The Mourinho Thread

[The_Flash 1,144]

I am very glad Jose pointed out that he did not storm out in a rage. Just rubbish written by the papers, it shows how they can manipulate things, those articles will be there forever now, but it was not the whole truth. At least he told them straight.

Jose Mourinho: I hate diving and action must be taken to stop it

What I like most about Jose return to the bridge is the attention we now receive. Every time there is something to read. We may not have the best players in the league now, but we have the best manager and that is what will count at the end of the season

Very hypocrite from José, I love him; but he also told his Porto players to dive.

one can learn from their mistakes. He seemed to despise it while at Inter and the Italian football isn't beyond some good, old diving.

Stroke of genius with his subs!

[Fulham Broadway 16,493]

Took a real gamble changing it that late,leaving us so thin at the back, it took balls,it worked,that's why I'm so pleased he is back. :blue scalf:

I think it's more a political statement for the fa and referees.

Be honest, who had a moan when Ba started?

Sinking in yet?

[NishC300 1,865]

The boss.

[Laylabelle 9,326]

Like the old days when he'd make changes and suddenly game all changed and all good.

Jose at his best ,superb today got the team and the subs 100% right ,those who have been playing well started ,those who have not were watching and when the subs came on they knew they were playing for places.

[Sidzeret 2,257]

Thank God, we have got The Special One to make those special subs at the right time.

If it was the FSW, it would have been like: Ivan off for Azpi, Cahill for Terry, Luiz to midfield and Mikel for Lampard.

You do see him on the sidelines and get that bit of confidence.Whereas with Rafa and others just get the impression they didnt have a clue what to do next and were just on a nice day out or something

[Henrique 9,133]

To be honest:

Mourinho was awful today. Waited more than 20 minutes in 2nd half to make changes, when it was clear since first 10 minutes that Norwich goal was a matter of time. Yeah, in the last 15 minutes he made a lot of changes but what would we exoect wgen we have some many talents on the sidelines?

Unecessary risks we took today, his team wasnt working but he insistec way too long befofe he changed anything, reminded me of Rafa. He waited a Norwich to make his subs. Thats not good at all.

I actually wanted Ba to start because Norwich are a bit too physical for Eto'o.

I had a moan when the goal went in and I, along with everyone on my TL, had been begging for changes for more than ten minutes because the change in momentum was so obvious.

But credit to Jose, he took a chance by bringing on Hazard and playing Schurrle as a LB and it paid off (even though we got incredibly lucky with the second goal).

[DDA 9,570]

I was raging my tits off at Jose for most of yesterdays game but then he goes and makes the game winning substitutions. Can't stay mad at him even if I wanted to try which I wouldn't want to :-)

MOTM - jose mourinho. brilliant subs. took the risk and it damn well payed off... reminded me a little of how it was done in his first stint here. calling DD off the bench in a lot of games to change matches... good old mou.
