It's not like Mou hasn't gave Pogba responsibilities and special treatment though. He was given captaincy for a few games this season, but didn't really look all that inspiring as a leader on the pitch in those games.
I still am very optimistic he can turn things around, but now I'm not sure if he can ever be ready to lead the team.

By Frustrated_me Go To PostEngland killed Mourinho, you fuckers did him good.this is a bunch of hogwash, Madrid, if anything, killed whatever was left of him after the Inter experience.
Best Mou was when he was in Madrid. I still remember him running to the celebration stand in the middle of the Bernabeu after our league win. He was so happy, so proud.
He simultaneously won everything with Inter while losing a lot of what made him special to begin with.
Madrid was fucking woeful. Focus on defense and let the guys up front just do whatever they want to in fast counter. Horrid shit.
Surprised to hear Morata's out of the Spain NT. I thought they had a dearth of good strikers and his place was in no danger.
I liked Karen a lot on The Apprentice. It's a shame she's apparently quite miserable outside the show.

Having Suarez endorse your country with tweets like this is kind of amazing. Mixing in some Dutch heritage too. Love it.

However, you're crazy if you think that Madrid Mou football was woeful, some of our best play was during that frame. Those counter attacks were ridiculous. Ozil, Ronaldo, Higgs and to a certain point Cungtrow were ripping it up.
By Perfect Blue Go To PostDoesn’t Madrid under Jose have the most goals scored and most points in a season?Indeed.
And credit to Mou he did it during Barcelona's best team. No easy tasking.

By Perfect Blue Go To PostDoesn’t Madrid under Jose have the most goals scored and most points in a season?You really wanna watch a team worth millions and millions of €s play fucking counter-attacking football? What a waste of talent. Waste of money too, could have gotten a bunch of half-decent fast players up front to do that shit.
By FlutterPuffs Go To PostSo uh, what is the best term for her. Tank, beast?
Ample?
Look at the way she bullies her way through the defense, an absolute hamplanet.

I think Mou instilled that play into our DNA, we're still one of the best counter attacking teams in football, however, we now have more tricks up our sleeve as that is only 1 aspect of our play, and an important one IMO.
Fuck man, I really miss Mourinho. Sucks he fell off with Casillas and Co.

I have no idea who this gray-haired clown is, really
"For me, beauty in football is mainly about having control of the game through possession of the ball, rhythm of play, passing the ball around and creative players having a preponderance within the collective."
"For me to defend well is to defend little, to defend for a short time, to have the ball for as long as possible, is to be with the game initiative most of the time, not having to be defensive. For others, defending well is to defend in a compact way, is to defend, for example, with all the players behind the ball line, making room for their opponents. For others still, to defend well is to cancel out, from the individual point of view, the fundamental players of the opposing team. For me, defending well is a mixture of "little" in terms of amount of time, mixed with team behavior in moment of losing possession. "
"There are teams that are overly concerned with the defensive aspect and often in the game they have great difficulty in getting out of a situation of pressure to a position of possession. This is one aspect that I work immensely: build-up after recovery of possession of the ball. That is, having the ability to play in a certain way to defend and then, in possession of the ball, modifying what is fundamental: position recovery on the formation, taking the ball out of the pressure zones, etc. "
but I don't like him or his shit football

Atlético Madrid X Sporting
Leipzig X Marseille
Lazio X Salzburg
I see Mou got my memo about facts, the only thing he forgot to talk about was injuries.
The funny thing is so many people want to hate on Mou/United but when you bring out the facts they have nothing to say back. With the team United currently have they should be top 4 in the league, knockout/quarter final in the CL, quarter final/final in the domestic cups.
Despite all the injuries, they've achieved exactly this so far this season & people still want to get Mou sacked? Apart from the fact there is no better manager available to replace him he has done a fantastic job of taking United from a 5th-7th placed team to the 2nd best team. Each year he has bought well & the majority of his signings have played a key part in improving United. This summer he is going to go out and buy better central midfield players & defenders and we'll see another improvement next year. Mou's not going anywhere anytime soon.

By Doicare Go To PostI see Mou got my memo about facts, the only thing he forgot to talk about was injuries.Mou is doing well for a tranistional manager. He's steading the boat, getting rid of players most wouldnt have the balls to do so, and is getting them back on solid footing, he's has another two or so years before he hits his Wenger stage.

Anyone suggesting United is doing well this season is a fucking muppet. Six games behind in the league, an awful, stupefying style of football, weak cup efforts, a host of out-of-sorts players like Sanchez and Pogba who look entirely lost and uninspired, hundreds of millions outlayed on players for very little return, a wilting, bitter Mourinho and your owners support Donald Trump. What a fucking washout.
You’re Manchester fucking United, not Stoke City. You can’t be content with where you are. Have some respect. I know most of you are pretty realistic about it though.
Reminds me of both of our weak title defences. Nothing to be proud of.

Mou not holding back on that football heritage.
Agree with him in regards to a lot of players we signed not being good enough previously. Still think there's too many in the squad atm.
He's had 4 windows now. The one in the summer needs to be the one that completes his team, yet it still looks like the team major improvements.
Needs to fix the defence, get a RB, LB and CB. All who can play on the ball and under pressure.
Then he needs to figure out how to get more out of Pogba and Sanchez as we need to get them playing where they can impact the game positively.
Also needs to work completing the midfield with Carrick leaving and finding a proper RW.

Pi day anyone? 3.14.18?
I guess mighty Sevilla were too good for us in this tie. Also, we should buy most of their squad this summer.
Sevilla can get Sanchez, Pogba and Martial in return.
