    Good points. I doubt we could find many UTD supporters who would agree with that. But thats ok. I love giving them **** that Rooney is the greatest UTD striker in history. Look forward to seeing his ugly statue at old fatford in the future just so they can be reminded of it. The **** cunts.

      Had they not signed him Rashford, Martial and Mata could have done some real damage as their team would have practiced being more fluid (despite the obvious bus parking). Ibra was a poisoned chalice choice.

      Utd are not a rich man's toy, they have their limits too.
      It's an odd one - there have been several games when Rashford and Martial have looked totally impotent. I think leaving out Ibra would have required them really stepping up which they have been unable to do. Mata however has looked really good and Herrera too when they have attempted to be more progressive. I just don't think that is Mourinho's style of play. He has always been about efficiency rather than style.

      I really think the team reflect the manager. Ibra or not I think they would have struggled as too few of the players are really suited to the way Mourinho wants to play. If anything only Ibra fits his 'less is more' approach.

        Then that's a disaster for Utd fans on an epic scale. Would love Jose to buy Heskaku, absolutely love it. And Hamez too. Rashford, Mata and Martial to continue rotting on the bench.

        And vlahka, love the idea of Rooney's statue gracing that ****hole.
        One tit for another.

          I think If James went there it would be one of him or Mata in the team as well.

          I do hope that all of the people who constantly harped on about how Mourinho would have instantly transformed us into league winners for so many years have been paying attention to his work at United.

He tells to Zaha to go slow, he leaves Benteke at home. I hope he goes soft on us.

                        Surely that's bringing the game into disrepute?

                        Appealing to an opposition manager to go easy?

                        Disgusting.

                          Mourinho is such a prick.

                          He has zero integrity and his chat about the League over the last few weeks is farcical. That its an inconvenience etc. its all to mask his dismal performance in it.
                          He'd be kicking off big style if another team were attempting the same.

                          I'd rather win nothing as a supporter than win trophies with Mourinho at the helm.

                              6th place for all of his bluster and whatever the **** else it is he does. Its a backwards step from last season.

                                He needs the Europa so badly.

                                I'd love them to lose it just to see how he responds.
