The Mourinho Thread

[didierforever 7,349]

Hi friend!

I prefer not to sell him because for me he is a special player. But if we pay 15 million to sign baba, his situation with us would be very complicated.

Another option is in the midfield. Honestly, the attitude / behavior of Ruben Loftus-Cheek yesterday was a bit incomprehensible. It is as if he would think as a big star and not as an young guy who has to conquer the world. Maybe we could try Nathan Ake as midfielder because for me Aké and RLC at the same level.

Right now I think we are going to sign Baba, but the words of Jose yesterday has me baffled. Maybe they are just mind games to avoid damaging the negotiation... But if we signed him Baba, Aké stay in a very complicated situation.

That's why I think he should go on loan to another Premier League team, where he can play 30/35 games at the starting eleven and so we can see if he deserves or does not deserve our trust. And to me he deserves our trust.

When Aké was on loan at Reading he was a great performance, even their fans were delighted with him playing in the midfield or as left-back. I think he just needs opportunities and if we signed him Baba he will have quite difficult to play with us.

With a loan at Premier League team He could return in 2016 to be an important player to complete our squad, and, perhaps, to fit into our starting eleven gradually. I think Nathan Aké is a player who is worth having around us, as Azpilicueta backup or on loan to another Premier League team.

By the way, where is Aké? Why he is not doing the preseason with us ?.

Regards.

he was supposedly very close to his loan move to boro before the pre-season.

i am guessing the luis situation has put a stop to everything. luis wont be officially sold unless baba is done and ake wont be loaned unless baba is done too (just so we have a back up under the worst case scenario).

also, i remember jose saying that ake will be loaned out this season (maybe towards the end of the PL or the post season friendlies). so maybe he does not see ake as a real replacement right now, which is a shame.

Ake is not fantastic at LB but since Dave is going nowhere any time soon he can easily absorb Luis' role in the team - I'd be surprised if we buy Baba.

Plus in worst case scenarios he can probably do a better job in midfield than Zoum Zoum can.

agreed. i think we ake can take luis' minutes,

though honestly speaking, i wont be surprised if we buy baba.

Well I believe the attitude of rlc might be because of Mourinho hyping him up before....

But it's all good, I think the kid can come thru.

Hi friend!

Yeah, maybe he has a lot of pressure now after the words of Jose. But this guy is chosen and he has a huge to go far with us features, but has an attitude / behavior at times that maybe he has to change.

I wish that he and Jose can understand each other well and RLC understand that the words of Jose are mind games to motivate and Jose does not press him too hard.

I hope this guy does not get lost along the way ...

Regards.

could the new stadium be behind all this? I wonder... tough times ahead?

We had to do it sometime, why not now when there is not any big trouble to our title campaign, after some years United and City will have a settled squad and if we don't build the stadium we won't be able to compete with them financially, a new stadium should be a priority right now.

Think next season in big games our tactic will get found out because we do the same thing over and over again. It is like tiki taka, eventually teams will counter it.

[Despiadado.Maleante 1,046]

Mourinho only know how to teach defensive football. He just hopes his attacker's are good enough to win him the game. If hazard gets injured top 4 will be gone.

[Polo7 3,496]

Mourinho out! Fucking lol.

[Atlas Lion 1,223]

I'm surprised his all time starting 11 wasn't made up of all defenders

[kellzfresh 7,229]

We need a faster, and better midfielder with strength than Mikel for the big games.

It's unacceptable to play with that low quality against champions League level teams.

We should stop this joke of not signing any midfielders before its too late. Or else we'll turn out to be local league champions like mancity while being shite in Europe.

[zolayes 14,489]

we only have 5

[Oscar 441]

Mourinho is the only manager to have a key player like Dave playing the full 90 2 games in a row in a preseason.

[Madmax 9,219]

Yeah he's shit, sack the fucker.
