I think our assistant secured his role by winning it in a raffle....We can safely assume this new assistant manager is worse than his last.

True, but that should be resolve in private. Mourinho has done this public criticisms in the past, and I can't recall if it worked in any player. It's a very bad tactic for a group leader.
Unless we know what's already happened behind closed doors I can't get into this, all I know is that this player is still not playing anywhere near the levels people expected him to be playing at. If he can't motivate (which seems awfully likely right now) then his managers frustrations are warranted. IMO of course.True, but that should be resolve in private.

I'm not defending Ndombele, I have to work on the assumption that he's fit enough to play but has some issue I'm not aware of that stops him giving his all. I just don't think Jose being Jose and making it a public issue is a good way to go.How long are we going to have to put up with Ndombele's half arsed displays? It's obvious that he's been trying to improve his mentality and conditioning behind closed doors but the message isn't getting through. As much as I'm not a fan of calling out players in public you have to say he is 100% in right, if this doesn't give him a kick up the backside then nothing will - we just can't afford to carry these players especially not now.
Jose’s main specialty convincing everyone that he’s overachieving when he’s in fact underachieving actually works again lol
He’s finished
Everyone focusing on the Ndombele comments but Skipp will be feeling 10 feet tall after hearing that after being subbed off at half time.
Come on, how long is this gonna go on for?
This is just nonsense shit throwing at Mourinho for yet another forced narrative just because people don't like him, yes he has called out players in the past in public IMO for the wrong reasons and he has thrown players under the bus again for all the wrong reasons but he's he right about Ndombele, if he's not getting a tune out of him behind closed doors then what is he meant to do?
If I were Levy, I'd be on a plane tonight over to The Bahamas and sit down with Uncle Joe and say I've monumentally fucked up here and need you to put your hand in your pocket and give me a few million to pay Mourinho to fuck offThe sacking talk is nonsense if only for the fact that Levy isn’t paying off Mourinho 6 months after paying off a still-unemployed Poch.
He wasn't that good out there tonight - Burnley played around him - that's not good enough.I think Skipp has done enough in the 1 and half games to have secured himself a starting role in plenty of games from now until the end of the season. Very impressed with him. Clever footballer.
Don't play him? Wait? This is top level football, either the footballer wants it or he doesn't ...Don't play him, or wait until he changes. Exposing him in public is not going to improve anything. It will make things worse
No, it's probably right. But, still it is a risky business by a manager to say something like that about a player to the media.8 months at the club and the guy that came in a month after he arrived is currently out performing him ... He shouldn't need be offended by the words of his manager when he is letting himself down.

Why no one calling Poch out for spending a club record money on an disinterested and unfit player but shooting Mourinho for stating facts.
Well, he down played it prior to the Norwich game didn't he? I mean, he made light of it? Swings and roundabouts.No, it's probably right. But, still it is a risky business by a manager to say something like that about a player to the media.

Instead of calling everyone pathetic, what are you seeing that the vast majority of us are not?Yeah 3 months - pathetic mentality from these 'fans'
