Mourinho explains why Bayern lost yesterday… I like attacking football, who doesn’t? But what I like is effective football. Rijkaard’s Barca of 2004-07, Pep’s Barca of 08-11 were effective and that’s why they should be praised. The problem is when the opponents change their tactics in response, you adapt or your strategy dies. Football is as much attack as it is defend. This is why I consider Ferguson the finest manager in the world in the past 12-15 years at least. He adapted. Wenger came, beat him, and he tweaked the team and won 3 Premier Leagues in a row with a CL to boot. Mourinho came and smashed the league, Ferguson finished outside the top 2 for 2 years in a row (one when we had Ranieri) and he went back to the drawing board. Sometime in the 05-06 season you saw Man United suddenly charge behind us mid-season, but couldn’t prevent us from winning. They did manage to win the league the season after. City came with their wealth and players and won… Ferguson again adapted and won in his final season with what was not a very attractive footballing display. Ferguson had delightful attacking teams that won leagues, and defensive performances when he needed. Their CL semifinal against Barcelona in 07-08 was a quite defensive performance… but it was necessary. Adapt the teams based on the players you have, the opponents you face and make the teams effective. That’s the quality of good managers. What makes the manager great is if he can do all that and rebuild the squad over the years at the same club, which puts Ferguson over Mourinho and almost all other managers for me. This asinine Holy-Grail quest football philosophy that has a ‘perfect style’ of football that all must seek is as brittle as it’s inflexible and it is not worthy. I have questioned Mourinho this season because at times I thought his strategy wasn’t effective against weaker teams. But I would love it, just love it, if he first smashes Atletico and then Real in Lisbon and throws the finger at the press by winning.

If that news with Cech is true, either Mourinho trolled every fucking person on this planet or Eva & co. did amazing job.

How fucking good is this guy? When Cech was injured against Atletico, I had a really bad feeling, but Schwarzer was fucking immense in that game. And now again. I'm not worried at all about our goalkeeper in CL. Cech or Courtois or Schwarzer next season?!

This guys looks like porn star in 80s. I would go as far as giving Ramires + 40M for him. This guy is one of the finest midfielders there are. Him and Matic would solve the problem we've been having for years in midfield. If we can't sign him, go for Gundogan, another porn star looking guy, but probably much cheaper than Vidal.

If Liverpool win the league should their title get an asterisk?
Melanicus replied to Koppler's topic in Matthew Harding Stand
Can any native English speaker explain to me what the fuck is asterisk? Reminds me of this guy. -

Classis Mourinho... Mou wants 0-0, Mou gets 0-0. I'm only calm about the second leg, because we've got such a fantastic and experienced manager!
