My head would explode watching a team managed by Mourinho week after week.
He's only human.
He's only human.
I was going for the exact same title!
I hope we can keep this classy. I don’t have any respect for the man but he is a human with a family

Alex Ferguson is in intensive care after suffering a brain haemorrhage.
Former Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson is in intensive care after undergoing emergency surgery for a brain haemorrhage, the club have confirmed.
Ferguson is reported to have fallen ill on Friday and admitted to Macclesfield District Hospital before being transferred later to Salford Royal.
The 76-year-old's son Darren - who is Doncaster Rovers manager - missed his team's game with Wigan Athletic on Saturday due to "family issues".
And United confirmed on Saturday that Ferguson, their manager for 27 years until 2013, is recovering after a procedure that went "very well".
A United statement read: "Sir Alex Ferguson has undergone surgery today for a brain haemorrhage.
"The procedure has gone very well but he needs a period of intensive care to optimise his recovery. His family request privacy in this matter."
The Scot has been a regular visitor to Old Trafford following his decision to stand down five years ago and was in attendance last Sunday to present a gift to long-time adversary Arsene Wenger, who is leaving Arsenal at the end of the season.
Ferguson overcame a slow start at United to preside over a period of unprecedented success, leading the Red Devils to 13 Premier League titles and two Champions League crowns.

*backs out of thread*
hope he comes out of of it ok ...
Me too.
Never liked nor respected the man, but he's a human being and has family who loves him.
I wish him quick recovery.
Something's go past football and this is one.
Sad times for his family.
Sad times for his family.
Ferguson attended a Hillsborough memorial service which I went to, I then found out how supportive he'd been at the time of the disaster when I looked into it.
He also attended the funerals of Bob Paisley & many years later of his wife also.
He achieved a great deal as a manager & did so repeatedly by completely rebuilding his side & changing tactics to find a way to better his rivals time & again.
The man deserves our respect at the very least for that humanity he showed in times which really matter, if not for his achievements as a manager, & he certainly has mine.

That reads like "this is why, you, Liverpool fans, should wish him well".
If you wanna wish him well, wish him well. It shouldn't need justifying.
Would feel weird if he died. I don't despise him or anything, but by no means do I like him. Hope he pulls through like.
Hey ... he is the King of the enemy but I do not wish him serious illness just because he knocked us of our perch.
I hope he is alright.
I hope he is alright.
I never liked him but as others have commented he was always tremendously respectful about Hillsborough and he maintained his friendship with King Kenny over decades of rivalry. I respect him for what he achieved and the way he did it, hope he recovers from this but there had been rumours he was struggling physically towards the end of his time at Utd, doing that job for 30 years must take a toll.
