The Mourinho Thread

[SinineUltra 1,170]

But he's in the position to coach attacking strategies in training. The fact is that as a coach, Mourinho has shown little evidence he knows how to do that. And this again was his main downfall.

Going by that logic, I've got a question for you - were you a straight A student in school? Because I'm sure your teachers gave it their all in the class room.

[Sastha 21]

Totally agree with him

The PL is an attraction in itself. I'm not bothered in the slightest where JM goes in all honesty, I'm more bothered about were our next 3 points are coming from. Along with the players he's created this mess whether people like it or not.

I agree. But those two guys will likely have City and United, possible CL clubs, as destinations. Not us.

Okay then, fuck Jose.

Any chance Eva coming back

With any luck, no.

Surprised me there with this somewhat abrupt decision - I thought he was going to last till next summer.

Thanks for all the good memories and excitement, Jose Mourinho.

But things were not working out as they should and enjoy the break before your next job.

Meanwhile, I would like to see the club appoint a manager who will allow the attacking players express themselves more instead of the endless back-tracking and with more youth players involved in first team action. The likes of Willian and Pedro will attack more and score more goals from now onwards, I am sure of that.

Fuck Eva. Attention seeker.

The club’s focus is now on ensuring our talented squad reaches its potential.

that was my only issue with him ever

The bed is made for a terrible season. The interim manager will be criticised left and right for the smallest of mistakes and most of the fanbase is against the players since Mourinho apparently can do no wrong. This is going to be a hell of a ride.

[A Wise Man 10]

Totally agree with him

Newsflash: We are in catastrophe - an unprecedented one for decades. That's why he has been sacked.

Do we keep the 'next manager' convo in this thread?

I dont think we should ,, it would be disrespectful

Thanks for everything, Jose....again! You will always be remembered and loved as a Chelsea legend.

That said, the reactions are completely irrational, but I guess that was always bound to be the case. It's been for some time a matter of when and not if, with the most optimistic guesses being that he will be sacked at the end of the season. Regardless of how much actual blame you think is on Jose, as the manager he will always take the responsibility.

The new manager (hopefully Hidink not that other guy whom I've never heard of before) will likely raise morale and get the team playing better in the short term, but in no way are our problems solved. We need major changes in the starting XI in the summer.

Why are some of you sad that he's gone? After the shit you said about him, I'd think you would be celebrating.

Because the club is number one priority.

We always want the club to do well no matter who is here.

It was not good with Mourinho and thus we are relieved he is gone because it means we can move forward.

But we are sad because after the club we appreciate the human being, the work that he did in the past.

Any chance Eva coming back ?

She will.

Next month.
