The Manchester United Thread

Remember when Jose first came and he gave a big speech about wanting specialists in positions and not having midfielders in defence or multi-functional platers etc. Rojo on the bench and Mctominay in a back 3. Young Playing both full back positions (not complaining about Young btw). As Z says, walking contradiction.
 
I thought Mr. Bean retired, but apparently he just changed careers and became a defender for Manchester United.
 
One of the worst teams we'll play this season at their ground and we still messed it up. Rashford was our best player and always looked like at least making penetrative runs and creating something... Mourinho subs him.
 
Lukaku injures himself with his first touch, made me laugh so **** hard in what is a pitiful situation. We are ****, Lukaku's first touch scored him a goal and injured himself.... people compared him to Drogba :D
 
I shouldn’t laugh but the manner in which he injured himself was too **** clumsy. Extra stone or two coming down wouldn’t have helped
 
Mourinho after the game "We lose too many balls in the midfield"....... you have Fred, Mata, Pereira who are all great players you won't use but you'll pick McTominay, Fellaini and Matic religiously.

Seriously..... this guy..... shambles of a lineup, we didn't even deserve to win from the start. We somehow rescue the game from another terrible start and you think we'll go on from here.... second half..... back foot again and Southampton are better.

Strange to pick out McTominey who wasn’t even playing in CM. And Was good today. I agree with the rest though!
 
At this point I'm pretty sure the only thing keeping Jose in the job is that there's no good replacement available on the market right now. Top 4 is pretty much gone when it's December and you're 8-9 points and massive goal difference behind all the teams in places from 3 to 5. Especially since you seem to have injury crisis just as huge amount of December fixtures begins.

Jardim, Zidane, Conte, Wenger, Howe, Todesco, even Van Bronckhorst could get this lot playing something better surely.. :) Or Hassenthingy that was at Red Bull?
 
The only thing keeping him in a job is the CL. If we didn’t qualify he would be gone by now imo. Line up will be interesting against Arsenal with no Shaw and Young.
 
Wenger is a dinosaur. Conte, I don't think that replacing one volatie and prickly manager with another can fix the atmosphere. Zidane I doubt would take the job in the middle of this mess. Others are a nogo, it's Woodward, he wants a celebrity manager.

Hahah, seems my decision to start movie night from second half was correct :D
How was it? No changes created, tempo went down second half or what happened?

Definite options out there, I just think it's our board being our board and they won't execute a decision until it's too late. Also a big part problem is the £20m payout they'll have to give Mourinho if they sack him.

Either way, it's embarrassing, the time to act is now... before now... bringing in a manager now we've got half a season to adapt a new philosophy relatively pressure free and get players who want out back on side.
