Jose spent aplenty. All the while he parked his way to titles. Comparing him to Wenger is probably not appropriate. Wenger was more philosophical about how football should be managed and played whereas Jose only cared about one thing, no matter the cost or the rubbish football his teams played. His name will be lost the moment he retires and will become another trappatoni.
I don't particularly have a problem with managers spending. I just think the kind of money Jose spent you are expected to do better on the pitch and put on a show and make it entertaining. Not park 10 behind the ball and 1 in opposition half and hoof your way to titles. Some would argue winning is all that matters, I disagree, to each their own.
Presume the objective of the excercise was to use Lampard as a roll model for his newly inherited squad of players. Or maybe it was aimed at Eriksen as he himself a former key player and midfielder was underperforming at the time. Whatever, it certainly didn't work going on Eriksen's reaction.
You love to see it.
I don't have the details on his contract at spurs, but knowing Levy, I expect the compensation would be heavily target based and he may not make as much as we think.
His teams almost always parked the bus in knockout rounds and virtually every big game against a big club. I often hear the "most goals" argument but imagine that real madrid team. It would be hard to not score boatload of goals with that squad.
He may have the safest job in the Premier League to be honest. During a pandemic when everyone is losing money at the life gate, can Spurs really afford to pay his contract off and then bring in someone else on massive money to essentially do the same job? Spurs are shite, always will be. Might as well be shite without paying up that ridiculously unwarrented contract.
Yeah but his objective is to have a go at Eriksen. Bringing up players you've had success with in the past is not the right way to motivate new players who are going through a tough patch. Not only that the tone is far too serious.
Imagine thinking Mourinho changed his mentality based on what fans think. The lenghts some people go to defend this man, so weird.
Mourinho didn’t win the treble with Porto, neither did he win more PL titles than Wenger. But apart from that I agree prime Mourinho was better than prime Wenger.
I don't know what is your point?? He went to Real Madrid, not Scuthorpe United. Its arguably the biggest club in the world with history and fans that would never stand for rubbish football. He had players at his disposal that would never play defensive garbage football. Mourinho didn't score the goals himself, that squad was the most stacked I have seen. I would also add he failed to win CL with that squad and ZZ won 3 in a row.
