Jack L. Jones
Dead man walking.
It's almost like he does it on purpose just after signing a new contract
Dead man walking.
His key under performers ... bailly lindelof pogba ... all of his signings ... And not cheap either ....
Of course! He's being kept there against his will. Can't expect world class performances then.Martial was total brick yesterday too.

Different players and different situations.No point in picking Alderweirld or Rose then?
He is nearly as witty as Charlie Nicholas
Is it possible that this month will end with both Pogba and Martial both sold abroad?
The board and Woodward hired Mourinho. Knowing what he is and how he operates. The board and Woodward kept Mourinho. Knowing what he is and how he operates. If they at any point didn't know that's just pure incompetence.They spent £80M this summer - how has he managed to make it look like he has had no backing. By all accounts the board have said we will back you we just don't want to play loads for 29 year olds, and he couldn't go out and find any young players he wants.

Coming out of last season they had two fairly good options. Sack Mourinho, bring in a manager or a DoF and a manager/head coach to move the club in the direction they want. Or back Mourinho giving him what he wanted.
They should know that giving Mourinho good players that he doesn't like for his system is a good way to get into trouble. They choose this kind of middle way. Knowing that some personal working relationships were already frayed. Knowing that with any run of 2-3 poor results in a row at any time during the first 3-4 months of the season would bring a lot of turmoil and a potential rupture in already frayed relationships.
Not knowing any of the above I point out that they know is pure incompetence. Gambling that a small poor run wouldn't come is naive. Thinking that Mourinho could change or that they could manage Mourinho out of this is deluded.
This is on Woodward and the board. They had two good options, both would have been somewhat unpopular with some fans or the owners. But both would be good. Choosing what they did is pure gambling, hoping for a lucky run of results, and will most likely see them scrambling at some point this season.
De Gea has now conceded 10 goals from the last 16 shots on target.They were just as terrible last season, the difference is that De Gea isn't saving everything and they aren't getting the lucky breaks. Instead, they are getting results that reflect their performances.
