Yep. In May 2015. 66 months ago, which is 5.5 years and as he can’t win a trophy for a few months at the earliest I’ve taken the liberty of rounding it up to 6 years.

Hope this helps pal.

Typical Mou M.O. “I don’t want to talk” before droning on endlessly about the thing he doesn’t want to talk about.

Even simple things like pressing properly. You watch Mane yesterday and the way he was pressing Schmeichel and Leicester’s back line, forcing them to boot it out of play and give back possession. Then you watch Martial’s effort at a ‘press’; it’s laughable. I think our opposition defenders just ignore him. Small things done well help win games.
Why have you quoted that post then answered to a previous discussion?

Took a while to get through it, but agree it is an interesting read. Strange how the discussion slowly evolved into a Mou-Off, although also very funny in hindsight. Ethers comes out very well and sagey throughout.

A couple of personal highlights:

there's just one step forward and 3 steps back. Welcome to mediocrity.

And with context:
