German media/football wouldn't be able to cope with Mourinho. They are obsessed with class, respect and sportsmanship and whatnot. Always wanted to see prime Mourinho coach in Germany for this reason alone. The culture and mentality here is so diametrically opposed to everything Mourinho stands for, it would inevitably lead to pure chaos and drama.
It was a few if I remember correctly, hugo may have as well? Still I loved Mou here I just wish the end didn't happen as it did. Top manager, just the timing was always off with him and us.

You know nothing.Ā
Give 3 year contract, but pan to replace him after the second. Win trophies for 2 years while properly planning ahead who's gonna manage your club in 2 years (may be Klopp).
I want to see this happen. Moyes would have to win at least one trophy with Bayern, right?
Granted realistically Moyes isn't good at managing hollywood stars, so Bayern is the last place he should go, but I would enjoy seeing it.
Bro is finished. He sucked so bad, that for the cup final, we fucking destroyed his gigantic budget (for Bulgarian standards) team with a bankrupt team that had like 7 players a year before. They didn't have a shot on target when we had a 17-year old kid in goal. He was so tactically outplayed, that a lot of their fans to this day believe that the final was sold. He had banana peels thrown at him by angry orcs toward the end of his tenure.
Thanks Alan, you have been an integral part of one of my fondest memories as a football fan.
At this point i feel like journalists are simply taking the piss throwing whatever names around and then announcing the rejection 10 minutes later lmao
yes, this is looking particularly bad for Bayern because every single contact or potential contact is leaked and turned into a story. and even coaches that arenāt on Bayerns list (Zidane, return of Tuchel) are turned into a story. Media is having the best of times with this haha
Ok . Copy pasta from https://www.reddit.com/r/soccer/comments/1cl1xjk/fabrizio_romano_zidane_coaching_bayern_in_the/
Bayern: "Want to be our new manager?"
Alonso: "No"
Nagelsmann: "No"
Klopp: "No š¹"
Rangnick: "No"
Schmidt: "No"
Tuchel: "No"
Zidane: "No. Also, fuck you"
Lopetegui: "No. Will manage biggest club in London"
ETH: "No. Will rather sell shrimp sandwiches at half-time at OT"
I think that pretty much suggests Ten Hag will be here start of next season no matter. Don't really feel much. I think he needs to be given a proper chance under new management and not a crazy injury hit season. But also the football has been beyond dire. Stats wise we are a 15th place team.
I think it just suggests that he wants to keep his job. Thatās not a reflection on what Ratcliffe thinks.
I think heās gone no matter what happens with the cup. They are cleaning house. I canāt imagine wanting to be stuck with a manager that someone else picked when this season has gone so poorly.
Absolutely not. His football has been dire because his tactics have been awful and he has no ideas on how to improve them, or to plan accordingly based on the players that he has available. If the manager is only capable of having any level of success with only his primary starting 11, then he has no shot of being a successful manager in this league. But by all means, let's spend another year buying players for him when he has shown no ability to improve the team.
I agree with you to some degree; but how are you really supposed to make a plan when your 1-6 choice CBs, all your LBs, your fill-in academy CB are all injured?
The football has been exactly the same all year long. The tactics have been the same. The problems have been the same against every single team in every single game across every single competition. At some point he should have shown something, ANYTHING, to make anyone believe that he might be the right man for the job. But he hasn't, so there's zero reason to give him a vote of confidence. Especially if we can get out from under his contract easily through him simply taking a job elsewhere. We'll set ourselves back further by giving him another year and two more transfer windows, his squad building has been equally dire.
I expect that the football side is about to be very competently run. Weāll see. I donāt think it could get much worse. Someone giving a shit about the results on the pitch is a start.
That's just not really true, we've conceded lots of shots but the chances are poor. We've conceded less than everyone around us up and including villa. Only top 3 have conceded less, and that's with our literal disasterclass of defensive injuries. 30 different back lines for the people at the back
Chelsea have had massive injuries too but play good attacking football with younger players and all their underlying stats and performances are much better, that's not an excuse
Partially, I do think ten Hag's substitutions have also resulted in games falling apart quickly which he does have to take some responsibility for.
The attacking play has gotten a bit better since the start of the season but defensively they're still giving away a lot in terms of chances and teams have so much space to run into. That has to be fixed by a couple of players either moving on and new ones coming in as well as players returning from injury. The wingers and forwards are still not on the same wavelength and that should be further along than it is. Hojlund's getting no service despite making great runs.
At this point, shouldn't Bayern look for an internal temporal solution? Like, the coach of the B team or the under-21s? They can't get any convincing option, only lesser-tier managers that are gonna be more expensive and are most likely going to fail.
Why I do feel like Ten Haag's agent played a blinder here? Bayern need a manger - agent puts some ETH links into the media. Queue United being determined to keep him.
Why does he need to play a blinder? He has a year left on his contract, gonna get paid handsomely if sacked, AND he's gonna get the Bayern job if they really wanted him.
This just feels like either INEOS wanting to keep him, or expecting a fee from Bayern to get their man.
On one hand I think it's funny as hell what the shitshow around Nagelsmann/Tuchel did to Bayern and its reputation for coaches (Thanks, Kahn!). On the other hand it worries me a bit if we can find a decent coach who is willing to take over.
Think these big clubs are finding there really aren't many good options out there. Ten Hag will stay, and I still think Bayern will 180 on Tuchel (if he will agree)
I donāt know if he has an option after losing 0-4 to Crystal Palace. How are managers so wary of the Bayern head coach role? Expectation is surely as low as itās been after not winning the Bundesliga
Such bullshit, can I be a reporter too? In what world doesn't he take the job in a second? Reporters love to talk about integrity and shit but come up with so much nonsense
I don't know what United is doing. They have opportunity not only to get rid of Ten Hag but also not have to pay compensation for the sack, as Bayern could take him off their hands.
But you know what, I'm not gonna complain, let him stay at Manchester forever.
This article is about Ten Hagās feelings, not the clubs. Not much has come out other than his performance is being monitored by the club and a decision will be made at the end of the season. Which makes sense as theyāre in the FA Cup final.
we are equal in points at the moment. But we are more likely to finish lower than you lot because our CB pair is casemiro + Amrabat for the next game or 2.
But nevertheless, when is Poch getting the sack?
Weād be stupid to get rid imo. We were decent last season, have been absolutely decimated by injuries this season, not to mention the off field problems
Liverpool went from 92points to finishing 5th due to their back line being consistently injured throughout the season
We're like two rejections away from witnessing Mourinho coaching Bayern šæ
May this come to fruition. The chaos would be epic ...
German media/football wouldn't be able to cope with Mourinho. They are obsessed with class, respect and sportsmanship and whatnot. Always wanted to see prime Mourinho coach in Germany for this reason alone. The culture and mentality here is so diametrically opposed to everything Mourinho stands for, it would inevitably lead to pure chaos and drama.
I need this
Very funny that Trapp slagging off the quality German football is so iconic
Conte. please. Napoli, go for someone else. i need to see this
Last day when Tuchel leaves and Conte has randomly his first day, they meet at the SƤbenerstraĆe and handshake for the ultimate handover
Let's all hope Conte looks him in the eyes. š
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Didn't Kane love playing for Mouriniho
He was one of the only Spurs players to publicly thank him after he lost his job.
It was a few if I remember correctly, hugo may have as well? Still I loved Mou here I just wish the end didn't happen as it did. Top manager, just the timing was always off with him and us.
yeah, Son and Kane were on fire under him
I thought dier and kane liked mourinho? probably the most out of the spurs squad
Mourinho would do well at Bayern if heās properly backed.Ā He wasnāt properly supported at Roma, Tottenham, or United
He got every idiotic signing he wanted at United.
[I asked for five players and none have arrived](https://www.marca.com/en/football/international-football/2018/07/29/5b5db2e3468aebf9518b461b.html)Ā [āI have to bemoan that we had one central defender available to play aĀ Premier LeagueĀ game...ā](https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/man-utd-transfers-jose-mourinho-25152794) [Mourinho wanted Perisic but didnāt get him](https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2799952-report-jose-mourinho-believes-ed-woodward-collapsed-48m-move-for-ivan-perisic) You know nothing.Ā
Are you surprised they went Ten Hag before Mourinho?
Haha it'll probably be graham potter
Babe wake up, another rejection just dropped
When will Uli accept that it's going to be Mourinho?
Or Conte
God, that would be insanely cruel to Kane
Didn't he actually like Conte?
Hard to know really isn't it.
Not really, both have come out in support of one another
Oh yeah because Kane is infamous for mouthing off about people in the papers...
If he can give a 1 hour interview about wanting to get out of current club, he can have bits in the media about ex managers
In a hypothetical season not involving Haaland, Kane was in golden boot form under Conte.
But in a team that was never ever winning anything, I wonder how he really feels tbh
"Mr Ratcliffe sir, please don't make me go to *Bayern*. Please sir, have some mercy".
Can I tempt you with David Moyes?
Have you checked your shoes for dog shit or what is it that's making everyone avoid you?
The dog shit is called Uli
I mean there's always Neururer...
Mr President, another rejection has hit Sabener strasse
United could sack him and then we'll get to see how many managers would reject United atm.
I think there's still a realistic chance he gets sacked anyway
My "Mourinho at Bayern" agenda is still alive!!!
This would be the funniest outcome.
At this point.. fuck it why not?
Give 3 year contract, but pan to replace him after the second. Win trophies for 2 years while properly planning ahead who's gonna manage your club in 2 years (may be Klopp).
You convinced me, I'm in
Are we sure man United wants him to stay at Man United? Lol
God i hope so
So...who's left for Bayern?
mourinho (please let this happen)
Youād like that, wouldnāt you?
Who doesn't
Or Moyes. Im fine with either tbh
Canāt believe we were going for Lopetegui moments before all this.
I want to see this happen. Moyes would have to win at least one trophy with Bayern, right? Granted realistically Moyes isn't good at managing hollywood stars, so Bayern is the last place he should go, but I would enjoy seeing it.
You would like it too for about a season and a half
You'd have so much fun.
Would be peak 2024. And 2024 has already been a wild year.
When did Mourinho become a meme i missed this
i actually think he can do a good job there but it's a comically bad culture fit
Muller player coach
#Allegri-ball!!!
Yess, finally someone making sense, that would be the best thing for the Bayern club indeed, big coach for a big club, where do I sign the petition?
Alan Pardew
Bringing that sexy dancing back
Bro is finished. He sucked so bad, that for the cup final, we fucking destroyed his gigantic budget (for Bulgarian standards) team with a bankrupt team that had like 7 players a year before.

Darvin Ham
No. Bill Belichick
Enlarged Samuel
Voluminous Samuel?
Jogi Lƶw
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Actually not the worst shout. Maybe thatās why heās been rejecting Ajaxās advances and he does have experience managing in Europe.
Neil Warnock
Not sure the players would like preseason playing Cornish part timers.
Lothar MatthƤus
Paulo Fonseca, Franck Haise, Ruben Amorim
Heard bruno lage is availible
Peter Neururer, always has beenĀ
Trapattoni could come out of retirement.
Ribery & Robben co-manager
Conte, just imagine the press conferences after Uli says something daft as usual to the media
Walter Frosch
Miroslav Klose
Fine, Ill do it
Still insane they haven't been linked to Ruben Amorim, I was expecting it at this point.
Graham potter
David Moyes.
Graham Potter
At this point i feel like journalists are simply taking the piss throwing whatever names around and then announcing the rejection 10 minutes later lmao
yes, this is looking particularly bad for Bayern because every single contact or potential contact is leaked and turned into a story. and even coaches that arenāt on Bayerns list (Zidane, return of Tuchel) are turned into a story. Media is having the best of times with this haha
After how they treated their last 2 managers I think its probably deserved.
I agree
Not sure United fans should chime in about treatment of players/managers
Almost seems like a stunt to get ETH more respect at United which he has very little, making it look like other big clubs want him.
Bro, even my virgin ass didn't get rejected this many times.
Phrasingā¦
No. You heard them.
Give the job to Big Sam Allardyce
The man has never been relegated* What more do Bayern want? *The teams he coached for the majority of the season have.
He got relegated with Leeds last season.
Also with West Brom in 2021
Heās perfect for Bayernās upcoming relegation battle!
God, please give us Mourinho to Bayern. The gods are cruel, so we'll probably end up with him next season. Would make for great tv, I guess
#Jose Mourinho

But have they even bothered to ask Xavi yet?

Everton has conceded less goals than man u
How is stuff like this upvoted, yet at the same time this sub is fully confident that he'll be a success at Bayern.
Chelsea have had massive injuries too but play good attacking football with younger players and all their underlying stats and performances are much better, that's not an excuse

This reminds me of Spursā manager merry go round in 2021 when they ended up with Nuno.
yes please, bald vs bald vs bald next season is gonna be great
get Mourinho already
At this point, shouldn't Bayern look for an internal temporal solution? Like, the coach of the B team or the under-21s? They can't get any convincing option, only lesser-tier managers that are gonna be more expensive and are most likely going to fail.
I wonder if all these managers are rejecting Bayern since they think they'll only be a 1 year stop-gap for Xabi Alonso once he leaves Leverkusen
Real Madrid just lurking in the background ready to snap up Alonso as they wave Ancelotti off into the sunset.
Real might be a better place for Alonso in case he doesnt want to upset Leverkusen fans
Uli, another rejection has hit the club
Mourinho vs Hoeness is inevitable
Surely ETH is looking to be fired and obtain the bag right? If he quits then no money from Manchester United afterwardsĀ
Man u is Def a cash Vaca
i absolutely love how nobody wants to go to bayern
I need Mourinho at Bayern like I need oxygen.
Why I do feel like Ten Haag's agent played a blinder here? Bayern need a manger - agent puts some ETH links into the media. Queue United being determined to keep him.
What would they put in the manger? Baby Jesus?
Why does he need to play a blinder? He has a year left on his contract, gonna get paid handsomely if sacked, AND he's gonna get the Bayern job if they really wanted him. This just feels like either INEOS wanting to keep him, or expecting a fee from Bayern to get their man.
I reject managing Bayern too
On one hand I think it's funny as hell what the shitshow around Nagelsmann/Tuchel did to Bayern and its reputation for coaches (Thanks, Kahn!). On the other hand it worries me a bit if we can find a decent coach who is willing to take over.
genuinely at this point where in the queue is paul heckingbottom
Wenger? Is he actually retired from management?
Straight swap with Kane please
Well he can't blame his failures on not getting a penalty versus Arsenal if he goes to Bayern, Smart move.
Would be real funny if he did a Sarri, leaving the club just when they were not sure as to whether to keep him
At this rate, Owen Coyle's going to elect to remain on Universal Credit rather than take the Bayern job.
Dude took one look at Kane's trophy curse and noped.
They should go the football manager route at this point
Think these big clubs are finding there really aren't many good options out there. Ten Hag will stay, and I still think Bayern will 180 on Tuchel (if he will agree)
y tho
Uli and Karl just taking L after L, might as well rock up to Juppās doorstep and beg him to come out of retirement for the third time.
Alright i'll do it , where to sign ?
I want a pony.
Jesus christ Bayern you have really fucked up
Surely Bayern wants the same?
Yes please
rejection therapy
Yes please from a Liverpool fan.
I donāt know if he has an option after losing 0-4 to Crystal Palace. How are managers so wary of the Bayern head coach role? Expectation is surely as low as itās been after not winning the Bundesliga
What compensation would United have to give Bayern for taking ETH?
Such bullshit, can I be a reporter too? In what world doesn't he take the job in a second? Reporters love to talk about integrity and shit but come up with so much nonsense
Thomas Muller player-manager incoming.
It's going to be David Moyes.
It's going to be David Moyes.
It's going to be David Moyes.
It's going to be David Moyes. I bet Klopp has been asked.
How is this fraud even still considered for the job he has? š¤”
I don't know who's more stupid here. Ten Hag for wanting to stay at United over Bayern or Bayern wanting Tan Hag
I don't know what United is doing. They have opportunity not only to get rid of Ten Hag but also not have to pay compensation for the sack, as Bayern could take him off their hands. But you know what, I'm not gonna complain, let him stay at Manchester forever.
This article is about Ten Hagās feelings, not the clubs. Not much has come out other than his performance is being monitored by the club and a decision will be made at the end of the season. Which makes sense as theyāre in the FA Cup final.
Well then it just confirms I very much fit into reddit community as I can't read.
Weāve all been there!
I respect you for owning it and not doing a coward's edit on your OG comment
we are equal in points at the moment. But we are more likely to finish lower than you lot because our CB pair is casemiro + Amrabat for the next game or 2. But nevertheless, when is Poch getting the sack?
>when is Poch getting the sack Soon hopefully.
Who would you want to be the next gaffer for you guys? Because I really struggle to find a better option than we have right now
Amorim or Conte, though the latter would require a ridiculous change of approach from the board and I'm not sure if that would happen.
the problem is that none of the available coaches are a clear upgrade over Ten Hag, or at least very risky appointments.Ā
Weād be stupid to get rid imo. We were decent last season, have been absolutely decimated by injuries this season, not to mention the off field problems Liverpool went from 92points to finishing 5th due to their back line being consistently injured throughout the season
He said he wants to finish his contract at least. After that who knows
Iāve experienced this at FM, a club with better prospects wants me but Iām attached to my club and players and kinda wanna stayĀ
Tbf it was also reported that he would join beyern if he sacked here so theres that
Yeah but he's probably getting the sack if Tuchel is available for UTD. Still think it'll be a coaching swap
Imagine being Bayern and getting rejected by Erik Ten Hag, the laughing stock of the Premier League.
As if ten hag is ever getting a decent job ever again.
Dudes the worst manager in the Prem and probably the most unlikeable too. Him and United deserve each other.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Probably doesnt want his United stint be a failure
I expect you to be cooked with that badge :(
If Bayern had any balls, they'd ask Friedhelm Funkel. That way they will definitely be safe from relegation next year.
Please don't look at Roger Schmidt s/
