New Man United manager

All of a sudden I am beginning to feel impartial towards Man United (i wonder why)

I agree with Richie 77. Ole has been groomed for the job.

Mourinho does not fit the United mold. Be very surprised if they go for somebody who rarely stays for more than two years.

You know a while ago I posted on this forum that I read in some website that Mourinho is expected to replace Fergie and he would bring Ronaldo with.
Wonder if that might end up being true.

Good point

When Matt Busby retired they went through a string of managers and eventually got relegated (one of the happiest days of my life up there with the birth of my children). The problem was that Busby was still involved at the club and trying to influence. Sky say that Ferguson will become a director and a club ambassador. The best idea would be to buy him a season ticket at City and tell him to stay away for a couple of years.

Not sure about all this talk concerning Mourinho being, for want of a better term, disloyal. If you look at his moves they are all fairly understandable...

Porto to Chelsea... financially and future prospects, no competition
Chelsea to Inter... Chelski (the Russian part of the name being paramount) effectively ousted
Inter to Real Madrid... standings in world football at that time (and historically), again no competition
From Real to whoever... clearly not very happy in Spain and it can be a very difficult place to manage, bigger merry-go-round and owner involvement than Chelski

It may well be that he is someone who likes to achieve and move on but I don't think that is proven yet and I think most clubs will take 3-5 years of success than 8 years of nothing! lol

i think you are right englander. All the time that Ferguson was in charge it was all about the team and the players (and the refs off course) but with Mouriniho its all about Mouriniho.

The announcement of the new manager will be made today sometime

Sure its Moyes...

Moyes now 1/8 to get the job

Looks like i owe you 1 pound!

I have an issue with Moyes getting the United job...

all i can say is welcome to utd the mighty special one.deal was done long ago between sir alex and jose that wen sir alex retires jose would take over.forget abt moyes it will be the special one and we will see some quality players join old trafford and we will once again be competitive in europe.
