Jose Mourinho

[king26]

And only one of those came from actual team play. Bergwyn's goal came from a piece of individual skill.

Its shocking.

He absolutely needs to go.

We had two shots on target, at home, against an unremarkable team.

I wouldn't say Man Utd are an unremarkable team. With the amount of money their team cost you would expect them to be better, but many of those players are still really good.

 

[Jamturk]

Jose just is'nt a Spurs manager, he has the wrong footballing DNA.

Mourhino I am sure will play attacking football against West Ham his past record shows he always plays pragmatically against teams he fears I would go so far as to say this game will be the last this season we play defensively except possibly the Arsenal game.

To be fair mate before the injuries and poor run, some of the counter attached football was fantastic quick incisive play a joy to watch.

I'm trying to put things into perspective. United was playing good before the break. We were shit. Both teams had totally different mind set before the game. Of course Mourinho is a pragmatic. So I think (or want to belive) he wanted not to loose to build the team confidence a little bit against a team that is above us in the table and beat us once already this season. Still, the progress in our game was very easy to see. We were finally playing as a unit. Before covid we had 11 players on the pitch, now we finally had a team. Everybody knew what they had to do. That is encouraging. Still there is a lot to improve in transition and attack. Hopefully players like Lo Celso, Alli and Ndombele will help with that. But we definitely made a progress and that is something.

The approach was right, it was just executed poorly especially in the second half.

 

[Deleted member 27995]

Thought it was a game of two halves in the sense first half you could actually see what the outfield players were trying to do. Second half, Ole made changes and we seemed to lose shape/discipline and it went to shit the deeper we got.

Probably all end in tears as folk keep saying, but when hasn't it in the last 'x' amount of decades for us?

 

[ItsBoris]

The only morons here are the mugs backing this "has been". It's ok keep sucking it up and fooling yourself, this is only going to end one way and sadly too many are too blind to see it at the moment....

I'll leave you guys now to come up with more elaborate excuses for this dinosaur as we fall further and further away from where we were not so long back...

If you're basing that off his history, he's won at every other club he's been at - is that not correct? How much has he won in the last 10 years compared to Spurs?

Suddenly we're doomed because we drew with a team that spent about 200 million upgrading their team last summer? 5 or 6 of their players would break our transfer record. I think we should have some perspective and give it time for Jose to build a team, which he's done pretty well everywhere else.

 

[Bobby TwoShots]

39% possession, 3 shots, at home against a team outside the top 4 is a joke. We won’t win many games playing scared football. And it’s brutal to watch. I understand always backing your team (and manager) but I don’t get why people think this is a blueprint for success.

 

[jurgen]

We got absolutely suckered by this story of him developing a radical new style of attacking football didn’t we. It’s a tale straight from the ‘saving ourselves for the next transfer window’ mould.

Hope his Midas touch brings a trophy before our eyes melt.

By the looks of your pic you're not far off.

Yeah he knows how to win trophies.

Jose had five windows to build his squad at Man Utd since he took over in the summer of 2016, he signed 11 players at a cost of £360m at a net outlay of £285m.

After he left they've had to spend another 200 million?

That sounds anything but pretty well.

In contrast what was Pochs net outlay per season with us, something like £20 million a season?

That's perspective,

 

[Thewobbler]

I'll give it one more season but i cant see how were going to get any better if there is no transfer kitty for jose to spend. Jose might be looking to offload the likes of ndombele but cant see many clubs throwing the cash around in the summer.

Are you a football fan or an accountant? I couldn’t give a monkeys what’s been spent, I love Poch but apart from giving us a consistent Top 4 finish, he won us nothing, whilst Utd went on to win 2 trophies and finish above us on 1 occasion.

The fact Utd spent £200m after Mourinho left is a pointless argument. I’d actually argue that Poch has left us in a similar position of desperately needing a refresh after refusing targets.

I cannot understand the frustration people have with Mourinho. Yes he might play “boring” football, but quite frankly I’m bored of not winning anything. I’ll happily take 3 years of Mourinhos way with a real chance of winning something, than another “project” manager.

Give the man who has won trophies at every club he has been at, longer than half a season before you judge him. If it does all in end in tears, so what? Doesn’t every manager departure end in that way anyway?

Why are you so blinded with the past and his historic trophy haul.. There is absolute no guarantee that because of his previous silverware, he'll roll up here and pull a cup out of the hat ... From what I've seen so far I'm convinced that he'll delivery nothing other than misery.

He obviously fears Norwich then!

 

[LeParisien]

If you have 200m to spend you don’t need to get José. Bring in someone cheaper who plays good football and can foster some optimism.

Bad appointment but many on here thought it would be justified if he won us an FA cup because he’s a serial winner. He hasn’t taken a club to the next level since inter milan so people were willing to overlook the fact it had been 10 years since he had kicked a club on. You can have your FA cup with Jose but only if you give him exorbitant sums to spend/waste. That ain’t us.

Inter milan was the last time he overachieved with a team. The trophies he won with the worlds two richest clubs were not very impressive.

A lot of fan's are blinkered where poch is concerned, yes we all loved him but the decline set in under his watch which he struggled with.
If poch had stayed another five years he still would be waiting for his first trophy, the man just doesn't win anything but conversely Jose does.
