The Mourinho Thread

[Gappy 130]

If Jose can survive this crisis he'll be a Legend

I don't say that he'll be like SAF that pass the crisis at 1987 and got a lot of trophies

But if only he make through this crisis me myself will think he's Legend with no doubt

Cause i believe that one function to make him pass this crisis was changing his philosophy about football and tactics

If he continues to be stubborn and persists with the same players then he deserves everything he gets (and that includes a sacking). What sort of manager will put favoritism above the team. Unbelievable. I can't stand stubborn people/personalities.

He really is stubborn. Him playing basically the exact same line-up week in week out is ridiculous. I remember last season after that horrible game against Psg he basically played the exact same team the game after. He claimed he was showing his 'trust' in his players. I thought last season that what keeps Jose going is the trophies he wins, hoping that the Premier League would be enough to somehow get the old, ruthless Mourinho back. But maybe I was wrong, and the Premier League trophy only made him more arrogant, in a bad way. Some part of me still wants this to turn around and not have the managerial merry-go again, but as we all know, Jose is a captain of ships that are travelling steadily, not a captain of those that need to be steadied.

His stint at madrid was an indication that the old Mourinho was a thing of the past and his performance in his second tenure at Chelsea further strenghtens that theory.

In a way, this might be Jose's last chance at reparing his repuation after madrid and he's failing miserably at it.

what top club would want him if he gets fired or decides to leave? You can point to his winning record but the rest of the elite teams demand more than just winning. they want to win with style,dignity and respect. they want a continuation of the long standing philosophy and identity at their respective clubs, they also want a drama free atmosphere. all of which jose is incapable of providing.

Calling all Chelsea fans wankers because they disagree with you nice one. You can't see the wood for the trees that's your problem son. At the moment Mourinho looks like a frustrated father who's watching his kids under 10 team getting soundly beaten every week. And instead of facing up to his own inadequacies he's looking for scapegoats to blame.

The thing is I actually agree with what most are saying about his unjustifyable team selections and his non existent use of our youth.

But

To want him sacked!!!

Pathetic!

Calling everyone wankers was strong. I have to hold my hands up there and apologise but it angers me soo much to see our fans turn on Jose Mourinho. This is a man who has given us unforgettable memories (good ones). Yes he is making consistent mistakes thus far but we are only 5 games in... That's 5 flipping games.

It feels like this forum has turned into a Real Madrid forum or something.

Maybe I

Welp, guess we'll be doing the relegation battle then.

we are 17th.not even in relegation zone!!! party time... iva for another match!!!!

[didierforever 7,349]

how can people not understand a simple thing as this.

IT IS NOT ABOUT OUR POOR RESULTS IN THESE 6 GAMES. IT IS NOT ABOUT LOSING.

it is simply about the FACT, that jose is putting his love for certain players over the goodness of the club. how difficult is this to understand? i mean seriously.

[lionsden 4,689]

Here's a scary thought. What if Jose genuinely believes the crap he's been saying in his post match interviews that we have been playing well and creating chances but just unlucky. It's also possible that he doesn't think the performances of some key players is as bad as most people do.

For there to be a possibility of a turn around, the manager, first, has to concede that we have been absolutely dogshite and seek to identify the reason behind it. To me its either he recognises how bad we have been but too stubborn and clueless on How to fix it or he's completely delusional. Either way we are fucked.

what jose is doing currently, i can do that.

keep choosing the same team and players again and again and again, and magically hope for things to be fine.

Wow who would have thought all players have to defend?! And that our problems are not just in D!

W have players in poor form, but their mistakes are made worse by the lack of teamwork. Or their collective lack of form is hurting teamwork - goes both ways.

We were in the same situation 2 seasons back. Luiz got replaced by Gary in D and nothing really changed until the protection got sorted eventually.

Point being is that the selection is less important than the unity, tactics, and teamwork. Sort that and even ivanovic will perform better. Sometimes replacing a player in bad form hurts unity because the other players may think they are next... Sometimes that's a good thing sometimes it isn't - spec when confidence is low.

I don't know if ppl around here are that naive to think that with a sub here and there, or by bringing Moses back, we'd be top of the league, but I suspect it's just wishful thinking. Thankfully football is bit more nuanced than that.

read the above post man.

it would hurt the team unity. forget the fact that our players wont put in any fight cos players like remy, baba, RLC would already know what their fate would be in team selection. forget the fact that someone like moses would currently be a better player to be on pitch than willian or hazard in this form, and forget the fact that people would simply stop fighting for their places in the team when they know irrespective of everything, what the starting 11 is.

we should simply play the same 11 so as not to hurt the "confidence".

i guess einstien was a MORON wrapped in an idiot.

What an unfortunate and disrespectful comment towards Eva.
