The Mourinho Thread

Bring the FSW back !

are you serious? say knee-jerk or overraction or whatevs but let's be honest: the title is lost already. we are 8points behind city now. never gonna recover this against a motivated city side. we might still have a successful season in the cups but epl is over.

But what worries me most is that Mourinho seems to have lost it. We are clueless in defense, inefficient in attack and his adamacy of playing ivanovic has cost us 3 points today.

It's not over till they lift the title.

Somebody wants to get sacked in my honest opinion.

Does he do this intentionally every third season???

I just don't want to believe he doesn't have the balls to bench poor performers like he used to.

The biggest issue is why was Azpilicueta taken off at all?

Lol, I must be alone in not wanting Mourinho sacked now?

Not alone Besides who would people want? Ancelotti? Not for us.

Only manager i rate as high as Mou is Simeone and he isn't going away from atletico anytime soon.

I don't think he should be sacked either. Who's better and available? Klopp and Ancelotti are both overrated. Personally I only consider Simeone and arguably Guardiola as better than Mourinho but neither is available so what's the point.

Jose has lost the plot and it clearly affects the team. Sure, some individuals are more to blame than others (Ivanovic, Fabregas come to mind), but the problem is collective.
We are declining as a team instead of evolving. I doupt any real work has been done during pre season, but people who don't know much about football kept saying that pre season is irrelevant, when it is absolutely crucial for the way a team performs in the upcoming season. Our lack of tactics is obvious to everyone. The players look like they don't have a clue about how to attack or defend.
Jose needs to find solutions for a lot of issues fast, or else we won't be able to challenge for anything this year. Staying trophyless for a season or two is not a big deal, staying trophyless and declining as a team is a whole different story.

Ivanovic was a shithouse and Azpi was a tank for us so far... and what is Mou's response? Benching Azpi.... the guy has really lost it, he needs to get his shit together ASAP.

Tbh...at no point in the game did I expect Mourinho to take off Ivanovic, or Fabregas for that matter. Someone mentioned it before, but because JT is not available, it would have been highly doubtful that he would remove another of his "leaders".

Our defense had to suffer for it though.

Nahh, I'm not even a fan of Mourinho and I don't want him sacked. I do hope he looks at himself first, implements some changes and gives other players fair chances to play.
