Feel sorry for LVG, he's blooded some great young players like Rashford and Lingard, and several others who are promising, Mourinho just buys players usually. They are on about LVG's football but Mourinho is much more negative.

Hmm... someone's drunk. Oh dear. <laugh>

Not sure what you mean by 'shat himself on Question Time', but I'll leave it as I'd rather use my time better than arguing with pissed imbecile.

Goodnight. <ok>

Did you get ****ed by Ron Jeremy or whatever his name is in Question Time?

1) LVG didn't give Man Utd those great young players, they were already there.

2) Mourinho has the record as a title winner whose team scored the most goals IN HISTORY. Yeah, really negative...

I actually edited that just before you posted the reply as I worded it wrong, Mourinhos tactics generally are negative, surely i'm not dreaming it
 
I think I'm thinking more of big games, perhaps Bum Chin is right and against the likes of Wigan Mourinho lets the players express themselves but you got the impression the likes of Hazard and a few others were sick of his ways
 
Mata just came to mind as I was thinking about this, didn't he sell him because he didn't work hard enough despite being Player of the Year and scoring a shedful of goals, maybe what I should say Mourinho is more about work ethic than flair

He's more about winning. You can't carry players who don't work hard, simple as. Jose's teams have plenty of flair players but they also contribute without the ball. Willian is the epitome of this.

Wonder what Giggs will do. Is he going to stay as the bag carrier for yet another manager or is he going to man up and get managerial experience elsewhere? Is he going to have a choice?
 
Wow, winning the FA Cup is truly important in 2016......NOT!!! Win it Saturday evening, Get fired Monday morning. There is a bit of a Real Madrid way of thinking creeping in here now. If winning the FA Cup meant something, just as winning the Europa Cup has suddenly become important , would they have sacked him? This action truly diminishes the FA Cup even further - seemingly a pain in the ass competition now for any team with eyes focused on Champions League, Europa, or trying to gain promotion or avoid relegation

The decision was made long before the FA Cup final, whatever happened in that game wasn't going to save him, he spent £200m and didn't make the top four.
 
The rot had set in at the end of Fergies time for me, Moyes and LVG were in no-win situations with the squad Ferguson left them, even now they are using the likes of Young and Valencia. I think they should have given LVG another year after the FA Cup and factored in the work he did with the likes of Rashford and Lingard amongst others, how much money would Rashford be valued at now, surely it would be the same amount paid for Martial if not more
 
Van Gaal will leave Man United with a pay-off of £4,554,000, plus a £400,000 bonus for winning the FA Cup.

Man United get a £4m bonus from Adidas for winning the FA Cup.
