it was easy to fall for the charm offensive and think he was a changed man. regardless of what one thinks about Bale long term, when we needed a goal in multiple games and he barely got a sniff, it was pretty apparent that he was a systems guy and not a great manager. (and that system may be outdated). he is of the opinion that it is more important to fit players into his system rather than adjust the system for the players. maybe it works if he can buy most of the players he wants and that's the only way i would see him being a success in the future.

Argh!!!! My god seriously it’s a difference of opinion. The reason I said I’m done is because no matter what I say until I am blue in the face you’re going to disagree. That’s why I said I’m done. It’s done. Please stop quoting my posts. I’ve already put one idiot on ignore for disliking my posts without him explaining himself. Let’s just move on it’s done now right?The world class players were the ones why kept performing for him?
And they're the same ones who got it handed to them against City?
Tell me, which world class player was it that your beloved Mourinho kept ignoring, despite almost singlehandedly saving his job by scoring/assisting in the few games he was allowed to play in, didn't play in last week's final, therefore didn't get it handed to him, but ONCE AGAIN proved that the ego was a complete prick for not using him, by scoring a superb hat-trick yesterday evening?
You're absolutely right. Nothing at all to do with Mourinhos tactics.
Yet, all of this talk (directed towards you) would never be happening if you hadn't taken it upon yourself to call everybody out with the totally unnecessary post quoted below. And when you get called out yourself, you end by saying "I'm done talking about Jose".
Bless you.

Literally all or most of the games where we've gone ahead, parked the bus and got caught late on I think quite easily could have been wins under a different manager.

It’s interesting how some players liked him (Kane being the obvious one) and how according to most reports the majority of the squad was glad to see the back of him.
Kane wasn’t suffering under Mourinho but the team/squad was clearly not living up to its potential, as Bale has barely been bothering to hide.
looking forward to reading the memoirs in years to come

He couldn’t bring himself to play attacking football despite that being our strongest card to play.
Another Manager could have accepted being less compact but Mourinho puts so much of his ego into the team that he couldn’t bare it. Even against the small teams he wanted to counter attack.
Just the wrong man for our squad and what a relief to see proper football being played yesterday!

Is Levy the guy who runs Roma?
Edit: for some reason, I read it as Levy just saved us
I'll leave my fuck up for the world to see
