re: Mourinho set to be the next manager of Manchester United....per Sky Sports

Lol, that's great coming from a QSG and Newcastle fan. Don't need you to worry about our club ethos

Lol he is the complete opposite of their entire club ethos. Manchester United is dead.

You are unbelievable.

There aren't really any great long-term options available right now. Why wouldn't United hire a proven winner for a few years until there is someone who fits the club's profile a little better?

Sure, I think the game is changing where the biggest clubs aren't going to be relying on youth as heavily as we saw in the past. United will probably never have another Class of 92, but I think I can bank on them normally having at least a couple academy grads in their squad.

Acting like United's valuation of youth is dead is ridiculous. A United academy grad scored a world class winner in a cup final today

United's academy pumped out players before Ferguson. It's produced several solid ones in the few years he's been gone. Mourinho will not give many chances, but 2.5 years isn't going to kill the club's entire legacy. (*Nigel Pearson voice*) If you think that, you are an ostrich.

ETA: You actually made me defend Manchester United. Congrats on reaching a new level of insufferable posting.
