The documentary is obviously designed to put Jose in a good light and to be honest it's doing a really good job. I reckon Jose was all over this when he heard that Amazon were filming, he's absolutely made to be in front of the camera and he owns every scene he's in.

I wouldn't say it's designed to be that, as they'd already agreed and commissioned it before he was even conceptually close to being at the club.

It's designed to be watchable and entertaining, and he's probably the only affable 'TV personality' in the entire club it seems. God knows what it would have actually been like with Poch, but I can't imagine it would be as funny as it is - especially when things are sour, as we saw in his press conferences. That will be the main reason why it's Mourinho-centric - he's watchable, and has saved it from being more like "Tottenham Hotspur - Is Berry Shit here"

If that’s going to happen for me it’ll be decided on the pitch.
True I agree mate that the results and performances will obviously be the key factor but I think the documentary won't make any negative pre-conceived perceptions of Jose from our fans any worse lets put it that way :)

It would have to have been on ‘Prince Andrew Interview‘ levels of disaster not to improve his image as I had the bar set very low :LOL:

Loved the win vs Man.City, seeing the behind the scenes of that has got me so buzzing for next season. Also sometimes in the matches against lesser opposition I'm kind of thinking why isn't Jose earning his money but against Man.City his team talks especially at half time etc were spot on, he told us to be more nasty and to focus on the players they had on yellow cards, then we managed to get Zinchenko sent off and won 2-0, brilliant stuff from Jose, get him more players he wants and we can do big things.

The thing is, I think the Man City player got himself sent off on his own, I do not think we got him sent off. As far as I recall, and 'All or Nothing' did not really show this, our players did not surround the ref waving imaginary yellow cards when Zinchenko blocked Winks on the halfway line, the ref just rightly gave him a second yellow for a professional foul.

Possibly but I like to believe it was down to Jose and the players.

Having a manager who cuts the bullshit is honestly quite refreshing.

Nowhere for Levy to hide if we don't get one now, Jose couldn't have made it any clearer that he needs a CF.

No longer do we have to read between the lines with stuff like “time to be brave”. He wants a striker. The board want a striker. We are working to get one. Simple.

Recent reports that Mourinho is looking at this season rather dissapointed and «depressed» because he haven’t signed a striker, is for me a bit worried. Endure when you don’t have what it takes rather than play yourself down before it has even started. Is this the season where everything goes to shit and Mourinho blames everything on why we didn’t sign a striker? Fucking hell....

What reports mate? He literally said today he expects the club to sign a striker. He's been very optimistic about this upcoming season all throughout preseason.
