The Chels 2,502 Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Pardew said Wenger is better than Jose.Wow, just wow.That's a very misleading headline by the Daily Mail. How surprising. The actual quote was: 'I think everyone at Arsenal knows he’s done a magnificent job. For me, he’s the second best manager in Premier League history (behind Sir Alex Ferguson). Jose (Mourinho) hasn’t done enough yet.’ And it's hard to disagree with that. LDN Blue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDN Blue 7,903 Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 That's a very misleading headline by the Daily Mail. How surprising. The actual quote was: 'I think everyone at Arsenal knows he’s done a magnificent job. For me, he’s the second best manager in Premier League history (behind Sir Alex Ferguson). Jose (Mourinho) hasn’t done enough yet.’ And it's hard to disagree with that.The problem is.. Ferguson kept up his success throughout his United tenure. He had spells of defeat but more or less always recovered so that it was temporary. Wenger's success only came in the first half of his reign, from 1996-2003 you can say he is the second best manager, but for the last 11 years he's been actually quite bad. He wins on longevity, but he loses out in his failure to adapt. Mourinho simply loses on lack of longevity and I don't think that makes Wenger the best manager in the history of the PL after that.

DH1988 1,356 Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 hard to disagree with that? I think the quote is actually worse than the headline.Wenger has spent the last 10 years pissing on the years he spent building himself up.Baffles me how he still manages to hold onto praise in some corners of the journalist world Barbara, darrus and iseah100 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor Von Doom 258 Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Jose has accomplished just as much as Wenger in half the time.He's surpassed him. Not "accomplished just as much"More than double league titles. 2 CLs to Wenger's 0 and has records Wenger could only dream of having.

Fernando 6,743 Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Decent points made here on playing the youth lads.. That's not surprising. We don't do youth no matter what Mourinho said. It's better for us to stock pile them and sell them. Then buy ready made players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoyalBlues 4,050 Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 If we win either PL or CL or both this season, I believe we will see more youth in our squad next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fernando 6,743 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 I think enough is enough. Mourinho needs to have a word with the squad and tell them to stop diving. Is blatantly cheating and we don't want no one to do it to us. So we need to start first by putting our house in order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darrus 422 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho insists 'No regrets letting Frank Lampard go - we did it for the future of the club'Sounds as unconvincing as it gets, sorry Jose."Let's try and make everyone look good in one unpleasant situation" - well, ok, maybe it even would have worked if we heard it all back in August, but not now.Whatever spin gets put to it, it all comes to one thing - Lampard said he won't play for another PL club, and now he's playing for City.

Giving RLC less than 10 minutes in a dead rubber isn't exactly helping.He scored in a lot of important games for this club and the history of this club. Now he’s just carrying on and we are not so happy when we see that, but this is the reality.At least Ivanovic speaks his mind, none of this "happy for him" b/s.
