The special one??

Have to confess to a certain amount of schadenfreude about the goings-on at Manchester United, but I do wonder whether Mourinho is really the man for them.  It seems to me that for the second time in a row they have sacked a manager who was beginning to show signs of putting together a cohesive team capable of living with the best.  Van Gaal comes across as a rather dour character and for much of the season the team's football seemed to reflect this, but towards the end of the season they began to play more like the Manchester United of old.  But now it's back to the drawing board and getting used to a new manager who is known for having his own very definite ideas and not suffering fools gladly - so we shall see.
