    "I don't need players." - Jose Mourinho, when asked what gifts he would like for Christmas in the transfer window.

    Of course not, after all somebody would have poured petrol on Danny Rose and set him on fire

    ...that's not what you meant, is it?

    He knows he's got a very good squad.

    After all he tried to sign most of them for United

    He said as much in his press conference.
    Tried to sign some for various clubs and didn't even try to sign some of them, as it would've been impossible.

    Anyone think Zlatan could be an option in Jan? Contract finished in the MLS, loves Jose, Jose loves him, we need another striker...

    We could do with a few goals from blatantly offside positions, and he certainly excelled at those when he was at Man Utd...

    To be honest he’s always offside with his brick of a nose.

    I would be open to this on a short-term contract until the end of the season, but no more. The idea of Mino dipshit Raiola hanging around the place for more than 6 months is a no-no, and means HBIC's "Are we the baddies?" gif will become a permanent feature.

    Zlatan and Matic in January wouldn’t surprise me

    Think AC Milan are in for Zlatan though.

    Highly doubt we’ll move for Matic. Jose wanted Dier at Utd before he signed Matic so if he can get Dier performing at pre-2019 form then we should be ok. If not, a new DM will be sought after but I don’t think it’ll be Matic.

    Reckon it will be Sissoko

    For the life of me, I can't see Daniel Levy being keen on either Matic or Zlatan.

    We need to be planning how to get Troy Parrott on the pitch and dropping the age of this team, not increasing it.

    I don’t even think Jose will want Matic. I think he’ll wanna try and get Dier back up to previous levels but if he fails to do so I think a young-ish DM who can be moulded fairly quickly would be a target.

    Zlatan on the other hand, I do wanna see Parrott get chances but at the same time with the predicament we’re currently in, I think Zlatan on a 6 month deal could make more sense. Could be a lot of pressure on Parrott’s shoulders to be expecting him to provide genuine cover for Kane at a time where we really need results.

    Agreed on Dier, Jose is clearly a fan. I’m hopeful we might see more of Skippy too but not holding my breath.

    Got no time for Zlatan and I don’t think him coming here to play second fiddle would be good for us. Rather see Parrott tried.

    People thinking Jose will give Parrott and Skipp chances instead of wanting expensive older players?

    Come on people, this is Jose Mourinho and we all know how he operates. Let’s not just pretend he’s going to suddenly become a different type of manager who plays youngsters and expansive exciting football. <doh>
