I reckon Jose is going to be on the market.

[sweep]

Lol at people suggesting that he's on some kind of 'mind game'. He's bitter because he failed to get a 0-0 at home and he's had a hissy fit, nothing more nothing less.

 

[mancboy123]

There u go though m8 uve made ur point its about opinions i dont think it was offside u do. Mourinho has his opinion but like with fergiscum its all woe is me when they lose and i didnt see it when they dont

 

[Challenger1978]

Unless something remarkable occurs in the return leg at Barca then Mourinho will get fired for what he served up tonight and how him and his team 'performed'.

(And from what I saw as well we stick with Bobby.)

You THINK Jose is going to be on the market.

 

[allan harper]

If Jose is gonna be on the Market, I hope we've got him top of our shopping list !

No.
Everything about last night tells me there is only one club for him.......the Rags!
His attitude is a disgrace.
If he loses he is a big cry baby who calls conspiracy.
He is arrogant and dismissive of anybody who disagrees with him.
Reminds me of Bacon.

I want us to win everything as much as the next blue. But not with our manager behaving like that.

 

[HellasLEAF]

I don't like Madrid much but if you ask me the match was decided by the ref on an incorrect red card decision. Once Mardid went to 10 men Barca were able to find the gaps.

This was not a red card offense and Barca really made a meal of it. A shame a match of this magnitude had to be decided in this way. Madrid were superior to Barce in the Cup FInal just recently.

Mou did little wrong here, he reacted to a controversial red card decision that ultimately cost him the game. Madrid would be FOOLISH to sack him. He isn't going anywhere.

 

[BlueRockape]

His EGO has got the better of him if there is one person in football that has lost the plot its this guy his reaction last night was a disgrace.
Please keep him away from my club we have had enough idiots in the past

 

[bluetoo]

I really hope he goes to the rags...he's probably the only manager in the world that could be more reviled than whiskey nose. I'd love to watch Bob rip him a new one during his tenure at the swamp.

Only my opinion , butt if we had him this season I think we would still be contesting the league, break the bank pay him what he wants , he is the best,We wouldnt have empy seats for games if he was manager, love or hate him he enttertains, he is the Bellers of managers

Agreed mate
judging Jose on last nights performance, is it ok for me to judge Mancini since Christmas ?
9 consecutive away games without a win, We had to beat one decent team to get to a cup final and we struggled to get that far.

He's made for the Rags, the arrogant dummy spitting wanker.

He made the game as niggly as it was with his tactics and the shite he's been spouting in the press. Tranny wasnt happy with the lack of service as early as the 20th minute and the Madrid fans and board will be less than impressed.

He played 2 defensive midfielders and a centre half in midfield, when he had Kaka and Higuain who were both fantastic against Valencia at the weekend along with Benzema and Ade at his disposal. Not to mention Puyol was at left back, where he hasnt played for around 10 years, coming off a lengthy lay off and Mascherano at centre half. They were without Iniesta and had the seeds of doubt sowed in their minds after the Cope Del Rey final. Barca were there for the taking last night and Mourinho bottled it proving he only as one way. Special my arse, there was only one special one on show last night and he spent 70 odd minutes getting kicked all over the field and getting on with it before the extra room allowed him to show how special he is.

As the home team and especially when your Real Madrid you would expect to attack and even more so when your opponents defence isnt up to scratch. They should have gotten at both full backs (if you can call Alves a fullback). And continued to put pressure on Valdes when it went back.

If you ask me Mourinho got everything he deserved. His football was as turgid as usual only he didnt get lucky like he normally does and will sprinkle over it with some "shock-horror" soundbites to the media which will get lapped up and the tactics and "football" quickly forgotton about.

 

[Jnr Kisby]

They can keep him. Last night was a wakeup call to those who want Jose. His football is more negative than anything Mancini plays. I think Real left their half about twice in the first half, absolutely gutless.

And it was still 0-0 at half time, Real came out strong in the second half and the sending off changed the game. I'd of thought that a game with 4 half's most managers would of sent the team out to be cautious at first especially when you're up against the best attacking team in Europe.

Great post.

And for me Pepe can have no complaints. I don't think it was a red myself but going in with your foot that high and studs showing mean you don't really have a defence. Adebayor was lucky not to see red too!

I still think the red was harsh, but the intent from Pepe was there and you'll get clumsy challenges when playing a centre half in midfield, but yeah the intent was there.

Mourinhos comments after the game about Barca getting everything because of their deal with Unicef are laughable, what a spoilt prick.

 

[db79ctid]

Looks like a question to me, maybe asking why you said "at least he is not Italian", is that some anti Italian comment or just Mancini ?

How many Italian managers have had success in the Premiership?

The one that done the double last year and hopefully one about to win the fa cup this year. How many English managers have been successful in the premiership?

Exactly. You don't go gung ho at a better team than you. He out thought them last week and has a brilliant track record of beating better players with tactics.

I was well pleased with last nights result and even more pleased he is behaving in a way the rm board won't like.

Me to Dave, me to. To say he got his tactics wrong and that he should of sent out a more attacking team when there is 180 minutes of football to be played is laughable. He got it spot in in that first half and for the likes of me and you, the second half went horribly right. That press conference was the icing on the cake !

 

[fbloke]

Real playing for a draw at any time is iffy as far as Real fans are concerned.

To do so at home against not only their bitterest rivals but weakened rivals too is tantamount to a letter of resignation for a lot of Real fans.

 

[Soulboy]

Zola - Kept West Ham up under mass board strife
Mancini - FA Cup Final, probable CL finish
Carlo - Prem winner, FA Cup winner
Vialli - FA Cup winner, Chelsea's second most successful manager ever.
Ranieri - Second place in PL, highest ever CFCfinish

Italians man for man, have won more trophies post 1992 than any other nationality in England.

Basically, you didn't really think that one through

Yeah but how many men called Roberto have ever won a trophy managing a team with a midfielder called Gareth and a forward called Mario?

Answer: Fucking none, get rid.

That actually made me laugh out loud.

Well done.
