The Mourinho Thread

I want us to meet Madrid in Champion's League and crush them

[ZOS 580]

Is this the sexiest team Jose has ever put together? My god, Chelsea is playing some beautiful stuff. I'm so glad

The fans love Mou, as do the players. These guys would kill for him

there should be a little bit more praise because the pragmatic and conservative manager has got us at the top of the league for 17 matchweeks now... out of 17.

Yes there should. Even if 17 out of 17 was not quite true

[Barbara 15,149]

well, we were first except for the second or third round don't remember when Spurs had a better GD, the thing is, we were there

[MrBlueGuy 1,552]

Lets go for the quadruple we are clearly capable of it even though it is near on impossible. Becoming the first ever manager in Premier League football history to do so

One thing in particular I love about that interview with Mou is how he mentioned people having short term memory when it comes o football its practically impossible to have a comment more true than that

Jose Mourinho should leave us alone... hopefully we'll face Chelsea in Europe, says leading Real Madrid figure

Mourinho recently criticised Real Madrid's first team stars by saying he had missed being in love with his players during his time at the Santiago Bernabeu.

And his latest remark appears to have angered a senior Real Madrid star. Speaking to Marca, the unnamed player said: 'Hopefully we'll face him in the Champions League. If we reach the final, here's hoping it's against Chelsea. Then we'll do our talking.

'a senior Real Madrid star', guess who?

He got it wrong today with the line up. I understand that we had to freshen up the team due to the hectic schedule but soto have the best/2nd best defensive record in the league and we usually struggle against defensively resilient teams. this was not the game to play Schurle and Mikel. Heck those two would have been better off playing against westham instead.

Tactically and logically it was not the right thing to do. It was too little too late in the end. I also felt Remy should have been introduced much earlier instead of Drogba and Costa should ahve been taken off as he was having a poor game and adding nothing to the attack.

The momentum is firmly in City's court now and they show no signs of stopping.

No. People always bitch about the lineup, no matter what.

[lucio 5,418]

no way we hang onto a 1 point lead. they are better all over the pitch

Looks that way unfortunately - luckily for them they've had an easy run of games so all their strikers being injured hasn't made any difference at all.

We've had what seems like a great first half of the season and yet City are only 1 point behind which is worrying.

[MrExcalibur100 7,124]

That's one of his faults, Jose. Messing up the starting XI. But in theory, the line-up made some sense today. It's the lack of decisive changes which is unlike Mourinho. Drogba shouldn't be coming on before Remy, he just shouldn't. His close control and passing for one is not up to scratch with the rest of the team. The ball was bouncing off him like crazy. Also Mikel should have been off earlier, as should have been the below par Costa, though I understand why Jose persisted with him. And Oscar should have at least been on the bench (though he's another who has been average recently).

Still what can you do when the ref is a fucking slime ball cheating cunt? Not much.
