Film is bad, I saw it at a preview on the 17th. The action parts are good but the story and when they try to build tension etc are really bad.

Big one this weekend with the final of the Copa del Rey between Barcelona and Sevilla. Would love Sevilla to play like they did on Wednesday and win it. In reality it is a meaningless match as both are n next season's CL so it is just for pride
BBC: Mourinho to be named as Manchester United manager on Tuesday - http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/36351371
Presumably they will push Van Gaal upstairs. I know United fans have over weaning expectations, but he's just won them a cup for heaven's sake.
And I was hoping he'd keep them crap for at least one more season.

Why do they get a Champions League place for their version of the FA cup?
That's just cheating...
So, with the Premier League and FA Cup finished I'm happy to announce that I've made £85 on our work fantasy football - 3rd overall (out of 21), the Golden Boot and 1st for this month. I'm going to be gloating for months... 
Barca top & Sevilla winning the final of the Uefa cup. Champs League. That's fair, surely?
The BBC journalist who broke tonight’s LvG/Mourinho news says that the decision was made after he lost the game against West Ham from a winning position to basically hand Manchester City qualification for the Champions League.
Yes. In all the leaked news it doesn't say anywhere that ManU have announced anything, only that they will. People have been going on all evening that ManU have announced Mourinho as manager and that it was a bit dodgy of them to do in the face of Van Gaal having won a major trophy. Well, yes it might have been had they done so.
I'm no fan of ManU but some people's reactions [in the wider internet world, I'm sure we've all been very sensible here
] have been way over the top.I can understand sacking Van Gaal. But why Mourinho? Are they that bereft of ideas? Plenty of good managers out there, and Man U should have the money and prestige to get them. At least make a play for Simeone or something.
Yes, Mourinho is such a dislikeable character and I think Man U have made a big mistake. Wherever he goes, he leaves a trail of controversy and unhappy people behind. He might bring them some success but at what cost to youth development and to the supposed 'family' structure that the club has.
If you think Mourinho is dislikeable wait til Simeone gets here!!!
Was discussing that with my brother, this morning.
Mourhino's love for older players could unsettle a few of their gems and you would wonder if Rashford would have played as many games under JM, as he has under LVG.
Still, if we can't persuade Tadic to stay with us, (or even if we can), Juan Mata is probably already looking for his next move and would be worth an enquiry, IMO.
He's kinda like the Cortese of management. Gets the job done, but at what cost?
