jellydog Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 Seriously though, is Jose really that good a manager? His trophy count would say yes, but besides Porto, he has either walked in to manage teams with a shed load of money, or an already title winning side, or a shed load of money and an already title winning side. Pretty decent manager I'd think Bob, but his personality wears so thin after a while. I think he has lost most of the dressing room, has way too many players not giving a concentrated 100%, and also too many players who have reached the end of their rope ability wise. Factor in Eva and Costa as well. He looked like a beaten man in his post match interview. One or more results like that and he may be ready to jump instead of being pushed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made it to 2.05 minutes. http://www.skysports.com/watch/video/10090807/jose-ref-made-an-important-mistake I once enjoyed his post match interviews,now it's completely and utterly boring. Not only boring but quite delusional.There was no way in the world that his claim of a penalty for Chelsea carries any credibilty ,not a neutral person who saw it would agree with him, the player was falling down apart from him disappearing it was not deliberate handball. But this is todays Mourinho, can never give credit to the other team and can only blame someone else for his teams pathetic displays. He also turns up mealy mouthed to his interviews looking like a bum can't even bother to have a shave. The Russian will have to accept that this can't continue, Chelsea 14th place unbelievable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post carmine Posted December 6, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted December 6, 2015 ^sorry don't understand. Why would Mourinho wish he had a or some Le Saux in his squad now? After recent terrorist attacks he was asked if all his players were making the CL trip to Tel Aviv. he said yes, i don't have any Graeme Le Saux's in my squad. Back in 2002 there was a similar fixture and the club offered players the opportunity not to go and eight chose not to. I'm sure you can read up on the rest. A couple of journalists wrote very eloquent articles on their opinions of his comment. its just another example of what kind of a person he is. He just can't help himself. Add to that Le Saux played for Chelsea for twelve years, good pro and still has links to the club. Anyway, Abramovich was watching the game yesterday so hopefully he will be off to some other league soon enough. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicog Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 ^I just googled his age is 28 so can't be an age decline thing surely. Maybe if he's run a lot more miles than other 28 year olds. Only seapok can answer this one! Yeah Smokes, that lad can certainly put in the miles. He ran along Hadrians Wall earlier this year and I emailed him and said, for a joke, "It's the Great Wall of China next". He replied that that was his next target. Knowing him, he wasn't joking. He's bloody loopy! What a crock. He should be at his peak about now. He's had a pretty injury free career compared to many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldgit Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Mourinho talks about some players that aren't showing consistency, week in week out. Well, Ivanovic and Fabregas are two players that have been consistently bad all season, but still Mourinho selects them at every opportunity. I'm sure if Costa hadn't thrown his toys out of the pram, he would have still been in the starting line up. This blind loyalty isn't working and hasn't been all season. Changes and fresh faces are needed to get out of the mire we are in now because, if he carries on this way, even Abramovich who's been very patient so far, will turf him out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Nemanja Matic and Cesc Fàbregas, in the engine room, have fallen away more than anyone else this season, while up front Diego Costa does not look fit or motivated and Eden Hazards staggering run of 25 games without a goal is ludicrous for the reigning PFA Player of the Year. The only bright note has been Willian, although his best moments have been his expert free-kicks not something for which José Mourinho can take any credit.When absolutely everything has fallen apart, it cannot realistically be about technical or tactical weaknesses it hints at an overriding problem in terms of fitness or psychology. It is probably a combination of the two and the pattern throughout Mourinhos career of his teams falling away..." http://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2015/dec/06/jose-mourinho-chelsea-champions-relegation-fight ] 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldgit Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Mourinho's body language was quite telling throughout the game. Very subdued, jaded looking, almost nervous and no exaggerated celebrations with the two goals. His last action was not to join his players on the pitch but to swiftly disappear down the tunnel. Meanwhile, on the pitch, there was no silver slime to be seen which meant Fabregas wasn't wanted while Ramires, who replaced him, ran himself to a standstill. That was the difference and, with Matic returning to his best, the defence were adequately protected and rarely looked troubled. Ivanovic continues to cause palpitations when confronted one on one, but it was a slightly better performance from him which raises him to the level of below average. Attack wise, I thought Willian was superb with Hazard only slightly inferior. Oscar put in one of his better displays while Costa was a bit more energetic than normal. I'm stunned that Remy hasn't been used instead of Costa. He was on for barely a minute when he faced up to their centre back, left him for dead with the drop of the shoulder but blazed it over the bar. With more games under his belt, that would have been nestling in the bottom corner. If it was me, he'd be a certainty for the game against Leicester with his pace. It was good to see all the players that were substituted, exchanging handshakes with Mourinho, by the way. Could be that they're all singing from the same hymn sheet at last!
