The Mourinho Thread


 Share

Recommended Posts

Time for some honesty. Pellegrini is just not going to cut it. This Citeh side doesn't have enough spirit or desire. That's that. United actually don't have as good a team as us or Citeh. Ferguson was the difference. Now that will be exposed. We're favourites and rightly so.

You could quote me in a years time and this could all blow up in my face...but I doubt it.

This brings up memories of waiting into the night when Hazard dropped that Twitter bomb

At least we already know where Mourinho is heading to. That Hazard one though, was completely different. Teased us all the way till the end. Hopefully, this place doesn't crash tomorrow!

This city does not have enough spirit and desire?

The same city we could not beat for shit this season?

And too soon to come to conclusion against moyes.

Wait at least half a season.

Mourinho has always had Wenger figured out. He won't be a problem next season especially considering his squad is laughable now.

Then there's David and Manuel - That's laughable compared to Sir Alex Ferguson and whoever else he may have competed against around the top 4 when he was here (such as Benitez).

I doubt 'smaller' managers will be able to figure Mou out; I only think Laudrup will get the better of him due to his understanding of continental styles which a lot of managers in our league currently lack; and by 'get the better of him' I mean tactically matching us when we meet and earning a draw.

Next season I think all eyes will be on Mourinho and AVB.

Both have had similar career paths when you take into consideration they both did great at Porto then jumped over to London and obviously they both know eachother extremely well.

Regardless how good/bad Tottenham's squad is next season, I think if AVB is still there (which is most likely) they will be our team to beat.

There's a difference between skill and desire. Citeh have a better team than us at the moment but everyone can see they are a team full of Mercenaries with little motivation when it get's tough, evident this season. Their whole season was just one big collapse.

Even without Mourinho we have that drive. With Mourinho that strong winning mentaility will be back.

Glad we're on the same page.

Ermmm wrong, the collapse was all due to mancini sorry ass.

His horrible man management skills send city into a chaos.

I think everyone knew that with mancini at the helm they will under perform.

And not to mention as you said they have a better squad and with a better manager they should be a real force.

All the while we still got people like Mikel and torres in our team...

No one will challenge if come the new season players like that are still around.

The thing with Pellegrini is he's overachieved. Not 'made great achievements' (although with Villarreal he did do something special). Causing upsets with smaller clubs doesn't mean you're ready for the big time.

I have no doubt he's a good tactician, but I have doubts as to whether he can manage a squad with huge ego's - which you get at every top club. He certainly didn't manage at Madrid.

Mancini rotated too much - Pellegrini doesn't rotate enough. His players often play with niggling troubles in their legs and it's evident on the pitch. He's too stubborn like AVB was at his time here. I do believe that, in the long run, Pellegrini would be good for City - calm, collected, suave - but in the short-run, he hasn't got that fire in his belly to get the Man City players back on their feet and fighting like champions. He gets attached to clubs quickly and emotionally invested, but the City players don't want a 'daddy' like our players got with Mourinho I don't think. They want some hard bastard to come in with a whip and just motivate the hell out of them.

On a note regarding City and away from Manuel - I find it great that while we won the title around a decade ago, we've continued playing at the top despite our low league finish last year.

City have done nothing of note in the Champions League. They've choked in the FA Cup this season and can't get into their highest gear in the league for some reason.

I think what we've done and continue to do is special. Clubs with cash injections - City, Anzhi, PSG, Monaco, Malaga (well, at a point) - I don't see any of them having the top-status longevity we've managed to achieve.

We have a special owner. We have a special and at times questionable board. We just have 'something' the others club don't have.

This will be evident when we win every domestic trophy available next season.
