The Mourinho Thread

TBF, the performance against Burnley was quite similar to the one we had against Hull at the Bridge last season. And Mourinho's comments after the game was very similar, if not identical to this post-Burnley one. Doesn't really mean much IMO.

Yeah...guess it depends a lot on how our defense holds it together in the coming months. If having Matic and Fabregas to control the midfield isn't sufficient to play with a lower block (as Mourinho calls it), then we can expect more changes in that back 4.

The Blues boss is pleased with our start but feels there is plenty of room for improvement
‘I know we need to work and improve, especially the intensity of our game. I want it to be higher defensively and with our ball circulation.

‘At the same time I know pre-season wasn’t the perfect pre-season and we need to go step by step. Some players, like Ivanovic, are at the top of their form, but others are up and down. It’s early in the season though and we have our third game next week.’

But Mourinho admitted that he wanted to speak with John Terry and Co just 10 minutes into the second period in order to rectify his side's substandard performance.

Even he admits that tactically the entire team was weak. The second half performance wasn't a lucky streak.
