I would have won this game if I managed Spurs tonight.

Sorry I meant we would have had a shot on goal.

As much as we'd probably all like him to go it ain't gonna happen.

Daniel won't do it.

Not cut out for the job, with the players we have he’s making us look like stoke, fucking awful to watch & it’s not like we’re even winning playing this way

Very very worrying the way we're playing at the moment. What's scary is that if this goes into next season we could be in massive trouble.

Ah dear. No #BackJose hashtags then? Must only work for certain managers to have the funds to buy the players they need to succeed.

It's pretty clear this squad needs a serious rebuild. Getting Jose in in November was a calculated risk; if anyone could squeeze the last little bit out of this team it's him.

However it clearly hasn't worked, we've been progressively getting worse and worse. Need a serious rethink and a big clearout. For this, I'd much rather have a younger manager with a clear vision and a project (ala Poch five years ago) so we can start afresh and hopefully the new squad will be successful.

Pretty clear that Jose isn't that man, and this squad is dusted. Would love to get Nagelsmann in this summer but not a chance Levy cuts his losses this early.

What is the plan when we are attacking? Just give it to aurier to cross it? This fails constantly. So what is the plan after that or what is jose telling them to do differently?

I am genuinely at a loss?

Well we can’t argue that’s he’s organised the defence.

I wonder how he is defending himself today.

The most worrying aspect is how everything we do is so obvious.
Our passing is slow & telegraphed and easy to intercept or read.
Our movement is non-existent so we’re easy to mark.
Every time a player picks up the ball, they’re pretty much in the position Sky show before kick off.

The only players that move ‘between the lines’ are GLC, Ndombele & Lamela. Lamela is actually very good at drifting into space, he just generally fucks it up &/or takes too long when he receives the ball.

We haven’t got bad players & a coach with more progressive ideas and one who likes fluidity could get plenty out of this squad.

I was never a “Mourinho in” and actually predicted it would finish badly in record-time. Sadly I think I might be right.

He's earned £288,000 for the shite we've had to endure in the past week alone. He should be embarrassed enough to hand it back.

Excuse that now you Mourinho loving idiots. Have some self respect & admit you’re wrong for backing this ‘has been’ relic.
Said it once & I’ll say it again he’s George Graham Mk2

This appointment has cost us Poch’s pay out, his staff’s pay out, will cost us Jose’s exorbitant pay out and his staff’s, will cost us money on Ndombele when we shift him on for Jose’s master “plan” and it’ll cost us most of all when we’re relegated back to back to back to League 2.

Covid has ensured we can’t afford to sack him, as well. Brilliant. And before anybody tries to call me knee jerk, I wanted him out after Everton as well. It’s not just when we don’t win.
If we leave it too long we will get stuck with a load of highly paid cloggers that will take years to shift.

We have ballers at the club that suit a progressive pressing style of play at the club NOW.
