We lucked out once. We don't usually do long term managers.

They deserve each other. Ugh.
Mourinho's teams aren't dull?

Most hated team gets the most hated manager. Match made in heaven.

Old Trafford to extended the club car park for all those buses he's planning on parking.

I'm a Chelsea fan and wouldn't be upset if Jose won them everything. My favourite manager.

Lies. Mou's tiny cock will wilt when faced with Klopp under any circumstance. Watch.

Was very apprehensive to the idea at first as a United fan.
Certainly have warmed to it however. Will do the club a lot of good to have a manager of his caliber after this season. Will get the best out of players like Schweinsteiger and Schneiderlin and won't be too scared to drop Rooney should he go through a sunday-league level period again.
Strange people label him boring. I'm sure his Madrid side broke the goal scoring record when they lifted the La Liga?

Isn't that being a bit hypocritical? Mourinho always gets sacked after 3 seasons! Those clubs always sack managers! Could be coincidence
Still should be something to aspire to.
It's far from coincidence, he makes enemies everywhere he goes.
Nope. Supremacy is over. These are cylcical/generational and it's the turn of other teams now.
Lesta have turned it upside down. They may never win it again, but over the next ten years they'll have won it more times than Utd.
Soz.
Cant wait for those Derbys.

It's José not Jose. Seems to be a strangely common mistake.

I'm excited. Curious how he'll shape the team, especially when bringing in players despite no Champions League.

Not really, no. There's nothing inherently better about keeping the same manager around for years on end for the sake of "stability". Look at Arsenal and their stability - two trophies in 12 years.

I'm on board just for the drama. Next season is going to be spectacular.
Walking in a Mourinho Wonderland.

You're a big guy.
A has been who won the league in the previous year. It may not work out for Man United, but this is a moronic opinion.

Football fans have so much hate in their hearts. You don't see such remarks of "scum this" "cunts that" anywhere else as often as in football rivalries. Some banter is funny but soo many really believe the shit they spout.
I can live with it in the EPL, the reason I hate the SPL is its that same anger from boys and men mixed in with religion and bigotry.
So I'm a Scot who doesn't give a fuck about the SPL.

one of the most successful managers going so not a flop.
and didnt so much fire her as reduce her role at the club till she quit, then sued them and won.

That whole situation was a shitshow. Mourinho was totally in the wrong. Just gotta hope the Man Utd hierarchy keeps his insane side in the bottle.
I'll take it, I don't think his attitude and media baggage is right for the club but he'll get results and right now with no CL again, it's what we need. He's also won things recently so will be able to attract players.
Gaal may have won the fa cup, but the football has been fucking dire and he's shown little to no sign of accepting that fact, on top of that, who wants to go and play in that team right now under him?
Could have given the guy a few days before leaking it to the press though.
Genuinely would prefer Klopp but that won't happen any time soon now.

He was yeah no doubt. Can't deny he's an absolutely fantastic manager tho. Proven winner wherever he goes and it's what United need know. They need to get back to challenging for the title, not fighting for fourth

More so they need to make good players want to sign for the club and try and keep current players who are good (De Gea for one). I think the only chance we have of keeping him could be JM and some statement signings. Not sure David would want another season under LvG.
Sadly I still think he'll leave for Madrid.
Well their long term goals are a complete miss right now and the longer they miss on Champions League places the more their stocks go down. They need a short-term fix and Mourinho is usually the man for that. They just need to get some world class players in. Their current squad bores the world to tears.

Mourinho will manage to bring the best out of Schweinsteiger and Schneiderlin I'm sure. Both have had their roles greatly restricted by LvG this season.
I had questions over Schweinsteigers fitness when we signed him, but he played a lot of football before his injury. Heck he's even been named as captain in the Germany euro squad! He'll have a big role to play next season.
I hope Mourinho reinstills some confidence in Herrera, he has had it shattered by LvG.

I'm using flop in the ghetto way
And yeah, that makes more sense. What a fucking sod.
Unlikely, the crazy always comes out
and it's Götze, not Gotze or Goatse, but (almost) no one can be bothered, sorry mate.
