TRon Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 He’s left them a better team than the one he inherited. I don’t particularly like the guy but he’s still a better manager than most. Left behind by the likes of Klopp, Guardiola and Pinocchio in recent years with their far more positive football. Squeaky bum time now. Rafa has to be in consideration for their managers job at end of season... No chance they would want Rafa, they'll be looking to get back to attacking football, and as much as I love Rafa, that's not his way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interpolic Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 If he has any sense, he'll take a break from the game. At least until the end of the season but should be longer. Has totally lost it over the last couple of years and regularly sounds like a total nutcase. Any charm he had has disappeared. The situation with the Chelsea physio showed him up and he's just got worse since then, any time the pressure's on. That Man Utd team hasn't been playing for him for quite a while, they're clearly as fed up with him as the general public is. Shame, when you recall how he used to sometimes carry himself with a bit of class at least, but all the goodwill towards him has gone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 He needs to take a break from the Premier league, his methods are not going to work any more at this level. Somewhere like Italy would probably be more suited, or if his ego can take it, he could take a job at one of the lesser clubs in Spain. Problem for him over there will be the same as here, the very top clubs don't believe in being over defensive methods. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NG32 Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 HIs brand of football is nowhere near where other clubs are moving to or have moved to. Hes a bit stuck in the 00s and doesn't seem to want to change, with the likes of Lukaku, Sanchez, Martial etc they should be a bit more free scoring than what they are.

Mole_Toonfan Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 At the end of the day, almost every single player under him has gone backwards. That's enough to sack him by itself even if you ignore everything else, as it's literally the no 1 priority as a manager. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wouldn’t be getting sacked if they were Season isn’t even half way done. Given the form of City and Liverpool, 3rd is a very decent result and would have been very achievable if it weren’t for a few wrong uns in their dressing room. I’m not defending him. He’s a moany cunt but he’s also a very good manager. He may well have run out of big clubs to manage now so be interesting to see what he gets offered next.

Even this week he was whinging about his players lack of physicality. I'm not one of those that hates him either, I think he makes the Premier more interesting, but his time is up at the very top. Best bet for him would be a club just below that tier, he'd be good for a team like Everton maybe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell there's no way in hell Mourinho would have played Silva and De Bruyne in a midfield 3, he would have stuck at least one of them on the wing covering the fullback. Not really a Pep thing either, he's failed to do anything that Emery, Klopp or Pochettino have done I.E. actually improve the players you have.

More than one way to win a game of football. Which is why i mentioned the other managers in the top 6 specifically. They've all improved the players they have, where as Mourinho has done the opposite. That's the long and short of it to me, if you're not improving players as a manager you're not fit to be in charge. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
