United shouldn't sell Players this Season except Fellaini. We need to avoid what happened to the Club last Season, thus we need to keep a large Squad.
The era of experimentation is gone, coz we ain't Gunners! United is a trophies-winning Club not a Club known for developing Players, and celebrating trophyless Campaign every Season!

Elxandre:
even though pogba is not worth £100m, i just laugh when you guys underrate him.
that guy is 23 and already a consistent beast.
skillful and intelligent.

He is easily the best box to box in the world!

SailorXY:

I agree. I've already said I'd not mind we splashing £80m for him but perhaps the management see that amount as insane not to talk of £100m. Not that he's worth it but the market is already on the mad side
If we still land Matuidi instead nobody will grumble tho. Both will improve the squad anyway.

diggz:
The hating on him has to do with the price tag, shekina!!

I for one will never subscribe to CFC buying him for 100mil. 45/50mil is just very ok for him, with a salary of 200 to 250k max!!, will do just fine.

Elxandre:

How much did Madrid sign James?
Was James even as well known as Pogba back then?.

You'll never get a 23 year old world class midfielder for such peanut.

kokaneprodigy:

How much were Di Maria and Ozil signed, oga take it or leave it desperation is being preyed on here, same reason players prices are being inflated for Chelsea.

lekkie073:
lets thank God we have the money to pay.....with money all good things come easy. just ask mancity, Chelsea and page

Elxandre:

Matuidi has nothing on Pogba, but he wouldn't be a bad addition.
I actually like him.

lekkie073:
only one of the two should be signed. both of them in d same team wouldn't have clearly defined. I don't see the reason for buying both.

Dadehmola:


E be like say Mourihno wan win league next season oh!!

The man dey vex!

How is desperation being preyed on when Mkhi's Arsenal bid of about £27m got knocked back?

Mourinho: 'It doesn't make me nervous'

It doesn't make me nervous. It comes at the right moment of my career. I arrive at a club that is difficult to describe. It's not a dream job, it's reality. It's a job everyone wants. It's not one everyone gets to have and I have it.

I know the responsibility and at the same time I know the legacy. I know the history of this club. I know what the fans expect from me.

I was never very good at hiding behind words and philosophies, I never tried to be good at that. I was always much more aggressive in my approach with the risks that can bring. Be easy, even honest and pragmatic to focus on the three years and focus on the fact we didn't quality for the Champions League and so on.

Let's work and let's try to be back in the Champions League and top four and do well in the Europa League. I am not good on that, I prefer to be more aggressive and to be aggressive is to say: 'we want to win.'

You can win a short competition, a couple of matches, without playing well. But you cannot win competitions without playing well.

Mourinho: I want everything

I want everything. I want to win matches, I want to play well. I want to score goals, I don't wan to concede goals. I want everything. Of course, we are not going to get everything. But we want to.

Mourinho: I have nothing to prove

There are some manager who won the title 10 years ago , some have not won a title ever. the last time I won the title was one year ago. So if I have something to prove, imagine the others.

That was not important to me. I play against myself. I feel I have to prove not to the others, but I have to prove to myself.

I will never be able to work without success. That is my nature, I have always to find the reasons why I have always many questions towards myself.

Mourinho: The menu has to change for better, not worse

When people have year after year a certain type of menu, the menu has to change for better not worse.

For United fans, for many years, success was just routine. In the last three years, I want to forget.

I don't want the players to think we need to do better. What is to do better? Finish fourth. Finishing fourth is not the aim. This is what I do with myself.

kokaneprodigy:
when did arsenal place bid of 27M? Can you back this shii from your imagination with a reputable link?

kokaneprodigy:

Mikhi rejected arsenal and just yesterday u raised ur bid to 28M.

Mourinho: We had four targets, we have three

We made the nucleus of four priorities, four positions. To give a certain balance to the squad, a certain push in terms of quality. The quality I need and want.

Especially the ones with more vision. I am more a manager that likes specialists and not so much the multi-functional players because I am very clear in my model of players Van Gaal murdered in one breath.

Multi-functional players are one or two because when you are in trouble, you need one or two guys who can fill. But basically I want specialists.

We decided four targets. From these targets, we have three. Until we don't have the fourth, we are still working hard. Myself and the structure.

When we have the fourth, I will breathe.

SailorXY:

na you be my source na. abi you no credible enough?

joeace2020:


The beef is back

Mourinho asked about City and Pep Guardiola

20 teams can win the title... it doesn't make sense at all to focus on one team and I will not be doing that. I am the manager of the biggest club in the UK... so I'm going to focus on ourselves.

Mourinho defends academy record

Mourinho asked about his record in bringing through young players from academies. He produces a prepared list and says there are 49 players on it. He even offers to read them out.

'On lie, repeated many times... but always a lie...'

He touches on Ryan Giggs leaving the club, saying it is not his responsibility or fault that he has left the club. 'The club wanted to give him any important job in the club, he made the decision. A decision when you need to be brave.'
