Could have won it-we got away with it.Lucky for us NewUtd didnt believe they could win this match otherwise we would be calling for heads. Shamefully, we didnt believe we could win it.

Fine margins-thats football.

I've got little sympathy for him - he's supposed to be 'one of the best managers in the world', but can't get us tactically organised to deal with the type of goals we concede over and over again.
Lets imagine for a moment we replace our back 4 with "world class defenders".. Pick any 4 you like. Do you think they would regress under Mourinho?

Ok, but I think you're choosing to ignore the players misgivings and focusing on the popular scapegoat which is Jose. His history proves he is a good manager and that is something nobody can provide a convincing argument against.
Historically yes, but I argue if he was a success at Man U. Also for me it's just I feel empty watching us now, so I really do feel strongly about it. Yes the players are contributing but that is ultimately down to Mourinho. And I'm not so much talking about the errors but I just don't see us improving, running through walls(paper would be nice).

I wish we'd show up for the second half of games.

Really hard to blame the defenders when we give up 22 shots - how is Newcastle allowed to get into those positions in the first place and FFS why isnt a midfielder running with the guy that equalized? Our players were just watching.

Its almost as if he isn't being paid £13 million a year to do something about it!

everytime I see this fact I get angrier and angrier. It’s on the cusp of gross negligence on DL’s part for me if it’s true that we don’t have a break clause. For someone who is such a hard nosed negotiator he got absolutely pantsed.

I had to bring you back to reality.
Im not sure what your reasoning was or what argument you were trying to make but that didn't really work? It was just a 'smart' arsed comment.

I'd make them work in the stadium brewery all week bottling beers and when they ask why I'd tell them it's because bottling is the only fucking thing I can trust them to do.
