Jose Mourinho | Spurs manager

Joseball is all about conserving energy. Last he won the league with Chelsea they hardly rotated in the league at all
What he needs though are superstar attackers who can create themselves and exceptional passers in MF. He can then just sit back and play route 1. This does not work with Spurs and it did not work with us
That's the thing though, Pool and Spurs have proven that you can maintain a consistent XI and have a reasonably high pressing game through out the season. City do a lot of work while pressing but also rotate quite heavily. Maybe the sports science folks can speak up if the discipline has evolved to such an extent that Mou's philosophy is antiquated now. Ran a cursory google search and this turned up

I still can't fathom that 61% thought he'd win a trophy on Spurs.
He is completely finished. Imagine if Woodward did back him that final season. He would have gotten rid of Pogba and Martial for Willian and Savic. We would have been screwed.

Carabao Cup is a trophy though, it's possible for Mourinho to just play his key players on it and win it.
He really, really needs to hit the ground running next season to turn things 'round at Spuds...
There's something not right there though (as was clear while Pochettino was still there), so I'm not sure.

For real?
Technology is a plus when used wisely. Mourinho hating it wouldn't be a surprise as he is a dinosaur
Yeah, crazy not to use it.
Glad you've come around. Were you really one of those who defended that Sevilla presser? I'm interested in knowing what exactly you said. 2 years on from that shambles, I still can't figure out how people could stomach Mourinho serving up the crap we played against Sevilla and having then adding insult to injury by going on that rant about football heritage nonsense.
At the time I thought he was trying to protect players by knowingly saying stupid shit, so that headlines talk about what he said rather than how bad the players were. I thought that was by design so he can continue to work on them behind the scenes.
Just realised 5 years without a league title.
From 10/11 season to 19/20 he’s only won 2 league titles.
02/03 to 09/10 he won six league titles. And one of those years he was sacked in September. The other he lost to a very good United side.
He is becoming what he used to mock Wenger for. Mourinho was the guy who’d guarantee you a league title. He’s nowhere near that guy now.

Can't believe I was arguing with people on this board he needs sacking when he was our manager. He was never winning anything with Spurs. The biggest trophy they'll get is when he gets sacked.
There's a saying that goes 'the most foolish man in the room is the one that talks the most'. Words usually catch up and bite you in your butt. Jose is, today, exactly what he called Wenger yesterday.
Well it is Indykaila who the majority of charlatans would be insulted to be associated with. Of course while it doesn't take a genius to predict that Jose could be gone before the start of next season I don't see any chance of a Pochettino return.
If Mourinho looses today: game over.
But he was insulting the club. How would that be an acceptable deflection tactic to protect players?
Would love another Mourinho meltdown today.
Still dont know how Aurier and Rudiger gets so much game time. Its just really bad coaching in my opinion.
Levy is too stingy to sack Mourinho even of they fail to get a top 8 place this season. He’s on £15 mill/year and just signed a 3(?) year contract. No way Levy forking out ~£45mill to sack him plus the cost to sign a new one.

Not sure which one i want to see more.. AFTV vs Mou meltdown.. This going to be a tough one.
He will be there to the end of season, both Arsenal and Spurs have looked poor recently, Spurs moreso however. Jose will be fine provided he doesnt ship a 4-1 loss or something. Reckon Arsenal might nick it, 2-1, Spurs have been absolutely woeful recently.
Stop posting tweets from that stupid gimp.

You cannot tell they not got the players. That’s a really decent team to my eyes. Yes, it’s not as good as it was but they should still be in the top 6.
It is an ok team, but nothing more.
Winks, good squad player sure, his development has kind of stalled though. Aurier should be no where near a top 6 team. Lo Celso one for the future. Moura, Son, Kane, Sissoko, sure, top six material, no arguments there. Alderweireld getting on but still serviceable, Sanchez average. Davies is solid, if a little uninspiring going forward.
Sessegnon must be hoping Jose gets the boot.
The self righteous cult of Mourinho was the worst thing that happened to this place. Even worse than the cult of Moyes
I can't tell if this is a parody, or if someone has hacked into Jose's actual game plan

Oh yeah,that guy.
I quoted that article many times in this forum...and that is back in 2016!
Wonder what is the numbers now.
To be fair, people follow him to make fun of him. Indykaila news...what a fecking bellend.
In big trouble now. 0-1 down at home to Arsenal... and playing shambolically bad, to boot.
Yeah,he's completely broke them.
But wait,Arsenal gotta do Arsenal things.1-1.
Gift of a goal papering over the cracks. They have been very poor thus far.
I don’t think him switching his defense every game isn’t helping either. I know Dier was banned but when he wasn’t he was still switching up.
You’ve always got a chance with Arsenal, no matter how dog shit you are.
I'm convinced current Jose could be playing prime Stoke with Rory Delap and co and he'd make them look like a really good ball playing side
Spurs have regressed so much under Jose. Thank God we got rid.
Heard José said it will take 4 years until Spurs can win a trophy!
Their zero shots on target against Bournemouth was the first time in 5 years Bournemouth's opposition had failed to hit the target against them!

Arsenal had 80+ % possession in 20 mins in second half, this is just very poor from Spurs.
He is so negative, it’s ridiculous. They will probably leak a late goal in this match too, and deservedly so.
I stood by him at United and in hindsight I just shouldn’t have.
