I thought he was supposed to play for Birmingham or Sunderland last season but he somehow got a UEFA ban for firing his agent?

He got a bonus for some reason and was supposed to give his agent like a £1m cut of it. He claimed he had fired his agent before all of this would have happened, but it didn’t quite work out for him.

Jose Mourinho posted:After the Burnley draw, the Portuguese bemoaned City's spending power, having signed full-backs Kyle Walker and Benjamin Mendy for £102million. Yeah that's definitely the reason you're drawing with Burnley and Leicester and losing against Bristol. E: OK transfers obviously play a role. United have bought poo poo for years now, and Mourinho himself has been guilty of that as well. The team still needs massive overhauls despite the millions upon millions spent, but come on Jose. Spending isn't even remotely the biggest problem right now. Shaman Tank Spec fucked around with this message at 20:01 on Dec 26, 2017 |

He's right in that top tier teams have to spend ridiculous money on mediocre players, but that's all he's right about. I think it's time to replace Jose with SAF's statue. The end result will be about the same.

The press are turning on Jose already, as evidenced by him being heavily misquoted following the Bristol match. He was in full magnanimous mode following that but the press managed to misquote him into being a sore loser. He's a twat, is and always will be a twat, but the press are having a field day with him at the moment. In any other season, this United side would be cruising top of the table, I think he's finding it really hard to deal with Pep hitting peak Pep in Jose's special "second season".

The problem with this argument is that the last three clubs they've come up against are 16th (Leicester), 52nd (Burnley), and 100 (Bristol City) and they've managed to get two draws and knocked out of a cup from that. Doesn't really matter what City/PSG have spent when they perform poorly against the clubs that they've outspent by up to 1250%.

Doesn't really matter what City/PSG have spent when they perform poorly against the clubs that they've outspent by up to 1250%. This said, Burnley also have other impressive scalps away from home this season, Leicester are a good side at home and anything can happen in a cup match. Bristol played really, really well, to just say United were poo poo does them a disservice. Perspective matters, sure you can claim poor defending for Burnley's first, but there's nothing you can do about a loving peach of a free kick that no keeper in the world is keeping out. There are obvious problems in this United team and cracks are showing with Mourinho as I genuinely don't think he expected City to hit the level they have nor do I think he knows how to bring United on another level to compete with that. I think this squad is Jose's best dice throw and the shock is showing through the team at the moment. Earlier in the season, the draws from last season were wins, they're back again now as 2 points lost and the pressure of getting through Christmas unscathed has cracked the team. 2 points from 6 against Burnley and Leicester is a disappointing Christmas for a team that should have been mounting a title challenge.

One point above Chelsea, City would be around there generally, and Tottenham, Arsenal and some other team, oh right, Burnley are keeping up pressure.

Anime_Ladies.html posted:you're not arguing in good faith because you know exactly what i was saying Not really, it looks like you're inexplicably crying about the press being anti-United (they aren't) because they ignore that City has spent more (they don't). Kyle Walker for £50 M was brought up a lot until City started steamrolling or otherwise winning every game. If they started losing it would be brought up a lot more, I promise you. The press love to go on about how much City have spent when they get the chance. Right now the results are keeping that quiet. Ninpo posted:I genuinely don't think he expected City to hit the level they have nor do I think he knows how to bring United on another level to compete with that. To be fair I don't think anyone expected this. It's literally breaking all the records.

José is only great when he is winning things and being a total rear end in a top hat. I’m afraid he won’t reach those heights with United.

It’s a bad run and United will be fine. We wouldn’t be talking about this if City wasn’t insanely good. This all still boils down to Jose for driving De Bruyne out of Chelsea like an idiot

Jose would probably be steam-rolling everyone if the club had spent the 8 years prior to him arriving buying every player and staff member he wanted instead of trying to accommodate the current manager.

City also get a bit of a pass because they play nice football, they play nicely with the press and still have a comedy defensive howler in them to humanise them a bit.
