The Mourinho Thread

[The Skipper 20,593]

He won't get sacked, I feel like we're going to stick with Jose at least until the end of the season. This is very unacceptable though.

[MrBlueGuy 1,552]

No thanks to Carlo again.

If it comes to it and he's sacked just wait the season out and see if we can persuade Pep to come. Only manager I'd have to replace José. He's someone who has a set philosophy, is loved by both players and the media, and is classy. I'd want someone completely different than Mourinho. Pep would immediately make us a more respected club and he'd do wonders with Hazard. Give him a long contract and any money he wants to reshape our team.

Tbh he is also known to be not a fan of biggest ego which could mean immediate departure for Terry and maybe Costa because he doesn't fit the style as shown with his time with Spain team. I agree though Pep will be a much better choice than Mourinho, when we lose he won't do undignified things like this guy we got atm. You can guarantee he won't go quietly if he is sacked.

too many players badmouth him and say he's a completely classless manager. I'd stick with Klopp, but I haven't given up on José yet. I'm deeply disappointed though

Simeone would be awesome, but he's happy at Atletico, so Klopp or Anceloti.

Btw. NIGEL PEARSON COULD HELP US ESCAPE RELIGATION!!!!!/

Ancelotti is a poor manager... simple as that. He's a gentleman, polite, nice, but horrible tactician, he stopped in time and he would actually be a downgrade in terms of tactics although I'm sure he'd make the atmosphere good again. But those atmosphere changes are just for very, very, very short time (months) and then the shortcomings start popping up.

I know playing Iva is ridiculous, but we have no idea how Baba is going to fit in - or if he will. Not using Luís properly last season - which led him to want to go, is José biggest mistake regarding our FBs. All Chelsea fans thinking Baba is the answer or salvation, show how desperate we are. I agree, it's hard to be worse than Iva, it doesn't mean there will be real improvement with Baba. Mourinho made an assessment mistake with Luís AND a bigger one with Iva.

Ancelotti is on par with Jose and Pep what are you on about? He won the CL 3 times. I'd rather want Klopp but just don't slate Carlo he's a world-class manager.

[Fernando 6,453]

I think this has shown us something.

That Mourinho ain't the best thing since slice bread.

For years on fans wanted the return of Mourinho.

Every result past managers had was compared against his previous reign.

And thus non was ever deemed worthy...

But after coming back he truly has tarnish his legacy and shown us that he was nothing that great.

He is a good manager in the bracket of Carlo and Hiddink but nothing worth dying for or even say let's have him for a decade.

If anything it has shown us that we can easily due without him and have the club pursue other managers that will fit their profile.

Attractive playing and more youth development.

Sadly we will never get that with Mourinho. He is not for that style and will never be, this has proved it.

Best thing we can do is wait till December or if we can wait till the end of the season.

After that period of time club needs to make sure they have someone with the same philosophy and the only name i have is Klopp.

So if by December or end of the season we have no truly genuine progress, show this man the door.

[Eidur the Spider 4,515]

He's not going anywhere.

[Blue Armour 4,278]

Blame has to lie with him. One or two games can be down to individual mistakes, but 3 defeats in 5 is down to his selection. Either the board thought they were smart, or Mou is sticking with his favourites once again.

Not just that, but 13 goals conceded in 5 matches? That's just pathetic, considering we don't even have a style of play up front.

Hazard, Ivanovic, Fabregas, Costa, Terry, Matic...players that helped secure the title last season are all playing with their heads down and no confidence. This has got to go down to the manager. No one else. The stupid handling of that Carnerio system has only made things worse.

[TheIceMan 596]

Wait until we draw against Maccabi at home ...

We are losing this one a draw would be like a victory!

I'd want pure, attractive, attacking football. I want to tune into a Chelsea match and know exactly the type of football we're going to play each time. A team that sets out to dominate and know that they have the superior players. No counter attacking bullshit. I want to see possession based play.

It's gotta be Pep.

We'd have to sell most of our first team squad if Pep was to come as they wouldn't fit his philosophy

[Special Juan 27,424]

Good luck when Mr Abramovich's name lights up on your phone next time Jose lad.

[Blue Armour 4,278]

Only because, there's no ready replacement available on the market and we don't have an asst. manager with a bigger name. If this was RDM right now, he would have been gone right after the end of this match.

"We deserve more than what we got"

He's really lost the plot.

Watch city walk over Crystal palace now.

[didierforever 7,349]

OUR PLAYERS DID NOT GET WHAT THEY DESERVED

hahahahahahhahahahahahahahhahahah

I am not sure if Klopp is the solution.If I remember Dortmund last season,they were defensively as bad as we are right now,but at least,Klopp likes youth.

We need one coach,who sees that Iva and Terry are not good enough to play in the starting eleven

Ancelloti is better than any other manager that is available. He's not perfect but he's better than every epl manager bar Jose imo.

We used to play terrible and win.

Now we play terrible football and lose.

This is how I feel. We can't even park the bus. Davis Moyes and AVB were mocked for less

[Azul 1,615]

If he starts Ivanovic in the next EPL game then I've truly lost hope in Jose and I'd want him to leave after that. If Baba Rahman starts the next game and we play attacking footbal then there's still hope.

I'm not over José yet either but he's wearing thin even for me, his most ardant supporter.

Klopp I love but he's a little too similar in style to José. Just a slightly different kind of counter attacking. I want to dominate the ball and pass teams to death. Tired of watching dull as dish water football to be honest. Sick of relying on a monent of Magic from a single player to bail us out.

Also getting sick of the bad light Chelsea as a club is being painted in. We need an injection of class, style, and respectability.
