Utd don't have a scooby at the moment, quite amusing seeing all the scouse comments on my newsfeed on facebook about United being spineless. The same spineless cunts that they were taking the piss out of 9 days ago. for the record. ANYONE BUT LIVERPOOL.
I can't believe how easy Moyes is being treated by the media. He's taken the champions, spent £65M on players and dropped them seven places in the league. He'd be rightly sacked at any other club in Europe for that and the media would be all over him, just think of how AVB was treated. And yet at United it isn't his fault but the players. Players that have won all the honours there is to win in club football are to blame and apparently not the manager who has won the grand total of fuck all.
The truth is he hasn't got a clue. His first thought is to try to stop the opposition playing and then rely on percentage football to try and nick a goal or two. It's medieval football and he's got the likes of RvP, Rooney, Mata, and Kagawa.
The thought of giving him £200M to spend is terrifying.

After the banner came out by the micks DAVID MOYES IS A FOOTBALL GENIUS, I asked a mick why his answer was obvious, but then said he should stay as it's unfair for Utd fans to get on his case in the first season. Really I said, how did the micks drive Roy Hodgson out of the club after torrential verbal and personal abuse from there own.

In Matic / Sala / Shurle / Willian. = about £75 million roughly ..
all buys have been a success .. so quite relative really , how much of a success has Felaini and Mata been for Utd ? Seen Fellaini few times for Everton , was quite a force , at Utd he looks lost , was lazy as fuck last night , and lucky to been red carded .. Mata shows some glimpses of his quality , but he's a luxury in the team , not a complete team player.
Watching Utd last night they had no tactics second half at all , shame because they gave it a good go first half ..
It's his first season and the team has been nowhere near a title for a few years. A right back at left back and no striker. I thought we would struggle to finish top 4.
Arguably but they already had a title winning team and added to it - they spent more than us if you want to talk about money. Our attacking players are still young and developing.
I think the title would already be wrapped up if he was their manager.
It is now generally accepted by the media that he didn't want the United job.
"I knew that Ferguson was retiring many months ago. "I would have turned down every job in the world - the Manchester United job, every one - for Chelsea."
"I think the person who wrote that book shouldn't write books. He should write books for kids using his imagination," Mourinho.

Of course he didn't want the Man U job, possibly one of the biggest clubs in the world. A club synonymous throughout the world..... and steeped in history! Yeah, why go there when you can go to Chelsea
It's easy to say that after the event I suppose but we'll never know for sure as he wasn't given the chance to accept or decline the job. Unfortunately.
One thing's for sure though. With Mourinho in charge at United this season they wouldn't have only scored the same amount of goals at home as Fulham. Or be in seventh place in the league. Or be 'happy with a point' away to Cardiff. Or 'aspire to be like city'. Or claim to be underdogs at home against the vermin.....I could go on and on and on...
I think Jose would have jumped at the chance to go to Utd , if Chelsea hadn't wanted him back , where his heart is. Utd , massive following , massive history , and no doubt a good sized pot for him. so why go back to a club like Chelsea with our mediocre history , CL - FA Cup 6 - League Cup 4 - Top flight 4 - UEFA Cup winners 2 - Super Cup , chuck in a few lower league titles , Full Members Cup , and charity shield. Not bad return really for a London Club , of which there are a good few.
Moyes is there still , 1 because they are still in CL , and 2 how would it look if the King of Old Trafford who picked Moyes had made a major fuck up in recommending him.
'if Chelsea didn't want him' exactly. He loves us and we love him. He couldn't resist coming back. Duncan Castles is reliable when it comes to Mourinho and Chelsea. His stories have been validated time and time again. He said Mourinho always wanted Chelsea once he knew it was possible.
I was thinking yesterday, you know in the past TV series'/films have always tried to show city fans as being like the depressed mancunions, the ones you think 'ah thats a shame they support a team who are constantly belittled by their neighbours?? You know;

Paul Calf is the best example.
They are typecast like this for a reason mate, and that's because the majority are scruffy herberts and are also massive dicks.

That's what iv said for a few years now. I know a fair few who support Man Utd but are Londoners born and bred... Never been to old Trafford.
