Who bought Dalot? Lindelof? Baily? Lukaku? Fred? Pogba? Zlatan? Sanchez? Matic? We have the two most expensive players in the league but yet the board didn't back him. Man Utd are second highest spenders in the league behind Man City but the board didn't back him, he asked for two defenders, how often does he use the ones he bought? You think We are a charity organization meant for throwing money around because we are Manchester United, Your special one is a bloody scam, He had problems with Shaw, Martial, Pogba, Baily, Valencia and the bastard was ready to sell a talented player like Martial for cheap and brought in an ageing Sanchez, Need I remind you the number of players he had issues with at Madrid and Chelsea as well?

So we need two defenders to beat the wolves, Valencia, Sevilla, Brighton, Southampton, west hams of this world? How much did Tottenham spend this summer? Where are they on the log? But Your MCM needs 1B worth of players to beat the likes of Brighton and Co, Under Mourinho, Man Utd playerd the worst football the league has seen in years but Pogba is your problem, is it not the same Pogba that won the world cup with France?

Your special one is nothing but a fraud, Fact.
You said it all

Ed Woodward should have been sacked instead. The board never backed Mourinho.

He said it end of the season that he needed two center backs but Woodward stood against him.

Whenever the board of a football club don't support the manager's transfer targets that manager is doomed

Manchester United are going to be relegated

So sad Indeed >:
We made the worst mistake ever by sacking Mourinho
How can you side with Pogba over the special one? Because of Instagram followers?

GGMU

you fail to understand that even though you have "bestest" defender as a club and you playing time on a pitch is poor, you still a waterloo... man utd has better defender when compare to man city... if you know.. yet still win most of their matches, why? because, out of 15 minutes of plays, they are capable of holding ball for 13 minutes with better chance ..... mourinho like it as, dont allow them to score us while others couches says if they score us one, we double it for them

Tottenham did not spend anything and have they won trophies? Wonder why a Man U fan will continue to back this stingy board. The day Man U spends 75 million pounds on a defender (the going rate for a top class one) like Liverpool did for Van Dijk (who played for a small team and had no big team experience whatsoever) and they are reaping the benefits is the day I start taking Man U serious as a Man Utd fan. SAF was a unicorn, the board should get their heads out their assess and spend money on quality players and if it does not work, they are then justified in sacking the manager unlike now. Give the manager the tools to succeed so he has no excuses. My 2 cents.

We have the most expensive striker in the League, we have the most expensive midfielder in the league, we have the highest paid player in the league in Sanchez who was bought for Mourinho when he asked, We have 50m pounds midfielder on the bench

So the board should continue wasting money because they are rich? How many of Mourinho's signings have turned out to become beasts in the league? Except Zlatan who was gotten for free? All Mourinho signings have flopped, the board still have you money to spend, you bought another midfielder for 50m and you never use him, he is always on the bench, you bought two defenders, they are always on the bench, You haven't made good use of the money you were given the first and second time, all what you spent the money on have become flops and unused, if you were the board, will you want to waste another huge some on the manager for him to get players? Go and look at the players Mourinho said he wanted and tell me if you would give him any money if you were part of the board, What exactly was he trying to build in Manchester? Mourinho was busy identifying old players and you expect the board to fork out another huge sum of money? Imagine chasing a 28 year koulibaly for more than 90m pounds when you have two defenders tha you bought and don't use, He wanted an ageing Boeteng , he bought an ageing Sanchez, an ageing Matic, so what future plans do you have for the club? And you expect the board to keep dropping money like that because they are stupid? Think again bro

When you hire a manager, you back him in the transfer market. He did not ask for another striker, he asked for a defender. Why not give him that so he can run out of excuses and can justifiably be sacked. I guess if Klopp or Sarri were the managers, the board will not be spending 70 million+ pounds on a keeper or defender. The board is stingy IMO and do not get my support any time soon until they stop. We are not the only club spending money on players and they become flops, see Chelsea with Morata, they still went back to pay 70 million+ pounds for an unknown keeper in Arrizabalaga. Liverpool spent 70 million+ pounds on Allisson and Van Dijk relative unknowns.When will your stingy board spend such kind of money on top class players? Where are Liverpool and Chelsea on the table? Your guess is as good as mine. My 2 cents.

Let me remind you that last season, we conceded the least number of goals in the league? What changed? Watching us play, what would you say our major problem is? The team is not attacking, the team is not scoring, the team is playing drab football, The team is not creating chances, our attackers and midfielders are lazy, we play defensive football and you as a coach still wants more defenders, is it until we turn to wall of china before he becomes satisfied? will getting more defenders solve all these? You think we need more defenders because Mourinho's tactics has always been to absorb pressure from opponents there by leaving our defenders exposed, we don't press for the ball, we sit back and wait for the opponent to come at us, tell me why we won't concede goals left right and centre.

Look at Man City, The same otamendi and stones that people were mocking three season ago led Man City's defense to a title, what changed? The tactics bro, Man City Don't allow their opponents to relax on the ball, they press from the front which forces their opponents to make mistakes, they don't rest and this frees up their defenders and they have less defensive duties to do, look at Barca for example under pep, Pep didn't have the best defenders at Barca but you see them winning trophies upon trophies, why? The tactics, He sets his team to play in a way that the defenders are not troubled much by their opponents, they start the defending from the front, that is why his defenders always hold a high line.


Mourinho clearly had no vision and an outdated tactics, there were no signs of improvement, our style of play deteriorated every match day and getting more defenders was not the answer, getting more defenders would only make us defend more when we should be focused on outscoring our opponents

Manchester United executive vice-chairman, Ed Woodward has revealed why the club sacked manager, Jose Mourinho.

Recall that Mourinho was on Tuesday morning sacked by United.

According to Metro UK, Woodward told United’s players at Old Trafford training ground shortly after Mourinho’s sack that one of the reasons the club fired the Portuguese gaffer was because of the Red Devils’ current position on the Premier League table.

The report claimed that Woodward also said that Mourinho’s relationship with some of United’s most high profile players was another reason why the former Chelsea coach was sacked, adding that United board could not continue under the circumstances.

The report also claimed that the United boss did not only put the whole blame on the 55-year-old.

Man United will tackle Cardiff City on Saturday in the Premier League fixture at home.

If the style of play was that bad at the beginning, why was he hired? I did not see the board or you complaining when he won the league cup and Europa cup. Now he is not winning, the style of play is now important SMH. If a manager you hired says he needs a defender and not asking for much else, you back him as the person himself knows he is running out of excuses.

Players on the team not being world class except De Gea is all you need to know. World class players need money, that is what the board and Ed Woodward has refused to recognize.

So seriously believe that getting a defender would have improved the team's performance? Getting a defender would have helped us score more goals, play beautiful attacking football? Please how will getting more defenders improve the quality of our football? You think getting a defender for Jose was the board's problem? Nah, that's where you missed it, The problem was Jose's style of play, the worst ever, this was every fan's problem, How would getting a new defender have solved this problem? Is it the defender that will help our attackers score? Or attack? Or create chances? Will getting one defender change the mentality of the whole team or stop Jose from playing his defensive boring football, Our problem starts from the front before it gets to the back, because if your attackers are not pressing for the ball, that is when your opponent reaches your defenders, attack is the first line of defense my guy, that is why when the whistle is blown, the attackers are the ones who stand in the front chasing the ball not the defenders, it is only when the attackers fail to close down, the opponent gets to the defenders and then the goal keeper, So getting more defenders would be just like adding more Michelin tyres to the back of your truck when you have a flat tyre at the front, it won't be balanced, Mourinho sets up his team to have 9 players behind the ball but yet he wants more defenders, He should have asked for Voltron and the avengers

How can they they play well when sm players feel they know better than the coach?

Moyes inherited a good team and position from Ferguson and crippled it and Mourinho pick up the pieces and did a better job. Moyes doesn’t take the credit for those statistics.
Mourinho Inherited basically the same team Moyes Inherited plus the ones Luis Van Gal bought plus about HALF A BILLION DOLLARS he was given to INVEST on Players,more than Guardiola has spent at Man City..
If the players ain't playing well and feel they know better,it's all on the Coach..he's the Manager after all..
The fact on the ground says Mourinho did a bad job,which better job are you going on about? Man United is EIGHT POINTS behind Arsenal the team immediately above them and with ZERO goals difference and you call that a better job?
We're talking about Man United NOT West Ham United,if this is your idea of doing a better job,I wonder what a bad job would look like.. shocked
