Things gonna get alot worst rather than better if past experience is anything to go by. If you think we’ve hit rock bottom, think again.

Stay strong guys...:(

Going by past experience (based on JM's stint at Chelsea) we would have to be just above relegation zone in the bottom 1/4 of the table before the board will do anything. That is equivalent to 2 more losses, provide the teams below us win their next 2 matches as well before the board will start acting.

It can be this month if we lose against Newcastle, Chelsea and Everton but I doubt that we will lose all 3 unless JM does something really stupid to sabotage the lineup/tactics. Even a draw is not that bad a result and that is the more realistic result. It's an early Christmas miracle if we manage to win all 3 and beat Juve at the same time.

Napoli beat Liverpool 1-0 with a last min goal. Liverpool could not get 1 single shot. Most likely Napoli controlled the midfield & had a solid defense. Maybe this is the only way to beat Liverpool.

even if we knew how to beat pool but we still cannot win cos our players cmi. if there is best dance moves contest then our team probably can win.

"What I find disappointing is those players are happy for Mourinho to take the blame. They should be admitting the fact that they are responsible for the way they're playing."

"They're throwing him under the bus, despite putting in poor performances every week. And they're getting away with it. Some players want Man United to get beat, just so that there's pressure on Mourinho to be sacked."

"The amount of times that you see a new manager go to a club and suddenly, the whole team are up for it. You have to question the attitude of the players."

Lol. Karma to JM for always throwing his players under the bus and parking the bus. Even Manchester police didn't want to escort their bus anymore. After his remarks about them yesterday, he can forget about getting anymore escorts in the future and he'll have to plan leaving their hotel earlier else risk a fine.

Guess this is what happens when he turned everyone against him. They will slowly fight back.

"My stance hasn't changed," he told a news conference to announce his squad for his country's games against Spain and Republic of Ireland.

"United are going through a tough time at the moment, but change now and you will be in the same position in a year or two years, quite possibly.

"I believe he should keep his job. The problem of late has been of forward planning. They should take stock -- they are going through a tough time."

nothing to do with what he said that will cause United future escort problems.

All police deployments are carried out following a comprehensive risk assessment process and, specifically in respect of escort team buses, are only ever undertaken on occasions when there is intelligence or information to suggest a risk of threat or harm to the players.


“GMP has previously used police vehicles to accompany a team’s coach but after a review of our core policing responsibilities, it was decided that we would no longer provide this service at every fixture.

“We consulted with the relevant football clubs over a period of months to allow them adequate time to plan ahead for their journeys to the stadium.

“Every fixture is assessed individually and we will continue to work with all clubs to provide an appropriate policing response.”

http://www.espn.com/soccer/english-premier-league/23/blog/post/3647791/premier-league-style-of-play-rankings-put-manchester-united-in-the-danger-zone

no prizes for guessing correctly our ranking by the style we played in the league.

20. Manchester United
Style: passive defending, direct attacking

The problems Jose Mourinho encounters in his third season are well-documented, but usually that has followed a couple of campaigns of relative success. This time, Mourinho still seems no closer to assembling a cohesive side in any department. A reliable centre-back partnership remains a distant dream; questions about Paul Pogba's role haven't been answered; and up front United have invested huge sums in Alexis Sanchez, who hasn't combined regularly with his teammates. What's the game plan? It's hard to see, and you wonder whether even Mourinho knows sometimes.

Verdict: an identity crisis

I read the part before when they mention if there's a risk or threat that will harm the players, and also the latter about each fixture is assessed individually.. So prob after his remarks, they can just assess everything as having no risk even if there's one. Lol.

Police already informed them beforehand but still want to leave late and can blame them in public. Really? I believe the away team have a higher risk than the home team yet they can arrive on time.

Anyway, this is just another of his ways of diverting attention.

'Too many players are over-complicating matters'

'Will United sack Mourinho? I don't know but I honestly don't think changing managers all the time is the solution.' - Berbatov

So Berbatov doesn't agree to sack JM (or it could be any other manager). Ince doesn't believe it's all JM fault. Keane doesn't believe it's all JM fault. Giggs doesn't believe sacking JM solve anything.

But hey, what do they know! They are all expired old players okay! Fans no expiry date, fans know better than them okay! Sack JM now!

Yes, whether we stick with JM or sack him, we will continue to fall. We need Ed to wake up his idea and derive a long-term strategy to bring us forward. Then he can decide what he wants to do with JM, rather than always knee-jerk.

But based on his track record, I suggest we find additional hobbies that can cheer us up for the time being...
