This should convince everyone as to Mourinho's future in football.

United does have a great striker in Ibrahimovic, but the tactics require that a 35 year old striker spends most of their energy defending. Replacing LVG with a similarly pragmatic and negative manager was not what needed to be done.

There you go :D
Zlatan answers. Still one goal behind Aguero :D

In other news, Pogba was much more useless than Zlatan but is apparently is immune to criticism, and David Luiz was excellent throughout the game (except for his card) and is gathering zero accolades here.

What else is new?

United circles the ball, but has zero combination, zero movement and in the end, someone crosses. Defenses know they have to key on Ibra and rule the air and they'll win.
Creativity level is very close to zero.

All the latter had to do was get suspended for 3 games. Dare to Zlaten. :P

Kun will probably still end up winning it but this is hilarious to see.

I also can't figure out what role Pogba is supposed to be playing. And then Mkh doesn't play at all. No creativity and leaving one of the best creative attackers in the world on the bench...:help:

I hope they keep Mourinho forever.

Well part of the argument was that Aguero was going to miss games... so...

You find hilarious that I said Zlatan would score more than Aguero and yet after 10 games, he's one goal behind??? Seriously? :laugh:

But as I said, I think I underrated Mourinho's ability to stuff his own team offensively.

Just recovered from injury, not at 90 minute fitness. Might not be even close to it. Remember he got re-injured almost immediately the last time he returned.

Not for this reason...

AS usually you leap into assumptions based on little. I find it hilarious that you thought Ibra would FOR SURE win the scoring title without giving any thought to the competition. Kun was ONE of the names I mentioned that COULD win it.

So, after watching him all of last season and now the start of this one, I have a hard time not saying that N'Golo Kante isn't one of the best midfielders in the Premier League, and is fairly high on the list in the world. Guy is all over the pitch and rarely makes a mistake.

I did and I think Zlatan is a MUCH safer bet to score than Aguero since the latter always misses games.

And after 10 games, YOU leap to assumptions :D :nod:

So, far Ibra has missed more.

We'll see but at least it won't be close...the big nose giant will crush the EPL, or something.

That was pathetic. You just can't gift Chelsea two goals like that and expect to get anything out of the game.
