I'd rather have a nasty **** that wins things than a fine splendid fellow who doesn't.
Plus I think what he has said must of worked considering people are raging about it already. Honestly nothing in that press conference was even bad by Jose's standards. Plus it's true... top managers like Wenger have not won a title for 10 years but has kept his job and Mourinho is under pressure for not winning a title in the last season. Different standards.

I think the point Scouse was making is that it was his first press conference. Why start making unnecessary digs at past and opposing managers before the season has even begun? You could understand it if he made them before he was playing Arsenal or Wenger made a swipe but now it just seems he is trying to pick fights when there are none.
And before any of you lot accuse me of double standards, I said the exact same thing when he criticized Benitez for winning Europa League in his first Chelsea press conference.

This makes no sense, you criticised Mourinho for having a dig at Benitez.... bit hypocritical considering how your fans were towards him during his whole spell pretty much.

Wigan playing both Utd and L'pool at home on consecutive days?
Strange situation.
Strange situation.
Did anyone see the MUTV preview of the interview with Mourinho being shown tonight on MUTV at 18.30?
It was a short 30 second clip talking about Ibrahimovic and Rashford, they are both not at the perfect age but when you combine them both together and divide it by 2 they are the perfect combination. Hard to explain if you haven't seen it but very interesting.. whether he plans to play them together I'm not sure, although I got that impression off him but he definitely has high regard for Rashford.

Not at all when Alcaraz has been steadfast in condemning the majority of Chelsea fans and having nothing but the utmost respect for what Rafa did for Chelsea.

Jose's back to being Jose, no surprise.Oh by the way, I love him
I'm not talking about him in particular but you can't criticise a manager for having a dig at an ex manager when the fans were doing it all along.

Why not? He condemned them both. How much more consistent could he be?
He might be consistent but you still can't criticise Mourinho for having a dig at a manager when the majority of your fans were doing it all along is all I'm saying. It comes across as hypocritical.
He's trying to please Man Utd fans. He had a dig at LVG who Utd fans were annoyed by because he used the word "philosophy" way to much. He had a dig at Wenger who is the manager of Arsenal, a team Utd had a pretty big rivalry with.

I think you're just narking for narkings sake here mate.
I don't know how anyone can find fault with someone bucking the trend of a manager and majority fanbase who where being disrespectful gobshites toward another manager who pulled that fanbases club together, saved their season, and won them a major European trophy in the process; and rightfully condemning the whole sorry lot of them.
If anything I'd applaud him for taking the higher ground and doing the right thing.
And trust me when I say applauding anything to do with that that football club is not something I do lightly.

Sorry scouse. I remember when you hoped mou would play rooney in midfield. Boy did mourinho tear that idea with one brilliant quote.

If Mourinho had a dig at the ex manager Benitez when he was Chelsea manager then he obviously knew what he was doing. Chelsea fans hated Benitez and just like with Mourinho in United press conference as manager.... he had digs at Arsene Wenger and LVG... most united fans have big rivalry with Arsenal, LVG/Moyes not so much but none of us hold them in that high of a regard either considering how dire the football was.
Just think about it logically, Chelsea fan criticising a Chelsea manager (Mourinho at that time) for having a dig at an ex Chelsea manager who majority of the fans insulted during his whole spell there. How is that not hypocritical or double standards when you are saying... well my manager can't have digs at an ex manager... but the fans can.

Mata is getting sold tho. I think we'll see Herrera feature in the hole.

Hey, Rooney still at Utd at all is a big bonus so it's a win/win.
.What isn't so much a win/win, and is a complete disgrace, is Utd getting charged £5 more at Wigan for a friendly a day before L'pool go to Wigan paying £5 less. Wouldn't be wearing that.
