The Mourinho Thread

From 10:50 to 11:25.

Mourinho’s men put on a masterclass yesterday against Roberto Di Matteo’s Schalke side, beating them 5-0 at Veltins Arena in what the Chelsea boss described as one of his sides most complete matches.

Mourinho was most impressed with his side’s mentality heading into the game, noting their focus and ambition, which he believes has led to the Blues great run of form.

“I don’t remember Chelsea playing in this way away from home. Obviously, there have been great victories away from home with me, with Roberto, even with other managers. But this was very impressive. Very complete.”

“The players are very serious… Everything they do with big focus and ambition, but at the same time with this component, which is something new in Chelsea football – this happiness, this flair, this beauty.”

“The way they are doing things, we are very happy. We are having good results and playing really, really well at this moment.”

Objective-seeking master said in the January :

"Ok guys, enough of this 'flair playing' nonsense, January on means business !"

(But seriously, he said that the club is happy playing in THIS WAY, yet IN THIS WAY Chelsea played only against decent to average oppositions. Is there even a plan to play with 'flair and happiness' for

a) more than a couple of months

b ) against good and top clubs

? )

All he talks is nonsense.

When we do good, nonsense.

When we do bad, nonsense.

Best to not pay attention at all his comment/interviews, because his a habitual liar and you can never know what is the truth with this guy.

^^^ Not this season BCS...need a couple of reinforcements methinks.

Koke to replace Ramires, because he can fill in for both Fabregas and Oscar, RLC first team call up, he can be a proper box to box in big games.

IMO we haven't played well since Oscar went off form in January (which was soon after Cesc's hammy injury). We probably could have won had Cesc not been injured. I think it's more than just a "mid season dip in form". Therefore it'd be wise to have a player who can fill in for either.

? )

So you think Jose actively said to the team stop playing this football?

A variety of reasons has been the case for us not playing as good since January but despite that we have gone from 3 point's clear to 7 with a game in hand, if we had a purist in charge he would have changed nothing, gone on about style and how it won't change while our results suffered big time because of it (coincidentally that is happening up in the blue half of Manchester) The results we have been getting despite playing average not only shows just how lucky we are to have Mou but how the strong mentality of the squad is growing.

That is also why we are top going into the final straight, all the top 4 have had brilliant spells and average spells, were we differ from the rest is we have been remembering to pick up the results while playing bollox.

When the moment comes again and the best player's are on form we will play the great football we did in the first 6 month's, but when we need to roll our sleeves up and do it the not so pretty way, we will do that too.

That kind of adaptability will put us in great stead for many years to come.

I don't understand what he said or what the context is. You do your discussion, no one is stopping you. No one has the authority to stop you unless you cross a line and then the mod's need to come up.

I never said Chelsea's style of playing is brilliant. It's bad, at times its borderline pathetic. But that was going to happen this season, I had set my bar low cause 2 seasons is not what it will take a manager of Mourinho's play-set to come up with beautiful football. I do my analysis, I do it full-time professionally. I used to do it for this site, before I stopped because of time constraints and also because quite a few educated members left to be replaced by ones who will go from 'Mourinho is god' to 'He should be sacked if we don't win anything this year' in the span of 45 minutes.

You shouldn't be enjoying the football. You should be enjoying the fact that Chelsea are on their way to win the League after 5 long fucking years. You think I like the fact that we are not dominating our opposition? No I don't, but right now I know that is not happening. But I fucking loved the way we won it yesterday and as a whole I'm fucking delighted how things are going on. People are beating themselves down on the silliest things. Like I genuinely believe if we are a minute away from the title few people are sitting with crossed arms going ' We could have dominated' . Like fuck your domination, this beautiful club just won the League and I'm fucking happy.

I have no problem whatsoever , this is a forum, there has to be a bit of negativity from people, but it's being outright criminal now.

This. I would love - or even crave - better dominant play. But hey, this is a hard competitive league. We depend on a coach that is good at quick fixes and fire fighting. Newsflash: no trainer besides that could survive in a top club. Blame the system with its short term goals, i do as well. Is Mou God? No. Is he a good manager: yes I think so, very much. Do I feel like FUUU when i see us grinding results: yes.

But never, ever has this taken my love for Chelsea away. Nor do i want Mou out (and i hate our play sometimes as much as Lionsden).

Its like having a wife that is tha bomb, but you realize women do not just thirst for a blowjob, thrust their asses back in heat waiting for you to pound them doggy and thursting a facial.

This is real life football. Ups and downs. Check other teams forums, every team has the same problems. In our case - because we are first - first world problems.

That said, yes Mou can of course get heat for playing so ugly, why not.

Thanks for ruining my dreams dude....

[Oscar 441]

Team's burning out.

It will be interesting to see if the team stays strong next season or end's up like Jose cursed third years.

I have been saying this for months DONT bother listening to his interviews ....

This thread will soon go into meltdown once a 0-0 draw/a narrow loss in a couple of hours.

Or complete inactivity if we win.

hahahhahahahahahahahha... u must feel so silly now...

[dmode 113]

Credit where credit is due. These narrow wins are not coincidences. These are because of some shrewd tactics and unbelievably gritty defending

Stare at the floor, everyone. Stare at the floor.

Another woeful "tactical" display. Luckily Man United and our other so called "rivals" are very average teams themselves. Too bad it won't work against Barcelona or Madrid or even the likes of PSG and Atletico for that matter.

I don't see his 2nd spell being a long one. Only a matter of time before Roman gets bored with the negative ribbish "football" and wonders what he's wasting his money for.

Lmao!

[hjperdeath 2,226]

Even after a brilliant win like this, you have to come back to read shit like that. Instead of living in the moment and enjoy what's happening, you need to over analyze. Need a hard long look in the mirror and ask yourself why you're supporting this club when you want this man out. I'll take the warning points, fucking scum.

[MrExcalibur100 7,124]

Mourinho won't last long here. His fanboys should deal with it. He will again get exposed in the champions league as he has done in the last few seasons. No other big name manager will dare set up his team to play this way big match after big match.

Any other top class manager could have easily won the league with this team after such a limp attempt from our "rivals", who are no better than Monaco.

Shit football and lack of CL success means Mourinho will be out and then no big team will want him. Roman really is brutal like that, ask Ancelotti. He'll have to run to the Arabs at PSG. Mourinho should never forget he needs us more than we need him.

[MrExcalibur100 7,124]

It hurts me immensely to say it, but right now, I'll bite the bullet and go for Klopp if he's available. I'm fully convinced he'll have won the league this season with this same team and by playing at least something called football. Moirinho is the right man for the wrong team or vice-versa. Too many blinded by short term league success, but it's obvious to me now Mourinho is not the right manager for the long term. Roman will get frustrated and sack him again.
