Jose Mourinho Press Conference FA Cup v Brighton

Can't be bothered watching it. I don't care what a manager says , just what happens on the pitch. I'll judge him on that and see what happens for the rest of the season.

£#%&!ing state of that press conference. Looking at him on Sky. Ranting, shouting, screeching, pointing, bulging eyes, etc.

£#%&!ing lunatic is losing it.

Read this from ozil's book



You love to laud pep but 12 months ago he was the one who ended up finishing way behind 1st place, zero trophies and was having meltdowns on the regular. Actual meltdowns btw, not just defending his players like Mou is doing.

Conte won the title with 93 pts, then mou drove him so mad he wont even finish in a cl place etc.....

Premier league isnt set up to dominate due to horrendous decisions regularly by the big teams. Thats why leicester won, thats why chelsea collapsed this season and in mous season.

Remains to be seen if city end up shooting themselves in the foot. IMO they are not as good as their points total suggests and next season will be totally different.

Sorry pal but I called his head being gone while he was winning that title with Chelsea. Lasted a couple months of the next season. Deffo signs of the same creeping in atm. Bringing City and indirectly Pep into yesterday’s presser a very worrying sign.

Only thing I'll say about yesterday is that, he knows the story.

Keane and a few others said it after the match. He won't come out and say it but, he knows.
He's a lot of things but, he's not stupid tbf

He’s in full on deflect, deflect, deflect mode.

Can’t ever remember him chucking his entire squad under the bus like that though..

Huh?

From what I saw yesterday, he made the presser all about him.

Not sure where you got the throwing the entire squad under the bus from

He said only two players had performed well from day one: Lukaku and Matic.

Miss the bit about only 2 players performing to a high level all season? Matic and Lukaku? Then says he can’t tell you whose been poor. Basically implying they all have..

And what does it matter if he's not willing to change It?

I'm sure Alan Pardew knows West Brom are going to be relegated too.

Is he not almost admitting he can’t inspire them to play for him? That he can’t get the players up for important games with all this as well? The on me thing that used to be his greatest strength..

Moyes was shocked and over his head. LVG had no idea what he was doing. Jose is just being a @#%&! and playing boring football (not as bad as LVG).

None of the above picked a team - they'd pick 11 players each match but they never developed a team.

Thought Jose would have cleaned house more from all the shit in the squad but didn't he just doesn't play some of them. Really big downside is that he still plays some of them.

It means Clarkie isn't ready to accept reality, so is instead doubling down on Mourinho being a genius/prophet/healer of the sick/all knowing/ the light, and we're blessed to have him rescue poor little United.

We binned him because he lost the dressing room, and most of the boardroom, by the end of his first season. IMO mourinho worked his ticket at Chelsea because he knew where things were heading for van gaal.

Yeah, those 3 games were great. Fellaini at the centre of it too.

Turn it in Jammy. Your bullshit has no place here.

He’s basically having a go at the problem he’s faced since he got here and has been unable to change so far. An egotistical dressing room full of players who aren’t as good as they think and are mentally weak in numerous ways.

Sounds like he thinks he’s in last chance saloon. He hasn’t been able to sort it and he’s gone for the nuclear option as he knows there’s moves in the boardroom. Or he wants out himself because of the various politics within the club. Sure poch will sort it though

It's negativity all the time with Jose. That's why we're out of Europe. We should have gone to Spain looking for the win or the very least an away goal. Surely you've got to admit that?

Or his players bottled it because they couldn’t handle the expectation. We have no way of knowing.

It’s not the entire squad. It’s anyone who identifies with the critiscism. For example, I don’t think rashford will identify as being one of those players. Pogba will.

If mourinho isn’t working his ticket by kicking off a dressing room revolt (assuming this wasn’t in response to such a revolt in the first place), then he must think he’ll have some key characters onside when he says such a thing publicly.

Your bullshit needs some balance.

No, he mentioned all the players with the right mentality who were already instilled at city when pep arrived and suggested hes building heritage leaving the next manager matic and lakaku. Didn’t mention performance it’s more attitude. Hes not planning on staying long if matic will still be here when he goes.

He mentioned performance in the second half of the press conference.

“You cannot expect me to say, ‘This and that player, they have to do better’. I prefer to say that Matic and Lukaku are performing at a high level since day one until the last match. I cannot tell you the ones that are not performing.


https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football...cord-man-utds/

He's full of shit.

If he thinks Matic & Lukaku have been great since day one to now he must have been watching another team between October & about 10 days ago.
(which might explain the results)

He can piss & whine all he £#%&!ing likes and we can look back fondly on when he "got inside" Peps head (yeah, fascinating) ..but none of that explains why he's happy after games where we have 30% possession of the ball & 2 £#%&!ing shots on goal (even when we win the match ffs) or why he picked that freak Fellaini for the biggest game of the season.

tbh I'm sick of talking about him. He gets on my £#%&!ing nerves.
