The Mourinho Thread

Fire sale this week?

[Term-X 7,891]

He won't be playing any youth team players in a long time. That's for sure.

One youth player started, Ake & the 'much hyped' (by Mourinho) Loftus-Cheek did not play.

[Term-X 7,891]

The used subs were Fabregas, Hazard and Willian

Ake & Loftus-Cheek rotted on the bench.

[The Chels 2,502]

Hate to say I told you so... Our defensive system isn't very good and has no clear structure! Even with our best players we look vulnerable defensively. I haven't seen the game but I can almost guarantee the usual disorganised pressing and lack of compactness was on show.

[Fernando 6,375]

Yes agree with @Term-X,

This was not a "youth" team.

So don't blame it on the youth for crying out loud!

[Special Juan 27,093]

Here come the 'I told you so' Brigade

Must be brilliant hiding under a rock.

This was a strong enough team to beat a league one side, the buck stops with the players on this one. Thoroughly embarassed tonight.

Ha,

One youth player started, Ake & the 'much hyped' (by Mourinho) Loftus-Cheek did not play.

Did he really say Loftus Cheek was much hyped?

[lucio 5,371]

ah well. at least the other big team fans cant laugh at us......shocking...but probably wont matter.

I've been very upfront about the defensive issues actually.

[Term-X 7,891]

Ha,

Did he really say Loftus Cheek was much hyped?

I was just referring to the time when Mourinho brought him into the press conference before the CL game, then only played him for 2 seconds.

Didn't you know? Azpilicueta will rather be played at LB against the mighty Bradford.

[Kunter 22]

3rd unaccaptable game this season. Josewhats wrong with you?

[Special Juan 27,093]

Carry on, don't let anyone stop you from voicing your opinion. It's just amazing that these voices come after a shock defeat and seem to come with a swagger.......

Oh. Let me rephrase that. Don't expect the fringe players to start again.

[Viper22 2,418]

The team Mourinho selected was more than good enough to beat Bradford EASILY. You cannot logically criticize him for the team he selected.

I haven't seen the match (like most of you) so we don't know yet whether it was Mou's tactics or the players who fucked up big time.

So until we've seen the match highlights, I suggest everyone holds their opinions back until they have too.

[Madmax 9,219]

There's probably going to be some silly stuff written around these parts and I'm better off not reading it. Time to crack open a couple of beers and then hit the sack. See you lot on Tuesday!

People, chill
