The Mourinho Thread

[Roquila 1,335]

He said he cannot guarantee the top 4 finish. Thats something you would expect from a mediocre manager from a mediocre team.

Pretty pathetic.

Earlier this season he said he can guarantee top 4......... Now he can't.

WTF

[Muzchap 8,966]

He called himself the special one. The team won the league months ago, the man hilself keep saying he is a fantastic coach and he has a fantastic squad, months ago he also won the most important trophy of his career (League Cup), so how a fantastic manager with fantastic squad, go from being Champions to out of Champions League football?

Nice you have changed your mind, but what you said doesn't make any sense. You want him to stay "no matter how bad it gets this season", because the team "would look even worse" if he leaves. So, if the team is on the botton of the league, how in the hell can things get worse than that?

The only reason to keep Mourinho is the belief he would turn things around. Keeping his job "no matter how bad it gets this season" doesn't make any sense. Most people who want Mourinho to stay believe he must stay, no matter the results. Thats pretty zealous, if you ask me.

Never let facts spoil a love story

yet the negative members DONATE to the running costs of the forum while the positive ones hold on to their cash ...

Nice generalization, there is only black and white...

Instead of finding a good argument to stick it to him you prefer to go down a different path.

Difficult to beat him in a fair and square discussion, isn't it?!

The dude already explained to you why he couldn't come up with the cash in time.

Humanity isn't just a simple word...

Anyway, i have just seen the new press conference and Mourinho looked calm and i liked his answers. He showed respect to Klopp, fair play.

Can't wait till the match starts...

'Chelsea must stick with Jose Mourinho. I hope he stays 10 more years' says Damien Duff

“Two years ago at Stamford Bridge I was coming out into the tunnel and he [Mourinho] saw me and gave me a hug and a kiss,” Duff says. “He said a couple of words in my ear and I went out there and had probably the best half of football I had all season. And he’s not even my manager.

Someone who actually has worked with Jose and knows him behind the cameras has spoken again. Yet people will only believe lazy journalists who make up things to get sensational headlines and clicks.

lol just Mourinho being Mourinho, he is standing up for the team pointing out the positives from the game, but the journalist just keeps asking negative questions, of course Mourinho will act in defensive mode. That´s just how he is, he will never change and i´m used to it, the guy has delivered wherever club he´s been, many may not agree with me of course, but i like the man just how he is, himself and not what other managers, fans, pundits, media, etc want him to be. A leopard never changes its spots. Cheers

Honestly, that's just Mourinho being a dick.

The questions were NOT negative, they were completely normal and justifiable questions. "Are you disappointed with the goal you conceded?" and "Are you disappointed that your team failed to score against 10 men in overtime?". I bloody hope that his inwards answer to both are "Yes, very much" or we're in more trouble than I though. What did he expect the reporter would say after we just got eliminated from the cup? "Congrats Jose, are you happy with the character of your team today?"!

Also, it's very perplexing to read you saying that Jose always stands up for his team. That used to be true, but this season alone he's thrown several individuals and the entire team under the bus when his decisions and tactics have been brought into question while arrogantly maintaining that he's "the best manager this team has ever had".

What is there to believe from this , other than he kissed duff?

[xPetrCechx 13,563]

Can u imagine how he felt during Leicester match last season? In the same night his father went in brain surgery.

He said he didn't know about it till after the game...

[Azul 1,615]

I'm going to do a 180 and say that he should stay atleast until the end of the season. It's too late to get rid of Jose, let's just wait patiently and see what he does. I still think that he is not fit to be our manager though. We'll have better options as managers in the summer. I'm fine with suffering this season in order to get more success in the coming years.

I was afraid fabregas has been blackmailing him. Fabregas would have died against Klopps high pressing

2 months late!!!! but none the less, we are there!!!

[Adnane 1,101]

He is getting better, not playing out of form players, keeping his cool in post and pre match conferences.

Something must have been said to him after the West Ham game.

ONE OF US !

[Sir Mikel OBE 4,919]

Finally dropped Fabregas.

Today is where he might begin to turn it around.

[KevinAshburner 1,270]

Thanks for everything Jose Mourinho. Bye bye
