The Mourinho Thread

[Special Juan 28,090]

When someone announces themselves as 'special one' you can bet your bottom dollar the ego will always bigger than the club they manage.....It's all about them.

Agent Jose reporting for duty.

Set the stopwatch, grab the popcorn. Players from Inter, Real, Utd will be on their WhatsApp groups with Sp*rs players telling them how it was -and can't see Levy opening the purse strings

Very odd appointment. It really is a step down from Poch to Jose. Jose will try and be a good boy for the 1st year or so like he always does but watching the chaos that will inevitably ensue when he and Levy collide over transfers should be pure comedy. Mourinho is washed at the top level.  Since 2012, the only meaningful title he's won is the Premier league with us which Hazard carried him to. (I was watching some old matches from that season just a few weeks ago and the football was shocking, much worse than I remembered). Hazard gave everything including his body that 2nd half of that season, create, score, assist, ball carry, start attacks, track back.... It probably cost him physically the following season with some others as well.

Mourinho also won a Europa league with United albeit with a ridiculously easy run, they faced no one throughout the tournament. 

As for expecting loyalty from Jose towards us. Maybe this will take his blind acolytes among us down a peg..... oh they're still out there. Mourinho does NOT GIVE A FLYING FUCK about us. He's all about his ego and self preservation. How some still don't understand that is beyond me but some have their idols they've already made to infallible gods i guess.

Mourinho - "The quality in both the squad and the academy excites me. Working with these players is what has attracted me."

Academy?

The squad is quality, I think better then us. Can easily get to another Cl final.

Can easily do the same. With Kane top, you can grab goals then defend and hit them in the counter. A good way to get to another final in a cup game.

Another case of suddenly overrating the opposition, are we? How about we see how Spurs do under Mourinho first, aye?

Mourinho hasn't been into the CL final since that win with Inter and hasn't even gone past the R16 since 2014! Since winning the CL, he's been knocked out by Barcelona (SF - 2011), Bayern (SF - 2012), Dortmund (SF - 2013), Atletico (SF - 2014), PSG (R16 - 2015), Sevilla (R16 - 2018).

He got KOed by a struggling, average Sevilla last year (went on to rant about heritage and all that) and then before that, he decided to park the bus against 10 men and duly got KOed on away goals!

Mourinho's teams are built to defend; this team cannot do that, so...

THey will have their honeymoon come shortly.....no doubting that at all. Expect FA to help them out too. But over time the cracks will open up.

Spurs given him 4 years contract? At double the wages Poch got? Levy is just a slimebag man.
