Br cheats locally, outside all CBF does is sell themselves to profit from bribery. The ones who cheat the entire planet are the ones hosting the FIFA center. As for "BR racism", perhaps I misjudged the term but it was still (unmoderated, especially until I answered) a derogatory generalization of my country. And arent you from Pakistan, hows it much different than being calling a p***? Still both ad hominem, with you provoking it in the 1st place. + Show Spoiler + I would refrain from taking issue with ad hominem, you literally have them every other sentence. If you do believe that those references are ad hominems 90 percent of your posting is pretty worthless the remaining 10 percent is conspiratorial rubbish If you dont know the difference between the terms or their usage then I would refrain from using them :p. Racism is bad, racism born of ignorance is worse. You dont need me to explain it to you, just use google. Brazil still bad at football, thats why all the good players leave for Europe. The only alternative reason for them leaving is Money? So Brazillian footballers so honor less that they are willing to play against cheaters just to get more money? On the reason I actually came here, Ive been having alot of Mou press conferences and quotes since the Seville game that are less than savoury to the club itself. And then ofcourse the internet went wild and started quoting stuff that contradicted what he was saying now to his comments in the past. Seems rather lame to deflect on your club when your approach is questioned. Its a pretty shitty tactic if im honest. All he could say to defend himself was look where we were look where we are, we arent where we want to be, we are working on it, lets move on. Instead its all this meandering mono logging about heritage and this and that. | ||

Instead its all this meandering mono logging about heritage and this and that. I think we lost Mou a few years ago. He did win the league with Chelsea but he was already gone in his mind after his stint at Madrid. He was always playing the victim and it was fun to watch but at Madrid he when too far, and now no one is entertained anymore. Every press conference is ridiculous, his thing with Conte was stupid, even more so when they're (both) that far from winning the league. I don't understand if ManU keeps him for the next season. I'm already surprised they signed him, knowing how he plays his teams. I'm also surprised they didn't fire him after what he said post Sevilla game. The richest club on earth deserves better. | ||

I may be wrong, but he seems like a great manager and could get the best out of that squad. | ||

"I am not going to run away or disappear or to cry because I heard a few boos, I'm not going to disappear from the tunnel, running immediately, the next match I will be the first to go out. I am not afraid of my responsibilities," said Mourinho. "In the last seven years the worst position of Manchester City in the Premier League was fourth, in the last seven years Manchester City was champions twice and if you want to say three times, they were second twice. "That's heritage. Do you know what is also heritage? Is that Nicolas Otamendi, Kevin De Bruyne, Fernandinho, David Silva, Raheem Sterling, Sergio Aguero, they are investments from the past, not from the last two years, do you know how many of United players that left the club last season? See where they play, how they play, if they play. Glorious Mourinho rants :D | ||

"It would be easy and pragmatic to point at the last three years. But I am not good at that aspect. I want to be more aggressive, we want to win titles. "I have to prove things to myself, not to others. That's my nature. I would never be able to work without success. I always ask things of myself and of others, that’s in my nature. "I could be defensive and point at our results in the past three years, but I cannot do that. "When people have had a certain menu for years, you must improve the menu if you want to change it. Success has been normal at Man United. We want to forget about the last three years. The players must not think about doing better and finishing fourth, that is not the aim." Yesterday "Out in the group phase in 2013 out at Old Trafford in the last 16, I was on the other bench. In 2014, out in the Quarter Final. In 2015, no European football. In 2016, comes back to European football, out in the group phase, goes to Europa League and on the second knockout out of the Europa League. In 2017, play Europa League, win Europa League with me and goes back to CL." Also nicely summarized by a United fan on reddit: "Attacked for longer in his press conference than in 180 minutes vs Sevilla" And as a bonus Mourinho: 'We went out to a side that's more successful than Manchester United in last seven years in Europe... In Sevilla, there are many players who would play in my team.' "Mourinho is not an asshole he is a genius trying to deflect blame from his players and motivate them" | ||

Things like; Glorious Mourinho rants :D Tbh United fans are kinda expecting being top tier lvl1 champions league winner material in 1 fucking season. They have been in the dumpster and are finally taking their head of the hole they were post SAF, of course the road will be bumpy and you'll fail from time to time, but what can you really do 🤷🏻♂️ I mean, this United is far better than Van Gaal's (not even going to count Moyes) | ||

Yeah. He seems like he knows what's he doing and his team plays nice football. I am not an expert since I haven't managed to watch a lot of games, but from what i've seen he seems like a good manager. | ||

There's nothing inconsistent here - even though Valencia and Real Madrid are pretty much neck to neck the current season of la liga, there's nothing weird about Valencia supporters being more happy about their performance than real madrid supporters are.. I am talking about 10 years ago and not the fans but neutrals. For neutrals where is the difference between Wenger 10 years ago and spurs manager now? One won titles and was called a loser for top4. The other won nothing is called a good manager | ||

England is so weird haha Totenham was a midtable team that didn't qualified for CL before Pochetino. You can't compare it to Arsenal... Simeone is a looser, he only won La Liga once this 6 years  | ||
