What you posted was a non sequitur. You must know what that means, you post so many of them you must be on commission.

I know you said synopsis, but here ya go anyways.

Jose on Fellaini:

"I don’t have good news, I don’t have news because I don’t want to give news based on an initial approach but I don’t think the news is very good, he has a problem in his knee, is the same knee but not the same local, was internal, now external, so let’s wait a couple of more days but out of the game tomorrow."

"Is not an ACL, a complete rupture of any structure of the knee, we are not going so far as that but we need him, CL is arriving and lots of tough matches to play and probably we are going to lose for a few weeks. Two, three four or five, I cannot say at the moment."

Jose on Ibra:

"He has never mentioned anything to me. I presume there is nothing true. I suppose if there was any truth I would be the first to know."

Jose on title :

"We need points to be the first of the last. We are trying to finish second."

"I don't remember us being fourth or fifth this season, we're better than last season in every single aspect."

Mourinho on the Munich memorial :

"I was telling before to MUTV that this is something that is part of my life, or part of my football culture before I become Manchester United manager and why because was such a tragedy that stayed in these last 60 years."

"So as Manchester United manager, obviously means much more but I think it belongs to every sportsman as one of the biggest tragedies and at the same time is a crucial point in Manchester United history, the reaction, the strength, the union after that situation and I think tomorrow is an amazing day to show the respect, to show the passion for the club, respect for them, the families and I think is a day to play well, is a day to bring happiness, to bring joy for people to be together, enjoying their colours and at the same time with showing all the respect for the people and the families."

Jose on importance of the game & general form:

"It’s not because of this Munich disaster that the game becomes important for us, the game is important because we need points to be the first of the last, we have to try to finish second, we are in this positions all season, we were first for a few weeks and then we were always second, I don’t remember us being fourth, fifth or sixth, we have been there since the beginning of the season, better than last season in every aspect, points, position, number of goals scored, conceded, better in everything so we have to try to stay there and is not easy because very good teams."

"Chelsea is champions again, fantastic market, Liverpool is a great team, Arsenal improved a lot in the market, Tottenham is a fantastic team and they are five points behind us, so we are doing quite well, with some negative moments, Wednesday was one. Is very important to do better than last season and try to win something, and if not do better."

Dunno if it was mentioned earlier but Klopp said fans needed to be patient with VVD as he "got used to the Liverpool way of defending which was different from Southampton".

Lol.

That should take people's minds off bickering as we laugh at them instead.

Holy Christ the worst part about the other night was the plop that got posted on here after the game. We were terrible and got beaten by a team that played a perfect game. Dosnt mean we are doomed to mid table misery, 3 points tomorrow and it’s looking forward to the next game in a better frame of mind for us all. Come on United

I was gunna say did you not see Spurs doing the formation properly with attacking mid, box to box and defensive mid then remembered you called Dembele a defensive midfielder. Its just not a formation for you to understand.

Nearly happened, we had to beat West Ham and they had to beat Blackburn and we'd win title, we couldn't keep up our end, West Hams keeper played a blinder, that must have been early/mid 90's

Umaro

Showing my age here, but that could've happened the year Blackburn Rovers won it. Liverpool beat Blackburn on the final day but Utd had a horror show at West Ham.

edit: beaten to it!

bangkok

Yep we did everything and just couldnt win that day

I remember listening to it on 5 live whilst lifting stones out of a field on a very warm summer's day and feeling heartbroken. Even watching MOTD that I still had hope the radio was wrong.

I’ve had a rake of beers, but I’m strongly of the view that we’re one midfielder away from sucking diesel and challenging for the title.

And, don’t laugh, I wouldn’t fall off my bar stool if United won the European Cup this year.

In Jose we trust.

Sorry to disappoint but that's impossible, They already won that when they beat Maribor 7-0 away from home

I used to be of that opinion, on paper you could make the case for it.

But not any more, for two reasons. One, this team periodically ****s the bed and produces a horrible performance out of nowhere, chances are pretty high that we will see one of "those" games in the CL and it will be goodnight Irene.

And two, this team is now consistent in failing to perform in big games against rivals and big teams. Last season was bad, this season has been worse, we have been useless against Liverpool, City and Spurs, lost to Chelsea and were blessed to beat Arsenal.

Prone to randomly bad games and very poor against the better teams? Thats not good in a knockout competition against big teams.

Jayop

We are essentially the opposite of Liverpool. Flat track bullies to their game raising cnutyness.

Cantona's Collars

BS rumour of the day courtesy of the Star..

"Jose is willing to let De Gea join Madrid if he gets Bale in return."

akelly02

I’m gonna throw a fiver on Huddersfield today just in case, if we lose the blow will be softened by being €100 richer
