We may doWhomever started this thread is an absolute clown and obviously doesn't know anything about football.
We have been awful for decades. Awful.
At last,w e have found a way to be hard to beat and are a point off the playoffs --and people want the manager out?!
For me we can continue our learning - some good games, some bad. If we finish in the the playoffs then we've done brilliantly.
You don't turn a crap team in to a top 2 team in one season. Grow up.
Not sure what my boyfriend has to do with your shortsightedness?
No no no! I have to jump in there, with respect though, to object; Mourinhio is not a footballing dinosaur.
That phrase gets bandied about far too much and I've never seen it used against someone who was behind the times one iota. It's like saying a manager is "tactically naive" - it's a fallback option to say when you either don't know about or have not considered the tactical aspects and the situation in detail.
No offence meant by the way had to jump in it's like a red rag to a bull sorry.
Don't like the odious man but he's ahead of 99% if coaches in world football.
I think people may get the superficial idea he's behind the times because his team's play defensively, but there is a current trend of attacking tactics and football is cyclical, it goes from attacking to defending trends, in the next 5 years it will swing back and that will be built on what coaches like JM are doing now.
That's all without what his players are disgracefully doing to sabotage United at the moment.
If football is cyclical, then if you fail to adapt, then what you're doing is outdated.
Mourinho has gone in to a club with a massive tradition for attacking football and he has failed to adapt to maintain those traditions.
If players are trying to sabotage him then you have to say that his man management techniques have to take part of that responsibility. His man management techniques just do not work with this snowflake generation.
"With regard to Gerrard - he's clearly doing a fantastic job at Rangers - unbeaten, top of the league & all that - lets see the measure of that success in silverware terms next May."
"unbeaten", apart from this game: https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/45312088
Top of the league; only if you exclude the five teams that sit above them in the table.
Gerrard was a massively over rated player who's World Class status was nothing more than a figment of the media's warped imagination; his status as a manager will not reach anything like those "dizzying" heights
One is given a mind with the option to change it from time to time. Today i changed mine, after the next clueless performance i may change it again and so forth.
The only time my mind has never changed is regarding my opinion of you!
Im very consistent when it comes to that..
With how lucrative football is, I doubt even Clough would have survived these idiot footballers and their rapist agents
Fergie managed it, doubt BC would struggle. Unlike Jose he could point to his record as a player.
Fergie had a bottomless pit. Clough didn't.
Owd Cough! ?Cough would have done what fergie did with jaap Stam. U played for clough in the way he wanted or u didn't play at all.
