven't won a title in 10 years' ..... It was a flat out dig. Same before it at LVG. And bringing up he's at the biggest club in England ..... You're just starting out as Utd manager. Why even go down that road? Cringe worthy.

He was funny and fresh when he first arrived. Now he's just a tiresome caricature of that. Top manager no doubt but there's no need to be a blert all the time. And this is in friging July. What's he gonna' be like come the season's start?

He actually extended beyond that point too. Some have won nothing, we arent here to sit around, but to win everything
 
wait I'm sorry, are people actually annoyed he called United the biggest club in England?

Not in the slightest. It's a moot point and we're the last ones that would ever effect being as you still trail behind us in those big silvery things. ;). :P.

It was just the fact he felt the need to say that. It's as cringe worthy as Moyes with the 'Peoples Club' line. You're on the first 'official' day of the job at Utd. And even that's not enough? He just can't resist being a *** and trying to feel superior to massage his ego.

But again that's Mourinho doing Mourinho stuff. Just thought he'd wait more than a day this time to try start winding people up.
 
Well, classic José. I have nothing against him bar this Wenger obsession. It's like clinging on to an old GF.

It's not even close to being cringeworthy, and it's arguably true.

Whatever floats you guys boat.

But it's what makes him so disliked outside of the club he manages. Great manager. But a complete blert to go along with it.

Pep said it at Bayern, Klopp called Liverpool one of the greatest clubs. Clearly they are both blerts then.

Seriously. You want to seriously compare Klopp and Mourinho's opening pressers?

No, I don't think we should either.

Just because he's now Utd manager doesn't mean his schtick is suddenly fun again to everyone else that's tired of it.

That half line is the only thing I raise my eyebrows at, but then it's nothing Ferguson wouldn't have said, have we forgotten the old United-Arsenal games, best modern rivalry we had. It's the more extreme Madrid behaviour I don't want to see.

No I compare the very line you're complaining about. Try again.

Mate, again. whatever floats your boat. Sure you'll love him pulling his **** the same way Chelsea fans once did when he was there manager.

Everyone else, not so much.

So you've avoided the point you raised then. Moving on.

That press conference wasn't for anyone else but the United fans, and press who were there. Dont like it? Don't listen.
 
This would be like me getting annoyed about Guardiola wanting City to dominate. He's not talking to United fans, he's talking to City fans. He's setting the tone for his fans, and it's not going to be anything that's going to make me happy, not is it intended to. So why would I get offended.

I haven't avoided jack save for not arguing. What do you want me to say exactly? Watch the two introductionary pressers and try compare both.

And nobody's getting annoyed. Just pointing out his **** is tiresome.
 
lol, those digs are not that bad. He's capable of doing some serious ****. Those digs are entertaining. You're giving him **** because he had meltdown at Chelsea and he's now a Man United manager.

People have definitely forgotten the **** Ferguson gave out, and how much he would pick at Benitez. Every manager has their demon.
