Careful now

You're here to debate the ins and outs of our glorious club at length as naseum....

You've to do so in detail and with stats,heat Maps etc back up you're opinion or prepare to be shot down...

You've got to be able to coddle the masses even when you disagree and think Fellaini is exceptional,and Rooney is our greatest ever player... and admit we made mistakes selling welbs,tclevz23,Nani,Hernandez etc
And remember Anderson was not in fact fat just big boned and still has cesc and Stevie me in his back pocket...

Rachel's just a distraction

Haven't been following the thread much lately , how are people feeling about Zlatan's contract extension? Don't see what he has done to warrant it myself, just hope to Christ it is a back up striker but I have my doubts if he will be too keen in this role. Don't see why it was done so early in the season and why the club didn't wait till April or May to make a decision on it.

It was built into the original contract. So it's not really an extension. It automatically kicks in at some point there's not been any actual extension talks.

The news must be bringing horrible memories back to people like Bobby Charlton.

Even though I suspect most of us United fans in this forum weren't around for the horror of Munich disaster. We know the history and the gifted team of players that was lost. Chapecoense fans woke up to learn that their team no longer existed. I think United fans can sympathise with them more than any. RIP to all those who lost their lives.

United have taken another 2 scouts from City as they continue to try to regain the ground they lost to them in the development of academy and underage players.

It's only 'Sky sources', but there's word that Schweini could feature tonight against West Ham. It was only 'Bild' reporting before the weekend that he would be in the squad for last Sunday's match and they were right, so you never know...

http://www.skysports.com/football/news/11667/10677521/schweinsteiger-set-for-efl-bow

I didn't know that Fellaini's yellow card on Sunday was his 5th of the season too, same as Pogba, so he is also suspended for tonight's game.

Hard to take anything the Daily Mail writes seriously. 'Troubled world of Jose Mourinho' in the headline doesn't bode well for the rest of the article. It's not exactly balanced!

Always worth remembering headlines and the summaries are done by people other than the journalists themselves.

Whenever I'm reading something I just go straight to the first paragraph, headlines and the bullet point headers are clickbait of the highest order. And I'm normally only reading something on a newspapers website because someone else has told me "it's a decent read"

You'd have to be blind or hold a grudge not to see the amount of progress we've made.

The results are still shít but for the most part Jose has done his job and the players need to start putting teams to the sword.

West Ham, Stoke, Burnley and Watford, 8 points dropped in games we absolutely should have won. All of these games came after a midweek one but I can't have that as an excuse, we didn't look lethargic, 4 of our front 6 against West Ham were fresh.

Sorry but this is the point that is causing the conflict and issue among those of us(and it feels like I'm in the massive minority) who are having some serious issues with the team and manager.

Again with football, it's dealing in the extremes. As you just say, I'm blind, or have a grudge, perpetrating this threads myth that I'm out to get Mourinho.

Should I start calling people who are calling this progress as being blind? Sorry maybe there is a massive statistical lie out there going unchalleneged. But I'm pretty sure we are now in the worst start to a season since the 80's, the worst start in the PL era, the worst home form for 30 years, and doing worse then Moyes or Van Gaal at the same stage.

The results are still shít
You just said it yourself, and maybe some people need to wake up a little, get a little more realistic, and stop feeling the need to defend everything to the hilt. This isn't criticism coming from an ABU or a liverpool fan looking for a rise, there is genuine critique coming from our own fanbase here.

The results being worse, would indicate at this point(So important to note, to this point, I'm not forecasting) a regression and a pretty significant one.

As always the end will justify the means, and where we finish end of season will make many issues potentially mute, or amplify them further.

I was going to maybe dial things down a bit posting wise, but then realised that simply just justifies and acknowledges those who are peddling I've an anti-mourinho agenda. SO no, I know that is not the case here, and I'm going to challenge opinion or statements I strongly disagree with.

I think your way of the mark saying that fans who are concerned with OUR WORST LEAGUE START IN OVER TWO DECADES are blind or have a grudge.....

Well I guess his benefits in terms of experience,aura and the likes can be pretty immeasurable.

But in pure footballing terms, he has 7 goals in 12 games in the league, which is a pretty good start. His general linkup play is pretty good and he's got clear vision and creativity around the box with play ahead of him.

So I think all things considered, he's been a pretty good free agent, and is still probably on course to return a really good league number of goals.

No, you're an ABM.

It's handy for your argument that you can use the stats as evidence and these results are "facts" as Benitez once said but they don't show the full picture. For example, stoke, Burnley and arsenal should have been wins. I know you can come back and say shoulda woulda coulda but really those results did not match the play at all and that's what the argument is about here...are we playing better than the last few years? Results say no but what the majority can see is, yes our play has improved. A lot.

You come across as a sound fella but it's getting a bit tiresome this drum you keep banging. You're in the minority with this opinion for a reason. The rest of us aren't headbangers or something.

ericzeking

The concern around Mourinho which I see, and the football has been better, is that he is not having the instant cataclysmic impact he has had elsewhere at least in the results stakes.

Moyes and LVG were afforded little enough time by the same sections of the fanbase that are now rigorously defending that Mourinho should be given plenty of time despite the fact he has never needed time before and was not hired to be given time. He was hired as the golden ticket back to the CL.

There is something very strange about all of that.

I'm also happy to say I never wanted him and he has done pretty much nothing to convince me otherwise, it wouldn't bother me in the slightest if he was sacked in the morning, he has created an apathy towards the team in my brain.

There's nothing strange about it.

Mourinho has us playing our best stuff in years, the posters here who criticised Moyes an LVG can see progress being made with regards to our style of football, this just wasn't the case with the previous managers.

OK so you've actually made me search my own historical posts.

I wanted to scrutinise myself, to see if :
a) I've displayed an anti-Mourinho agenda before he came into the club
b) If my posts and issues/concerns have been valid and tempered
c) If I've shifted the goalposts on myself.

So bear with me here.

The following is a post made 8 months ago in response to Adox, from looking at the context, was him responding to a general trend of posts whereby posters here, were not thrilled with the prospect of Mourinho
http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=99143755&postcount=4865

Here is another post from around the same time frame(in March the thread was having a conversation about Mourinho replacing Van Gaal). I'm responding to what looks to have been discussion regarding Mourinho and young players.
http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=99144384&postcount=4886

Another from that same discussion
http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=99144725&postcount=4891

And another, this time touching (for the first time) on how I'll temper expectations based on the "version" of Mourinho we get, dictated by the board. Again, this is March.
http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=99143630&postcount=4856

Some more
http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=99143571&postcount=4854

Into May now, regarding expectations again
http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=99606353&postcount=9174

Here is my first post referencing Mourinho, after Van Gaal was sacked
http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=99809288&postcount=4187

A post around the first time Pogba to United surfaced
http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=100161280&postcount=9209

And I could go on and on and on.

The point I'm making here (beside reading my own historical posts and feeling vindicated a bit) I've been pretty consistent and level, as far back as March, with my concerns and issues that accompany Mourinho. But you also see, that I'm fully in support of his arrival. And at no real point, can I find any post, where I'm not happy Mourinho has arrived. But it's in clear text, all the concerns and issues I have.

That many have come to pass, so friggin quickly, is obviously a personal "ah ffs I knew it" but I'm finding it incredibly frustrating that there is an imagine being painted about me, by some posters, that is clearly just ignoring my consistency dating back to March, months before Mourinho signed up.

So for my initial points :

a) I've displayed an anti-Mourinho agenda before he came into the club
Absolutely no trace of it. I've displayed positivity and excitement at the prospect when it was first rumoured, while also tempering that excitement with valid concerns and issues, based from Mourinhos managerial career
b) If my posts and issues/concerns have been valid and tempered
I think they have. Posts discussing in detail if his myths are actual myths or have basis in reality, and forecasting a number of issues and concerns, of which plenty have come to pass THUS FAR
c) If I've shifted the goalposts on myself.
Well I don't feel I have. What I do feel has happened, is that the cult of Jose has gone into full blooded effect in certain quarters, and posters (I don't know if new around here or weren't that active earlier this year) have taken my current issues,concerns and problems as immediately knee jerk and having an anti-mourinho agenda, when in fact I'm probably more frustrated about it, cause it was **** I (and we as a collective) outlined and discussed them in some detail


A few of those posts looking back were pretty ironic. When Mourinho was first muted, there was some significant backlash from posters here. References to his "rubbish style", his "boring football" and his "archaic character" and him being "an embarrassing figurehead" for the club. I read a good few pages before and after to see the context, and there was some posts a lot more "anti-mourinho" then I would have ever displayed. The irony you ask, is that some of the posters involved are some of the ones taking issue with my critique and painting me to have an agenda haha

It's not even an opinion I'd take on board, we have absolutely improved. It hurts to lose now, because we have done more than enough in games to win comfortably. The last 3 seasons it didn't hurt, when we dropped points it was a completely fair result.

Mourinho has got the team playing a more than satisfactory brand of football, the next step will hopefully see us get the rewards we deserve.

We should have been 4 goals up v Burnley at half time, we should have put West Ham away Sunday with Ibra's chances and Rashford's one on one, we completely outplayed Stoke at OT, Ibra missed a one on one in the second minute and so too did Pogba after 15 minutes. 6 points extra and we are right in the thick of it.

If this continues for the whole season then I'll ask questions of Jose, but right now the players need to put the ball in the fcuking net when the chances come, Mourinho can't do it for them.

Sorry but that is just wiping away bad memories entirely.

There was a clear spell under Van Gaal in his first season, I believe it being maybe just before or after Christmas, when he moved to a 4-3-3 and it looked like something amazing was about to happen.

That was the frustration with Van Gaal. When I thought he had worked it out, it was then two steps back.

Would agree that Moyes was just a total void of hope after a certain point. But then you were operating on the assumption he would have time, considering the bags the club made of his transfer windows, and considering the state of the squad he got, but that's all hypothetical.

I'm sorry I can't fully subscribe to Mourinho having us playing our best stuff in years, freak results or not, the start has been terrible. Playing your best stuff in years, does not leave, Manchester United, sitting 6th 13 games in or whatever it is.

Fully happy to accept and agree with comments,opinions or sentiments that the teams performance are giving cause for hope, seem to be an offensive improvement on last year, and there is roots you hope spring up there that would lead to a bit of an assault/charge as the season matures further.

This is what I find pretty funny to be honest. When it came to Van Gaal you couldn't see the woods for the trees, you never seemed to be able to see that he was obviously failing and that he was never going to turn it round. There was no amazing period, there were no signs of any revival, there was one silly little 4 game spell in March/April of his first season that kept being used to justify the most foolish of hopes that Van Gaal could be a success. You could point to all the individual results you wanted but you seemingly couldn't recognise that the bigger picture always remained the same, that Van Gaal wasn't working and wasn't going to work.

And here we are now, and you still can't see the woods for the trees, except this time its from the opposite direction. We are improving, the signs are there that we can be effective again, certain individual results don't matter and the bigger picture is that this manager can be a success for us. And you still can't see what is obvious to many.

Always disliked him and still do.. not going to be hypocritical. Still want best for the club though... 50 + years supporting them, offering up holy communion to beat pool for the title and relegation from old 1st division.....
Just hope Mourinho proves me wrong... big time.

No,you still need to be a customer.Channel 5 will be showing the highlights,you can get that FTA alright.If you have an older white box simply remove the sky card and plug the box in.If it's a black box then you need to tune it in and view under Other Channels-a quick google will get the frequency and show you how to do it.
