Mr Popodopolous Posted May 24, 2017 Report Share Posted May 24, 2017 Well they won so they deserve credit there. But my god how tedious. How very tedious- I saw from 37 mins in and long balls, blanket defence, some impressive counter attacks but my god all that money and how shit to watch. Ajax in their way were little better to watch- I like possession football in general but they were so so slow in possession. Little movement either- now they are young and will grow, first time at this level for any of them. United though with money and experience- you would expect somewhat more.

He's a football manager, he's won two proper trophies this season, why shouldn't he celebrate?! Good grief, people on here wet themselves when we won the Johnstone's Paint Trophy and proudly lauded a 'double winning' season - yet Mourinho can't celebrate a European Trophy win against a club that has produced Neeskens, Cruyff, Bergkamp, Overmars, Gullit, Rikjaard etc etc?! Is no-one allowed to show passion and delight anymore over a genuine achievement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBW Posted May 24, 2017 Report Share Posted May 24, 2017 United's season didn't really get going but they've managed to win three of a possible five trophies and gain a Champions League spot. Spin it however you like but technically they've had a better year than all English clubs but Chelsea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before the CL place was given to the winner, the competition was literally seen as shit across Europe, and a hinderance to teams, now its viewed as a meaningful competition with a meaningful reward.

It wasn't seen as 'shit' when it was the UEFA Cup...it was a prestigious competition seen by all teams as a meaningful trophy to win... I know why it was exists, but the woefully mis-named Champions League is the one that has been totally devalued for me purely from a football and not financial viewpoint...it was so prestigious when it was only competed for by the one best team in each country....a genuine champions European Cup, just a glorified league now that means nothing to me...

I read somewhere getting in the Champions League this season would save United something like £50m. Fair play to them and Mourinho. He managed the final perfectly. As others have said it's a major boost for the city after recent happenings. I'm happy for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man Utd had one decent passing attack in the second half which ended when Pogba (I think) let an Ajax player catch him in the box in a very half hearted attempt to win a pen. Also I remember Rashford managed to put a Joe Bryan like cross into the crowd. Apart from the the only thing of note was that most of the Ajax players would walk into our U23 squad.

Esmond Million's Bung Posted May 25, 2017 Report Share Posted May 25, 2017 Mourinho was won 12 out of 14 cup finals and a total of 25 trophies in his managerial career and is probably the best manager in the world for setting up teams for one off games. Boring? probably, successful? definitely. 'Finals are not for playing, they are for winning' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
