Jose Mourinho has found a way to make things even worse for Bastian Schweinsteiger | JOE.co.uk
What the fuck is up with this idiot?

He's a narcisstic egomaniac and that will be his downfall. When you treat players like this, others will notice.
A manager like him can only be popular when he's winning. The knives will be out for him soon enough, regardless of this story - although symptomatic enough.

Seems like he's desperate to get Schweinsteiger to leave and has been for some time. What I find weird is the fact that Schweinsteger stayed. Surely there are plenty of teams out there (CL-level clubs) who would gladly sign him. So are his wages just obscenely high (so no other club would match them)? Does he really love the weather in Manchester? I just don't get it.
It's a stupidly obvious reference to make, but Squires knocks it out the park with the Mourinho / Partridge comparisons this week:
David Squires on … José Mourinho's Manchester hotel woes

err perhaps this is why he was barred from playing for the U23s?
Bastian Schweinsteiger: Man Utd midfielder returns to first-team training
The way Jose has treated Schweinsteiger isn't great, but looks like he's doing whatever possible to get back in favour with the squad?
Why wouldn't you? The way things are going Jose could be gone in a few months time.
BFS? Big Fat Sam?
Yes
He specialises in keeping teams up but they will have to move fast before Sunderland get him
Oh, god, I would love that.
I think we should keep hoping & praying they stick with him. Once he's outed completely, you can bet your life that Poch's name will emerge. Do we really want the unsettling media circus that would surround the "Pochettino to United" story?
They wanted Mourinho, I reckon they will stick with him for a while. Otherwise they begin to look like a total farce. And we ought to know about the farces we've had with changing managers, periods of transition & the like... let sleeping dogs lie

He's like the pantomime villain that you've been watching for over ten years and are bored with now.
More like Widow Twankey these days.

Poch is being linked with the Madrid job now. Think we will have to get used to him being linked to top jobs as long as he's doing well with us.
If he went to Madrid, it would be a kick in the knackers. That's for sure. But rather that than to United or any other English club.
