Smalling had picked up a knock but stayed on the pitch because Mou had already used all three substitutions.

Phil Jones took it upon himself to reorganise the team, telling Lindelof to move to CB from RB...

According to Phil Neville on commentary, Jones asked Herrera to fill in at right-back but was snubbed by the Spaniard.

Gary Neville:-- "Ander Herrera refused to go to right-back and told Henrik Mkhitaryan to go back there. You can't believe the disorganisation and lack of leadership shown by Manchester United at the end of that game in a game they should have won."

Oboi Mourinho vex o. grin

I like this...

The next two interviews that are coming are along the lines of:

1. I feel my work is betrayed,”. “I worked four days in training for this match. I identified four movements where Leicester score a lot of their goals and in two of the four situations I identified they scored their goals. I went through it all with the players, you can ask them.”


And 2: " i have nothing to say" × 5




Looooove it grin

If Guardiola didnt come to the EPL, we will be talking about Mourinho and his second season.

Maybe if Guardiola had started coaching in 2000 and followed Mourinho to all the leagues he went, Mourinho might be the new Benitez coaching Newcastle now or in China like AVB

What kind of injury would not allow someone to even move one yard? Are these guys not lazy sef? I have a feeling that Phil Jones would have defended that ball with his last breath and ready to go for 3 months injury.

How many times do street footballers or amateur footballers get these yeye injuries in Nigeria? Except old men returning to football.
On point, Smalling is just a sissy, look at Wilshere who was fond of forming injury until Wenger toughened up and was about to send him out of the club to just about any team, isn't Wilshere playing his heart now? Smalling is mentally weak and lazy like most English players, I mean just stretch yourself for about 2 min but no, the dude was out of the pitch at one point...
I was so upset yesterday, how do you play in a very good pitch with proper officiating and still get injured at every slight instance when people play in erosion ravaged pitch here where two footed tackle is the norm and the only way your folks will liken you to Maldini/Nesta (Wonder where they saw Maldini and Nesta going in two footed, lol) and never get injured...

I heard the commentary during the match, but being that i have criticized Herrera too much on this forum I just chose to desist from saying it. Herrera is a very useless player, whenever he plays, he is a liability to the team, Mourinho should just get rid of these mercenaries quickly, Mourinho seem to have gotten soft since he came to united, deal with these lazy guys stealing a living in our team once and for all
If not for Mou's conservative approach, Herrera shouldn't have been on the pitch in the first place, his combination with Matic and Pogba doesn't work at all talk less of a match where we were comfortable dominating the midfield...

All I keep reading is SELL,BUY blah blah blah what happened to player development.?

Who would have foreseen Sterling of all pple hitting double digits within first half of the season, I put it to you Sterling wouldn’t play like he’s doing currently under MOU perhaps we would be hearin how average he is and why he should be SOLD too.

Why don’t players improve under Mou? other than buying ready made and setting them up to defend.CR7 had one of his worst performances under MOU, if he had continued under MOU he wouldn’t have smelt the World best award this much.

Give Mou PSG and watch him convert Neymar and Mbappe to LB and RB respectively while hoofing the ball to lonely Cavani upfront.

That’s the sad reality.

"The decision to make pogba captain is that in the Champions League we made him captain a couple of times when Valencia was not playing and people like Zlatan and Smalling were not playing. And today we felt that it could be an extra motivation for him and that's it, no special decision.


Probably the fact that he's a young guy and made in the club academy, and will have many, many years to play in the club and has conditions to be captain in the future, it's just that."


Jose mourinho....







He deserves to be captain abeg!

Let's not make claim of what we don't know. No one knows the extent of the injury. The point is with injury he shouldn't be inside our box. We had other tall players that should have helped since the team chose to be defending against a 10-man Leicester.

That was in the last few minutes when Leicester decided they had nothing to lose but to go all out to get the equalizer or lose 1-3. At that point we had more to lose, they didn't see any difference between losing 2-1 or 3-1. Perhaps, Mourinho anticipated it, and wanted to punish them with pace - Rashford and Mkhitaryan.
This is a flimsy excuse. At this period, the team was losing possession at little or no pressure whenever they go forward. Why can't this team string 4-5 passes without losing it

Yesterday's game is just further evidence why we won't win the league because we don't have players in the team who have that killer instinct ..The likes of Rashford, Lingard, Martial, they have great qualities but they don't have the killer instinct and I'm not sure they ever will have it.
Rashford's immaturity really showed. Should've shot and tried to round the keeper. Should've played Lukaku through yet held the ball, killing the attack. He can never become a world class player if he plays like this.
As for herrera, I hope he gets sold ASAP..

Yes Rashford and Martial were wasteful and have been talked about. But how about the continued serving of dross we get from old men like mkhitaryan Herrera and Damian. The boys you mentioned has flaws but just like other youngsters will improve. My grouse is with the useless and spineless old men

Smalling should be pushing himself they, I have seen Rooney play through pain for the love of the club and his winning mentality. You're right that he should have been sent up the pitch, Matic should prolly have covered for him but since it didn't happen, he should and could have stretched himself to the limit there.

Yes mourinho was conservative, but that was not entirely the reason for the draw. Herrera is not a small boy, and he earns wages, when the manager puts you there put in a shift. Let's reduce slating mou needlessly

Very correct but I will make a case for smalling, sometimes you are injured and can't even stand well not to talk of playing on, so I won't blame him as I don't know the extent of his injury, Rashford is still a youngster sha. Others are just stealing a living.

I cant believe am about to say this but Afroman z been better than Herrera by a mile and half this season and i cant help but feel that if we had him around, we would have seen this game off comfortably.

Afrodoc, wassup with Afroman? When is he returning to the side?

No, the buck stops with the manager. He's responsible for the performance and the make-up of the squad. He has spent a fortune so he has no excuses.
