The Mourinho Thread

[Madmax 9,219]

Find it weird that Willian and Oscar were taken off on Boxing day and neither started here

Oscar was ill.

Jose going in on the media. What a beast! Loving it. Getting angrier and angrier as the post-match interviews come along.

Jose Mourinho, he said what he want

[DH1988 1,356]

Touchline ban incoming just in time for a big game if the FA decide so.. Which they will.

[Pizy 19,374]

As always, when José speaks the truth and calls referees out on their bullshit he'll get a hefty fine and possibly a ban.

That will probably in turn piss these cunts off and make even more obnoxious calls against us.

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

Jose, bang on about the witch-hunt by the media. The only real dive was the Ivanovic one vs West Ham. Cahill, Willian and Costa didn't dive but were protecting themselves and/or evading an impending challenge. Oscar last season vs Southampton was a clear dive. Not every foul without clear contact is a dive. Most of these fucking hack journalists who've never played football before writing stupid articles about so-called dives should be ashamed. That's why I forever respect Gary Neville's stance on the diving hysteria, someone who has actually PLAYED the game at the highest level and has won everything, not some buffoons who have never kicked a ball.

This season alone, we've received I think 5 yellows for dives with the only dive being, in my opinion, the Ivanovic one. What the hell is up with the English game? And you can't even rescind them? Appalling.

Media bias we already know, referee bias, now that is new.

Not

Genius Jose again. Nobody will mention Chelsea not winning against Southampton. Everyone will talk about what Jose said

Sometimes, it's not even about that. I doubt Jose had that at the forefront of his thoughts. He just gave an honest opinion on an unacceptable situation.

What more can be said? He is the fucking BEST! So true nothing made about the decisions that went for Utd and City but all sorts brought up about Chelsea when we won going away.

When they attack us accusing our players jump into the Pitch and so the referee does not give us a very clear penalty I like to have a coach like Jose Mourinho which goes to forcefully defend our team. When we are attacked we have someone who defends us EVER. Therefore our coach is The Special One.

Mourinho also achieved that with his brilliant Mind games Jose remove all pressure gets our players because everyone will talk about Mourinho and not the players. He is a genius.

Mourinho's commands, we followed him.

[LAM09 7,100]

He always speaks his mind.

True, that's also what I think. I think that people often overcomplicate things what Jose says. I find that most of the times he just speaks his mind, especially when he's freshly frustrated.

[Eidur the Spider 4,515]

The media bias has always annoyed me. We don't get the credit that we deserve or we just get constantly trampled on in the media.

Example:

Martin Tyler. He has to be the most obvious anti-chelsea guy going, I don't know if its just me but today against Southampton when Hazard scored, just after that he sounded so damn depressed. He is a joke.

Last season, Gary Neville, who I believe is a breath of fresh air in the punditry stakes said something after Demba Ba scored against Liverpool that I hated, he didn't say 'great finish' or 'calmness from Ba'. He said 'Typical Chelsea, typical Mourinho' in a way that felt like it was a negative.

We don't make it easy for ourselves sometimes, diving especially, but it does feel like it's always Chelsea who are used as an example of the bad side of football, whereas the likes of Liverpool, Man City, Man Utd are always the beacons of light in the premier league.

I hate it, but I absolutely fecking love it when Jose calls them on their shit, in press conferences (grumpy one word answer Jose), post matches like above and in interviews during the week. I want him to have a go at Redknapp again so he can wipe that shit eating grin off his face again.

Up the Chelsea and tell'em Jose! :blue scalf: :blue scalf:

[illmatic 901]

"I think it is a scandal because it is not a small penalty - it is a penalty like Big Ben,"

Hahahahahaha the fucking Boss, another fantastic quote of Jose.

[Fernando 6,743]

Well it's funny I mentioned a couple of days ago that because Ivanovic diving shenanigans we will get a true penalty call and not get it due to the perception we have at this instance. And just like that we got it here.

Mourinho can say whatever he wants but he's just deflecting from the real problem.

He needs to rotate more, or the players he have for rotation are not as good to fill in, and he needs to have a word with Ivanovic to stop the diving.

Everything else is sensationalism and some of you guys buy into it like shepo.

Mourinho always do this to stop people talking about the team.

You're right for sure. People need to jump off this interview, it's irrelevant to be honest. It's a stunt and José deserves a lot of praise for that, but I don't buy it for a second lmao.

I may be a bit naive, but I do have the feeling he's spoken to Ivanovic and Cahill and the rest of the squad about diving. The 2004-07 team didn't have divers in it, sure there was an over dramatic Drogba - but never cheating. Though, if you look at his Real Madrid team in his first season they were as rough as it came (Ramos, I suspect, was the leader behind that albeit).

Mourinho knows PR and he's doing well with it.. But this is for them and the papers, not for us. We should see past it.

REAL SQUAD WANT TO PROVIDE RIPOSTE ON PITCH "Bring on Mourinho in the Champions League"

HERE WE GO!!!

Last year we had no chance. This year we can beat them, as we got a more complete team and of course mourinho can outfox carlo.

The one team I don't want to face is Bayern.

Pep just like mourinho are hurt after last year and this year are like a hurting animal.

Don't want to to take on that animal till the final or someone else eliminates them.

Gary Neville: Jose Mourinho attempting to put pressure on referees by saying there is a campaign against Chelsea

[Jase 43,479]

Scored 9 goals in our first 2 league away games this season; Netted only 10 in following 8. No back-to-back away wins since August. This is somewhat worrying.
