Are Man Utd facing mid table or even lower?
This is a serious question, and I'm not having a go at Man Utd. Last season, there was a good chance Chelsea were facing relegation. Mourhino does not seem to get respect and control any more and seems to quickly alienate a section of the squad. It does seem to be a re run of last season. From an objective point of view, Pochettino or Koeman would have been much better bets for the Man Utd role.

I take it you didn't see his post match interview after Real Madrid knocked us out of the CL then ? Practically grovelling for the job he was.
We've played only 5 games, there are still 33 to go and they will click in to gear.
They may have had 3 losses in a row, but against City they were just beaten by a better team/manager, midweek they wont really care about, so it is only really the result yesterday that may raise an alarm.
Still very early days with his new club, but he definitely seems to be making the mistake of trying to fit too many square pegs in round holes at the moment.
How do you know that the Man Utd squad don't respect him or that he has alienated them?
Its pretty bad to single someone out after so few games. If he was that bad jose, why not take him off?
I've just been reading that Shaw is undergoing scans on possible groin problem.
Still relatively early days but the signs aren't great if your a United fan.
Are you talking about the Europa League, when you say that we wouldn't really care about the defeat in Holland??
Yeah the Europa League
yeah, he hasn't even got the hunger to prpoperly whinge like a little cry baby anymore:p, say what you like about Fergie but his paranoia that the whole world was against him and his team lasted forever, Mourinho has probably earned too much money, far too soon :cool:
Arsenal will do what Arsenal always do.
If Liverpool can become consistent they will be top four.
The other place will be between Spurs, Chelsea, Utd and maybe Everton an outside chance of top four.
So, I see UTD finishing no worse than 7th.
Yep... Its why they didn't go for him years ago... He's also not a man to knuckle down when things aren't going right
No they went for David Bleedin Moyes instead.
...that Jose doesn't alienate too many players and the one he does is called Wayne. United need a balanced, dynamic team.
A bit early for that kind of prediction yet.
Pogba's 23, at that age both Bale and Ronaldo were almost single-handedly winning games for their respective teams plus they were both incredible at scoring goals.
I just don't see Pogba ever reaching that level.
Why would we not be bothered about being defeated in that competition?
Any defeat is a poor result for us, so I don't see that as a result that we can or should just write off.
I wouldn't go as far as to say he was the main reason, he made a decent sized contribution.
5th would be a very poor season.
Pogba is top class if he can find his mojo and is managed well.
I dont know about that Mikta... guy.... Mourniho is actually going to have to do some work on the coaching ground to get this team challenging at the very top where they expected him to take them.
It is early days yet and, while I think the team is too weak mentally to win the league, the sheer strength of the squad, coupled with the fact Jose is still a good manager, mean that I expect us to finish top four.
