ZanSnake 1,211 Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 Did Jose have any ball control when he played right midfield as a player?Otherwise, his instincts is quite sublime for a guy who NEVER played football before :whistle: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ledg 644 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 I'll always be behind me but it was so stupid after 1-0 with a man up to play like we were the team wih a man down.. We could easily just control the game after the goal and win it. MrBlueGuy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrExcalibur100 7,124 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Unacceptable tactics today. He's unfortunately showing to be a one trick pony in the away matches this season. Play "counter-attacking" football and hope for the best. If the opponent doesn't allow you to, park the bus and defend for your lives.WTF is the point of Hazard, Fabregas, Willian and co if Mourinho won't let them express themselves instead they are turned to fullbacks away from home vs the big teams. Painful to watch. MrBlueGuy and lionsden 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Best coach in the world....we have been brainwashed. He is brilliant for sure, but he does mistakes more often than he used to.HIs inclusion of Drogba cost us 2 points vs Schalke and it very well might have cost us again.

MrBlueGuy 1,552 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Any hope of that 'change in style' will never happen under this man. Even he got CR7, which he did he always did this when playing against Barcelona. I am so pissed off today, not because of Frank but more because of this fucking disgusting tactic used.The worst thing is it has been predictable. Fucking predictable, even Rafa can do this. That Schurrle goal means fuck all, in 12-13 we also had a pen and lost because of the same tactic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NishC300 1,865 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Pathetic. Leading by a goal and a man, and we didn't even bother going for the 2nd! EVEN IN THE FINAL SECONDS! Pathetic last year all over again. xPetrCechx 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cholo 428 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 I am quite happy with Mourinho's performance so far. We would have won if Schürrle would have defended Milner properly. Furthermore, we defended a lot better than in the previous matches. The two mistakes I saw from Mourinho: He let Willian play too long, he was just shit today. And his inclusion of Drogba is just inacceptable.I doubt that other world class coaches like Simeone would have played in a different way today. @the guy pointing out Mourinho's style of play against Barca with Real: It was the only chance to cope with that great side that time. Every team which tried to play against Barca back then with an own attacking football, got massacred. So that's just an invalid argument. kellzfresh and stroey 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cholo 428 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 I think Mourinho chose this rather defensive approach because he knows that we haven't been stable in the defence lately.

Happy? hHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA if Mark Huges was our manager he could do this. Why can't he repeat what he set us up to do last year? Why does it got to be all out bus parking?Or you could do a Bayern and win 7-0, which Real Madrid were clearly capable as they shown when they fucked Bayern themselves last season.

bababoom 4,478 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 We have changed our style though, that doesn't mean we were going to go all out attack against the champions in their backyard, we would have got slaughtered. We had chances to counter today but everyone was so sloppy. Against 10 men i have no excuses, we should have been the team controlling the match. kellzfresh, The Skipper, Barbara and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might be happy but I doubt Roman is happy with the way we played today. Regardless of how you slice it, we didn't play like a big club today but like a small one scared to death of losing. The only reason we've "defended better" is because we have 10 men behind the ball camped in our half. And you mention Simeone but I've watched Atleti a lot over the past 2 seasons and while they might be boring sometimes, they are never so negative. Plus it's comparing apples to oranges because the cost of this Chelsea squad is much more than the Atletico one and we have much more flair players. Mourinho's tactical performance today was boring and predictable. We never deserved to win that game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one is requesting Jose to go all out, yep we had 2 chances after they were down to 10 men. Like I said a few pages back, the worst thing about this is that it has been PREDICTABLE. If they had 11 men I bet we would be happy with 0-0 draw like at MU last season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post! Fernando 6,591 Posted September 21, 2014 Popular Post! Share Posted September 21, 2014 Have nothing to reproach Mourinho. He put the team I thought myself should have started and got a point. However, it still worries me that he has to bring Drogba ahead of Remy.... xPetrCechx, Cholo, Barbara and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joker10 946 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 My opinion of Mou always been he is the best reactive manager in the world. Unfortunately that is the man who's strength always is playing reactive, he is at his best when reacting to the other side initiative and strength. He will never be a manager that will impose his team own strength on respectable sides. Not taking anything away from him, because no one is better at installing "Us vs the world mentality" then Mou. Which led to his 2 CL victory, because no gave Porto a chance, and no one did when Inter faced Barca.Unfortunately with this team, this side is as good and complete as any side in the world. This side is much more suited to playing on the initiative and being aggressive, it is a complete waste to play like that with players like Hazard, Cesc, Oscar, etc. Ultimately i don't think this team can achieve its potential with Mou, but we will win our share of titles no doubt this team is too good not to win anything. I was hoping Mou would be aggressive this season on the counter. But games like this was so disappointing, didn't even look for the win until they went down 10 men, then after the goal we went back to passive and defending mode.
