Mourinho is a brilliant football manager. He's extremely thorough, tactically astute and most importantly knows how to win when it really matters.

Love him or loathe him, anyone who thinks he's not going to make a big difference at United, is either delusional or has got rocks in their head.

I'd have been beyond delighted to have seen him at Goodison.

So bookies favourites are

De Boer
Pellegrini
Emery

Which would you prefer Tobes?
 
I can sense you're reeling inside mate. I've never known you to post this much over something, even United!

Not been on so getting a lot in, been busy with work and BGT semi finals

And im okay with Jose at Utd, think its a good fit mate

Made for each other i think is the saying
 
I love the fear Tobes. I'm reading some of the ****e being posted abd it's obvious they can't even convince themselves it's a bad appointment let alone anyone else.

Its a solid appointment, an easy choice though without much thought.
He obviously has a good track record in trophies, but long term it does nothing for utd, which is why I am pleased you signed him. Had you gone for someone like Simeone or Pochetino I would have been annoyed. Also I feel bad for the likes of Rashford who looked a really good prospect.

Emery by an absolute street mate.

I wanted Koeman tbh as I thought he'd be a great fit for our club, but we've been speaking to Emery's agent today, so we'll see how that goes.

Pelligrini doesn't excite me and De Boer is a big risk given he's only worked in the piss poor Dutch league.

I appreciate the lazy Skysports analysis lol. You're trying to convince yourself of all that but we both know it's wishful thinking on your part.

Yeah...I think if you get him it'll be great for you lot....

Was watching the Copa del Rey last week and one of the commentators said that Emry had expressed an interest in the Everton job.

It'd certainly be the kind of statement of intent that we're looking for, but I'm trying to not get excited by the prospect as it'll probably go tits up.....Everton that....

Here's hoping though.

All that? The one point about there being better options than him? Just genuinely appears like there was barely any thought put into his appointment, or at least a lack of effort into weighing up several options.

He must be interested, as we've met with his agent today in London.

Whether that interest concludes with him holding a blue scarf over his head in the Park End, we'll see mate lol

He virtually guarantees trophies mate, who else who might have been available offers that?

He might not stick around for a decade but if he gets them back to being genuine title challengers, then it'll still be 'job done'
 
I thought he clearly stated he was happy at Seville?

Is this thought of as just a tactic for the money?

I mean... from the look of sevilla they have not been great and getting out now might be wise.

Actually think the LVG option was the mistake...listening to yet another Fergie plan: bring him in steady the ship and bring Giggs through. Now they have no choice..no more restarting legacies and all out for immediate trophies.

The gamble is which Mourinho they get...the driven but under control guy or the ego maniac that will ruin the dressing room in one year to add to his cv.

It will be interesting.

What's he meant to say when asked that like?

Actually I fancy pissing off for some more dosh and a bigger transfer budget....

They all say that, means precisely nothing.

His agent wouldn't have been in London with us today if that statement rang true.

It is possible to be very happy somewhere but still take a good opportunity for change if it comes along.

And qualified for the CL.......

He may fancy following on from the great Moyes and Martinez and carrying on that tradition

Mourinho has wanted the United job for years.

He's also a very wounded animal after what those beauts did to him at Chelsea.

Those 2 factors combined will make him more determined than ever.
