The Mourinho Thread

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Let's unban the Koppler guy or even those Galatasaray ones.

Jack the Red .. yes ,, but not those guys from PSG or Gala

I meant that it would be less hostile if the people fighting in this thread right now supported rival clubs.

[lionsden 4,689]

But have you ever wondered why Arsene is loved by every fan out there?

I also wonder why managers like Ancelotti,Klopp, Guardiola are well loved despite having recent success (since that's what you are implying with wenger comment i.e not seen as a threat). perhaps because they conduct themselves in a dignified manner and play attractive football.

Oh so its a popularity contest? Shit, all this time I thought it was about winning matches. What is this Xfactor? The shit people come out with. Cringe worthy!

[Fernando 6,375]

this here is such a happy family of "supporters" the last couple of pages is such a melee. every1 attacking every1.

It's because we lost.

A lot of little kids here are left feeling depressed, angry, confuse and all that.

Has been a while since we won nothing in a season.

Even in shit seasons we won something, but what the heck that's how this sport is.

I will vouch for this, we was a more likable team under Carlo. That first season brought massive respect towards us.

Pity what happened to him second season.

He should have had the money that AVB, RDM and Mourinho are getting to rebuild the team.

Roman took the juice punch out of him and left him to dry. smh.

Exactly. Most of the non Chelsea or utd fans were rooting for us to pipe Man utd to the league title because of ancelotti. He's a model professional and total gentleman. We played our best football in years under him too.

But Carlo is at Real Madrid, just like how Mata is at United. Why cry about things that cant change? Mourinho may be harsh at times, he may make a lot of enemies and yes he makes mistakes but he is the most passionate manager we have had in a long time.

I dont get why people are complaining about every little thing. We just made 3rd last season and got knocked out the group stages of the Champs league. Theres been a big improvement this year and next year can only get better. Whats the problem? Why does it matter now that no-one else likes Jose? It didnt matter when he was winning trophies. What a fickle bunch of fans we have here. Only a matter of time before we win something and all those doubters will come running back.

Well Jose's had made plenty of enemies and made us even more unlikable without anything to show for it this season. insult upon injury.

We could always win Britain's Got Talent next year?

No one gives a shit

No one gives a shit

that sums up your philosophy NOT MINE

[lionsden 4,689]

No one gives a shit

Well some of us actually do.

[Polo7 3,496]

Would you have had we won the league?

[TacticalBlues 2,817]

Most people (me included) in the past few days after clicking on this thread:

But seriously this thread has been pretty embarrassing of late.

[Joker10 946]

How dare you! We should be winning the title and the champions league every season! We want a better manager, like Jurgen Klopp who has won sooooo many trophies this season. We deserve better. /end sarcasm.

The fact is when you play dire football and when you play like Norwich or Sunderland against good teams, trophies are expected. That is the nature of the beast, when your football style is shit and all you care about is result then trophies is only measure of success at that point.

If you play good and sustainable football then you have other ways to measure success. For example it gives you optimism for next season, and at a club like Chelsea with so much resources you expect it to be fixed. I don't believe parking the bus and being ultra conservative against any decent sides is a sustainable approach. It is a reason why we have dropped so much points against regulation contenders. Its difficult switching your style in such an extreme way, it makes almost impossible to have an organized and cohesive unit on the pitch. It is why we can't create for shit and why some are wondering what do the team do at practice because it doesn't look like we practice passing and building attacks. Sunderland and Norwich have literally given us a taste of our own medicines. It doesn't take a master class tactician to play that style.

Finally it also hinders the manager ability to identify the team weakness. For example after listening to him this week i am not sure if he knows this team weaknesses. For example his comments on Ramires-Matic partnership for next season was weird, Ramires has his uses but being a Chelsea regular is not one of them. Yeah we have a striker issue, we all know this but we have other holes and this point i am not sure if Mou knows this. So i truly cant say if this season has given Mou the opportunity to access the team weakness and identify its needs.

btw good football for me does not mean a lot of goals or sexy football. For me it is something we can build on, i am not sure what we can build on the way we have played.

[lionsden 4,689]

Would you have had we won the league?

Yes, I would have been happy and celebrated the victory as a fan of course but I would never accept or agree with Jose's method and way of doing things regardless of the trophies. You can be successful without being a complete twat ala Ancelotti, Klopp,Guardiola et al.
