United was humiliated last night. The score does a massive disservice to Tottenham. Should've been 5 or 6 nil. That must be embarrassing for Mourniho and the players.
And that's why people shit on Mourinho more than Guardiola, among other things. Yeah it's nice and all to beat fodder teams like West Brom, Crystal Palace etc. 4-0 and playing attacking football, and another thing is to see a team constructed with a truckload of money serve this kind of crap against the top. Real Madrid sacked him for tactics like these but United gave him an extension until 2022. Hilarious
Yersterday Tottenham was so much better. All that United did was over Alexis but without any real danger. On the other side Tottenham had so much real chances... It was funny to see. But I don't like Tottenham to, so it was like watching who will "drop" first...

Not that much better. Just did well to defend what score they earned after half hour of play. Same old story when it comes to showing decisive edge (which they do not have). Only managed it against Liverpool as far as I remember.

True. Mourinho also has a pretty shit record against pretty much anybody from the top 6 and they're still above Spurs. So not only Spurs need to keep at it, but they may not be so fortunate as to get 2 goals like that against other lot. Are they better than United? Muh, in that one game yes, or managed it better. Overall? Not so convinced.

And people were saying he does a good defensive job against the top teams. It’s not that at all, Utd just get outplayed.

that's frankly abysmal for both United as a club and Mourinho as (supposedly) an elite coach

That's the thing. Let's say United had a worse team than both Chelsea and City when he arrived. You can argue either way but the difference between their squads, quality wise, was not that big. Now here comes Mourinho, supposedly the best manager around, spends a lot(something like 300-350 million) and his team plays some of the most mind-blowingly weak shit, against the other top teams, you have ever seen. Isn't he the best manager in the world? Even if the others spent more, shouldn't he make the difference since Conte or Guardiola are frauds and he is the next coming of the christ?
Anyway, good news that he has to stay 4 more years after this one. All the fans of the other teams can rejoice.

Good news would be him pissing off to a national team so we only have to hear from him every 2-4 years

After the United gig, most likely. Let's see how much time until his usual meltdown. Can't be more than 2 years imo.

Tbf when he arrived our only world class player was a goal keeper. Our next best player was a 19 year old Martial.
Our squad had a few talented youngsters, Valencia and De gea but overall was absolutely shocking for a team of United stature.
City had KDB, Aguero , Silva, Sterling, Fernandinho etc Chelsea had Hazard, Costa, Cesc, Courtois, Willian, Pedro we were absolutely miles behind it was horrible.
He has spent a lot and now thankfully we have some good player at United but the catch up job was quite ridiculous at the time. Gross miss negligence from the board to let things get that bad.

Some reports in the UK the BT are set to ditch the football TV rights and SKY looking to cut back on it.
Be decent if the money in EPL slowed down for once.
Coming from the Mail so to be taken with pinch of salt.
