I thought he signed it as Alexis Baby.

Even saying goodbye he comes across as an arrogant, whiney cunt, he's going to fit right in there. And now Arsenal get an attacking midfielder who's soft as **** and **** scared of being tackled. The perfect swap.

Well st least you know he wrote it himself. Or it’s the worst ghost writer on the planet

[Norbs]

Its even worse than I imagined it would be Dream move.

Jose Mourinho signs new Man Utd contract to 2020

Jose Mourinho has signed a new contract with Manchester United to keep him at the club until 2020, with the option of a further year.

Mourinho won the EFL Cup and Europa League in his first season at Old Trafford and, this season, has United second in the Premier League and through to the Champions League last-16, where they will face Sevilla.

"I am really honoured and proud to be Manchester United manager. I would like to say a big thank you to the owners and to Mr Woodward for the recognition of my hard work and dedication," Mourinho said.

"I am delighted they feel and trust that I am the right manager for this great club for the foreseeable future. We have set very high standards - winning three trophies in one season - but those are the standards I expect my teams to aim for.

"We are creating the conditions for a brilliant and successful future for Manchester United."

Ed Woodward, who has been in talks with Mourinho's agent Jorge Mendes since last October, said: "Jose has already achieved a great deal as Manchester United manager and I am delighted that he has agreed to extend his commitment until at least 2020.

"His work rate and professionalism are exceptional and he has embraced the club's desire to promote top quality young players to the first team.

"He has brought an energy and a sense of purpose to everything that he does and I am sure that will continue to bring results for the fans and the club."

Obviously got that extra £3M to cover his tax fine.

Highest paid at the club I believe, plus I believe there is a break clause

Managers getting more per week than players? Is that universal these days?!

Dyche is now the highest paid at Burnleh but surely Mourinho's not on more than Sanchez and Pogba.

[Alex]

I hope he is

Yup he is.. ala Ferguson and the same as he was at Chelsea

[Fosterbloke]

I thought managers were paid much less, I mean they can work until they're 70!

That said, ultimately the team's fortunes lie on their shoulders and they're more likely to be sacked than a player (ahem Flanagan).

Klopp is probably earning twice as much as anyone at Liverpool. Not that's he's in Mourinho's bracket.
