The Mourinho Thread

[kellzfresh 7,229]

I'm really starting to suspect supporter is a troll.

Why???

He's just a very passionate fan who gives us all a lift in the way he cheers for the club.

I thought so too at first, but you need to read his other posts more often, not only the repetitive Mourinho ones.

well. that felt really awkward to read. i think i chose to call someone a Troll on here once who obviously wasn't in the end and i felt like a pleb. Supporter is cute in a Lil B type of way

No way. He posts many intricate things on the forum. His Spanish league knowledge is incredibly broad and very helpful when we talk about players. Eg Koke.

I think I'm very different from a troll ... I am a unconditional fan of Chelsea. If we win, I defend Chelsea, If we draw, I defend Chelsea and if we lose, I defend Chelsea.

Many of us are fans of Chelsea whatever happens.

I accept the criticism of anyone obviously, but these criticisms should be constructive / helpful, not to destroy everything we are building.

This year we have chances to win two trophies and sometimes it seems that our season is rubbish.

I respect your opinion about me but I can not be agree ...

I think should not be confused being a troll with being a unconditional fan.

I think we should be together whatever happens.

Regards.

Honestly, I only really see you posts in here and they seem to have the same format with the same pictures.

Apologies, amigo :tophat:

At first i suspected Supporter is Kevin Ashburner with a new account to be honest

[bababoom 4,478]

IMO Supporter is the best member on the site atm, always positive and keeps things in perspective when we drop points. His knowledge is impressive especially when talking about La Liga. The guys passionate and i like that.

There is a fine line between staying positive and turning into TY the Arsenal fan from Arsenal Fan TV

And he has not crossed said line.

Mariner: Chelsea have been hard done by refs

Shaka Hislop and Stuart Holden talked so much BS in that video. No wonder no one takes their pundits seriously (except for Marcotti, Honigstein and Lowe).

by the way, were not u the guy who said something along the line of "fuck jose blah blah blah" just after the line ups came out for the league cup final. well, it puts things into perspective.

Mourinho on integrating young players into the first team...

http://www.theguardian.com/football/2015/mar/21/jose-mourinho-chelsea-youth-fa-cup-final-hull

“If they are good enough and if they are ready, yes,” he said. “It is important but this club is very demanding. It is a club where it is not easy to play football. The level of demand is high. The pressure is big. It is not the same to play in a club where people just accept a so-so performance, or a so-so result or people accept that you finish fifth, sixth, seventh or eighth. This is not the best habitat for a young player to be developed. It is not the best one.”

“For a player to play in the Chelsea first team, they must be ready,” Mourinho said. “There is no space with this level of demand and responsibility and pressure, there is no space for a player that is not ready. For example, when did I play Solanke? I played Solanke while winning 5-0 against Maribor, in a competition where we qualified easily in the group phase. I cannot play Solanke against Southampton with 30 minutes to go and the score at 1-1. I can’t.”

But when can they play? “I work them, I bring them to the first-team squad every day when I feel the level is almost there, to try to make the player ready,”

Can agree and understand where he's coming from. However, on the other hand, can't help but to feel he's talking BS at the same time. His idea that you can't really integrate youth players into the first team when you're challenging at the very top every year seems nonsensical. United (under Ferguson), Barcelona and Bayern Munich have always challenged for the big honours every year and yet, that hasn't stop them from bringing young players through. Also, curious to know his definition of 'ready'. Does he mean like ready ready OR ready only when he feels there's no risk in the game/the game has been won for the player to come on for the last 5/10 minutes? Maybe I'm just being highly skeptical of his poor/average record in promoting academy player but it feels almost as if he explained all of that just to make himself look less bad on that front.

Well he's jus making those comments just to downplay any fail chances he gives to RLC next season.

Like I said, all talk and no show this men when it comes to youth.

I think it's genuine words what he says. I can also understand it because not only the club has high demands but Mourinho himself wants to win titles as well.

My opinion is that he is overly cautious though. No one said that RLC needs to play vs Southampton on 1-1 score to integrate him. He could however play some minutes against Hull City for example...
