Not even one year after completely losing the dressing room, having the players down tools en masse, and inflicting enough PR damage on Chelsea with that Eva incident that silly mainstream US websites like the Huffington Post are introducing people to the name Jose Mourinho.

That's when the Nonsense decided to hire him. Just so consistent with their paycheck to paycheck sort of philosophy. We get Pep so they need a huge name. And that was who was available and who they could get.

Well then, Van Gaal Era and all you entitled 'caf lurkers with your insufferable delusions of grandeur and superiority - the little club you make fun of is more or less driving the narrative. Which you then react to. Stupidly.

Who's really the "little club," then?
 
A very small part of me is a bit annoyed a meltdown is ALREADY on the horizon. But a bigger part of me is happy because fuck the Scum every bit of hurt this year is extra glorious because of this shit over the summer

Maybe we should start calling him Mouyes

If /when it all falls down on PEG they're nailed on to hire the family man, and oh the good times (for us) will begin.

Seasons stated perfectly so far.

We look the dogs bollocks and they look like dogshit.

Expect a big push and hope on the granny shagger for the Watford game.

Peg just reminds me a bit of Pelli, no game plan just hoping for a bit of individual magic.

I am surprised he is already criticising the players in public so soon. Coming after a bad year at Chelsea if they get a couple more bad results the dressing room will lose confidence in him then turn.

I agree

Steady mate. Without sources like that and other silly US websites to inspire, Off Topic would be defunct
 
Mourinho's now lost 13 out of his last 31 games.

I think all blues saw this coming, the hype around their transfer business was just bizarre.
 
I wondered before the start of the season how long it would take for the big egos to start falling out with each other and i'm pleased to see it's happening sooner than the 3 months i gave them.

Could it be that football has moved on tactically and Mourinho has stayed where he was 10 years ago.
The obsolete one.

Spot on I think.

Football seems to evolve quickly now. Rule changes and interpretations, the amount of money around that makes it possible to sculpt teams with precision signings, tactical evolution driven by the total awareness granted by mass tv coverage.

Managers can quickly find themselves out of date. From another era.

We are so fortunate to have Pep.

We are even more fortunate that they've got Mourinho.

Pogba is a decent player. Technically gifted, but very undisciplined. The problem is playing for Mourinho who at this point in his career just relies on good players to try to get him wins. Pogba needs to play for a coach and a team who is well organized and has a specific plan for him. For example he would do well with us because Pep would tell him what to do. He did well with Conte and Allegri because they had a specific plan. With Maureen he expects him just to go out and make things happen. Pretty telling that Rashford was trying to press on his own and none of his team mates did. Makes you wonder what the feck are they actually working on tactically.

Jamie Carragher


made a really good point on Monday night football. He just cannot play in a 2 man midfield. At Juventus in a 3 man midfield he could roam and do whatever he wanted but you cant do that with just A&E as your partner. He did do that in the first half against us and we ruthlessly exposed the gaps in midfield. PEG either has to rein him in or play with a 3 man midfield. 3 man midfield means he has to drop Rooney
 
So, who's to blame for this defeat? Imagine the physio is shitting himself in case they lose at Watford ;)
Shithouse club, shithouse fans and the perfect manager.

Or drop him .... Oh could you imagine it :-)
 
Jose threw his players under the bus after the derby. Made changes last night, lost, threw his new players under the bus, and is going back to the original set of players he threw under the bus to correct things at weekend.

Just wonderful
 
So, it's yet another game where the shit Balotelli makes zero impact. Listening to Talksport this morning, we got the usual
'needs time' nonsense, but from what I saw last night, he also needs lessons on how to be a footballer, he looks the part, can run a bit
but has no vision and seems to make the wrong decisions. So still no goals, assists, or anything like a competent display from a lad with the
unenviable tag of the most expensive player in history. The rest of the team produced a turgid display reminiscent of LVG at his nadir,
3 subs thrown on together, supposedly world class players making no impact whatsoever.
Happy days.
