Pizy 19,379 Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Possession is overratedIf we had those stats against Bayern the football world would once again scorn us and call us enemies to the sport.Real Madrid do it in BOTH legs and are praised and lauded. This is exactly how José wants to mold our side.I can imagine that countless hack journalists are creaming themselves and salivating at the thought of RM winning the CL. "Did in his first season what Mourinho failed to do in three," they'll say. Never mind the fact that he'll have done it with José's squad and over £100m in transfers.If we beat the odds and win the thing I hope José just stares directly into the camera silently smiling for 30 seconds straight and then walks away.

I prefer see jose as the best manager in the world for winning 3 UCL titles with 3 different clubsbut yes, lets focus on Atletico Madrid first!

Nike 373 Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 I'm really excited to see how the team will shape up in the summer. I hope we bring in an established CM and a CF. Also, I'm looking for ake, chaloboah and kalas to get year long loans next season in the EPL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post! Melanicus 5,208 Posted April 30, 2014 Popular Post! Share Posted April 30, 2014 "If your opponent is very fast in counter-attack and they want space behind your defensive line, if you give them that space, you are stupid." Mourinho explains why Bayern lost yesterday… I like attacking football, who doesn’t? But what I like is effective football. Rijkaard’s Barca of 2004-07, Pep’s Barca of 08-11 were effective and that’s why they should be praised. The problem is when the opponents change their tactics in response, you adapt or your strategy dies. Football is as much attack as it is defend. This is why I consider Ferguson the finest manager in the world in the past 12-15 years at least. He adapted. Wenger came, beat him, and he tweaked the team and won 3 Premier Leagues in a row with a CL to boot. Mourinho came and smashed the league, Ferguson finished outside the top 2 for 2 years in a row (one when we had Ranieri) and he went back to the drawing board. Sometime in the 05-06 season you saw Man United suddenly charge behind us mid-season, but couldn’t prevent us from winning. They did manage to win the league the season after. City came with their wealth and players and won… Ferguson again adapted and won in his final season with what was not a very attractive footballing display. Ferguson had delightful attacking teams that won leagues, and defensive performances when he needed. Their CL semifinal against Barcelona in 07-08 was a quite defensive performance… but it was necessary. Adapt the teams based on the players you have, the opponents you face and make the teams effective. That’s the quality of good managers. What makes the manager great is if he can do all that and rebuild the squad over the years at the same club, which puts Ferguson over Mourinho and almost all other managers for me. This asinine Holy-Grail quest football philosophy that has a ‘perfect style’ of football that all must seek is as brittle as it’s inflexible and it is not worthy. I have questioned Mourinho this season because at times I thought his strategy wasn’t effective against weaker teams. But I would love it, just love it, if he first smashes Atletico and then Real in Lisbon and throws the finger at the press by winning. bababoom, Madmax, Barbara and 8 others 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
