Manchester United Team Talk/Gossip/Rumours Thread 2016

RobertKK

Rooney says it is "unfair" to be talking about Van Gaal's job when he hs just won and that he is still his manager.

The dogs on the street new he was a goner at the end of the seasoj. To fail to play the United way with muck football and not even make CL football having spend 250m is simply not good enough. I am sure they will give him a payoff aswell. He will hardly be that disheartened

Just think,we are going to have three months of faux outrage by the new moral police of football, the opposition fans. Gonna be great crack on here over the summer.

Think of the children Manchester United.

I still want that DOF and Woodward to go back sponsorships

The reporting of Jose to United has really got the opposing fans going ... It's hilarious, the Arsenal fans seem to be losing the plot totally...

I don't think Jose will be playing the United way. :pac:

Now you're just being silly.

I'm not.

If winning is all that matters, then switch.

But winning isn't all that matters.

And despite what people will obviously say now, the character of the figurehead and public mouthpiece of your club matters.

Meh. We'll get over it when the results start coming in. You lot can continue being too nice to sack Arsene.

For Uniteds sake I hope he has learned something from his time off but I doubt it.

Unfortunately for us the board won't sack Wenger as long as the club is making them money. It's nothing to do with being nice!

Who's losing the plot? Just stating facts. The man has no class.

He has no class. This is a retrograde step for such a great club.

Just look at the Arsenal thread...

We are going to back to our perch of being the most hated club in England once he is signed. I've missed that feeling

There is the right way to do something, and the wrong way.

I am concerned with how the club handles itself and conducts business even if many aren't, if the leak was the club's doing, without even letting the man have his press conference then I am ashamed of them, again. It is classless, it doesn't matter that sacking Van Gaal is still the right decision, how it is handled matters imo.

Go too far down the Real Madrid road of treating people with such disrespect and there is no coming back.

Nothing to suggest that the leak came from United.

Tbh I'm sick of ppl getting butt hurt over this. I'm so glad that we already have a new manager in place and delighted that I won't have to watch anymore of that muck we have been offering up under him the past two seasons and then come out to say our expectations are too high after finishing fecking 5th!

Well done for winning the fa cup Louis but bon voyage.

You're over thinking it. It's sport, it's not some fairy tale of good versus evil. Last time I checked Jose hasn't killed anyone. He's a good manager, as simple as that. While I hope he behaves himself (more or less...). As long as he's winning and not ridiculously downplaying expectations he's going to be popular to United fans. Not that hard to get the head around.

Stating your opinion
There's no proving as fact if someone has class...

We were slipping into that "joke" stage again. I much prefer being in the "hated" category. Means we're doing something right :pac:

It's a fact to many that he lacks class but not to United fans obviously.

Even though I'm not jumping around about Jose, being one of the most hated clubs again makes me smile so fair point

News at ten reporting it too.

Yup.

We never want to fall into that "feel sorry for" category like Liverpool. Then its the time to be worried

Any reports in Van Gaal becoming director of football?

I've no doubt that Mourinio was brought in a while ago.

Surely Van Gaal has known for a while.

Again it's an opinion of many, not a fact.

He abused a doctor for treating an injured player. That's classy alright.

Why are we lambasting the club when Mendes has been confirmed as the leaker ?

Its certainly an opinion alright held by many including plenty united fans. Not a fact though.

PhlegmyMoses

I will say this though. I really like LVG as a man and I was so conflicted when he got booed the other night, because he is a decent and at times hilarious guy who I desperately wanted to succeed. Glad he got the opportunity to win something with us before he retires. Good luck Louis, you crazy beautiful bastard.

Cos it suits opposing fans arguments to say how we are classless

You do know that there apparently is more to that story then that... Maybe it wasn't just a doctor and a player

Ah yeah. He obviously will be, and he'll probably do well enough too.

I don't want to get caught up in the silly Liverpool style rivalries you have here on boards - Simpsons lemons and Cartman tears and all that.

It's not about rivalries - I'm not some petty 15 year old poster, you can see from my previous here.

I'm genuinely just unhappy that he's back in the league. Don't like his style, don't like his teams, don't like his interviews etc.

Add in Pochettino, Wenger, Bilic, Koeman and de Boer (possibly) and that's a serious list of talent all looking at the same goal
