The Mourinho Thread

[MrExcalibur100 7,124]

Oh yes the old imagine him with money line, the same line that was used on Moyes for years.

Simeone is on the verge off making Wenger's money excuse look very, very silly.

Oh and about Fergie, he told Wenger to 'shut his mouth' back in the 90's.

Not quite the same as "Specialist in failure" now is it? Wenger has already had his success in the past without spending big. He created the greatest ever team in PL history without spending big, the Invincibles.

He might be controversial but MrExcalibur is stating facts. Mourinho is despised by other rival fans. Just look at the comments on skysports and goal for instance when we lost our match against Atletico. People rejoice at us failing. I am not bothered because I don't care what other people think. But he is spot on.

Wenger has not won anything for years at Arsenal but like people have said he has done a brilliant job over the years when you consider the resources they have compared to Mourinho. Like it or not it does look like Wenger will win a trophy this season with Mourinho trophyless. But I was looking the reactions when we lost against Sunderland, Atletico and compared it with teams such as Arsenal and he lost much more respect when he slated Wenger. Other fans/teams just hate us/Mourinho. I also think that is part of the reason Enrique of Liverpool made that jibe against us when we lost to Atletico.

Mourinho is generally hated by non-Chelsea fans. I respect him as I think he is a world class manager even though some of his antics annoys me. But just wanted to state that people need to stop casually throwing around him being a "fake fan". Comments like that. He may be controversial but his aforementioned post is spot on. Can't see how others disagree.

Because we werent hated before or after Jose.

If you were born in London, then why do you have a Nigerian flag on here?

Whether I should or shouldn´t tell to support.... most folks here are getting tired of your constant drivel, I believe.

To have an opinion is one thing, but to hammer Jose every fucking day is getting ridiculous. Pretty soon you gonna blame him for your deficiencies.

As for your racist card, just wake up!

So you resort to racism?

That is a stupid question. I was born in London and have a Jamaican flag. Do you know how offensive that sounds even though you might not have intended it to be? Many members here may be born in a certain country but have another flag. My whole family is Jamaican and most of them born there but I was born here. I feel more Jamaican for that reason. Is that a problem?

the hate started with Ken Bates and his war with the Mail .. the hate with other fans was when we "GOT MUCH RICHER THAN THOU "

So Wengers previous accolades count for something but Mourinhos doesnt? Mourinho spent nothing and won the Champions League with Porto. I bet that doesnt count though, Mourinho took the title off of the invincible's. 8 years no trophy = specialist in failure.

Both of you give your heads a fucking shake.

Funny you mention that, Danny Fizsman put £50 million into arsenal to fund players like bergkamp and propel them to the title,when you consider £50 million was 2 1/2 times arsenals turnover at the time (City and Everton turned over £12 million that year to put the amount into perspective) is it really any different to what sheikh mansour and Abramovich have done?.

Wenger was hardly pennypinching in his early days.

Only when people like yourself talk constant shit.

Some people here are spoiled and never satisfied.

The thing I like most about TC is the nice and friendly atmosphere...

Whatever the hell happened to Chelsea family? It would be less hostile around here if we had fans of rival clubs.

[MrExcalibur100 7,124]

Just to make this clear. I was a big fan of Mourinho prior to the start of the season. I even followed very closely his career after he was sacked by Roman. Just like most CFC fans, I was happy to see him return, though I had my reservations. I was then surprised to listen to a CFC fan call Chelsea TV and tell Cundy that he didn't believe Jose was the right man for this Chelsea team. He presented some strong cases, but I chose to ignore what he was saying.

Now come the end of the season, my opinion on the man has changed. Having watched almost every press conference and read almost every interview, my opinion on him changed for the worse. He developed this new found trait (that i HATE) of publicly criticizing players, discussing players weaknesses and publicly criticizing the team at the same time, absolving himself from blame. (Apart from the Basel loss which was caused by poor rotation of the squad). This concerned me more than style of play and much more than not winning anything. Football is not just about winning stuff (though I'm not sure if Mourinho knows this). I'm not going to go into detail because its been discussed to death here already.

I hope people that are at least tolerant to an opposing viewpoint can at least see where I'm coming from. There seems to be an almost cult-like strain of following of Mourinho among us some fans. That's a cause for concern because it then allows Mourinho to get away with stuff that no manager should.

My loyalty lies with CFC. Not to no player, manager or even Roman Abramovich. Slavish Hero worshipping anyone is not to be recommended as the ability to retain constant lucid and objectiveness diminishes beyond reason. My loyalty lies only to the football club and to it alone. While Mourinho is manager, I will support him, but don't force me to agree with everything he says or does. And I disagree with many things he says and does.

I meant that it would be less hostile if the people fighting in this thread right now supported rival clubs.

[lionsden 4,689]

But have you ever wondered why Arsene is loved by every fan out there?

I also wonder why managers like Ancelotti,Klopp, Guardiola are well loved despite having recent success (since that's what you are implying with wenger comment i.e not seen as a threat). perhaps because they conduct themselves in a dignified manner and play attractive football.

OK from tomorrow I shall support Manure ,, SCumpool and Arse ... I have always supported City .. but do I have to support Norwich??
