No way will Daniel Levy let him go. The only way will be enough compensation to totally pay for our new ground 👍

For a manager who has won nothing? Ha. You’re somewhat exaggerating the strength of your position. As is said, worst case is he quits and we pay for him.

Don't worry, the new guy at Southampton looks like a miteleurope equivalent. Will only cost half of the poch compo, levy can move the rest offshore and we're as we were...

It's embarrassing the way utd and their fans are fawning over '"poch". I watched the game yesterday and Nevilles 10 minute love in for him was vomit inducing
Totally agree.
He’s been very lucky imo, not adding a quality striker up front was very risky.
If Kane has gotten an injury he would have been stuck.
Managing Spurs and Man Utd are worlds apart.
Levy is a tough negotiator but everyone has a price,and if anyone thinks that’s not true join the other Hockey lovers.

About 200 miles apart. Otherwise they are both big PL teams so not that much difference.

Join the Hockey brigade Gordon.
LP likes your comment so it’s obviously waffle.
Nah....I just think you're 'bigging up' the Utd job to be something it isn't. It's on a par with any top PL job these days but nothing more.

Nonsense. I brings a pressure like no other club in England.

I don’t think that’s true. Chelsea in recent years have sacked Cup and league winning managers. You gave Mourinho an extension for getting 4th.......

Utd are still the biggest cub in England. There’s no doubt about that. But the next manager who comes in will likely be taking over a team in the Europa league, you’ll be at best 3rd favs for the league. That’s not the sort of pressure that is put on the managers at other clubs currently.

Just being Man Utd brings a pressure that other clubs couldn’t begin to feel. Add into that having the weight of Fergie’s legacy which has seen off LVG and Jose who were seen as two of the most likely to cope with it. Add into that a squad that needs a massive overhaul, especially at the back. Add into that the scrutiny of the media that no other team comes close to matching. And then, just for fun, remember we’re the most hated club in England and opposing fans will jump all over any and all failures.

At first I thought that Man Utd would pay the £40mil needed to get him but I’m starting to think he may not go there because of the size of the project and possibly the lack of patience at times , I can see Madrid going for him and then that’s a pick he could go for.

Let’s get it right,Utd are the biggest club in the world.

You could also say there’s more pressure on whoever comes in if your scenario comes true,getting us back in C/L and challenging for the title again.
