The Mourinho Thread

Recommended Posts

Im starting to doubt in decision of appointing Mou.

We play defensive football

He benched Mata, Azpi

He didnt bought proper striker and midfielder

He bought Willian for 30mio despite already having several players in that position (Kdb, Hazard, Oscar, Mata, Moses, Schurrle)

He loaned out Moses and Lukaku

He isnt giving Kdb enough playtime

Our team looks lost in games

We dont play attractive football

---

I hope it was just everton game, but overall we have team that can play brilliant attacking football and Mourinho is blocking that. Why should we stop with lead 1-0 when we can score couple more?? So far, I blame Mou for not playing attractive football, not trusting our young players and benching Mata/prefering Oscar instead.

4 Month since he is here.

We'll be champions.

1- Today he replaced a RB with a CF.

2- Azi is far from being a superb full back, Ivanovic was always the best option.

3/4- Etoo is a fine striker, and you said we have many players in position, so why are you talking about not buying a proper midfielder?

4- Moses was shit and Lukaku is raw.

5- Kdb is not a world class player, so not giving him enough playtime is not a sin.

I remember that time he bought on Ivanovic for Azpilicueta when we were chasing a game!

Yea. like- for- like subs we're our thing back then.

Now its 5-3-2 from 4-2-3-1..Thats one of the positive points from the last match- the versatility in our attack with a strong defense. Everton just got lucky yesterday

Why does he play a backline with Terry and Ivanovic as right back.

I'm still disappointed we didn't give a chance at Benitez as we had a good foundation and two three players, one striker, central midfielders, the loanees back and we could have challenged for the title this year.

There was much more dynamism in our back 6 last year, more movements, players pushing to break midfield oppositon line, opening angle passes, more triangles, good patterns in the runs to stretch defenses.

I knew what the plan was during the matches, this year I have not this feeling so far. Just more caution, waiting game like against Manchester United where it was boring to see us not trying to attack them.

I think avb is better than mourihno now. Game seems to of gone past mourihno and he seems mentally ill now. Doubt hes our coach next season

1 defeat and AVB is suddenly better than Mourinho?! He's lost it and mentally ill?!!

I just hope he stays for 4-5 years at least, it will mean some overall evolution to the club and everyone around. Some ppl just got this obsession from our recent past, that if we not win, we need radical changes and the manager is the first victim. When Jose came, I thought people will act smarter and judge his work proper, knowing who he is.

After watching everton and chelsea match yesterday i wounder has jose lost the plot.His substitutions were puzzling bringing on another 30 plus player lampard as he has played a number of matches lately and travelled with the england team to ukraine surely there were more younger and fresher players on the bench to come on?.Lampard has being a great player for chelsea but now he is being overplayed at this moment in his mid thirties also there seemed to be a sign of desperation in taking off ashley cole and putting on two strikers also why? is azpilicueta not playing at right back instead of ivanovic as he is most suited to centre back instead of that error prone luiz.

Why buy young talented players and never play them they will become disillusioned with the club surely he is not going to throw them on in a champions league match as the time to try them out is the premier league? I think jose needs to take a hard look at the old guard and figure out are they really up to it now.

True blue since the late sixties. :D

My biggest concern is that Mou is not attacking minded coach, but Mata, Hazard etc would play best under someone who is. As for midfielder, we are over loaded in CAM/LW/RW, but we should buy hard working DM Witsel/Vidal/...instead of Willian.

Hope I am wrong, but I want Chelsea to play attacking football; something nice to watch and Mou wont be able to give that. He will bring trophies etc, but for the cost of attractive game.

Just dont want us to do an Arsenal.Play decent pretty pretty football and yet spend every season trying to finish 4th and not reslly get anywhere with the football played.Find a balance between the two that works and brings result etc which hopefully can do

I think the supposed "attractive game" is over-rated. Arsenal back in 2009 and Barcelona for me aren't even pleasing on the eye to me, i think passing the ball around in traingles isn't that good to watch and personally i love watching teams who will force opponents into submission (Chelsea 2005-2010, Madrid).

I hate this perception of good football, there's a lot more ways of good football than just tika taka.
