Laylabelle 9,754 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 I doubt Mourinho thinks like that.Same.We got like that a bit last year and came out badly so this time round different attitude completely.Showed it against Arsenal..Villa etc no reason why they should think differently this time.Bloody better not anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kellzfresh 7,229 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 I doubt Mourinho thinks like that.I know Mourinho doesn't think that way. Just the expectation from fans on our team could make our players become complacent. Mourinho needs to make sure that doesn't happen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrExcalibur100 7,124 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 You can't bemoan not killing off teams when you sit back and defend with a full 20 MINUTES to go. Been disappointed with his tactics in the two trips to Manchester. Madmax 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been disappointed with his tactics in the two trips to Manchester. How are you going to attack teams when only Hazard is really playing well? Rest of the attack was poor and Drogba cant run. Its a shame we lost but lets not start ridiculing Jose when we have done really well so far this season.

Cholo 428 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Coward tactics again.You fail at life.He just should take more risk sometimes. If we somehow defended the setpiece, we'd be praising him. Shit anyway. Mourinho will have to improve on it. Then again, every manager has his faults.

Its a shame we lost but lets not start ridiculing Jose when we have done really well so far this season.I'm not ridiculing him, mate. Just making an observation. Jose is still my guy but we shouldn't have retreated into a shell in the last 20 mins against that United side. I also agree that perhaps 1 or 2 players put up unacceptable performances today which is beyond the manager's hands. Barbara 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iseah100 5,612 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 2 points.Not the end of the world. Tough, but Man U are improving. 2 points from Manchester won't lose us the title. We are still 6 points ahead of City and they have to come to our house next time. Cholo and Polo7 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a good idea to take Oscar off and push Cesc forward. Unfortunately he chose Mikel to come on and not Ramires (was he on the bench?) I just hope he doesnt do this against Liverpool.

Amblève. 4,995 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 At some point you have to change your approach. This is the second time we've sat deeper vs a non-mediocre team and it was also the second time that the opponent managed to score a goal to tie things up. I'm all for not going out full-attack but at least we should be able to control the game when we're up 1:0. That really shouldn't be too much to ask for.

Maybe in the first half we lost the midfield battle, but we were cruising and dominating possession when Oscar came off. It's not even that he brought Mikel off, it's the shift in attitude of the team to full defensive mode with 20 MINS to go. Those are tactical orders.

MrBlueGuy 1,552 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Bayern go for 4 up in the 1st half against Roma away from home, score 3 more in the 2nd half...Chelsea go 1-0 up against a shit MU team with 30 mins to go, immediately go for defensive approach. Not saying it is right or wrong but just to put it into perspective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying it is right or wrong but just to put it into perspective.And Bayern had a new draw for the third time in the league right now, Bayern lost more points than Chelsea in a League where they don't have any oponent. The reality is that almost for sure with Mourinho CHelsea don't lose against big teams... and it seems really easy this kind of games... But it's not like that.Before a game against WBA every one here is really concerned because it's a difficult game... but then you want to win without any problems in Old Trafford.Chelsea had the best record against the big 4 or 5 last season, and this season we will do it again. If you want to win scoring 4 goals in old trafford buy Messi or Ronaldo, and Bale and Suarez.Put that into perspective. kellzfresh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
