The Mourinho Thread

[MrExcalibur100 7,124]

Ironically on the same day Madrid won after having Ronaldo sent off. Maybe karma is real

"I lose against Bradford, it's a disgrace" or words to that effect. Pride goes before a fall, it seems.

Think Madrid failure mentally destroyed him, we might deny it but he has never been the same since then. Before he was this arrogant cool guy who believes he sits on top of the world(with good reason) but now he is kind of losing that hunger, design he had 10 years ago. I just hope we don't bottle this season, by the end of next week we could be out of CO Cup and let City cut the gap back to 2 points.

WE NEED A RESPONSE against Liveprool, a 3-0 victory would be enough to make us forget this defeat.

[Vybz Kartel 1,613]

Lets be honest Mourinho has lost it, in the last 5 years he has been shit, he flatters to deceive but ultimately his no longer good enough

[The Chels 2,502]

Carry on, don't let anyone stop you from voicing your opinion. It's just amazing that these voices come after a shock defeat and seem to come with a swagger.......

I've noticed and remarked upon our clear defensive woes even when we were winning while lots of people like to pretend they're not there. I would love to be proven wrong and for Mourinho to sort out our issues with pressing and compactness but it hasn't happened yet and doesn't look like happening anytime soon. Still I am surprised we conceded 9 to Tottenham and Bradford. That is some achievement.

wouldn't wanna be him right now

wouldn't wanna be him right now

Freak results happen, nobody will lambast him with a cain and tan his arse. It's football, we will be back.

any excuses?

[Styles 9,790]

It was the lack of noise wot done it today

[Sheva. 5,373]

I blame him for not using his bench a lot, this results in a lot of rusty players on the pitch at the same time.

I'm not saying they should even start, but sometimes the game is over since HT and Mourinho won't make a change till the 85th minute.

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

double sack him

and hire that Bradford manager

Tweeted by Bradford

@officialbantams: Jose Mourinho has just been in an ecstatic away dressing room to congratulate every City player and staff member. A real touch of class

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

any excuses?

Montella hold Cuadrado, so that he cannot play today for Chelsea and score a hattrick to win the match. So yes, it's all Montella fault.

[BlueLyon 9,359]

Im begining to doubt we will actualy win anything except for league perhaps due to 5 point advantage. It will be difficult to win anything actualy. We have good squad that should be HUNGRY for success and show it on the pitch. Players aint robots. Until Mou starts approaching games bit differently, things change in football and Mou approach looks slightly out. We have problems with small team, with big teams, with away games, with defence and attack. Mou became speculative, has little rotation and no plan B.

Hope he can prove me wrong, but we have been so hot and cold this season its painful.

First time around, we were small favourites in all competitions. Now we begin to look like bottlers. It all started in Club world cup, but then under Mou with Super Cup, whole last season...

In his early years, Mou actualy had good record, he was losing games, but it was tight; players fought hard. Last few years he had some major fuckups; Barca 5:0, Dortmund 4:1, Tottenham, now this...Mou from 10 years ago would not allow that shit, simple as that.

[Styles 9,790]

It's not the end of the world, and this could ultimately be a blessing in disguise, but that doesn't make the result any less embarrassing.

Tuesday is even more important now. Let's hope Mourinho can give us at least 25% of what the Bradford manager gave his team today.

[LDN Blue 7,903]

From the sounds of it, Mourinho had no excuses to give in the PC. Gave credit to Bradford and called out the players he selected, I suspect Salah will be quaking at the moment.
