I don't get how people are saying it's a typical Jose performance away in a big game. Jose's Chelsea and Madrid were not as terrible as this team.
A defensive performance is based around organization and structure. It's about killing off space to operate, cutting out passing lines, and forcing shots from range instead of in the box. We had NONE of that, today. No collective closing down of space, no restricting of possession to non dangerous areas, and no attempts at cutting out passing lines. We were trying to be a defensive team and being shit at it. Any keeper other than David de Gea, and we would have rightfully lost.
Jose is being lucky. Just like he was against Liverpool when Salah missed sitters. Not so lucky against City, Spurs or Chelsea, all of whom deservedly dominated, entertained and beat us.
I don't understand how someone can take a squad with players like with Sanchez, Martial and Pogba in it, and make them look consistently dull and toothless game after game. Imagine those three in a City/Barca/Bayern/Madrid team - they'd be tearing defenders apart.
I believed that Mourinho was the manager for us, but now I'm worried he's outdated and no longer the tactical genius he was. It's concerning.
