Hey guys ! Welcome back to another post of ours in which we cover yet another big news that has come out in the last few days . As you all may know from social media Jose Mourinho has accepted a 3 year deal to sign as the Manchester United manager after the sacking of Louis Van Gaal who was sacked the day before even though he won the F.A cup.Lets not get into that as that is a post on its own.For now lets talk about what this move does for the future of United and Jose.
His path so far :
He has managed a lot of clubs in his career and the big ones include Porto in which he won the champions league with(knocking out united on the way),Real madrid , Chelsea and many other clubs in which he has won all the trophies possible there is to win. He has a great record of winning trophies and his stats prove that . He surprised everyone with his management style and proved doubters wrong when they expected him to fail at many occasions.There has been news regarding how hard his training regimes are , his style of play which is considered defensive to grind out results and that sometimes leads to falling out with players and fans but as long as he wins trophies,we are sure united fans will back him.
Quick fact - Between 23 Feb 2002 and second April 2011 he went 150 home matches unbeaten,a streak which is applauded by many people and critics .
The Move to United :
Jose was sacked by Chelsea after failed to overturn their disastrous start to the season.He went on a vacation till the end of the season.The press speculated that he was waiting for the united job and that united officials had contacted him as early as January.He was finally appointed as the manager after the sacking of van gaal.He has signed a 3 year contract with a option for a 4 th year.
Announcing the appointment, Ed Woodward said:
"José is quite simply the best manager in the game today. He has won trophies and inspired players in countries across Europe and, of course, he knows the Premier League very well, having won three titles here.
"I’d like to take this opportunity to welcome him to Manchester United. His track record of success is ideal to take the club forward."
What the future holds :
United have slacked a little under Van Gaal and Mourinho will be expected to challenge for the title and to get them back into the champions league,winning them Europa league or the F.A cup will be a added bonus for him . He has usually employed some defensive style of play to get results and that is what the united fans will want him to change. He also has a ability to make teams counter attack with great pace which is what the old united was all about. Some fans have expressed their concerns about the young players under united and how mourinho will manage them . That remains as a question to be seen as he is known to splash the cash rather than developing players.Lets see how he manages united and whether he changes any of his tactics .
Well thats it for now from us . We will keep you updated on any new updates regarding this saga.
