We must have the dumbest and most ungrateful posters on any football site.

Page upon page with drivel and not an ounce of perspective. We're injury plagued and playing important matches every 3 days. You lot expect the same eleven players to go full speed every match?

Are we perfect? Certainly not. Do we look better and get more results than the old regime despite major injury issues? Yeah we do, yet no manager has ever been given this little time by our "fans".

Have some patience and support the team and let's see where we are in a year.

I’ll tell you where we’ll be. Playing the same boring anti Spurs football Jose has always played. Chances are the stadium will start looking like the Gooners place with empty seats everywhere. Fans will be toxic just like ManU fans were. Jose needs to fuck off to Italy with his dinosaur football.

Mourinho’s previous teams used to have sound defences. Can’t understand why he can’t get our defence to play well.

Because he has’nt had much time to work with them on the training ground.

Since Mourinho has been here we’ve been playing 2 or 3 times a week most weeks leaving little time for quality training

That’s a little bit of a stretch. We look utterly rancid right now in a way we very rarely did under Poch.

That's just not true though. For the last year under Poch we looked just as bad, I'd even say worse, than what we see now. The only difference is we forget it, something the drastic improvment in points reflects.

What really fucks me off is that Jose is asking the players to do things they are not capable of. The attackers he's got to work with right now can't hold the ball up, so why the fuck are we just lumping it up the field and hoping? It's a tactic that is absolutely doomed to fail with these players, yet he's persisted with it through what's shaping up to be five losses on the bounce. Complete fucking disgrace that despite the woeful state of the squad falls squarely on Jose's shoulders.

It does look like some of the players can't be bothered, but has Jose told them to save their energy for the midweek game? He said the other day that we can't compete in both games.

Would be a bit stupid of Jose to focus on midweek game as there is no way we would do anything in the Champions League. We couldn’t beat Norwich so no hope against European giants in the latter stages. Would be best if we get knocked out next week and effectively bring an end this painful season now.

Every time they lump the ball in the air, we look vulnerable.
Have we got any more CBs on the bench? I reckon 7 of them should be enough.
