Zlatan Ibrahimvic is fucking crap

[Captain]

They've been fucking dogshit since Ferguson left.

The question is, will that continue next season?

[SlugTrail]

We'll find out if Mourinho is on a downward trajectory, or if last season was a blip.

 

Unfortunately Man Utd have the resources to continually buy their way out of trouble. If they combine that with the right manager, they will be challenging for the title. I guess we're about to find out if they have the right manager. Here's hoping...

 

As for us, we definitely have the right manager. We're not paupers but we're not as rich as they are either, so for us it might need a bit longer to build up again. However, I honestly don't think we are all that far off, and with a fair wind next season we can challenge too.

 

I hope Zlatan's ego is off the charts, and Mourinho's too. Let them clash. Let the fallout infest the club. Let some of their younger players tire of Zlatan's ego. I hope they spend loads and it falls apart again.

i think we all hope that Rev, but remember this is not the first time they have worked together, they both know what to expect.

Mourinho is still one of the best managers in world football. Deal with it.

Never heard of the cunt.

[Mark M]

Mourinho and loads of money usually means trophies. unfortunately for us and everyone else in the league.

Yeah, I find it bizarre some seem confident they'll continue to be shit next season.

[Mook]

To be honest, they might piss the league next season or they might finish mid-table but I'm not going to spend my summer worrying about the fucking twats and I doubt Jurgen Klopp will either.

 

Let them, their geriatric new striker and their horrible little cunt of a manager worry about Liverpool, the team that dumped them out of Europe a couple of months back.

 

[Joey8FrogsLegs]

Mourinho & Zlatan will never work, massive egos on the pair of them. That's why their last spell together was a massive failure. Because egos. Herp. Derrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrpppp.

 

 

 

 

*eye twitch*

 

 

Ah yes, the "I'll bury my head in the sand, stick both thumbs my arse & wish for the best" approach, otherwise known as the JP special. I knew the moment Leicester won it last year that we'd have plebs using the "bbbut Leicester" defence whenever anyone mentioned the correlation between spending big & winning big. Because you know, the fact that the wealthiest clubs in the big leagues have hoovered up the biggest prizes consistently over the past 20-30 years is completely irrelevant now that plucky little Leicester have won the league.

 

 

Few things would give me as much joy as seeing them implode next season, I wish i could share the optimism some on here have about Zlatan & Mourinho being busted flushes, about their massive egos clashing etc, unfortunately all I see is the Mancs recruiting proven winners. Time will tell I suppose, fingers crossed that you lot are right & that I'm proven to be a hopelessly cynical, know nothing fucknugget, not like it'd be the first time it's happened.

Being in the revenue top 10 clubs globally,

we should be fine then.

Yep, despite Moyes taking over some of our fans were saying they'd still do well, many of us said he'd be shit and he was. I remember being laughed at when I said LVG would flop, but he did. Some of our fans seem to think that they are going to be fine just because they chuck millions about. Mourinho may get them better results but they'll still win fuck all as others also strengthen, they'll be spending shit loads to watch defensive football with fuck all to show for it imo. You can bet your arse that in 2 years time Giggs will be back there as manager and they'll have spunked over a billion pounds between Taggart leaving and Giggs getting the full time job, and all that for one F.A Cup.

[Grinch]

76 million in shirt sales in one week.

[Fugitive]

He's still fucking shite, the bellend.

[johnsusername]

I never realised how big he is.

[Ne Moe Imya]

He wasn't shite when this thread was started but he's not far off now.  Still has a brilliant first touch and the ability to contort his body into weird positions to lay a ball off that you wouldn't expect, but the pace is gone and that takes away half his game.

[Josef Svejk]

He's the least intimidating star striker you could ever face. Very talented, obviously. Might produce a moment of magic. But, as a Liverpool and Ireland fan who's seen him plenty of times, he'd be far down my list of opponents to worry about...

His 50 odd goals in his last 40 league games suggest otherwise.

[Jairzinho]

They could have had a prime Ronaldo upfront and it wouldn't have made any difference. They played for 0-0.

I don't care what he does against teams I don't support. I don't fear him. Not to the degree I'd expect of one of the biggest stars in world football.

[RobbieOR]

Looks like he can't run anymore. 

[Joey8FrogsLegs]

Happy to see them play him and not Rashford up front tonight.

[stringvest]

Looks like he can't run anymore. 

 

 

I thought he did a lot of work for them actually.

[TheHowieLama]

I would have him here in a heartbeat.

[AngryOfTuebrook]

They would have done better with Jon Walters up front tonight.

 

His one clear chance and he tried to do something fancy with it.  A proper yard-dog - suited to Mourinho's gameplan - would have just shut his eyes, planted his fod through the ball and scored.

[RobbieOR]

I thought he did a lot of work for them actually.

 

Holding the ball up yeah but if the ball is either side of him he isn't mobile enough to get it anymore.

[AngryOfTuebrook]

I would have him here in a heartbeat.

That sentence only makes sense if you are in a Cambodian sex dungeon.

[Torvald Utne]

That sentence only makes sense if you are in a Cambodian sex dungeon.

I would get myself there in a heartbeat

 

Errrm not with ibrahimovic. I feel I need to make that clear.
