Yeh. You ask like its something uncommon. The guy took his coaching badges in his early 20's. Clearly his focus was on coaching and management and United noticed this. Everton also noticed.
He probably wasn't offered, but that's not my point. You've said countless times that he wouldn't have rejected it despite him saying otherwise.
Right so merely getting his coaching badges was what got him noticed by one of the biggest clubs in the the league at the time? Do me a favour UIR . It's like some no mark from Accrington showing the same desire getting linked with you now.
What is he meat to say. "Well United never offered me the job and to be honest I am gutted because truth be told I would of loved the chance to take over my hero, the one man in football I have total respect for" I dont think Jose is that stupid to be honest. Imagine the chelsea fans reaction if he had come out with that. Much better to keep your current employer sweet.
Utter. Bollocks. You make this **** up as you go He has history with us, and had he been given a choice between us and you he would've chosen us, as he's come out and said.
I doubt he did it with the intention of getting noticed by United. Probably more to do with him wanting to be a manager after finishing as a player. Seems that by taking Preston up from Division 2 and almost to the PL the following season justified his ambition to become a manager and showed the guy at such a young age had a promising career ahead of him.
To be fair, he'll have a better team this time. Not even Mourinho would get Barnet to win at OT (well maybe 1-100 times)
Thats all I need to know. Expected better of you tbh drogs, didnt think you were one to fall for bullshit but oh well. as if Jose would admit he wanted the United job regardless of whether it was offered or not. Just wouldnt happen.
I think the better team part slipped their collective minds. not just a better team than Everton, the best in the league by some distance.
contradicting your earlier points now and still not clarifying when United took notice. It's all bollocks mate, they may well have noticed him at Everton but did they **** when he was starting out at Preston.
and what bullshit is that? I don't believe he was offered the United job and I do think United had Moyes in mind for some time, but Mourinho would have rejected United and United were not considering Moyes in 90 ****ing 9
He didn't say that.He said that a club like ManU doesn't bother with no marks like that you complete halfwit.
We are talking about a club just a few miles up the road in all fairness. Do you seriously doubt United wouldnt of been aware of up and coming coaches/managers? Noticing his potential at preston is hardly far fetched, i dont understand why you dismiss this very likely ( and confirmed by a better source than half your fellow fans can muster up ) event. I dont have a clue if it was formal, maybe we just asked him. He was at Preston for quite a while, players, player manager and then manager. on his appointment of manager he took relegation candidates to promotion. probably enough to get noticed.
According to a former United manager who has links to the club still and his son coaches the younger sides, United wanted him as a coach in his PNE days. Not manager, coach. cannot understand your shock at this drogs. The bullshit is lapping up what jose has to say. Hes the ****ing master at it. i doubt even he knows when hes being honest or not hes that good at saying what he needs to say. All i will say is due to him 'claiming' he would of turned down United, Chelsea fans love him even more. Theres nothing at all to back this up except some guy playing up to his new employers. We will leave it at that as its boring and i am off to make some food and maybe go watch Man of Steel.
But a club like Everton couldn't beat Chelsea more than 3 times in 32 attempts? Smaller clubs have managed more wins against us in less games.
Yeah, thanks to the Share Issue and the money Sky later pumped in, he was poor prior to having significantly more money than anyone else to spend.
