Jose Mourinho

[Jamturk]

Seeing as we're sticking the boot in, I have to say that Windy has managed to become one of the most irritating people on Spurs Twitter.

Hugely self serving, and only interested in confirming his own biases. He even managed to make the whole BLM thing about him at one point. It was quite something.

I quite like him and his podcast.

Ahh mate you have made my day entirely by saying this, absolutely cannot stand the guy. The way he went about the BLM thing was ridiculous and at best his heart was in the right place and he was going about it wrong, at worse he has found the things to improve his own brand. That serious stuff aside I just find him insufferable when it comes to football.

I found myself having a lot of arguments with people who wanted to stick the boot in on Jose about defending a 1-0 lead. What annoyed me was I like to debate people that come at each situation earnestly and not just pick a cliche about Jose which was so evidently true on the way the game went yesterday. I mean for fuck sake him brought two attackers on late on.

I wouldn’t get too upset over the views of those two nonces tbh. Windy is a fucking weirdo who follows the youth teams about religiously, constantly saying “oh this [enter obscure youth player] is going to make it big” only for them to be released the following year and Nathan Clarke masturbates to Microsoft Excel spreadsheets.

What's wrong with that? Asking for a friend.

Spurs twitter as a whole has become irritating. All anti Jose, anti ENIC/Levy and moaning about anything and everything. Zero faith in anything the club is doing.

Checked his recent twitter output and it's broadly positive of the game and the tactics. I don't agree with him on Jose, but he's entitled to his opinion as much as anyone else. He can articulate his opinion, which is what I want from a fan podcast.

We need to get BBLG on there to let them know how bloody great everything is.

I came off it myself. Between that, covid, politics and even toxic wrestling fans, it just wasn't worth it anymore.

I don't go on there much either tbh. Toxic now.

Funnily enough i used to follow him, but have since unfollowed, followed again and swiftly unfollowed again ! Initially found his news/views on our youth set up interesting but some of the stuff he now comes out with, especially regarding that big old nasty Mourinho bloke and how horrible he is upsetting these poor hard done by footballers, it just does my head in. He's a big wet , the sort of bloke that wears a hard hat and goggles when playing conkers (after erecting a Health and Safety approved scaffold to get the conkers from the tree).

‪Mourinho is a very smart man. He sets up himself to be the winner or be right in every situation. He says we can’t compete against Chelsea so if we lose he will be right but if we win he will be a hero who did the “unthinkable” ‬

‪It’s also funny how he complained that the squad is too big but now says he expects there to be more injuries ‬

 

[buckley]

I think when he says the squad is too big he means it is bloated by having 6 or 7 players in the squad that are not up to the standards we require .

'Interested in the youth set up'. A disconcerting phrase if ever there was one. In all seriousness, I find it genuinely odd. Support the lads coming through of course but the whole point of progressing through is working out who's good enough and who ain't. Support the first team and get trust a manager who has won a pot or two.

Jose’s comments in presser basically saying the FA decided we have no chance as we play Tue, Thu, Sunday and Chelsea play Sat, Tue, Sat so they can play their best team and we can’t so we have no chance. “I would like to compete for Europa but I don’t think we can”.

Now sure I get that he’s sending a message to the FA that the fixture scheduling is harsh but surely saying this will make our players who are picked give up hope or do people think this is Jose mind games to try and downplay our chances so it ramps up the pressure on Chelsea or a bit of both?

I'm pretty sure he doesn't communicate to the players via press conference, and the collective attitude on the training ground and in the meeting rooms will be completely different.

If I wasn't all in on Jose before, I 100% am now. I will back the guy to the hilt after yesterday's bollocks.

totally !!

I love the fact that he will not sit back and take it

After we got f****d by shit ref decisions against Chelsea, Harry would say "the ref didn't mean to make a mistake". I used to get so mad at this - I want our manager to throw his toys out the pram and have a tantrum. Poch too (the Mike Dean incident at Burnley aside) was far too nice).

If anything I want Jose to turn it up a notch

Same, I was looking forward to him going mental after that but sometimes actions speak louder than words and him walking off and refusing to comment and let all the other managers and pundits do it for him was genius. He’s certainly very very good with the media, unless he’s in full meltdown grumpy mode like at end of man.u, otherwise I’d say he’s the master of the press mind games along with fergie.

 

[Dov67]

for as long as I have been on this forum I have been saying our game is corrupt. We think refereeing scandals are only for Italy, and we think doping only happens in cycling and athletics.

If anything VAR has demonstrated this even more - previously you could argue crazy decisions were because the ref was unsighted, the angle wasn't right, it happened in a split second etc. But now there is no such excuse - the VAR ref can watch an incident 10 times in slow motion on a screen and we still get decisions like the 2 against Sheff Utd and Bournemouth last season and too many other you could mention.
