Didn't Chelsea win the league the season after he left?
I'd take some of that chaos lol.
so a team that won the title without him, but flirted with the relegation zone with him? can’t wait

I"m your other mind. Yes you care about how we play. Yes you care about how turgid our performances have been.Who are you?
Edit: meh who cares, no point in stirring the pot more.
Remember you love me in the cricket thread ok bear!Can we vote which ones?
Yeah, but you see that doesn't matter because the injuries are to attackers but we are still conceding and losing and so clearly Mourinho is shit. OK?We have our two biggest goal threats injured
I'll put you and Spurrific in charge if you like, that'll work, right?Can we vote which ones?
Hmmm, stick to the cricket.I"m your other mind. Yes you care about how we play. Yes you care about how turgid our performances have been.
He is not the messiah. He is just a naughty boy!
erm, they also won the title with him the year previous mate.so a team that won the title without him, but flirted with the relegation zone with him? can’t wait

I dont see how we can judge Mourinho on this season at all. You only have to watch the games to see half the players are fucked which is why we can play well in short patches but cant sustain it, they look tired and we are seriously lacking options in the attacking areas.
We have attacking midfielders trying to fill in as forwards, we have had so many injuries, we have unsettled players, we have players that are declining, and we have a manager trying to sort this out mid season.
I keep reading "but we should have enough in this squad to beat Norwich or beat Southampton" and yes but when the squad is so disjointed, tired, incapable of playing at a faster tempo or pressing, and to be fair a good number of these so called better players are living off past reputations and need replacing.
Mourinho may prove not to be the one but he needs a pre season and full season. If it were up to the fans klopp would have been out during his 1st season and so would our last manager. They all need time
This is what I don't get. I mean I understand that players get tired, but why are we completely gassed? Are we training to hard between games under Mourinho? Except Aurier, who is "ironically" the one playing the most minutes, any player playing a couple of games in a row ends up playing with 0 energy. Even when we got 7-8 days between games there is no spark.
Generally speaking I think Mourinho has done well, and it is not like we were a high energy team under Pochettino the last 12-18 months either, but we seem to be getting worse by the game at the moment. Lucas, Alli, Winks and Bergwijn looked like they were playing extra time in a world cup final after 30mins against Norwich. Just exhausted. Tired is one thing - this was another level.
He’ll end up coming round to my way of thinking. Just like in every other thread. When you’re only 18 you get chirpy at first until you realise you’re in the wrong don’t you @Spurrific?I'll put you and Spurrific in charge if you like, that'll work, right?
Let's face it, he'll take your mantle on here one day.He’ll end up coming round to my way of thinking. Just like in every other thread. When you’re only 18 you get chirpy at first until you realise you’re in the wrong don’t you @Spurrific?
I just think people need to write this season off in their head and give Jose a full preason and few transfer windows to inject his philosophy.
You're just asking for disappointment mate.Nah, I’m not writing off the season yet. I don’t know where it will come from but win somehow on Saturday and then try not lose again until we get at least Kane and sissoko back and you never know. No other team seems to want to grab the last CL place and are very erratic.
Mate, we're going to win it all.You're just asking for disappointment mate.
Just accept it now and you'll feel better for it.
Its the hope...
Weirdly though Jan looked more lively than he has for a while. And he played 2 hours. I was one who was thinking his legs had gone and he was done, but Wednesday makes me think otherwise.
It's the turgid, risk averse, submissive and insipid football that he serves up is the biggest concern. It's the square peg in round hole team tactics and formation that is alarming. All i'm asking is for the players that he has available are played to their strengths.If you were a batsman and I took your cricket bat away, how many times would you fail? Judging him on this season when he’s joined mid way and is having to deal with an injury crisis is so short sighted and unfair it’s unbelievable.
Thing is that some of it is down to the outlook/attitude of the fans. I would say that 0% of fans are happy with how things are but some are waiting to see how things pan out in the summer/next season and some have made their minds up. The latter are only going to get more and more wound up.I like this thread.... Fight fight fight... Should really all meet up and fight this out.. Beats fury wilder 3 any day
Look why do we have to be absolute when judging Jose... He is either great or shit. Constructively I would have expected greater improvement and really don't like the moaning about players because if you're a player... What does that say about them when hearing it? I also think the tactics and approach are poor and making the players look worse than what they actually are.
The other side of the coin is Jose hasn't had much to work with in terms of players and it's been an intense four months.... Players also got to look at themselves...
It is turning sour quickly though and shit needs to be sorted. The thing is do we trust him with the money when there is a risk that things don't improve or that things continue as they are with the tactics and approach to games? I'm not convinced.
