#251 – Mourinho is Coming




Rant Cast show

Summary: They say he is a legend. No, not Wayne Rooney’s acting, nor the booze the Manchester United striker was shilling, but manager-in-waiting-if-we-believe-the-tabloids José Mourinho. The former Chelsea manager’s representatives have reportedly held talks with United in recent weeks. On the pitch incumbent manager Louis van Gaal steered his side to a draw with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge, but could the Reds have taken more from the game. Ed & Paul take your questions, discuss the transfer window, and ponder Gary Neville’s faltering time as manager of Valencia. Also on the pod this week Ed & Paul discuss United’s 3-3 draw with Newcastle at St. James’ Park – a match that already feels like an aberration of entertainment in an otherwise unbroken commitment by Louis van Gaal to dullness. And you questions. Lots of ’em!
