Diggler, you doing x2 back and chest per week?

For what its worth I think Moyes is a decent choice. Although I think Jose is a great manager he'd never have fitted in at United with the owners - and I think he knew that and that's what he is really saying.

Also can't tell you how interesting and exciting it is hearing about Diggler's manly physique. Bit gay tho.

@kam,

Yeah, it is a bit gay that you find it both interesting and exciting. Whatever floats your boat I guess.

@Rock Steady,

Nope, 4 upper body workouts, 1 legs, 1 cardio. The legs was the toughest one, was walking like kam after a night out for the following 4 days...

I was being sarcastic about my interest. What I actually meant was a bit off topic. It is a football site after all old chap.

God I've missed Jose. Thought he'd leave the mind games until atleast August though.

@kam,

I know, I was just messing around.

Jose is great at mind games. Sadly for him they end up backfiring on him and his own players end up getting into bust ups with the guy.

Terry, Ronaldo, Casillas, Ramos etc. I wonder who the first person to fall out with Jose will be this time. I'm going for Hazard or Luis.

And city fans speak the truth.....god you talk some shittee long live the goat! And for the other Bertie's, moyes was many united fans pick including mine, the older supporters preferred moyes and were worried about Jose antics!

Yeah i guess you have to look at this another way, mourinhio has his weakness he has no backward gears, you can either love him or hate him. Wonder how he will get on with torres and hazard, hes bound to fall out with abro again. Hes ultra mercurial flirting with utd than saying he never wanted to come, hell say anything for effect.
Dont know how moyes responds to things like this, probably too solid to get involved in it

That's why I like moyes, he want say a thing knowing at present time uniteds team is much better. Moyes was a good choice as to get Everton in the top 6 most seasons on a budget of nowt is something else. Plus moyes plays a similar style of football to fergie, so not much will change. Anyway, I really don't care what others think as I'm pleased with moyes.......didn't city and Chelsea try and get moyes not so long ago??

The way I see it, it could explain a lot of the 'sucking up' in the Champions League fiasco.

Saying he knew months ago, when lets say he really didn't would really be pathetic and all it'd take is for Sir Alex to say "I didn't tell him, I don't see why he's using my retirement as a form of mind games, especially with the nature of my retirement".

Mourinho probably did know months a go, which could have resulted in his very humble interview at Old Trafford. I don't think he would have turned down the Man United job if Sir Alex personally handed it to him, but I'm sure Sir Alex had already had a lot of discussions with David Gill over the years of who he and the board thought would be the best candidate, which was David Moyes.

Jose is just being sycophantic, this is his way of currying chelsea fan's favour again.

posted on 16/6/13

Yeah did we really want all this bs at utd. Kinda makes you glad we did get moyes

posted on 16/6/13

Christ the fans are worse, just try and gave a decent conservation with them.....you just get insulted instead!

Not sure about Chelsea but no I don't ever remeber anything about an offer for moyes.

posted on 16/6/13

The fact of the matter is both Jose and Moyes are the same age. Compare their achievements and there is only one winner in this! Chelsea! Jose is a far, far better manager than Moyes. Him joining Utd reminds me of when we replaced Ronaldo with Valencia. We have not replaced quality with quality and in time it will show.

posted on 16/6/13

Fair enough loz, just got slaughtered off the Chelsea board for asking why moyes would get sacked soon! So cheers loz for an adult reply rather than insults from kids

OOF

You can't compare players to managers. Completely different thing.

Jose is a better manager than Moyes

posted on 16/6/13

Jose is a better manager but moyes is very good. Christ I went through the 70s and 80s, so being champions and having a cracking side with a good manager will do me!! Maybe it would be good for some of the idiot fans that we didn't win for a little while.....just want to see some better football and no giggs in midfield!

posted on 16/6/13

OOF

Impossible to quantify. Until they've both been given the same opportunities you can't say that.

Look at formula one. Put a decent driver in a red bull or a ferrari car and they'll probably drive faster and better than if they were in a lesser car. Put Vettel in a Force India and he'll struggle. Put Jose at Everton and who knows how he would have done.
