The Mourinho Thread

[iseah100 5,612]

Did you guys catch what Hummels said of Tuechel?? He said that there is a strict diet in place, a much healthier one. Think that has a lot to do with their great play this season? Is that a problem Chelsea has?

And I thought that was a fair response, albeit with a little sarcasm.

Good point. Most clubs have 'guidelines' over diet etc. Wenger though in the 90s enforced a strict diet on his squad, macrobiotic stuff that he learned in Japan, and that was the gooners most successful period.

Not with Mourinho around I don't think. I can't see him being okay w the players eating junk. I've known Chelsea to serve healthy meals to the players for a while now but I guess I could be mistaken.

Winning this game is far from a great achievement. The start of PL is really a big deal. So you expect people to praise Mourinho for beating Tel Aviv? Even if he the team defeats Arsenal, people won't be here praising him as much as they criticized, and the reason is very simple: Mourinho is getting criticized for the whole picture, they are not taking about isolated results, but about a situation that many people saw coming (at least people who never get the idea that Cahill is world class, Terry as good as 2005, Ivanovic boots being holy, and Azpilicueta being the best LB of the Europe).

If Mourinho change things, I'm sure people will be here praising his achievements, but I'm not talking about a couple of positive results.

And neither was DDA, the poster of the comment to which your message above is a reply. Take another look at what he said, and see if perhaps you might agree with me.

RLC and Kennedy 2

Traore and Baba 1

Zoumas role furthened.

It's early days but it looks like Mou is building the youth aswell, Although lets be honest, those players could end this season with 50+ apps between them and people will still think he's a youth hating maniac.

If we get 50+ on the contrary that would be amazing!

What we don't want is a Kalas type of case. That just because he starts one important game it's the best thing ever.

Nope one game a lone don't do it.

Needs to be continued with follow up games.

Just like you used to bring cases about in the past about young players being giving chances like Huth, and I don't know who else but never amount to much....

Again one game does not make a trend.

We need to see consistency my friend.

I use Huth because 38 games in two seasons is a very respectable amount, even more so when you consider we had Terry, Carvalho and Gallas all in the prime of their lives at the club at the time.

It's an equivalent Bamford playing games in a team that has Aguero, Lewandowski and Suarez on the books.

Yup. In fact Wenger can be credited a lot with bridging the gap between science and football, ahead of his time so to speak. Problem is, once everyone then took that model, he had no plan b

Great point.

Djokovic for example has a strict diet, in 2010 he cut out dairy and wheat and reduced his sugar intake - he has won 9 of his 10 Grand slams in the 5 years since.

He is also a strong believer of the traditional Chinese medicinal belief that parts of the body heals at different times of the day.
