The Mourinho Thread

[manpe 10,861]

Is this even a serious thread, regarding the poll?

Gobsmacked.

Why shouldn't it be? It's a justified question that's been discussed for some time now. At least the poll gives a clear view on what the community thinks not having to read through pages of anger and disappointment. You wouldn't be asking this if any other name but "Mourinho" was there.

Yeah people here are brutal!

I admit I can also go a bit, but after a day always come back to normality.

Right now I agree with you, let the man just finish the season and then have his replacement to take over for next season.

We pretty much did the same mistake Real Madrid did.

Oh well, as long as we can finish top 4 I could care less. We might even get a surprise and do good in the CL, because sometimes you get a surprise in crap seasons like this.

What if we do a Dortmund and finish like 8th? after fighting relegation until Feb? When do we draw the line?

Imo, the players are more guilty than him.

It seems, in your black and white perspective of things, that you've painted me with the "Mourinho fanboy" brush. If that's the case, you're greatly mistaken in identifying support for a highly successful manager as blind devotion towards him.

The last thing this shambles of a club needs right now is for the headman's axe to be swung. Give him the season and make changes in the summer if necessary.

Well if end of the December still in the same rut then sack the guy, get a new manager and go wild the January transfer window!

But seriously Mourinho ain't that bad to finish out of top 4, and neither is our squad.

I watched the game at home, my eldest lad was out at his mates party, we both live and breath Chelsea. He came home and walked through the door and looked at the TV, he looked at me and said "Dad this isn't good, but we are still Chelsea and proud, I love you"

Some things in life are just too precious.

The problem is sometime changing a manager sooner is better. Pochettino Southampton, Hiddink 2009 and countless other examples. Very rarely do we actually see the problem of changing manager and the team does even worse, that tends to happen more at lower clubs. If we keep up this form let's say we are 20 points off 4 places by Feb? What do we do? Accept a season out of Europe to 'give Mourinho one last chance?'. And it is not knee jerk we can already see that it can happen, Dortmund and Moyes MU are 2 of the clearest examples in recent memory.

If he finishes 4th I see no reason why he shouldn't be kept on, if you see what I mean. As I saw on Twitter, "the biggest difference between United and Chelsea is that everytime it came down to it, United backed SAF over anyone."

Which is what the club should do, even if privately things are happening that we don't know of.

They were to start with, but I think Jose makes things worse with his attitude. He's a fantastic man manager when things are going well but he needs to prove that he can do it in the bad times. Pull us out of this rut Jose.

If two or even three players are playing below par it would be understandable, but almost a whole team !? For me that's a strong indication the coach is doing something very wrong.

At this point if finishes 6th see no reason.Still be 10 places higher!He has a week or so to think things over/work out whatever and show he is capeable..if not sacked that is
