Re: Jose Mourinho Sack Watch
A quick dig at the club that murdered him earlier this week:
Ego stroking:Spurs don't win titles.
Asked if he would still be a great manager if he did not win the title with United - who have won the English top flight 20 times, including 13 Premier Leagues - he replied:Mourinho wrote:I am the manager of the one of the greatest clubs in the world but I'm also one of the greatest managers in the world.
Then of course it wouldn't be José if he didn't take a jab at one of his colleagues:Of course! Did you never spend time reading the philosopher Hegel? The truth is in the whole. It's always in the whole that you find the truth. Do you ask the same question to the manager that finished third in Premier League last season or the manager that finished fourth or fifth?
More ego stroking:Klopp hasn't won any international titles
I have won eight titles. I'm the only manager to win in Italy, Spain and England.
Gloats about winning major titles and not small ones, then he proceeds to gloat about his second-place finish :
Not small titles, proper titles, and my second place last season was one of my greatest achievements in football
His insecurity is at an all-time high. If he loses to Burnley, we may witness the birth of the greatest stand-up comedy in European history during his next press conference

Meh, this is classic Mourinho taking the spotlight so people don't actually criticize the players. Seen this a million times when things are bad, and we always fall for it.

Re: Jose Mourinho Sack Watch
Some of the worst questions I've ever heard being asked in a press conference. Outrageous, laughable stuff from some of those journos.
Fair play to Mourinho for answering them with a straight face.
It start off with:
"The Spurs fans said that you're no longer the special one, that you've lost some magic. Is there some truth in that?"
Sorry what?
"In your own words, could you describe the love you have for Manchester United, and tell us how proud you are to be the manager of such a great club?" WTF
"If you were not to win a premier league title with Man United, would you still be one of the greatest managers in the world, or would that be an old thing?"
Jesus Christ what is this. This is a press conference about a football game, IMO the manager should refuse to answer any question unrelated to the specific game.
This is really not ok. These idiots need to get their shit together. They're not posters on an internet forum ffs. It's disgraceful, pure shit stirring and trolling without news value whatsoever.
Honestly, Mourinho did great.

The press probably apart from wanting to make it interesting for them, purposely picks on Mou since he just asks for it and makes enemies for himself too often Keep them coming, this is getting better and better

Re: Jose Mourinho Sack Watch
The journalists have nothing to do with it. You can't pick your questions, but you can pick your answers.
Mourinho has always been a douche. I have lost counts how many times he insulted one of his colleagues for no reason. When he's winning, it's all sunshine and rainbows. But the second he starts losing, everything goes south, and he doesn't shy away from throwing his own players under the bus and crying conspiracy. And don't even get me started on his lovestory with the referees.
Just from that press conference alone, he insulted two colleagues: Klopp and Pochettino and then took a dig at Spurs.
Never have I seen such a toxic, immature and classless manager, and he deserves every unprofessional question he's getting.
Really hope he loses to Burnely, because that post-game press conference is going to be freaking comedy gold.

Re: Jose Mourinho Sack Watch
Zidane, Conte, Wenger are some big names available.
Honestly, I’d see Zidane coming knowing his good relationship with ex United players...Would be a solid option to consider imo. I’d try for Simeone too.

Re: Jose Mourinho Sack Watch
Can anyone call Mou a top manager anymore? He's fallen off completely
He won with Chelsea, but that was four or five years ago, and that's all he achieved. Was heading for relegation in his final season and in the first season finished third I think
At Man U he had a decent first season, salvaged by a Europa League win with probably the easiest EL run I've ever seen, but since then we have Man U heading for relegation like he did with Chelsea this season and the season before that he finishes second which is alright but gets knocked out by Sevilla in the RO16
In fact, I can't remember Mou being relevant in the CL since his semis exits vs Barca with Madrid.
So despite managing two top teams and spending a lot of money, what he's got to show for it is one EPL, one EL and a lot of early CL exits, while heading towards the sack in his last two jobs.

Well CL is hard to judge someone on completely tbh, but 2 leagues in 9 years while coaching RM, Chelsea and United isn't looking good for him.

Re: Jose Mourinho Sack Watch
I agree with Mou in some of his Pogba treatment but as an actual manager I've been calling him a fraud for a while and I still have that opinion.
He just hasn't evolved. He's stuck somewhere in the early 00's and looks absolutely clueless. Yeah the ones above him at Utd are a joke too but with the players he's got he barely produces football that is even watchable. I reckon a lot of fans of clubs out there with much much smaller ambitions than Utds would lose their shit if they played the way Mou gets his teams playing these days. What he does to football games is depressing and if you're playing shit football at a big club, the only thing that will keep you in a job is trophies to point to to shut up the critics. At a top club, those trophies aren't going to be the EL or some league cup either.
How you holding up firenze brah?

Re: Jose Mourinho Sack Watch
at least I actually watch the games, you turn up and complain when you're doing well and don't even watch ffs
@Tom, tired of this circus show atm tbh, draining my enthusiasm
it's not all on Mou and whoever comes in is gonna have a tough task on his hands, unless ppl like Pogba are just playing like complete numpties to spite him, which just shows his shit character.
but as I keep saying, at this point it's not a matter of right and wrong, Mou has lost the team and he isn't gonna win them back, they're just prolonging the inevitable
I'd love to see what Mou trains the team in before matches because they look clueless on the ball, nevermind Mou's negative tactics, they look like they all just turn up for a paycheck and a jog

tbh mourinho is a cancer to the club but after spending close to 500mil the lack of talent is crazy. we all know jose likes to spend money but the signings he has made at manure are just crazy bad.Firenze wrote:at least I actually watch the games, you turn up and complain when you're doing well and don't even watch ffs

Re: Jose Mourinho Sack Watch
I saw one theory that said United are simply too big a club for Mourinho to handle.
That seems strange since Mourinho has had success wherever he's been, but when you examine his time at Madrid, his second spell at Chelsea and now his time at United, you do see signs that the intense pressure brings the worst out of him.
Comparatively, his time at Porto, his first spell at Chelsea and his years at Inter seem serene. I wonder if that was because expectations at those clubs weren't as huge and he could easily play the underdog card. Mourinho could assert himself and control things because he was bigger than the players (as a cult of personality) and any success would be contextualised as a major achievement (which is exciting for players who haven't had it before) whereas at Madrid, Chelsea (part two) and United it's the norm and anything less isn't good enough (and ordinary success isn't as exciting for players who've had it before; they need something more).
I think it's interesting that he left Porto, Chelsea and Inter with very little acrimony (I know he was sacked by Chelsea, but iirc that was a falling out with the owner instead of the players). But at Madrid he had a "rat problem" with players going behind his back, his second stint at Chelsea collapsed because he took his failings out on the team doctor, and now his United run is falling apart because he's fighting with nearly every player in that squad.
What do those three have in common? They're huge clubs with huge expectations. Madrid and United are a given, but by the time he returned to Chelsea they were serial title winner and had a CL to their name. It was a completely different club to the one he took over in 2004. Him winning the title in 2015 wasn't seen as the club finally reaching its potential as it was back then. It was just another title.
Once he feels the pressure, his reaction is to blame everyone but himself, and that creates all the falling outs. He can't impart any style onto his teams because he doesn't have the players on board.
It would make a lot of sense to me if Mourinho's next club was one a tier below the so-called "elite", as I think that's where he's in his element.

Re: Jose Mourinho Sack Watch
I think Mou was pretty good with us and United tbh. First season he got us to the CL semis and we were up there with City and Pool until the last day and would have won the league if not for 2 losses at home to norwich and sunderland in the last 4 games.
Second season he wins the league by january and gets the carabao.
Then at United he wins the carabao and EL and places above Spurs Liverpool Chelsea with a considerably worse team.
I mean, of course both his 3rd seasons were atrocious and he deserved to be sacked both times, but that doesn't erase the good that he did prior to that. He's still a world class manager to my eyes and will succeed anywhere as long as it's a two year contract.

I really wonder if there will be a next club? Who will take him, given what he has done, with little results and don’t forget his salary demands, his budget demands for signings, let alone his ego!
We’ve also seen that there are plenty of good coaches out there that can do far better than Mourinho and without the bagage he brings!

United won't sack Mourinho any time soon imo. Look at how much time they gave to Moyes and Van Gaal when they both deserved to be sacked a lot earlier. I think the same will happen with Mourinho, unless he turns it around but I don't see it happening.
As for Pogba, under Ferguson he would rot in the B team and then be sold.

Re: Jose Mourinho Sack Watch
I will give Mourinho the benefit of the doubt since it's United who are a mess of a club post-Ferguson and he wasn't bad in his first 2 seasons, this is his usual 3rd season shit. He also had great success in every club before United, and he was the closest of all coaches post-Ferguson to actually do something but still didn't do anything major in the end and I don't think the next United coach will either if the club management stays the same.
But if Mourinho has a similiar showing in his next club then I think it might be time for him to move into international coaching.
