The English Football Thread

Through all season we were dragging on those one goal wins...fearing of conceding till the end of almost every match. Football we played was generaly decent, but ending product, or better say our attacking was piss poor. Mourinho fixed defense, he didnt do ANYTHING in our attack. He brought few players (Willian, Schurrle, Salah, Etoo), he made certain players play better (Hazard), he made the team play counter football, but even in those games where we played counter football, dont get fooled that we are some world class counter attacking team. It was more on opponents mistakes (like Torres goal vs City) than actualy outclassing them (there were such games too, but few). When we play against team that parks the bus, Mourinho is CLUELESS. Yes we lack two or three players, but same could be said for Liverpool or any other team. Mourinho simply didnt know what to do against West Ham, Villa, Palace, West Brom. And then after FOUR such games, where we were piss poor, Mourinho and the players couldnt find the way how to beat Sunderland too. The refs fucked up sometimes, but they also did some favours to us. Still, refs aside, if you are better team, you will beat Sunderland with difference and refs can try as much they want....

Our attack is terrible, SAS alone scored around 50 goals, we have 67 combined. If we had SAS, we would score more goals sure, but Im sure they wouldnt put 50 of those for Chelsea like they did for pool this season. We simply dont know how to play in attack. We rely on Hazard, on flashes of individual brilliance, Oscar looks nothing like playmaker, Willian makes bad decisions, etc...

I dont want Mou to leave, he can make team better next year, but with this approach, we will still bottle it against small teams more often than not.

We bottled it this year and there should be no excuses by Mourinho or whoever.

So Mourinho is clueless but you don't want him to leave?

Why would you want someone clueless to stick around? Company?

You say he can't coach players to attack but you're too cowardly to come out and say you want him out.

No I think he has one more year to show improvements. He was clueless about attack this year, but he can change that next season.

And speaking of cowards, arent you one who is talking about ref-lpool conspiracy? Yeah bring on excuses...

This is why I can't take Liverpool seriously as a title winner or an elite side. Not only has EVERYTHING gone their way this season but they're terrible defensively.

They'll finish 4th next season, 3rd max. They won't be able to maintain the level of intensity and will actually need to rotate their squad. This current Liverpool side would get utterly blown away by any good European CL side. Bayern, both Madrid sides, Barca, any side really would put 5 past this defense.

No I wasn't.

I just don't get how you can think he's clueless about something, yet want him to stick around. Either you're comfortable with setting low standards for us or you simply don't have the courage to stick by your views.

Personally I think we've actually got direction for the first time in a while and Jose has my full backing - something I wouldn't give him if I thought he was clueless.
