Mourinho did us a big favour

[bluevengence]

Love to see side show bob get a ban soon for one of his snide elbows....the gobby **** would explode

Mind games what a load of bollocks. Anyone who lets his shit get to them needs to get out of the game. He knows if we had 3 of our best players (in the prem as well) back. We would have played them off the park. He also knows that when our so called big away games come. We should have our full 1st team back. We have had plenty of injuries this season. But we are still up there fighting. The more gobshite goes on. The more he must believe refs will be scared to give anything against his team. A few injuries to his side & lets see how they manage. He gets on my tits, not funny anymore a boring prick. Sky sports news has nothing else to fill their air time. I can't have it on with him every 30 secs.

Some of you seem to be massively overestimating the importance and interestingness of "the things Jose Mourinho says". May I suggest you try to get a career in football journalism? It would suit you very well.

He's fuming that Yaya will not be banned apparently.. Good I hate the **** with a passion, he has slid into whiskey noses shoes seamlessly

A little maths lesson(without a calculator) for Maureen.

Mata cost 27 and was sold for 37. 10+
Debruyne cost 7 and was sold for 18. 11+

10 and 11 makes 22.

And to top it off Torres cost 50m and Is rubbish.

Strongly disagree. Two seperate issues entirely. Mourinho is absolutely breezing the mind games without even really trying. Pellegrini is a classy operator, to his credit, but he's also mentally weak. This is really first gear Jose fayre, and Pellegrini's struggling to hold his own. Yaya wasn't banned simply because there have been other precedents set this season. Plus, contrary to popular belief, we have friends in high places, within the FA, the press, and most importantly the Referees Association, as big decisions in most key games this season have proven. Nobody's out to get us.

Sadly, this.

Jose single handedly won the head to head at our place. Fernandino's injury played a part sure, but that's not why we lost. He had psyched us out completely. The knock on effects were clearly visible at Norwich where we played with an obvious lack of swagger and confidence compared to our norm. It was the most nervy, laboured performance I have seen all season.

Maureen is only in first gear. He's not remotely bothered Yaya didn't get a ban, although it would likely have amused him if he did. It was just one of the countless opportunities he has to wind us up, and put pressure on the officials. One of our players will only have to cough loudly in the FA Cup game and they will see red.

To be honest I didn't use to mind Maureen and perhaps admired him more than anything. But the more I watch him, he really is a slimeball of the highest order.

Right , I´m going to come right back at you but in a reasoned rational manner and not in the nasty, belittling and bullying way of too many on here. Civilised debate

Firstly mind games. It´s all just a part of the Ego´s M.O. A flaw in his character that feels the need to bully and wind people up. Pellers imo has dealt with it and given just enough back to keep Maureen on the boil. He´s bubbling under and is one bad decision or piece of bad luck from a major hissy fit.
As for the officials well it´s hardly front page news. He was at the 4th official after 10 seconds - YES 10 SECONDS - last Monday week. Perhaps that 4th official was on Yaya´s panel - think about that!
The "tactical genius" arguement - Mou did nothing different to other teams coming to the Etihad. He copied Palace, Hull, Watford et al but with better and more experienced players. He also had the enormous fortune of having to face us without 3 of our most influencial players. Imagine them rocking up to our place without Hazard, Terry and Matic for eg?
The performance at Norwich I think was a mixture of flatness after the defeat and fatigue with the squad almost down to the bare bones and nothing whatsoever to do with Moaninho´worming his way into our collective psyche
We have dropped the baton but we have to pick it up and motor into the final bend for a full frontal assault all the way to the line
I do however agree unequivocally with you over one point mate

Maureen is a slimeball - of the first fookin order!!!!

Well I don't know mate. But far too many players played badly in the Chelsea game. Of course injuries played their part but we walked over Spurs without Nasri and Aguero for most of the game and that was away. The difference in how we played compared to the Chelsea game was staggering. Of course part of it is because we missed Fern, but actually MDM did OK. It says a lot that he was by a long way not our worst player that day. And another part of it is that Chelsea are a better side than Spurs. But contrary to what you might read, Chelsea were not brilliant that day. Hazard is brilliant, and they defended well, as they have been doing. But we fell apart. I think Maureen's mind games played a part in this, by heaping the pressure on us to the point that it got to us. Your view may differ.

I also think he got to Pellegrini. Pellegrini is normally so cool, so unruffled and yet we have this refusing to shake hands stuff and Pellegrini saying Mourinho is a liar to the media. That's quite uncool and most unlike him. But it's all water off a ducks back to Mourinho. Yes he may get agitated, apoplectic even, but it's all in his comfort zone. It's a bit like John McEnroe going off on one and yet his performances were lifted by it. A salutary lesson is that ice man Borg was the only player to get the better of him at the time. But he did put a lot of players off, as Maureen does and will.

Totally agree Mouriniho is pretty much pissing on MP

Someone at the club needs a little balls and at very least have a go back

 

[zeddie]

This man is a f*cking arrogant cock! He pays too much interest in other teams affairs when he should focus on his own stinkin team.. Lately he has a particular vendetta against us. Ill be at the match on the 15th.. I know we should focus on barca and the league, but boy would it feel good to kick these c*nts out the cup

Only partially, and a very small bit too, correct.

The best words I've heard spoken about the Chelsea game was Noël Gallagher last night. He said, "we had a weakened side out Chelsea had an absolute full strength side. I would like to know what the outcome would have been had we been at full strength and Chelsea their three best players missing".

Think about it!
