The Mourinho Thread


 Share

Recommended Posts

I've enjoyed the utd and Arsenal matches more than the vast majority of matches this season. Big close matches where we managed to control the play as we wanted and get the results we needed. I enjoy real competitiveness and great tactical battles a lot more than mindless attacking football. That's why I watch the EPL and the Serie A but not La Liga. But that's just me...

What you don't get, is had we continued to play the pseudo "free-flowing dynamic tripla quadruple magic passing football" you so crave during the second half of the season we would've probably lost a lot of points and the title.

Oh yeah because shooting 2 times on target in 180 minutes against QPR and Man Utd, which somehow gave Chelsea 6 points, is well-made recipe for success.

That's not how this works. Jose and chelsea were title favourites before the season even started while Soton on the otherhand defied the odds and have been rubbing shoulders with teams of considerably better squad and bigger budget throughout the season. The latter is a much bigger and impressive achievement from a non biased standpoint. Either way I think you can't go wrong with either Koeman or Jose winning the award but to dismiss the dutchman as a legitimate contender for the award is just plain wrong.

so the managers from the 2,3 best teams (title contenders) are automatically out of the competition for the manager of the season awards just because they're supposed to be there at the end of the season? bullshit. we lost only two games this season. and one of them is controversial, haven't lost a single game to a 'big' team so far...yada yada yada...we all now what we (mourinho) did this season.

on the other hand. southampton sold some players and bought some players. from this perspective they aren't weaker now. they bought the right players for the positions they needed to. look at lovren now, or shaw, or lambert and lallana. they bought smart and that's why they are as good as last year. i would give it to koeman if they had these results without the players they bought or without some of them. if they lose 2 more games till the end of the season they will have 13 loses. that's every 3rd game as a defeat.

1>5.

and btw, we should have even more points if it wasn't for the refs and fa.

Yeah, so the 2004-2005, 2005-2006 and the late of 2014-2015 Chelsea have all been lucky, it's not intended nor controlled.

The only game I accept to take as random and entirely dependent of the quality of Hazard rather than the whole team was QPR ( doesn't mean he was instrumental for us all year ), the rest is BS, good team deserved performances.

so jose should play according to what viewers want to see,, hmm... next i will hear is, jose sucked all the fun out of PL by finishing the PL so early. look at city and how wonderfully they won their title.. JOGA BONITO!!!

we have been utter crap for 4 months. dont mind that we are unbeaten for 4 months in PL!!!! :lol: :lol:

what makes you think that jose gives a crap about what people think about his philosophy? or that he is looking to change people's opinions? i thought his comments were pretty straight forward as to what he thinks is the main priority when he makes his team go out on the field.

Next i will hear is, jose sucked all the fun out of PL by finishing the PL so early. You said it all thank you

I dunno about you guys but if I spent more time complaining about how my team played than actually supporting and celebrating their victories Id probably consider supporting another team that fulfilled my "BARCELONA ATTACKING FOOTBALL CAN LOSE BUT CANT PLAY DEFENCE" needs.
