£300m is " not enough "...

Post by Clarets4me » Wed Dec 27, 2017 2:16 am

Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho/Moronino/Moanihno, depending on your view, is bemoaning the fact that he has only spent £300m in the transfer market in the 19 months since he has been manager of Surrey's favourite team...
Before we start rattling the Collection buckets at Turf Moor, it should be noted that £75m of this was spent on Lukaku, whom Utd fans are referring to as the modern day " Emile Heskey ", and £95m on Paul Pogba, who'd grown up at United in their Youth set up, and who left in 2012, on a free transfer.

A " Back of a Fag packet " calculation, based on estimates of " undisclosed fees " etc... reveals that the entire 18 members of Burnley's match day Squad at Old Trafford yesterday, cost in the region of £53-55m...

In Dyche we Trust !!!

He always creates a diversion when things dont go well.The press will be all over this...the other week he created a row about City celebrating after they outplayed Utd. When we got the result at Chelsea he took over Soccer Sunday to ensure his grievances were heard. Always an excuse. He's wearysome. Im beginning to think hes a fraud tbh.

£300m is not enough to beat us reflects rather badly on him and his team collectively.

"[Spending £300m] is not enough. The price for the big clubs is different than for the other clubs. The big historical clubs are normally punished in the market because of that history," he said.....
He responded: "When you tell a club like Man Utd, do you think Milan is not as big as us? You think Real Madrid are not as big as we are?"

Somebody needs to tell him that teeny weeny Burnley were more than than big enough for him today. Who's the big man now?

Standard Mourinho, deflecting attention on to himself instead of his players. Simple to see through for those with enough nous.

Papers love it because he gets a headline, he loves it because his players underperformance isn’t mentioned and those of a ‘talksport’ Nature get riled up and click loads of internet links / phone in radio shows to vent how wrong he is.

Pantomime villainy at its finest.

As for he’s a fraud, with league titles in four different countries and two different champions league winning teams that’s one hell of a fraud...

At least Jose is being honest and admitting that both he and Manchester United need to BUY SUCCESS and not try and build a team and squad like Sean Dyche at Burnley.

That chump seemingly has an infinite supply of 'run away from the job' seeds. Yet another has been planted. He's not crop rotating and it's beginning to show.

Struggling to cope with being outclassed by Guardiola.
His ego just cannot handle it.

Success for Mourinho is winning the league, success for Dyche is coming 17th. Thats why Jose needs more than £300m and why we can get away with signing players like Jon Walters and Nahki Wells

Mourinho used to be entertaining but he is just becoming a sour poor loser who is losing his appeal a bit like Wenger.

Absolute rubbish. Success for Dyche is improving on last season. And why knock Walters and Wells? Fat lot of good did Pogba and Ibra do for United yesterday.

Success for Burnley is to improve on and off the pitch, year on year, whilst retaining our grounded mindset based on hard work and comradeship, added to increasing skill and self improvement, to play a part in a greater collective.

One day that reaches the top.

Totally different goals. And I love to knock Jose cos hrs a twuntery but every manager going for league and CL wins says the same.

They need 2 full teams of world class superstars who come at a cost of 50-100m each and earn 5-10m a year... We dont

Just to keep things in perspective, Benitez in the paper today is quoted as saying that if the board give him the money to survive this season, he can make Newcastle into a top 8 side and that is where they should be.

Given who is currently above and below us in the pyramid, the more remarkable is our current league position and acheivement, especially on the money and relatively small fanbase and ground facilities.

There is Villareal in Spain who have as a small club gone a bit further and Leverkusen maybe in Germany but I think they are bankrolled by big money.

Don't forget that David Moyes I think won Manager of the Year for consistently guiding Everton to 7th.
