Sorry, can't help it - I still like Jose, and pretty much always have, even when he's being a ****.

Even though he was managing Chelsea I used to still like him because even when he was being a **** he was humorous.

Since he went to Madrid though he’s just become charmless, sour faced and obnoxious imo.

I can't stand the man. Even more so now, with his negative football and his constant moaning.
He has a team of highly paid and very good players but doesn't let them play.

Man City unbeaten, +28 goal difference already and 8 points ahead of us, honestly it feels like they are going to walk the league this season.

Fucking oil money, I know this comes across as sour grapes but I just really hate that a team can buy success like that.

I’m not Boufal’s biggest fan, he’s always been very inconsistent and unreliable and when we were linked to him I said he’s a bit of a YouTube player (still would have taken him for 12m over Sissoko for 30m) but that goal was fucking stupendous.

Hope Southampton can win this. Pullis’s teams rarely deserve points.

Unfortunately the money gives you better chance of success it's not the be all of everything but it does almost guarantee the top prizes.

How they sell any season tickets to watch that crap every week is amazing in itself.

I hate Saints but am happy they've won here, West Brom were so negative. Horrible team to watch at times.

Agree with the lads in.here. Fuck Pulis and his anti football.

In fact that goal felt like a goal for football, it just felt right!

Totally agree. Hate Chelsea but at least when he was manager there he had that arrogant charisma.

Now, he's got a face like a slapped arse, and has done for sometime.

Today though was the first time I've heard him been honest and genuine.

Not sure it will last. He's just turned into a royal Wanker.

His achievements at Porto were immense, but everywhere else he's been pragmatic with an open chequebook.

Messiah? Special one? Get to fuck imo

Never liked Maureen.

I don't like managers who see themselves as the main attraction. Do your job, do it well, plaudits will come. These managers who pontificate and attention seek tend to be the ones who don't last long. Players get tired of it too. Success is all his, defeat is on others.

Can't wait to see him sacked again.

Agree about Mourinho, I used to like him too even though he was always still arrogant but the last few years he's just been constantly moaning, about referees, decisions, other teams, transfers etc. He is such a hypocrite too, complains about things only to then do the the thing he was complaining about.

The times in the past he's moaned when not winning after claiming only one team had been trying to win the game and look at what he's doing now with United, or moaning about other teams spending when he's spent a fuck load whilst being at United etc.

So true

I saw Stelling trying to stir up on “the debate” (dreadful show btw) the other week about Agueros injury and him being In Another country

Danny Mills rightly told him to shut up and pointed out he was an hour away in a safe country and Stelling started going on about him being in a pressurised cabin and it being bad for him egged on by the rent a gob that is Simon Jordan

Lost his fun uncle vibe a long time ago

Sky ex MNF / Neville + Carragher is generally well past it’s sell by date overall though

I don't disagree with you but the numbers would suggest Soccer Saturday is still as popular

The difference between Mourinho and Guardiola.

Guardiola seeks to build a complete team, a team that can bulldoze it's way to titles and honours, a team that play with vigour and swagger, a team that looks to continuously evolve, a team that looks to win everything and win it by being stylish.

Mourinho seeks to build a team that can control games and negate the opposition's attacks, limiting their influence on the game yet allowing his team to take advantage of any mistakes and moments they have further up the field. Yet, when the bigger boys come knocking it's defence first, never attack first, always defend.

Pep is winning, again.

Now they've both pretty much had an open cheque book, so any excuses Mourinho seeks are redundant. But you're starting to see why Pep is the better coach and if I was a pro I'd only want to play for one coach of the two of them.

Pep's team's regress once he's left.
Mourinho's team's regress before his exit.
