Exactly my thoughts. He knows he'll be leaving soon and he is obviously aware of the Jose rumours. And he has never ever taken any responsibility (not once did he acknowledge he might somehow be involved in the bad results) - it's always excuses. Blame the fans, the players, too many matches, bad weather… Very similar to Torres in this respect. He probably thinks he's doing a great job. So why should he care at this stage? If we don't finish top 4 he'll come up with new excuses so it won't hurt his future prospects too much. Either he really is a bad manager and cannot read the game (his subs, not playing Ba today etc.) or he simply doesn't care whether we qualify or not. Perhaps the FA club means more to him = personal trophy.
