People should stop coming up with "career over for good" comments

FINNNNAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!! It feels like I have been waiting for an eternity for Arsenal to drop points :

We would have surely broken the rules at vitesse

Jose Mourinho believes Thibaut Courtois will return to Chelsea next season

I was shocked seeing that. We have a huge disadvantage in terms of stadium revenue.

This might also happen. From the comments of diego simione, he says they need to keep Courtois at all cost. It was as if he meant that he is more important than any other player there. They might go as far as offering us Costa on the platter just to keep Courtois

And passing, and first touch

This is the best decision for the future. The time is coming where we must make this decision. But it won't feel right, it just won't. But mourinho has done it before to success.

Madrid we're a high pressing team too. But different to dortmund because the only hard worker in their attack was dimaria. The rest (ronaldo, ozil, benzema) were all lazy bums in defending. But mourinho could cope with it because they all had speed though.

I can't believe a striker can have all this genuine quality, but is ruining it with his attitude. Doesn't he mature?? I would have loved him here because he ticks all the boxes ability wise, but we don't know if he'll be punching Jose in Cobham.

His finishing is very good. He shoots it low and hard just as I like. How is his first touch/ball control?? Suarez level or torres level?

Mou always played with high pressure. It wasn't from dortmund. If you watched inter milan, it was the same. Under ancelloti, we broke the goals record in the league and we couldn't find a single goal against inter. Dortmund did it better on the day but Jose was always using that tactic.

I know willian is faster than him in long distances but I'm not sure he's as fast with the ball. We'll see. He'll take time to adjust. But I was basing my judgement on mourinho's usual formations in other teams he coached. His knack for ending up with left footers on the right might work in salah's favour

Willian is the better technical player, better first touch, and better technique. But I think salah runs faster with the ball. But if you follow mourinho's career, he always seems to end up having a left footer on the right. That's why he tried mata there, but he was too slow.

Too good to be true. He just wants a bigger contract. Matic - Kroos ?? Too good to be true.

Exactly. Mourinho always had a robben/pandev/dimaria at every club. His left foot is a major factor in mourinhos tactics than we know. Won't be shocked to see him and matic as sure starters later this season.

It'll be defence vs attack. But if we score 2 or 3 goals, we will win for sure.

This^^ Mourinho doesn't want to turn our attackers to center backs as the media assume, he wants them pressing high constantly which causes pressure on the opposition while keeping our defense safe.

I think he had his best game for us against stoke. I thought he'll destroy every single attack we had with terrible crossing but he was passing better for a change. He even tried a silky dribble and it came off. I hope he's changing for good and not crossing all our attacks to drogba at galatasaray.

So in terms of finishing he's somewhere above or at Higuain's level?

Mourinho apologizes

Mourinho apologizes

How is his finishing? I know he has workrate which jose likes, and is good in the air, (no one will be happier than ivanovic crosses if he comes) but I haven't watched him enough to judge his finishing

Is it only me that gets this feeling that when we score once, the game is over? Were looking almost as secure as Jose's first time with us.

Messi can be a madman at times. Goes through the whole defence and the keeper then chips the ball in. Hazard's not there yet
