Rumour has it that someone from the inside contributed information for this article highlighting how Mourinho's criticism is much worse than SAF's was... and all signs are indicating that it was someone from Rooney's camp...

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/football...nager-jose-mourinhos-criticism-of-players-na/

Gary Neville even retweeted it and said something along the lines of he can tell an article that has some legitimacy to it. The damn wheels are already starting to fall of the bus.
 
ehhh i wouldn't go that far.. one player being unhappy is far from turmoil especially if said player is no where near our best anymore. Like Neville said, its been one week.. press LOVE to exaggerate when it comes to United.. one week we are gonna win the league, the next jose is in danger of losing the locker room. Media is as fickle as the fans. My issue with players like this is.. you're making a ton of money and you're underperforming and you get mad at your boss for calling you out about it? Modern day footballers are vaginas man.. no heart, no grit..
 
Wheels falling off the bus?

No.

Rooney on his way to riding the pine? Yes.

Everyone will benefit from him being on the bench, including himself.

What amazed me when I watched against Watford, is the lack of pressing. In fact, pressing has pretty much NOTHING to do with tactics, or formation. Just closing down your man, chasing down the ball. I didn't see enough of that aggression at all. :smh: But dudes want to cry when Mou calls them out.
 
Damn Yaya and Pep's beef just will never die :lol:

Hope he comes to LA Galaxy next season :nerd:
 
What a collapse from us last night **** me.

Wasyl ****** us over big time with the sending off and the goal before HT put Chelsea right back in it.

Fabregas was class, Hazard is a joke when he's on it. And Jeff Schlupp has a premier league winners medal :lol:

Agreed 100% with both of you,dudes would crumble under Fergie since it was either his way or the highway. People forget how fiery the mans temper could get. The hairdryer treatment or getting chin checked would cause nervous breakdowns for some of these players if they're already ***** in after one bad week here :lol: :smh:. Dudes have been babied too much over the last few seasons,the managers have been getting their *** kicked in the press yet if the same thing keeps happening with different managers,somethings up with the players.

On another note,all the people fake outraged at Mou for daring to criticise Shaw,I bet they had nothing to say when LVG basically publicly called him a fat *** before his first season and kept him out of the squad until he got in shape. Dude is a grown man being paid millions,he can handle occasional criticism. That kind of tough love is what's helped him become the player that he is today.

If these players can't handle any adversity and are gonna try to undermine Mou at the slightest sign of things not going well,I'll fully back another summer clear out after the season. Need everyone on the same page since the board is still backing Mou long term

This Chelsea squad is quite flawed and I'm amazed they pulled off the win against Leicester. Any squad with speed for days will wash us more often than not, if Claudio went with a Musa/Vardy/Mahrez centric attack it would've been over.

Cesc has to start. We suck defensively regardless so might as well have him out there to at least make the offense flow.

When that January transfer window hits they have to get another CB. They don't need to be world class, just good enough with some room to develop.

I think some people need to go.
 
They need someone to partner with Zouma

Terry is leaving and Cahil isn't competent enough without Terry carrying him. They need someone who can survive no matter who's out there with him

They also need a strong midfielder. Try to pick someone up in Italy who can play the way Conte wants. Try to go for Nainggolan again or someone. Anyone.

Moses looked much better out there than Willian. They should rotate him in much more this season
 
ESPNFC talking about De Bruyne's at the table with Messi, Ronaldo, Neymar :smh: :lol:


I'm not a huge Barcelona guy, but c'mon man. The koolaid's run dry.


Aguero isn't Suarez, De Bruyne isn't anyone. Stop making the comparisons.

I was listening to these guys too. Anything "ESPN" almost always ends in hyperbole. It's the butter for their bread. [emoji]128514[/emoji][emoji]128514[/emoji][emoji]128514[/emoji]

Yes, DeBruyne has played well the past FIVE games. But Messi and Ronaldo have been GOD Level for a decade. [emoji]128514[/emoji][emoji]128514[/emoji]

Just wish Aguero would be fully fit more often so we could see how far he could really go.

I still put him at the table with Suarez when he's fully fit.
