Also questioned our quality in comparison to the other teams.
 
Two games ago he said aim was to be in top four by the end of the year. At this rate he'll be saying it'll be a miracle to finish in the top 8 this season by the start of next year.
 
March: "Not finishing bottom would be a feat even Fergie couldn't manage."
 
Got a manager doing hopeless results wise and on top of that he hammers the players almost daily and absolutely takes the piss out of the club in every interview. How the feck is he still here?! Like how are people at boardroom level not like "ok, we all had enough of this twat now? Results are shit and he's a tool". He should have been gone after his disgusting comments post Sevilla.

Are we afraid to upset Jorge Mendes?

Two games ago he said we'd be in the top 4 by the end of December.
 
Wait, didn't he say we'd be in the top four by Xmas?

How is he allowed to spout this shite without anyone pulling him up on it?
 
Well, let's be honest, he's right.

But it's because he's the manager.

They should sack him for gross misconduct / bringing the club into disrepute and let him sue us. We have far deeper pockets and it would be nice to feck his future career up. He is blatantly sabotaging / slating the club and has been ever since he refused to move out of a hotel.

I remember when he did a Sky interview about his living arrangements, I cut him slack as his reasons made sense, but now it's coming home that he's been taking the money and the piss all along. I detest him, everything about him. He is poison.
 
Why does he continue to contradict himself constantly?

Are we 100% sure the quotes are accurate?

Surely he must realise that stuff like this makes fans angry. Or is that part of his cunning plan?

The man is a mystery.
 
Nothing new. His biggest achievement as United manager has been convincing everyone we're shit.
 
Shame the board can't take that as an admission that he can't get us top 4, then we could avoid that juicy payout. Are these quotes definitely not taken out of context? Wonder what his next expectation reduction is gonna be, he'll have us fighting for top half football if he keeps on like this.
 
Well, he's right :lol:

He has to shoulder the majority of the blame obviously but, he's right
Two games ago he was saying we'd be in the top 4 by the end of December. He's now thrown in the towel and needs to be put out of his misery.

In another two games he'll be saying it'll be an achievement to finish in the top half of the table.

Well that was 6 points ago, 6 points we didn't get
 
That's basically telling Woodward sack him now or give him 250m to spend in January.

Get rid of him Ed, or give me a few million and I'll tell you who to sign, I'll give you a better list than Mou!

Top 6 would be achievment.
 
It's not the "miracle' bit that's the most annoying. The bit about the squad, last season and our rivals if far more outrageous.
Us needing a miracle is just a matter of fact.
He talks as if he started managing this club yesterday. It's like he's blanked 3 years and €400m from his memory.

He's been doing that for fecking every game (pre and post-match interviews) since he bloody arrived.

You'd think he was hired by the club to be a pundit on our performances, rather than running the damn show.
 
He's sounding like Hodgson while at Liverpool.

He'd also be right if he said that unfortunately
 
He wants the sack - that's my opinion now.

Like the rest of us he's just waiting for Woodward to fecking do something.
It's been obvious for a while he wants out. Like someone wanting out of a relationship but no balls to follow through with it. It's the board now who's hurting the club, the man no longer can do the job and it's up to them.
 
The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist

He wants the sack doesn’t he?
