Or maybe he needs to convince the fans the most of the player here are not has good has the fans think or at least doesn't work has hard has they should. Yes, Mourinho had problems at chelsea, AVb had them too, Benitez, even Conte need to sent some guys away after being Champions.
Yes but hiding should not be the response if you work on something for two days.
Haha made me laugh!
with you on that- guy is just asking for the sack. How can he be so critical of his players this much? "I can only talk about the good ones- Matic... er... " . so what message does that send to the 'bad ones'- de gea? Antonio? Smalling? Bailly? Mata? Martial? rashford? etc..... This is as poor management as I have seen by a top manager. Today I actually got angry with Jose. I feel sorry for these players
didn't even play
Pep used whole year to injects his attacking idea and philosophy to City, Mourinho thought he can did it for 2 days.
Well they always hated him so feck them
The facts are that Real Madrid actually pissed on each and every team in Europe once Mou left them, having won 3 out of last 4 CLs.
Really, most people that get a dressing down in everyday society buck their ideas up at the thought of being fired I would find. Also, these are professionals as you say, they will have had criticism all throughout their careers and wouldn't have made it to where they are if they didn't respond in anyway.
He's not asking for brilliant football, just people to show for the ball.
Nice try.
We have a small window about 2 seasons before several players become too old and need replacement. I think due to a lack of viable targets and budget mou will accept his centre backs as is. 1 top left back, 2 midfielders at least 1 top quality and 1 top attacking talent preferably left footed. Thats about as strong a squad as one can hope for and frankly should be good enough to win the league. It will then become a coaching problem instead of a lack of quality problem.
That's true but what does it have to do with what i was saying? Even this year there were reports that Ronaldo and Ramos weren't seeing eye to eye.
Harmony at football clubs is over rated. Look at Roy keane literally nearly coming to blows with some of his team mates in the dressing room or on the training ground. That's what you need to win. You need a hard nose bugger who you know will be merciless if you let the club down or don't show desire. That helps keep everyone focused and on the same page.
I may be a paid-up member of the "that was definitely a meltdown" camp, but in fairness, that was kinda his whole point. Or as close to a point as he was straining to make amongst all the nonsense. When he took over Madrid they hadn't reached the CL quarters in, like, 8 years or something? The side he helped to build subsequently becoming a mainstay of the latter stages is precisely the kind of "heritage" he was waffling on about.
Ermm, we only have Matic and Sanchez as first team quality players who are near their 30s.
He gave them that belief. Until he got there, Real Madrid never got past the round of 16 for 8 straight seasons with their Galacticos. Mourinho broke the hoodoo hanging over Real Madrid. It was easier for his successors to build on that foundation and win plenty of CLs after him.
I have noticed this for months now. If we hadn’t won this game, his detractors automatically blame his tactics that he was too negative. I don’t know how a manager will instruct his team not to score when the chances come or tells them to deliberately screw up simple passes. It’s such a lazy analysis from the anti-Mourinho goons.
He won 0 CLs with Real Madrid. He had a total meltdown at the end of his tenure and was sacked. These are facts. Also the fact is that basically the same core of players plus a couple of youngsters won 3 out of last 4 CLs. So, they improved vastly without Jose. I give Mou 0 credit for Real's CL cups. Just like I give 0 credit to Moyes for Van Gaals FA cup, and sweet feck all does LvG have to do with Mou's EL and League cups at Utd.
I agree completely. It’s risky business for a manager to publicly rip his team in modern football, but Jose isn’t wrong, in my opinion.
Alderweirelds agent is trying to hawk him, but Levy is a bitch to deal with and i wouldn't be surprised if he asked for 75 million (while pointing to van dyjk), we can cope with the centre backs that we have. It's not ideal but with a better midfield the defence will not be tested as much.
IMO really need a good RW.
I will go bit by bit...
You think that Martial was the one running around the pitch and Mata was using his brains? Jose likes Mata because he is riskless, but what that actually means for the team in attacking sense I don't know. His attacking numbers are a clear enough indication of his risk averse playing style.
Even ignoring the fact that nearly every current top team presses, when teams are actually in our half we allow them to do too much.
It took a whole season to get his team to function the way it's doing this season. And Jose thought he could do it in 2 days? 2 days to undo seemingly what has been trained the whole season.
If I saw a plan and then saw flaws from players within that plan then I would be ready to blame the players. Jose bought Sanchez and Pogba, its on him to get those guys to perform. If you ask me, I don't think he has a plan to fit them in cohesive team together.
Jose Mourinho!
Yes it is.
So if Jose was the problem, how come the Galactico team that had Zidane, Fat Ronaldo, Guti, etc failed to get past the round of 16 for 8 straight seasons? I am sure you cannot answer that question...
