The Mourinho Thread

Btw, don't get your hopes up about the player that Jose was mistaken not to have taken off. In a different interview he said that this player made the individual mistake that led to the second goal.

It's not Ivanovic, he obviously means Hazard.

Is he mad???

It'll be crazy if he was referring to hazard and not ivanovic. Even my little sister could tell ivanovic was poor, Mourinho is not that stupid.

I would give one if my nuts for Klopp right now.

Haazard was equally piss-poor. atrocious game from him. jogging around, not caring, no impulses, really embarassing performance. Hazard is as far away from Messi and CR as the Mars is from planet earth.

Ronaldo has done fuck all in both games himself. Yeah he is not on their level but let's wait until the season gets further and we see the progress Hazard makes. He will come good for sure although he does need a kick in his backside.

I came here to moan and overreact like a good TC forumer, but when I saw this all my anger at Jose disappeared.

HOW COULD YOU NOT KNOW WHAT A PIKACHU IS?!!! :rant:

Ha ha because i'm old !

Our main worry is our conceding of goals from the right. We should stop the goals then think about our attack.

Even Barcelona have shut up shop and won with two consecutive 1-0 because they conceded 9 goals in three matches. After that we can have confidence to go and attack later games.

So...play Hazard at RB?

I know we haven't been playing particularly well since the turn of the year but our performances right now are even worse than the second half of last season. Back then, we still looked decent in attack and capable of defending properly. If we have to grind out a result, we can do it but at the moment, all those things have completely gone out of the window. We can't attack, we can't defend and we can't even get a good result. Would gladly take the boring 1-0 wins right now!

The quality of the performances haven't changed in 2015. The only difference is the score at the end of games. We tried to blame the second half of 14/15 on fatigue but it's obvious Chelsea have been found out. You can't keep grinding out wins 'like champions' forever so this was bound to happen without any changes made.

This third season phenomenon is truly astonishing. Is it a case Mourinho losing the dressing room after a few years? Or do the other teams figure out his approach, with Mourinho unable to adapt?

But it's very early so it's probably a bit too soon to start drawing conclusions. But the signs are very worrying for 15/16.

As every pundit said in the off-season, you can't stand still in the transfer market, otherwise you get left behind...I'm getting the feeling that we may have been left behind (by City)

The most worrying aspect of our first 4 games is that the players don't look motivated. There were a number of occasions where our attacking players could have taken a long shot and tried to test the goalkeeper...instead, they passed it around, missed the opportunity and Crystal Palace cleared the resulting cross/ball in the box with a simple header.

I back Mourinho to turn this mess around, time for him to walk the walk and back up his claims of wanting to stay here long term :blue scalf:

[Fernando 6,585]

I don't know about you but I like this situation because it will show me if mourinho is a coach for longer term.

Will he find the solution and solve the problem?

Or blame, complain and get a mess on his hand?

We shall see by December and more telling by the end of the season.

He was in a similar situation at Madrid where he win the league a season ago, gets a contract extension and then lose everything....

This is not the way a long term manager should be.

So let's see what he truly got and what are his real intentions in the coming weeks.

Does anyone know what mysterious injury Oscar and Ramires have .?

Some of them have looked as though they're satisfied after winning the Premier League last season. There must be a deep-rooted problem here, I mean we can't go from being the champions of England to looking like a team battling to avoid relegation the following season. Something major must have happened behind closed doors that we do not know of. On top of that, Mourinho's body language is all wrong since the start of the season. He looks tense, unhappy, pissed off etc, which is completely opposite to the start of last season, where he looked more relax, calm.
