Congrats to United, Juventus and Bayern 
I don't see it lol
I met him while on international duty. He's pure class off the pitch too. He's not that tall, but that's the majority of pro footballers.

Seeing English NT training videos since they started getting together at Colney & I gotta say Barkley is a fukking (pause) physical beast & Forster is a fukking monster between the sticks (who should be your NT starter, no offense to Hart, who proved my low opinion of him wrong the last 2 seasons.......but Forster is the better keeper ESPECIALLY FOR THE INTERNATIONAL GAME, simple as 
imo, Arsenal should've bought him instead of Cech.......before the Online Arsenal M-O-B jump up screaming, sorry....... NO Cech was NOT the difference maker any deluded wenger-lover would like you to believe. Forster all day for me)

Jose coming in three years too late for me. Should have come in straight after Fergie but better late than never

Jose would've been PERFECT for your lot the minute Fergie left, WHILE (<--keyword) grooming a(n) (unknown) successor behind the scenes.....Jose could've kept the team up at the top while winning at least 2 trophies in his usual 3-year stint to keep the fan base happy with silverware (bc that's just what he does
)............ while grooming someone like Giggs/Moyes/etc.....UNDER Mourinho & Fergie ("under" or "out of the spotlight" is the main objective/term here) to make that transition phase so much easier. Basic point is that I would have done a lot differently than United did starting from the last 2 years of Fergie's reign to have them in a better position now.......it's ALL about seamless transition nowadays, not starting from scratch

At this point, I'm all in for Jose.
Firstly Congrats to the team. LvG. Clap for 'em. but please, The door is that way.
I didnt initially buy into Jose but the reality is, we absolutely need him more than he even needs us right now.
We need to be a big deal again. With Pep coming to City, Klopp at 'pool. Ranieri's champs and Poch's spurs and Wenger's Arsenal. We cannot afford to be alsorans anymore.
We need to still be respected. Teams dont respect us anymore. They will respect us with Jose and also Jose makes us more attractive again to players and in the world stage. I have my fears about how he handles youth of course and he is just as likely to leave a dressing room in complete carnage but its either that or be Liverpool for the next 20 years. No thanks.

You're 100% correct. SAF killed us because there was no succession plan in place. Jose was the perfect person but Fergie decided to give it to his mate. That alone cost us 2 years.
you think mata will even get a chance? he didnt give him one at chelseaJose coming in three years too late for me. Should have come in straight after Fergie but better late than never
