Well there we were hoping to see the look on Jose Mourinho's face as Manuel Pellegrini's West Ham overtook Mourinho's beleagured Manchester United side in the Barclays Premier League, unfortunately fate has dealt that aspiration a blow with what many knew would happen, namely the sacking of the 'Sour One'. Such a pity, because whoever comes in to replace him will surely galvanise United's players making the task of Hammers finishing ahead of them more difficult but not impossible.
The writing has been on the wall for a long time, but perhaps one of the pivotal moments was when Mourinho's team got turned over 3-1 at the London Stadium, prompting the 'Sour One' to suggest that Hammers recruitment was on 'another level' to that of his own club. Mourinho further went on to say Issa Diop was a monster and congratulations for finding him.
One plus point about Mourinho's departure, is the threat of Marko Arnoutovic being lured to Manchester United during the January transfer window will have dissipated somewhat, if not entirely and other arranged areas of the Red Devils 'tapping up' policies regarding West Ham players will now not meet fruition.
It may be a touch of the old schadenfreude, but hey come on, how many times have the Mancs gloated over and enjoyed Hammers traumas over the years? - Ed
