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...
BShearer Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 He will learn from these CL games. but he needs backing next window, Saudi loans need to arrive, 3-4 of them. big names. 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...

In what way? Trippier was injured, Gordon was breathing out of his arse and Longstaff for Miley made sense for some extra legs in there. Can’t see what was wrong with them.

Pilko Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 If Trippier was indeed injured then that's fair enough, I'll retract my comment about it being odd. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assumed he was, as he went down two minutes beforehand, and then took a corner which he limped too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought miley had more life in him than Longstaff did. Didn’t realise Trippier was injured but we needed his experience and nous in the pitch.

Ronaldo Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 We did not approach that second half fantastically, in fact we got it completely wrong. It’s OK to be behind 100% behind Eddie and also admit his in-game management can be naive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mighty__mag Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 Felt like Eddie was alluding to the fact he couldn't utilise the team in this competition that he imagined, judging from what he said, you'd obviously count Tonali, and Barnes here, then the added injuries we accumulated along the way. These extra competitions completely emphasise why you need lots of depth through the squad, all the major sides that make it far in this competition have this. It's tough on Eddie, he shouldn't really be judged on this outing, it was technically an experimental phase, he will be judged on it though, but to be handed the most challenging group, be robbed of a result, and manage a totally patched up side, competing in all competitions, he couldn't have done more.

I’ve been watching a lot of Roma for the past two seasons and they are honestly one of the most boring sides I’ve ever seen despite having some class players. Would absolutely hate it if Mourinho ever came here as a manager, he’s done at the top level. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't appoint Dan Ashworth if you're not going to have a playing style and philosophy that weaves between managers, so thankfully it's likely bullshit.

Myleftboot Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 Eddie wants to be the best and he wants the team to be the best so I’m sure he’ll look at that second half,analyse it and come back better and stronger. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
duo Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 At the end of the day the post, a world class save and an incompetent ref cost us qualification - not Eddie. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
