I dont think Mou honestly cares about the players that he does't like. Hes got his mind totally fixed on winning and he will try to win by any way he knows how. He just wants the best players he can buy in his side and doesn't mind paying for them. What I would be very interested seeing is him taking over a PL side recently relegated and on a tight budget and see how he got on. I know with him just going to them it would create optimism/enthusiasm but wiuld he enough?.

The problems I had with him IMHO we concentrated TOO much defensively. Yes of course I understand all the lads needs to have that thought in the back of your head but I think our forwards/attackers had been drilled so much to think defensively that they had simply forgotten what to do in the top third.

This is a clean break from the Mourinho era. Mourinho is brilliant at organising a defence, but his approach to attacking play is pretty basic. In fact, at most of his clubs, it consists largely of signing or inheriting an established world-class striker and letting them get on with it. “Mourinho put in a system, but we didn’t work lots,” Hazard said recently. “We know what to do, because we play football, but maybe the automatisms were a little bit different.”

Quote sums it up quite well. From Hazard's own mouth.

Mourinho is getting exactly what he wants... he says batshit mental things so the papers focus on him rather than how shit his players are performing for him. He might be behind the times from a tactical point-of-view, but he's still the maestro of mind-games.

His team win 2-0, moans after the match about the red card last match - something only Moaninho can do

Great game-plan from him today. Almost fully neglected Hazard and Pedro. And now I fully understand why opponents hate him and his tactics so much.

To be honest, tactical masterclass from him, even if the conditions did favour him with the injuries we got. 

Best I've seen United play in ages. He deserves credit for that. It's good - hopefully they can do us a favour against Spurs now.

True. If he did that while managing Chelsea then we would be praising him 100%.

Funny he decides to pull a tactical masterclass and motivate his players against us, but not the rest. Must be a reason for that  They played on thursday and have injuries of their own, more than us. We got outplayed by a team that's supposed to be dead the way Mourinho has been speaking this season, no favours.

Will he fuck, United will bend over and let Kane go in dry.

Here's hoping he will shut it also at the Lane... Fighting for the UCL spot and keeping the unbeaten run going should help us...
