"When you tell a club like Man Utd, do you think Milan is not as big as us? You think Real Madrid are not as big as we are? "I know what a big club is. One thing is a big club and another thing is a big football team. They are two different things. "When you speak about responsibilities to win the Premier League, Tottenham doesn't have that responsibility because they are not a club with the same history as us. "Arsenal don't have the responsibility to win it. Chelsea don't have the responsibility to win it. When you speak about big football clubs, you are speaking about the history of the club." - JOSE MOURINHO |
"We are in the second year of trying to rebuild a football team that you know is not one of the best teams in the world; Manchester City buy full-backs for the price of strikers. "[Spending £300m] is not enough. The price for the big clubs is different than for the other clubs. The big historical clubs are normally punished in the market because of that history." - JOSE MOURINHO |
"Obviously, it's a bad result for us. We are never happy with a draw - especially in a match where we are so dominant, but that's the reality." - JOSE MOURINHO |
"The boys are doing what they can and they are doing fine. I say, in the last two matches, we had 15 chances to score and we conceded three goals and an amazing free-kick so the boys do what they can. "They are trying hard, with problems as we have injuries, but we have the boys fighting hard. I'm not happy with the result and I wasn't happy with the result against Leicester of course, but I'm happy with my players. No criticism to my players." - JOSE MOURINHO |
"You can say we had some success and I still think there were so many balls in such important areas with lots of crosses, good and low crosses, but we didn't attack all these balls well. "Also, normally, we were not lucky with rebounds so I'm happy with the effort, happy with the personality and happy with the feeling that we didn't lose but, of course, we lost two points." - JOSE MOURINHO |
"It was just tactical [Half Time Substitutions]. [We changed to] only one central defender as we know that Burnley don't have normally the ball as they just play direct so we played one against one with Phil Jones. "It is a risk and Jones accepted that and Nemanja Matic was there just to bring the ball from a totally free position, bringing lots of balls into midfield. "Then, instead of more positional players like Zlatan Ibrahimovic, I decided to go with Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Jesse Lingard and Juan Mata with all three trying to play in these areas behind Lukaku." - JOSE MOURINHO |
"The problem with the first-half performance is another 's' goal - you are intelligent and don't need me to tell the whole world the other letters in the word. "What we are having now is lots of really very bad goals against us, so that obviously has an impact in the game. "At 2-0, it makes things more difficult at half-time, I need my players to believe in them[selves] and I need them to believe in me; to accept the risk and not be afraid to lose three or four. "To not be afraid of what was possible - what didn't happen but it could happen, that there is a negative reaction from the supporters." - JOSE MOURINHO |
KingTom: ![]() I couldn't believe United is sinking every GW. At this Rate, we gonna discover Crude Oil at Old |
elrony: ![]() I am still mourning my darling Club's pathetic Situation at the moment....... gonna stick to the Resolution. |
JM finally plays Zlatan Ibrahimovic as a No. 10. The Lineup is balance and the Formation is decent enough to get us the maximum Points. GGMU

pamcode: ![]() FPL can be frustrating sometimes! |
Nigerians are too quick to forget. The Flashes of Ogbeche in friendly Matches earned a Spot in the Final List for the 2002 World Cup. The Flashes of Lukman Haruna during the WC Year also earned him a Call up for the 2010 World Cup. The same Mistake was repeated in 2014 World Cup, hence when are we gonna Learn?! Uzoho can't be trusted to man the Post for the Eagles in Russia, same as Maduka and Co. They ain't tested regularly in an elite Competition(s) yet. Seem we are taking the Department for granted..... it's better we recall Enyeama than going to the Mundial with the Rookies. If Ejide is invited, I believe he merits it coz Rohr has Scouts who are monitoring these Players. Whoever is invited for the March Friendly Match is watched and proven his readiness to represent the GWG in my Opinion. |
pamcode: ![]() It's really painful Bro. Rooney that I got in his Place didn't even make the last GW Team. I sold the mumu off immediately with 4 Points loss out of Annoyance. |
sod09: ![]() You are a big Fool, coz you ain't new to FPL like me! Have you got him back in your Team?! |
The Week I got rid of Kane from my Team, the Fool banged Hatrick, couldn't believe he has scored Brace already. Chai! |
safarigirl:So have committed a big Crime already?! Sorry ma and merry Xmas. |
Really don't understand why some Arguments are taking personal on this Thread. We want Rohr to do his Job, yet we are emotionally and sentimentally forcing Players on him. We want Rohr to succeed, yet we do not want certain Players in the Team. Rohr is in Charge..... he gets the Glory if he succeeds, so is Blame - if things go south for him. We can discuss Players, but saying certain Players should make the List is extreme and uncalled for. Let's Rohr and his Staff decide on the List, it's not our Job to make the List but to support the List. |
Merry Christmas to all United Fans!

![]() ...... still on the Matter?! I have no Player to blame, rather the Manager. Let JM adjusts his Philosophy, he needs to upgrade and start selecting right Players for the Game. Lindelof was quiet offensively throughout the Match. Did he even make any Cross at all?! I doubt it. Why was Shaw kept on the Bench, when he should have played LB and Young played RB? Mata is wasting on the Wing. He's not a Winger, he has no speed to cover the Position. Lukaku keeps spending more time off the 18 yard Box. He's needed in the Team as a Striker for God's Sake! He's signed to bang Goals not creating. Is Lingard creative, does he get the Skill to orchestrate the Game from the middle?! Mou is getting it wrong. He's killing the Team and the Players morale with his tactical Decisions. |
“I'm not looking to that [the Team's Progress], I'm looking at this match. In half an hour I'll be looking to the next match and the only thing I can say is that it was an easy match to win, at 1-1, it can be my weakness, I told them more than one time the match is very easy to win and we didn't.” - JOSE MOURINHO |
“You know that our players that are, I don't know the word, in some other cultures people used to call intelligent players in the English culture it depends on the player, the club. "I remember last year Marcus had quite an easy penalty against Swansea and he was killed and some other players keep doing the same and worse, and keep getting protected. "I don't know if it was a penalty, I know [Jon] Moss [the referee] had a good performance, Leicester fans were complaining without any reason, the yellow card for Mahrez is a yellow card because he dived, if it was a pen, and he didn't give it, I'm not critical at all because Moss had a very good performance, and if Marcus was not intelligent like some other guys are that's it.” - JOSE MOURINHO |
"I had the chance to speak with Ashley Young to tell him the way the team had to be in position because of Smalling's difficulty but I think a lack of maturity because I cannot stop the game to give a team-talk for the last two minutes. "The players immediately have to adapt and read the game and they didn't, we had childish decisions in front of goal, bad decisions. It was not about the dribbling and hit the bar, it was not just about the cases with an open goal, it was easy decisions to make to counter-attack.” - JOSE MOURINHO |
“We didn't win because we missed incredible chances. I would say joke chances. We made a big defensive accumulation of mistakes in an easy match to win. I talked to the players at half-time when it was 1-1 that it was an easy match to win. "The reality is that it is 2-2. Sometimes you make mistakes and are not punished by that. Tonight we were punished by our mistakes. We did everything to win but when you lose big chances. Childish loss of possession, so easy. Childish in their box and childish in our box. We were punished with [losing] two points.” - JOSE MOURINHO |
Lukaku did well in the Match. He created chances for Martial, Lingard, Rashford and Mkhtaryan to easily, but smartly convert, but the Fools chose to waste the Opportunities. They ain't deserve Wages for the rest of the Year! Bunch of mechanical Players! |
This is what you get when a Manager so much believe in brainless but workaholic Players than technically gifted, skillful Players. Young is gradually diminishing in value and performance. He barely made use of his left Leg for a positive Result throughout the Match Duration. I was expecting JM to switch the Formation to 3 - 5 - 2 immediately Leceister City is reduced to 10 Players. They have nothing to lose, hence throwing Everything at us to get a Point. The Trio of Lindelof, Jones, Smalling at the Back, Young moves to the RW and Shaw (replaces Lingard) plays as a LW - would have sealed the maximum Points for United. The creativity of Mata would have been valuable in the Final Minutes, at least Lukaku or Rashford would have got a Goal via a Mata Assist. I do not hope for a Sack of JM, he should be allowed to complete his Terms and honorably walk away! |
elrony: ![]() Must you get Petrol at all Costs?! I really pity most of you sacrificing Everything simply to get few Litres of PMS. I won't die if I do not drive nor use Generating Set for few Days! |
funlord:I think we should be fine with Lindelof at RB, coz he gets Pace to fairly compete with Gray! |
Who's gonna play RB? Kinda confused with the Lineup! |
