jackyboy Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 Did a good job at Chelsea by spending a lot of money but I thought he did a poor job at Man U and also at Spurs. I wouldn't want him anywhere near us Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He got to a final with spurs also Thought he came accross well in the spurs doc- would never take him over Howe though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than Spurs where he was sacked before a cup final he has won a trophy at every club he's managed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 Mourinho has been a phenomenal manager through his career but he's very much becoming (or already is) yesterday's man, just like Rafa of the same era. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PauloGeordio Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 Can’t even begin to think of wanting another manager (speculation or other) on the day of our Champions league match! I back him all the way. He’s our future. Time will tell us that. He’s been through far worse at Bournemouth and came through it a stronger man, he will with us as he learns and adapts through this testing time Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

80 Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 (edited) This is the thing. People might accurately say no one has called for Howe to be sacked, but when, after two bad results in an injury crisis lasting months we have people nitpicking, inventing hypothetical scenarios about what might take place months from now, and nominating what their preferred type of replacement would be, it's clear the table is being set.

He has been luck or clever enough to pick jobs where he is supported by a brilliant back office infrastructure at Dortmund and Liverpool. Howe is a brilliant manager too but still figuring things out. He is at Klopp's Mainz or early Dortmund stage of development. You also have a brilliant background team but which is still establishing itself. When you are improving a club based on processes and innovative practice on and off the pitch, patience is required. It is not always linear. It's not that people don't think Klopp is a brilliant manager. We just think he's a repulsive cunt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 (edited) Mourinho is toxic. Not the personality we need here to sustainably develop as a club. Tactically brilliant and ruthless with players, which is 2 things I’d like a bit more of, but no thanks. Edited December 13, 2023 by Ronaldo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I loved the guy when he was at Chelsea first time round, at the time he was a breath of fresh air. He was surrounded by dinosaurs in the Premier league at the time, now he's become a bit of one himself. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newcastle Fan Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 Absolute disaster of a second half and shows his lack of experience at this level, but he is the one who took us there to begin with and he's got my full support, hopefully he learns and improves.

Pilko Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 Don't get the Trippier sub, subbing him when he was having a decent game with Saturday off to come and yet he left him on when he was gassed to fuck and making mistakes the last two weeks. Gordon going off just as he was coming to the boil felt odd too. Wonder if they were pre-planned subs rather than reactionary but they felt odd at the time and we unravelled soon after. He'll learn from this I'm sure, first European campaign. The overall feeling is that Dortmund away aside, we've played well and competed in all the games and yet finished bottom due to sides with a bit more savvy and nous and experience in Europe edging us, as well as the travesty of a pen at PSG. Same feeling as I had after the Man U final, no disgrace at all just a team full of big-game experience versus one at the start of its journey (Tripps aside). Could do with a humdrum, boring as shit 1-0 win against Fulham just to get the winning feeling back. Good to have a few more bodies and hopefully we can push on this season.

SiLvOR Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 Gutted for him. Will have learnt a lot from his first foray into Europe, though. Can imagine him and Tindall will be desperate to get back into the competition and work their nuts off to make it happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
