Would Mourinho hang around until the end of the season? Would you take that risk? Not like he'll be short of offers
 
That would surely be a massive F you to Chelsea fans if he immediately signed with Man Utd?
Being fired twice is tough, however it wasn't the fans choice, and he was still loved by most. Be interesting to see what he does.
 
Why would it. He was sacked, he didn't leave and the United job would be available now or never potentially.

I doubt it, what's he supposed to do? Turn down a job like that because of a loyalty to a club that fired him? For the second time...

As above, if he just left to join United then yeah, there would be uproar.
 
A few bookies have suspended betting on Mourinho taking over at United. And twitter seems to be full of people claiming Van Gaal has already been sacked.

Usually a case of 'no smoke without fire' when there's this much talk going around
 
i wouldn't be surprised if roman pays mourinho a little extra to not take the united job

no way he'll allow the possibility of a manager he has sacked putting chelsea to the sword now i think about it and mourinho may not take the risk. he knows the league and has maybe had enough of it?

Huh? Mourinho is very rich, will earn lots in the future, doesn't give a **** about the man who just sacked him and wants to manage United. Nothing you have suggested is even a little likely.

you may be right but where has he gone into depth about wanting to manage utd?
 
In fairness, Mendes wouldn't come out and say Mourinho has been offered the job when LvG is still the manager. That wouldn't be good.

It feels like something is brewing, I suspect the press conference tomorrow with LvG will provide further clarity, assuming he's still the manager.

I think they're reluctant to sack him really, but a negative result against Stoke will leave them with no choice, even if it meant Giggs. :(
 
I've got a horrible feeling that if LvG doesn't lose all the games over christmas he will be allowed to continue until the end of the season. Either that or the messiah will take over and ensure our mediocrity for the next few years.
 
Much as my patience with LvG has all but run out. I am not sure that Jose is the right man for United. He is hardly well known for his entertaining football. He even made Madrid look pragmatic at times. He is such a polarising figure also and quite often shows a distinct lack of class. He has gone down in my estimation.
 
I would take Mourinho simply because he will restore some belief, win us trophies and attract top players. I have zero faith that we will appoint someone better if we don't get him. My biggest fear is that we will let Giggs loose on the team for a few years.
 
We are in the **** position choice wise of being so bad that we will struggle to persuade any manager that come the end of the season we will have CL football so I fear if we don't get mourinho we will end up with another second rate choice if we wait until the summer.
 
LvG just stormed out of his press conference after asking for an apology from the media. A man under pressure.

Pretty clear now that he'll be getting the Stoke game to save himself, which is a frankly ridiculous situation to put him in, and won't change anything either way.
 
Yep

Can't see us beating Stoke away. And a part of me is hoping we don't and get beaten badly just so he'll be gone
