Last season for Mourinho was a first, which ever way you look at it, a real failure. For a manager with his glowing record that must have hurt. When you put yourself on such a huge pedestal it's a long long way to fall.
In essence he has taken on a club in a similar position, I said on our page one of the biggest jobs in the world but under the circumstances he's taken over it has to be the biggest job in the world.
He has the tasks of returning you to former glory and the task of rebuilding his reputation, the pressure is huge and clearly seems to be getting to him.
It, from the outside, looks to be on an almost constant knife edge to which way it will fall, he's not getting the answers to the questions he's asking of himself.
Whilst you undoubtedly have talent in the squad, do you have enough. I don't ever recall a United side giving up as they did yesterday. The whole club seems to have lost its identity. Do you think you have a player left who really knows what playing for your club means.
The days when Scholes, Keane, Ferdinand and co crossed the white line knowing they played for United, what it meant and you'd literally have to batter them to get anything from a game. What they would have done to those guys laughing joking and swapping shirts would not make day time tv.

After his transfer, Guardiola stated that they hadn't been able to get him fit for some time hence he hadn't played him.
He actually said, "He is a top, top player. Unfortunately, the last three years he was never in good condition. "
I think it was more the name than the quality you needed to be seen to be signing after the disaster with Di Maria. Made zero sense to me outside of that. Ridiculous reported wages too if true.

Thanks Chris, much appreciated, can't argue with your team either, two individually fantastic sides. It was a pleasure to watch them both.
I'm going to cut and run before I get shot, innocent comment and their after me. Ha ha.
See you over the other side. I'm good and hope all is with you too. :-)

No snags with the apology Chris.
