Very nice seeing the early tactical change and the presser after... If Dier + Winks start against Bournemouth though it's all moot
Just remember this when we inevitably lose a few games due to our inadequate defence and CDM, Jose can win us trophies but levy will need to give him 3-4 top class players to help him.The guy is just absolutely elite.
Not necessarily.Very nice seeing the early tactical change and the presser after... If Dier + Winks start against Bournemouth though it's all moot
I don’t know how that change worked exactly but It did. First time I’ve thought that the manager has outsmarted next for ages haha Jose clearly world class coach.When Eriksen came on tonight my heart sank and I expected us to become even more porous at the back. But Jose must have fired Eriksen up because he was a completely different player. I thought Moura was doing well when Jose hooked him off for Sissoko. I expected that to cut down our attacking options but instead we pushed on. The only conclusion I can reluctantly reach is that Jose Mourinho knows more about football tactica than I do. Who'd have thought?
Sissoko was a clever change to make as well, they'd got in a few times down our right after it got to 2-2 and they did virtually nothing after that.
It’s all about generating a team first culture and siege mentality in the squadThought he was very classy to apologise to Eric Dier for subbing him off as his first post match comment. Nice stuff.
Hadn't thought about it that way but good point and hopefully it will give them something to think about!Guy hasn't put a foot wrong so far and if this is his tactical baseline then next time things get stale etc, which they will, the players might want to think twice about putting the club in a position where it has to back them or the head coach.
Some on here would need to take note. If we are to turn this season round we need the whole club to stick together, fans included.Thought he was very classy to apologise to Eric Dier for subbing him off as his first post match comment. Nice stuff.
Anyone else’s gonads grown significantly in the last week?

Great job today, he managed to up the pace in the 2nd half but again I feel like what happened is great news because he learnt a bit more about the team. I reckon Rose is on his last legs as a starter now and Winks/Dier should fear the chopping block as once Ndombele gets that opportunity there will be no turning back.
Still feel a lot of the defensive issues in the back 5 won't be sorted until a transfer window, I know Jose is a good manager but I think getting a tune out of this defence without some upgrades might be a step too far.
