I think its a great appointment for united, they need someonengo put them back on the map short term and Jose is the man for that. Next year the prem is going to be mad with all the big name managers, Id say he will be having a lot of verbal battles, wouldnt mess with conte or the new watford manager though, they look like complete head the balls.

Which are completely meaningless and merely something created by the media as filler for their coverage.

I wouldnt say its meaningless, Jose uses it as a tactic to put the media attention on him and take the pressure off his players.

The players can simply ignore the media coverage, I'd imagine most of them don't give a toss about the media. Mourihnio seems to enjoy the attention for the sake of it partly as he never had it as a player and wants to be the star of the show now.

Kevin Keegan losing his temper has lead to 20 years of bull about mind games between managers.

Thats just my opinion on it though I could be totally wrong.

If nothing else, this is going to make next season a spectacle for all supporters. All of the so-called best managers in the world (except Ancelotti!) now pitted against each other with similar resources...

Could be a total shishow with the managers and their egos taking away from the football or it could be one of the best seasons of football we've had in some time.

I'm excited by the changes as a football fan. I'm so-so about José going to utd as a Chelsea fan.

Harry Palmr

Well that's the youth policy out the window! and Mata presumably. PSG would suit him.

Must say it was good of Team Mo to wait an hour or two before making it known for certain.

How this appointment sits easy with United fans is beyond me

It doesn't with a good few going by previous opinions. Football fans in general are fickle so if he starts winning he'll be liked

I know right. Should have brought Hitler back from the dead and let him have a go. Would have sit easier.

An example of someone who was firmly in the No camp a few months ago!

All the big managers yes..yet all the big player still want to play anywhere but England.

Why wouldn't it.He basically guarantees success.I'd find it quiet odd for anyone having a big issue with him as a manger. 3 years there and they'll probably win the league at least once and the rot will have been stopped.Really they should have brought him in the replace Ferguson as bringing Moyes in as a long term appointment clearly allowed the players off the hook for a while and they relaxed a bit as they knew there wouldn't be pressure on them to deliver success immediately.

Sure Mourihno is a bit of a prick at times but Ferguson was no angel either.

It's absolutely hilarious "concerned" rival fans that don't "sit easy".

Mourinho's aura has been shattered, and without that he's half the manager. He's broken, and this appointment will prove a huge mistake.

No I hope the b@stards crash and burn and the Jose appointment puts the final nail in their coffin

Just shocked that your average red thinks that doing a deal with the divil for a tiny chance of future silverware and in doing so sacrifices the "United way" is something to celebrate

From a supporter of a club that pulled the rug from under their existing manager, a club rife with money leeched from the blood of slaves, a club that cannot even buy fans despite spending over a billion pounds since its inception.

Wow, just wow.

"The City way"

Your all dead right. He has a terrible record as a manager. Has never had success as a manager as he has dragged himself from club to club around Europe's mediocre clubs. What were Man Utd thinking........

Deal with the devil?

You do know who bought the PL for City, yeah?

I saw an interview with Mike Summerbee about 7 years ago and I thought he had suffered some kind of head injury with the delusion nonsense he spouted.

Its clearly something that is ingrained in you lads.

Staggering, really, really staggering.

And he leaves every club in a shambles. In it for the short term gain when we need long term planning. Big mistake.

Jose imagine that

Sitting on your bench

Memory of a goldfish

The desperation for repeated success hanging by fingernails week in week out

"The "XXXXX Club" Way" is a load of old bollox though, it doesn't mean a damn thing.

Now, if Liverpool and, to a lesser extent, City fans are to believed, United have been the worst of the worst since forever anyway, so it's bloody hilarious to see these people hand-wringing and being all concerned about the club appointing Mourinho as manager.

Yeah lads, it's just awful isn't it. The club you hold in such high regard is appointing a manager you can't fúcking stand.

Good.

Utd should have move LVG on a couple of weeks ago . They waited too long and now they've missed out on B-Rod.

3 maybe 4 clubs in Spain, 2 clubs in Germany, Juventus in Italy and PSG in France and as we saw in the January transfer window now China.
