The Mourinho Thread

[Etoo fils 45]

It's too late now, Chelsea won't be on CL next year. We have to accept it.

I'm not worried about championship, we will become better.

Just keep Mourinho, and start to prepare next season.

I can only tell so much of that tale, Spike would kill me [emoji55]

Stop crashing the Pepe economy you fucking normie.

Who cares what others think of us. We've done so well for so many years, they're finally getting a chance to give some back. Let them have their few months, because when we come back, it'll be that much sweeter.

do you think we'll come back? :'(

[ZOS 580]

I can neither forgive nor blame Jose for all this... there's just so much we don't know right now and that is the most frustrating thing of our situation ... I think it will take us a couple of years to fully recover

Just imagine against Stoke we had a player like Modric instead of Ramires.

Most of the time Ramires can't pass the ball correctly, can't run a few meters with the ball. Ramires and Oscar are our problems.

There are midfielders that you watch them play during a whole season and you never see a wrong pass from them. You never see them miss a ball during the season. Now look at these two.

Jose Mourinho sat on a wall,

Jose Mourinho had a great fall;

All the CFC's horses and all the CFC's men

Couldn't put Jose together again

[Miki-Liki 405]

Lets not forget last season so fast shall we?

We shall cherish the memory of that title when we play London derbies against QPR, Fulham and Brentford next season.

Ramires is colour blind, hence, it is difficult for him to know who are his team mates, let alone doing it while running

I wonder what Jose is telling the players now. We played better, everything will come good?

What are experienced players like Terry, Cahill, Begovic, Fabregas, Costa really thinking about the current situation?

They have seen a lot, are some words enough?

What can we do better next time, keep faith?

[Rhino's Skin 972]

Sickening. How many more defeats does he and all those naive sentimental matchgoers need to realize the plague that Mourinho's infecting the club? .

yup...have a pop at those that spend thousands of pounds watching the club week in, week out ( and there is a good percentage who been through all the bad times before and are just grateful we have our fantastic moments )......their opinion is naive....of course it is....doh!!!!

We're 16th, one spot above the relegation places FFS and have been humiliated by basement boys like So'ton, Crystal Palace at home, not to mention all the pitiful away results. Di Matteo and AVB were sacked for less compared to this tactically impotent and charmless narcissistic turd. At this rate, I'm starting to think there will still be those kind of headlines, where he's still got support even though the likes of Bournemouth and Sunderland are above us and we're sitting comfortably at 18th or 19th place.

that's the spirit boy! keep it up

Naah, he's propably searching on Ebay for this kind of thing:

Still massively worrying what is happening right now and I am not sure were the next win is coming from. Despite the win in midweek in the CL there were still signs that massive improvement is needed, and now the much annoying international break (Well for me anyway). I thought there was some bright sparks in the Stoke game, we played some good football but alarming once again is how easy teams cut through us and play around us when we don't have the ball. I also think when it's not going for you, chances like Hazard's just deflecting around the post go in in other circumstances and Remy stays balanced and slots home, just daft little things are just not happening.

Following the international break sees what some would say a fairly generous run of fixtures, right now, and the way we are playing, I'm not so sure. Anyone can beat us, anyone. Norwich will come and just try and frustrate us and the following that an absolute nightmare of a game against Spurs who are playing really well at the moment, so I really struggle to see a positive outcome. Still we sit here on another Monday and Jose is still here. I'm glad he hasn't been sacked, I don't want him sacked, what I want is the players to raise their game to a level that we aren't relying on luck or the odd mad deflection to win the game, we need to see some comfortable wins and good football, that for me is the only way our confidence will come back.

As fans I still remain adamant that we were massively short changed in the summer transfer window, massively. That's were I point the finger directly at Mourinho/the board, it wasn't acceptable in any shape or form. When you win the title you don't just sit on your hands and hope that the following campaign everything is sweetness and light, you make an impact and go again. I have no doubt that we will probably buy in the January panic window, but that's just as a result of a shit summer window and as ever in January we will be limited who wants to come in our current situation and who will be available.

Lots for the board and Mourinho to consider, right now I am very fucking worried.

That's what happened when you put players that don't have technical quality all over the midfield and attack of a big club like us.

Players who have high technical ability should be prioritized in our team for this to stop.

Look at Barcelona, Madrid, bayern and even psg their defenders are better passers than our midfielders.

Modric would probably flop under Mourinho or thinly used, in fact that is exactly what happened at Madrid. In his first year the Spanish media labeled Modric a flop.

People complain about Ramires or any other player, but the only reason he is still at Chelsea is because of Mourinho. He wouldn't be here if he was saldomly used or wasent valued by Mourinho.

Mourinho didn't trust him in midfield, only played him in advanced positions. What a big mistake that turned out be.

True. Mourinho has a different vision of a great team. I'll never forget the infamous Alonso-Pepe-Khedira midfield.

None of us mere mortals on the outside know for sure but "reports" are that Mourinho put in his request for certain players and/or certain positions to be filled.

It looks as if the board let him down in that respect.....i.e. Stones should have been a straight in 35m bid instead of all the mucking about and posturing which gave Everton time to counter and the media plenty of stories to stick their nose in.

Not a fan of the January window but if we do manage to get one or two high profile signings, then the old cliche of 'hitting the ground running' will never be so true as then

Not really. Jose didn't use Modric well at Madrid either.

LMAO who could forget those Iniesta-Busquets-Xavi vs Alonso-Pepe-Khedira midfield battles.

Then you look at Madrid bench seeing Ozil and Modric on the bench.

That's why I dont see us changing whilst he is still in control

His version of the game is more about effort than skill - his perfect result is 1-0

We just don't have the players to enforce that and I'm not comfortable with that direction in our play

Mourinho was brought back to adopt an attacking style of play. He has failed, how anybody can argue against that I will never know.

And what's worse is that we now have no attack and no defence either.

I get he is loved by the fans blah blah but any other club would have dispensed with his services by now and IMHO I think keeping him for a minute longer is a bigger mistake by the Board.

This notion that CPO and love for Mou is intertwined smacks of complete farce to me. If fans are so fickle as to vote 'NO' on the CPO because Mourinho was 'rightly' sacked - then can they be considered true Chelsea fans, surely the club is sacrosanct?

I get the transfer window argument - but this is the team that Mou took credit for in winning last years title. Maybe the loss of Drog and Big Pete in the dressing room was more powerful than first suspected...
