Exactly. Felt more like a documentary with a heart. There were more points of view - the supporters, the community. We got to know what the club means to the city, viewers got to know a lot of the staff, little things like that. Of course Sunderland's monumental failure was great for the drama but it wasn't just that.
The thing is though I don’t think he was being straight with him. His reasoning was iffy and Rose called him out on it. Just say his not in your plans and keep it moving.
Yeah not a single clip of his off the field. Also on the pitch, it was probably 2 clips, one where he scored the goal and other when he was subbed out.
Don't forget it is a big PR exercise. Levy I'm sure is a ruthless businessman.
Rose called him out? How? By morning and saying its not fair that he doesn't get to play, or that Jose hurt his feelings?
True. I had forgotten about that.
Yep im sure the neighborhood cant be just thrilled about having a gleaming behemoth of a stadium in the middle while the residents have probably seen little return on that investment in their own lives. Im wondering for instance how many Spurs employees are actually residents of Tottenham.
By pointing out Jose's reasoning is not consistent, saying how other players who are shit in training and games still get games.
There has been 2, and both he was eating
.But there's levels of shitness, squad depth etc. A CB might be shit but they have little depth there. Rose is shit and a star from the youth academy is stepping up so he is out.
That should have increased Rose chances as Davies was injured and young kid is right footed CB.

Unless I'm doing it it seems you misread that
Yeah he was being anything but straight with him in that conversation. Seems like he frequently deals with players he doesn't rate or like with that type of passive aggressive shunning whilst refusing to specifically address any of the issues he has with them. Even in a PR puff piece he still comes across as a bullying twat.
Yeah you're probably right. The wording was quite ambiguous.
Huh? It clearly says united are unwilling to let cameras in, even for a series about themselves as Ole considers the dressing room as confidential
Didnt think Mou came across as a twat as much as just your average boss who doesnt like to approach personnel issues head on. Almost any authority figure has a hard time with getting questioned about their decision making - especially when its as direct as the way Rose did it. What it does show is that he indeed lacks man management skills because he s clearly a lot more comfortable in group settings. Tbf to him though he did have no issue calling Rose out for his poor Pool performance but then beat around the bush on everything else. You d expect better from one of the world's greatest managers.
Agree with everything.Some of it is definitely interesting. A lot of it is just mundane filler. Laughed when they said Spurs' youth development centre was regarded as one of the best in the world, and also how they tried to make signing Bergwijn look like the transfer coup of the decade, pretending there was serious competition from other top clubs.
The interesting bits are how Mourinho behaves behind the scenes. As expected really, comes across as a good guy who wants his players to like him. But at the same time you can see exactly how he manages to fall out with so many who don't in his eyes pull their weight. I bet he behaved with Pogba exactly the same way as he behaves with Dele. Dele just responds better to it.
Danny Rose came across as a right twat as expected. "Everyone is shit." "The whole dressing room knows how unfair it is I'm not playing." "Hey Levy what's going on with Milan have they bid for me yet?"
Also Kane is painfully stupid, his team talks are horrendous.
Oh, and fair play to Son. Coming in with a fractured arm and pretending likes it's all fine when it must have been agony. He didn't want a scan because he knew his arm was absolutely fecked. Warrior.
Aurier, the guy with the homophobic tweets and views? Lloris the drunk driver? Come on now.
I take the opposite view, if he has the right personal around him, with the similar mindset, its easy to see why he was able to motivate those individuals so well.
Wasnt aware of the Aurier tweets.
Alli really couldn't even try to hide his disinterest there
Probably more chance of getting a daughter
.Chances are still good then! I wanted him when he was at Leverkusen. We were still fecking around with Mata and Lingard as wide forwards and he would've been perfect for us. Being of Korean descent I'm biased of course, but I knew he'd adapt well to the Premier league and glad he's doing well at spurs. Best parts of the documentary are with him. I get all giddy like a school girl when he scores.Probably more chance of getting a daughter
I always find it weird how Jose likes to call his players "kids". For academy players and players he is personally very close to, I guess that's fine, but calling full professionals "kids" sounds demeaning and insulting.
It's Leicester that we beat for his signature.
Probably my favourite player too mate.
