Love it! This isnobtime to talk about where clubs will finish but the upheaval within their club could be an exception.

Well if they can talk if Liverpool winning it after three games I don’t see any reason not to talk of a relegation battle for United.

It’s more fun.

Losing to a fellow top-6 isnt the end of the world but the Brighton match was bad and all of the negativity in the press is bad. Typical 3rd season Mourinho

I doubt Woodward actually either has the balls or the inclination to sack him so soon after the seasons start. Who would he get as a replacement now? No, we will still have the joy of Mourinho for a while longer

Theres talk of Zidane. Im sure Pogba would love that.

+1.
We need him to blow the Xmas budget on two new crap defenders ; after that, his assignment will be complete and he can be extracted.

Pardew has to be the replacement should he go.

I think they'll go all out for Poch.

Getting him would be easier said than done though. Maybe Simeone would work...

They really are in crisis.

Samuel Allardyce has to be the choice in their relegation battle.

The problem there is also the squad. The rags fans think they really have top players, but deconstructing one by one, they are mediocre at best. Rashford is the only one that I would take from there.

Funny when Martial came and they said it was the next big thing. Add to that they bought the last 2-3 players just to stop us, but without thinking ahead if those would fit their system.

Piss poor funny, but they deserve it.

In buying sanchez they have essentiallybought a rod for their own back.
Their dog in the manger attitude to signing a player just because it was someone we wanted is going to cost them hugely next year,
when all their out of contract players come to negotiate. This could affect them for years to come.
The most sensible attitudes I've read on the ragcafe(spit) is that coming from the fans that say, forget about winning for the next 3-5 years and go back to the drawing board. They need some proper planning, not just the next high profile manager. They need a proper direction and identity.
A lot realise that we didn't just end up with Pep, it was years in the planning.
Our whole club and academy was building for that and preparing for it for years.

A few PL managers are doing what they can to get Xmas off.

Wagner at Huddersfield, Benitez at Newcastle and Hughes at Southampton all staking a claim to lose their jobs.

Actually think Mourinho is safe. The rags have turned into Arsenal in that they are more than happy not to win trophies, or even compete for them, as long as they qualify for the CL and the money keeps rolling in. Whilst they can finish 4th Mourinho is safe. I’d imagine he has clauses in his contract restricting a payout in the event of his sacking should CL football for the following season not be sequered.

Mo is the clear favorite with the bookies to be the next manager to go - they give odds of almost Evens.
Next in line are Warnock and Hughes at around 6/1.

It has to be Pogba or Mo to go.
Tough one for the Glaziers. They will follow the money. So Pogba to stay, Mo to go.
Hope I am wrong - Mo looks like he has not got it anymore and he would burn another fortune of Rags money on failure.
