Genie Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 He must be finished in club management after this job. He’ll either do Portugal then retire or some random Middle Eastern / Russia jobs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciggiesnbeer Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Mourinho really has such a miserable, dark view of football I can see why players cant stand him. He is like an emotional vampire sucking the fun out of football. Its like he firmly believes the way to win is by tricks, cheating, anger and motivation. Talent, tactics and fluid, fun football all seem to pass him by. Also if the documentary is in anyway factual his team talks generally revolve around telling the team how many points they need to catch another team. He could just send an email for that.

He should have never left the PL. Yeah I mean... he only won 4 CL's and 13 trophies in total while living in the sun and becoming filth rich. Where did it all go wrong for him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVFCDAN Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 I’m watching the spurs all or nothing and just got to the villa game where Engels let it sip under his foot in extra time, brought back bad memories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chindie Posted September 18, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted September 18, 2020 Bale is a poser move. Papering over the cracks with an eye catching nostalgia transfer. Bale is still a very good player, on form. But he's lost a little pace and picks up loads of niggling muscle and joint issues, and there's a bit of a suggestion that he's not really all that driven anymore after having won the biggest prizes in the game and earned an incredible amount of money. He's not going to magically make Spurs into a better side. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a special player (if he still has it and stays fit) and he showed before that special players are worth a lot of points. Hazard at Chelsea, Suarez at Liverpool, Kane at Spurs, Vardy at Leicester... they are worth 2 or 3 league places on their own.

Chindie Posted September 18, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted September 18, 2020 Watching the All or Nothing series you can see why Mourinho is a good coach, but you can also see why he implodes. He seems to be a decent man manager... until he either doesn't like you or until he's put in a corner, in which case he'll throw you under the bus. And you can see how it could easily fester in a squad until you get to the point where he's poisonous. It also kinda feels like he's lost a bit of spark. I don't think the Mourinho of 15 years ago is like this, almost coasting, almost phoning it in. If he hasn't changed, it brings his legacy as a great manager further into question - is it the case that he's actually just a decent man manager and coach who happened to get into a job where he had an unprecedented pot of money and one of the greatest squads ever, and then just did a merry go round of Europe's best teams where chances are he's gonna win a trophy...

He lost me when he said he couldn't be friends with someone who said bounty was a top 3 chocolate bar The dark choc one is a contender for number 1 spot Alli at least struck me as the kind of guy who most of the team could have a chat to, the level of conversation wont solve world hunger but if you're new to the team and country and he wants to talk about crunchies then he's someone you'd be mates with fairly quick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
