I know a lot of people think that Jose would not be a good manager for Utd as his teams are defensive an play boring football. Well that may be true for spoilt Madrid fans(Zidane/Figo/Laudrup and co) but based on last night's match, i think his philosophy would work a treat for us.
He dropped players like Modric and Ozil and played 3 CM's(no ACM's) with all attacking responsibility on the wingers(wide strikers) and the strikers along with dynamic fullbacks(except Arbeloa). A bit like us when we play with 2 CM's but no ACM's.
At Utd too, the creativity/chances have more often than not, come from flanks with midfield feeding the wings and the second striker.
Jose is a reactive coach who picks his team/style based on the opposition like SAF. This opposed to purists like Wenger/Pep who are more proactive and believe in their phiolosophy to an obsessive limit which is fine if u have Messi/Iniesta but not otherwise.
I saw a lot of Man Utd in the way Madrid played last night(especially the late goals).
I think Jose would be a perfect successor for SAF!!!!
Thoughts!!!

I couldn't take his crap anymore, the amount of cack he wrote just wound me up and I know it's pathetic but the guy is a donkey. I see he only posts after 3pm as well, not surprised if he's a greasy child

Hafi is alright. He winds up City fans and that is fine by me.
PS
Occasionally, amidst the heap of nonsense, you can find some gems. His stats are not-half bad too

I have been saying it for years since he went straight in as reserve team manager:
Man Uniteds next manager will be Ole Gunnar Solskjaer
