Seriously since 2001 Mourinho has won 8 league titles, 7 domestic cups, 2 CLs and 1 europa league. Since 2001 LVG has won 2 league titles and a domestic cup, failed to qualify for a WC and finish 3rd at another WC.

Mourinho = a good manager
LVG = a bad manager

actually Mourinho is a poo poo clownman and I said this three years ago and everyone told me I was wrong and gay

why we'd go for him now after he's only gone and proven me profoundly factually correct, I couldn't tell you

I can't comprehend how Mourinho would be an upgrade over LVG. I just can't do it. LVG will finish the season as long as United don't spiral out of control.
United have failed to win 8 straight matches and scored like 0 goals in the process so almost any manager would be an upgrade as they've completely quit on the obnoxious dutch.

he won the champions league with Porto which means that he's objectively the best manager after like ron saunders and brian clough.

I just want to add that Henderson played very well against Leicester and I'm excited to have him back, he's like a new signing also Flanagan has played half-an hour for the U21s so is back and like a new signing also.

I'm really excited about Flanno coming back

But not as excited as Flanno is

What injury did Flanagan even have? Feels like he's been out for like two years. That goal he scored against Tottenham was one of my favourite moments in recent years :unsmith:

Also with regards to the forum it just seems there are less posters and the ones that are still here post less. Maybe it's because the Premier League is comprised of twenty bad teams and we're all fairweather supporters.

He had some sort of knee problem right at the start of 2014 which then required further surgery earlier this year. I think it's 19 months which is a bit of a worry.

FWIW I still see pretty much the same posters we just have a rotating series of plastics who come and go and maybe there's less of them these days but that's not really a bad thing.

The only Chelsea matches I watched were the draw and loss to open the season.

The only Leicester matches I've seen are the loss and draw last two.

If Leicester don't win against Bournemouth at home... this is some bullshit.

Shop around for doctors! Always fucking shop for doctors. Doctors are stupid assholes. And they get by because people are cowed by their mystical bullshit quality of being able to maintain a 3.0 GPA at some Guatemalan medical college for 3 semesters. Find one that makes sense.

You are right, he is the Special One. It is no small feat to take the league champions, lose no one of importance, spend almost 60m pounds on new players and then find yourself in a relegation battle by Christmas. That kind of player management touch will serve him well with Wayne Rooney.

Pretty excited to still see Leicester up there - its been a great first half of the season.

Its halfway through the season and all the foreign fancy dans we bought over the summer seem to have got acclimatised to cold tuesdays in Stoke and are playing at their peak again. Sparky is a miracle worker to turn a Pulis team into what we have now in 3 years and roughly 10m net spend or 40m total spend i you think net spend doesn't count. So yeah You could have 1 martial or Stoke's starting 11, pretty fantastic work by sparky imo.
