The Mourinho Thread

[didierforever 7,349]

Say Jose goes... Would you expect a lot of changes from the next manager?

I bet a very similar line up - yes with ivanovic in the starting XI - will be employed.

You heard it here first... Will bookmark this one.

IF someone like pochettino can take over, play the youth, integrate them, even if it means, no european/CL football for a year, i am fine.

where are we going with cesc and iva in the team? where is this team going currently?

A draw is as bad as a loss. It has not benefited us. Anyway, I don't criticise Mourinho on here anyway. My point was that people got too excited against two average teams. The Arsenal win was a big victory but was it down to Mourinho or the ref? Not sure. Us getting a point does not hide our flaws tbh.

Well you can't deny the improvement since the Everton game. Today, we've managed to get a point at our's hardest away venue in England. First point at St James' Park since 2011/12 season. Mourinho is trying his best to improve our squad and he rightly deserves the January transfer window to bolster the squad. He needs to get rid of Iva.

Do people seriously believe that the players lack desire and hunger? What type arm-chair psychology nonsense is this?

You think that during the games against Arsenal and Tele Aviv we magically found our long lost heart and desire and then we lost it again against Newscastle ? Lol!

That is no improvement. That was one of our worse first halves ever. Also Everton are better than Newcastle and even Watford won at SJP. We should have won this, no questions about it. Just because we have a bad record there that does not mean a point is acceptable. We are the Champions and bar Costa and Courtois have our best team available. They had their first two LB injured. Cisse injured, Tiote injured and we only managed a point. Nah, not good enough.

We can't continue like this, something has to give. He has taken the team backward and shows no signs of improving or learning from his mistakes. His team selections and tactics have been absolutely horrendous this season.

If we fail to act now (by firing him), we could be in serious danger of not finishing in the top 4.

is that a yes or a no ,, you usually have plenty to say ,, how did you rate todays game

[couris 232]

He destroyed this team. Sold Mata/KDB/Luiz and never replaced them. No excuses.

unai emery for me.

We lost this game because we were poor tactically. That is all!

well , if they know they will play no matter what , or wont play. (someone else said this) , then obviously the desire will not be 100%

Ivanovic has blackmailed Mourinho

We refused to press in the entire first half, kept on giving the ball back to newcastle and wasted 45mins on the pitch.

We're really terrible in our attacking play. Mourinho doesn't practice attacking movement, I would have noticed a pattern by now if he did.

they are the bottom of the fucking league for chriisake.. that is I think the most goals they have scored in a game

Look at the naivety of Football Fans. So blind, so dependant on results. There are people on the internet who are actually claiming this was a good result.

One thunder-cunt from Ramires, and a lucky cross from Willian on a day where we showed no offensive quality when there was no individual brilliance.

He got away with it today. The question is, how long is this gonna last?

Some people truly believe he's the only chance we have of winning.

They are willing to put up with all the shit football and the problems he creates for that reason.

We finally agree on something..

I'd be fine with that too but the point being is that to get results at this time he needs the senior players to get their shit together and another coach under same pressure would do the same. It's still likely they will improve enough to get a top 4 but we are indeed wasting time with certain players who are over the hill.

Too late now though as you need to fix that in the transfer window.

So do you believe that they lost desire to win against our first three opponents in the PL, then found it again against Arsenal,Tel Aviv and the League Cup Opponent, THEN lost it again against Newcastle? Come on man.

We've been stale in every facet of the game, and that problem didn't start this season, we saw it during the second half of last season as well. It's up to Mourinho revamp the team but I'm not too sure he's capable of doing it. We've all seen this with Mourinho before. Remember the 3 season "curse"? That's why the blame lies squarely on him.

The last 2 teams are pathetic , and we could get by without top desire , and we actually rotated , so the new players actually showed spirit
