      Jose saying they deserved to win?! They should have had a player sent off, how can a player slide through the back of an attacker, on the edge of the 6 yard box, in a 1v1 situation and it be deemed to have no intent other than to win the ball?! It’s as blatant red card as you could possibly get!

      To win the grand total of f**k all despite spending hundreds of millions of pounds during the transfer window is a pretty grand achievement.

      Bit harsh that my mate. You've been spending in transfer window for 10 years and still nothing.  :couch:  ;D

      I think you'll wind that your lot have a positive net spend, we certainly don't, oh.....

      In all seriousness it was a boring game of football but why can't Maureen just once show some class and just congratulate the other team for winning without coming out with this crap that they weren't the best team when they used the exact same tactics as he uses, it's pathetic and embarassing.

      Shocker of a game yesterday. Both teams had the same sh*te game plan, Chelsea were just lucky enough to get the first goal.

      Still, rather that than the other way round!

      This was a weird one for me. Went in to the game wanting Utd to win, because the way the Roman and the team treated Jose, but the moment Chelsea score did not want them to lose, such is my dislike of Man Utd  :lmao:

      As a fan I can only agree with you it can be very boring and predictable. I can moan but not sure it will get me anywhere.  :-\ Would be great to play football like we did under the Fergie years but it just isn't the Mourhino way. He appears set in his ways. Things need to change next year but as a fan can only hope. We can't win the league playing football like we're now.

      Too many exciting teams like yourselves, Spurs and title favs  City will blow so many teams away.

      It will be more of the same next season only United won't finish in the top 2 maybe ye will win the league cup.

      Mourinho's tactics are outdated and similar to Wenger at Arsenal he has become a cup manager as teams striving for European and domestic title success are becoming less interested in winning domestic cups.

      Also I think he will struggle to keep the dressing room next season if he continues to criticise some of his players while putting others up on a pedestal.

      Either way I hope he's there next season as it will guarantee United won't be title contenders.

      I think you make valid points and very hard to disagree with you. I won a nice few bob on United finishing above Liverpool this year. However, we only finished 2nd due to your great run in the CL in my opinion.

      If Mourhino doesn't change his style next year I think it will be his last sadly.

      Honest question, why do United fans even like Mourinho?
      He rants about how people are jealous of Pogba because they struggle for money and Pogba is rich.
      Actually Pogba was sh*te considering 90m at that time.
      He comes on and rants about heritage, no idea what his point was.. it sounded like he was talking about nothing.
      He plays defensive football all season, then complains when other teams park the bus and say they did not deserve to win?
      This is just recent stuff. He is not very liked in other leagues he managed in either.
      If he were a Liverpool manager, we'd dislike him regardless of results because of his attitude.
      He won't be a Liverpool manager because a) we got Klopp and b) our owners are aware of how we feel about Mourinho.
      Before he was at United, Liverpool fans didn't like him and United seemed to want him, this heel of a man.
      Why do United fans etc.. like him that much?
      He's only really proven to perform well with massive amounts of money, personally I think half the fans on this forum could do well as a manager with the money he's had.
      Do United fans think he's handsome or something? What's the deal?

      So basically, Pogba is just a flash Carlton Palmer who for some reason bounces along like a chicken when he hasn’t got the ball.

      I can't speak for others only myself. I've said on many occasion I've always like him, even at the chavs. I've always liked his arrogance for some reason. Obviously fully understand why he is hated so much but he brings that on himself.

      I actually agree with most of what you say. Once again I can only post what many you lads of said in the passed about your own players! He maybe a c**t, but he's our c**t.

      From what I saw of the Cup Final, thought it was awful as entertainment value goes. Feel sorry for both sets of supporters paying to watch such a poor game.

      No doubt see more spills and thrills, in next weeks final, which could be, another white knuckle ride for Liverpool fans. Although far better entertainment, than the dross served up yesterday.

      Erm I’m not a fan of his but this is bollocks. He had massive success with Inter Milan and Porto who are not rich by any means.

      He won the F***ing champions league with both, that’s so F***ing hard to do.

      Moratti spent loads at Inter. Have a look at their squad that won that year,

      In defence they had,

      Janetti, Cordoba, Chivu, Lucio, Maicon, Materazzi and Walter Samuel!!

      Midfield

      Stankovic, Cambiasso, Sneijder,  Motta, Quaresma, Muntari,

      forward

      Eto, Balotelli, Pandev, Milito, Arnautovic.

      They sold Ibrahajmovic to Barca and bought I believe, Eto, Lucio, Milito, Sniejder and Maicon something like that. He convinced people he was up against it.
