Someone once said the best way to play against a Mourinho team is to give them the ball. 1 shot on target tonight. No attacking patterns, no imagination. Just a hapless, disjointed "footballing" performance. . Still somewhat surprising how a manager with such limited attacking insight won so many trophies. Maybe because he was the only big manager who had no shame parking the bus with multimillion pound squads, sometimes against inferior opposition. His star players have been carrying him for years now. Drogba, Sneijder, Ronaldo, Hazard. He's finished at the highest level. A chequbook manager. A glorified Tony Pulis. 

I said some pages earlier that he only prepares his teams on how to nullify the opponent, while letting his players use their own instinct to attack. This method was intended to make opponents not know the way or patterns his team uses to attack hoping they won't nullify it like he does to others.

But unfortunately for him, managers like Conte, Guardiola, and Klopp came along where they train their philosophy so well that just trying to stop them isn't enough again. And without quality players he used to have before, it's even worse for mourinho to succeed this way again. Infact if anyone changes their style of play to surprise Mourinho like letting his team have the ball or if you score first and he has to attack, he'll be left without knowing what to do lol.

I remember last season when I complained bitterly whether Mourinho practices training patterns with the players because they always looked like they haven't played together before. Seeing this on another team I don't support is looking even more clear now, this could be the end of an era as a top coach we have been witnessing since 2015

Jose Mourinho on Henrikh Mkhitaryan:

"He has to do more. It's as simple as that. We have big expectations at the club."

I think there is a lot of people under performing at United, but most off all the manager.

The Mancs are not supportive. They are blinded. So is that United board when they approached him. He is a finished manager on this level. We kicked him out when we where standing 16th.SIX-TEENTH. Who the fuck hires a manager who almost got a topclub like us relegated? One who is desperate and blinded by the need of winning trophies. United, it seems, cannot exist without Old Father Time Fergusson.

Only his name and previous records got José the United job. Nothing more. This is the present so it was a huge gamble by United and there you go! Standing 8th in the League and 3th in a Europa League group with Dutch, Turkish whatever shite teams.

Red cafe fans saying he should be given more time but it's not that simple. The atmosphere will become so poisonous that the club will have no choice but to sack him. I'm pretty sure by now he's alienated 1/3 of the players and more soon as results get worse.

I never blame managers for poor performences / poor spells of football teams.
Look at Ranieri in Greece for example. They give him a squad of dummies, he loses to Faroe-Northern Ireland he gets the sack. Then he goes on to win the PL with Leicester !
There are exceptions and I 'm afraid Jose is one.
