[Special Juan 27,385]

Mourinho is seriously delusional. He seems convinced that he should have won every game. Saw his comments earlier and he was moaning how United shouldn't have lost at Feyenoord, Fenerbahce etc because they had the game under control bla bla bla.

He is just proud of himself that his team dominates possession, thinks this is all there is to it to control a game.

Freezing cold in Eastern Europe mate need 20 seconds to get my hands out of my gloves then my fingers are of no use anymore haha

I honestly dont know what happened to him. Jose used to be masterful at building a squad. He knew exactly what type of players to get for each role and he was also amazing at making that player believe he was great at doing what he had to do. Just look how long our Chelsea squad lasted and how similar from 2010-12 Real Madrid still is.

Nowadays it seems he just buys the flavour of the month without a proper plan. Ibra is good? Sign him! Pogba is available? Break the bank! Never doing so with a plan in mind.

It's amusing how often he moaned about we didn't deserve to lose last season on the basis of a good 10-15 minutes spell in second half of matches.

The same thing that happened to Van Gaal, Cappello and many other managers in time.

[Jase 43,479]

It's amusing that the only time Mourinho has been able to blow his trumpet this season is after United win a Europa League game. And his latest stance is that no one has been playing better than them in their last few matches. For someone who usually cares more about results than performances, he sure has moaned a lot about how his team's performances have not produced the results.

[Special Juan 27,385]

Heard his comments this morning....saying how it was the complete performance and they were immense.

OK Jose

Hope Spurs give him a bad time this weekend...

 

Would love to see him in the witchhunt Van Gaal was in last year.

Wow, Mourinho is becoming the Donald Trump of football. He worries so much about what others say about him and so insecure that can't resist to respond, even if its a lie.

The BBC have brought into the propaganda of United dominating and being unlucky, went to check the score at half time (when it was 0-0) and the headline was "Manchester United dominating in Zorya"

To be fair they were completely dominant, but as so many times this season they couldn't stick it in the onion bag

The epl was worse back then, which is why he looked so good. Never was a fan of him.

TBF, United did dominate Zorya, as FB has said. It's just that they didn't create many clear opportunities - their play was pretty ordinary - and it took until a moment of brilliance from Mkhitaryan to break the deadlock.

I know we all criticize Mourinho these days but TBF, he was really good between 2004 and 2010. 'Worse' is the wrong word to describe the Premier League back then. It still has its qualities during those days (remember how the English teams always reach the semi finals and finals in UCL?) but it's just less competitive when you compare it to now. Football has changed from that period, but sadly, Mourinho hasn't changed.

Jose Mourinho says Man Utd deserve more points in the Premier League

Jose Mourinho says it is "unfair" that Manchester United have collected fewer points in the Premier League and is adamant their rivals are not better than his side.

When will he ever learn that all the constant crying and moaning will not get him those lost points?

[bluephoenix 1,126]

It is painful to actually watch Mourinho's press conferences/talks.  It was painful enough when he was with us but now it is even more ...

His tactics will never get him anywhere, when Mourinho is heading a team and their team has 1 goal lead. You can always count on the fact they will concede in the dying minutes of the match. I had that feeling last week and they drew and I was soooo happy.

Like someone said, it is hard to  accept the words performance from his mouth. He is result oriented and if anything he can't be easily out coached. He is in some way boring with his tactics and strategy.

He gets really good players in his first season in and any club, gets them to play their best then second season comes bam, everyone realize that he has no plan on how to move forward. Starts his usual moaning in the media to mask poor results, then moves to blasting his players.

Typical Mourinho.

Theres no reason why Yernited couldn't go on 10 match unbeaten run. Who'd have thought we would win 8 on the bounce after the gooner and bindipper debarcles ? Man U have the players to do that, and Jose seems to have found his team now.

I don't think they will, and more than that I fucking hope they implode - but I'd be wary of taking the piss too much out of Mourinho, like some here.
