Mourinho has taken United backwards, for all the United fans pissing and moaning about Van Gaals football, he was building a team for the long term future of the club. Much like how he laid the foundations of the Bayern team at the start of the decade.
United fans got what they deserved. They wanted Mourinho and here is Mourinho.

How good is Yerry Mina?
Yes it is. He has vast resources, but he doesn't want to modify his style of coaching. That shyt was working at Chelski because he had the personnel and the players bought in. With Pep in the Prem...he's having to play second fiddle once more to him and its bothering the fukk out of him.
Pep came in and told the money men "Give me these players and we will win". I don't think Jose has done the same. That's an issue. And while basically every team in the top half of the table have gotten better besides Chelsea and Spurs, ManU hasn't. Jose is depending on Pogba to be trancendednt in a system that he CAN'T flourish in. Alexis to play hard in a team that doesn't press and Lukaku to top the goal table with no service (because Pogba can't do it in the system).
Its a clusterfukk. I fully expect them to be back in Europa honestly after this season.
meh. He's got quality but I haven't seen him play enough. He was damn near team of the tournament level in the WC though....but we all know how buying players after the WC is though *glares at James*

Welbeck only scored 2 goals that seasonIf sir alex ain't the goat manager than idk who is. He won the league in his last season with players like Jonny evans, phil jones, cleverly, ashley young and welbeck as starters

He isn't a better defender than Dav Sanchez IMO. Definitely needs an experienced player alongside him to guide him, as his positional can be exposed at times but has the pace for good recovery. But if you keep on reliant on that, then you aren't really that good of a defender, much like Sergio Ramos. But my lord, him in the air and being a phucking menace at set pieces. If he can take the physical abuse of the PL, he'll be fine because not too many people will out muscle him in the air or ground.

Good pickup for Milan at that price
breh stop. mourinho bring the criticism on himself. mourinho is still a good manager in playing a very pramatic system. but i dont think the players are truly inspired to play for him. and you cant use the no fullbacks as an excuse. pep has fabian delph showing at left back all last season. and then young went on to play ahead of him at the world cup.
this is what happens when you proclaim to be the greatest club of all time and feel the need to win year in and year out. but thats not how it works. thats not how anythign works. they shoudlve stuck with van gaal until they had someone to push the team to the next level. you knew what you were getting with mourinho. When mourinho leaves because he will where does that leave the side. Is there a building block that the next manager can come in and say okay ijust need this this and this and we can seriously challenge for the league. or do they have to come in and sign a whole new fleet of players.

Yeah nah, I don't think he's been brilliant or anything but results wise I don't think he has underachieved when you consider how good Man City are. It's the other stuff like having a shyt attitude, wasting young players, blaming players in press conferences and that where he's been shocking.
Mourinho is probably at the same stage of his career where Wenger was a decade ago, he's not going to win the big competitions often but if your team isn't elite quality you wouldn't benefit from sacking him. Chelsea and Real Madrid had better squads than the current Man United when they sacked him, so they were able to get the big trophies under new management. I don't think United will topple City anytime soon regardless of who's in charge.
