Has it really come to this? Fuck me this squad is embarrassing. We’ve managed to break the most successful manager in history.

If that doesn’t tell you all you need to know about the mentality then nothing else will. He has his faults and made his mistakes, but this is the same lacklustre bullshit that got Poch sacked. That’s a fucking fact. If I could be arsed I’d make a comparison video to prove my point but it won’t change anything.

Get the youth into that starting 11 immediately. Fuck anyone who is sub par from here on out.
So who brought these players in who's coaching them

Up until last Thursday night I could find the odd positive. In games earlier on there was a clear plan. Frustrate and counter against the teams it was needed for. Now it's just never wanting the ball and can't keep it for more than two passes when we get it. I can't see how things get better from here. It's the same thing against every type of opposition.

The sad thing is there are players here who have the ability, but for whatever reason they have become shells. Too many mistakes. Devoid of any confidence or control. Don't want to express themselves in any way.

I desperately wanted him to do well, I genuinely thought he would do wonders for us. There were glimpses early on. Now, though, I haven't got any impotus to watch a Spurs game for the remainder of the season. That's even with it being February and a cup final to come.

I want it also on record that I don't believe it is SOLELY on José either. The players have to be at fault and take their share of the responsibility.

The squad won't be overhauled and the easiest option is always the manager. José out for me. And I still want us to win with him in charge, I just don't see how we get those wins at it stands.

It's weird because it's almost at the point where I'm not sure how good it is in the long run for Kane's performances to be covering the cracks either. Kane's absence has exposed him even more really.

To be fair, 2 games doesn't equate to always, does it? Historically when Kanes been out for long periods Sonny has more often than not stepped up to the plate.
Yeah, this is some BS. Son has historically been excellent in Kane's absence.

Worryingly one of our tactics seems to be the long diagonal from the cb
But not from our cultured, passing cb who can spray the ball around.
Oh no, give it to dier to hoof it up there.
And Chelsea just pressed Davies until he had no option but to pass it back to dier, time and again.
So basic

I would like to bet that with a progressive attack minded coach these same so called duds will come good nearly all international players but their confidence is shot to pieces and are scared to try anything for fear of repercussions from the manager .
I am not having that the team that was top of the league has suddenly turned to crap .
If you can't see its Jose then we are seriously fucked .

Show me a fucking coach that will turn Dier or Sissoko or Winks or Davies or Lucas into world beaters.

FFS even under Poch, with 70% possession we used to spend 80 minutes watching winks and Sissoko passing sideways and fucking backwards 386 times before a moment of brilliance would paper over the cracks.

These lies needs to stop. If you have an anti Mourinho agenda then yay for you but stop fabricating wishful scenarios to suit your narrative, it proves nothing.

Does anyone actually think he'll get sacked?
It’s an interesting one. We’re safe from relegation, and probably don’t really need CL financially. COVID should be done by next season, so the question is do we write this one off now, and get everything in place for next season, or stick with what we’ve got until the end of the season? I still think we should give Jose a full season. I don’t like what I’ve seen so far, but we should give the bloke a full go.

Least a new manager would attempt to play some football, Mourinho tactics are akin to eye cancer
The best way to threat eye cancer isn't to stab yourself in the eye. (I'm not very good at analogies)

I can't see us brining in a good manager at this stage of the season. Maybe there's someone out there. I haven't really been reading the Next Manager Discussion thread.

Is he really wrong though about Kane?!?

Harry Kane has literally been directly involved in 23 of our 34 Premier League goals..

We’ve scored 1 in 3 without him on the pitch.

True but it's his job to find solutions. We're not creating opportunities and he pretty much just admitted that he isn't doing much coaching and rather is relying on Kane to score goals.
