What was Jose thinking playing Son so deep today? Complete waste of talent. I remember Son having his best moments last season when Kane was injured.

Subconsciously they probably want rid of him already..
Seriously though, you're right, fans were celebrating that lo celso "goal". No idea how he missed
Just can't stand him since his bitter exit in 15/16 and miss treatment of our staff and some of the players. Then hawking himself around out rivals...
I really enjoy watching him getting beat, more so now he's Spurs manager
@balaks thoughts so far? His playing style is creeping in. This doesn't feel like the Spurs we knew of late.
Watched the game tonight and first half was text book Jose. A back 6, parked bus and bang it long back to opposition. Absolute dinosaur
Would expect them to be in the market for a target man this month. They've been unlucky with the timing of Kane's injury. If it had happened sooner they could have got Ibra in.
Wow didn't remember Southampton had so few points only 10 games ago. Brilliant form from them and credit that they didn't sack their manager.16 from 10.
Has to have been his worst start at a new club?

He was obviously brought in to rescue a top 4 finish and yet even before Kane's injury a top 4 finish wasn't looking likely, it's even less on the cards now

Jose and Moyes will be fighting it out to sign Fellaini!
It's because of their gameplan. They parked the bus in the first half, got dominated and went behind. Second half they started to press aggressively, generally started playing football and were the better team...
Smart management looking at performances instead of results. Also probably kept the pulse in the dressing room and saw they were behind the manager and hadn't lost confidence
He's already been with them for 13 games?!?! Time really does go damn fast
He is doing fine. The squad is broken and key players injured. I won't judge him till at least mid way through next season.
In all comps yes
Which is around the time he will force spurs to sack him!
He was at United and was deservedly sacked.
Next season is his 2nd season. They'll probably be at their best then. Implosion starts the season after.
perhaps - and we will have to wait. But I think I his cycle is getting shorter and shorter. There are only 3 certainties in life - death, taxes and a Jose implosion. We just don’t know the timing.
Agreed, he's done now
Horrible appointment by Spurs which is rightfully back firing
What?! That was Jose’s best ever season in football!
He’s making the same mistakes and displaying the same characteristics that showed him up here. He has the caveat of the squad ‘not being good enough’ (a squad that made the CL final and then got a large cash injection) until the summer, so he’s got another 9-10 months to go I reckon.
Southampton though16 from 10.
Have you not seen this movie before?
Third season syndrome has become the third month syndrome now. Jose is pulling a heist getting fired and grabbing his money while at it.
I still think Jose took this job solely for the dismissal compensation. I don't feel that way about United - I think he genuinely felt the board would 100% back him and he'd win some honours, here. At Spurs, he has a board renowned for being miserly with transfer funds. I think he took this job solely with the intention of being fired ASAP.
Spurs squad is a mess and he won't get the £££ to fix it.
Didn't understand the appointment - Spurs need a complete rebuild and Jose isn't the man for that.

After playing in a real system anyone would find it hard to go back to crude long ball tactics. So much for "Jose would win the CL if he had Poch's team".
Water is wet.
The vultures only come when Jose isn't doing well.. meanwhile at MUFC..
He isnt doing well. United beat Norwich 4-0
Jose is shit, Ole is shit. Makes no difference, we need to move on from these clowns. One is past it and the other was never good

That's a small sample and means nothing. One more game, and the numbers can be very different. In reality. both managers have been poor and had they been in caretaker role, they would have been gone.
It means a lot more than a random poster talking about real games meaning nothing
It's 2 draws for Jose.
What exactly does it mean?
Mourinho: 20 points in 12 games
Ole: 18 points in 12 games
Is this supposed to be seen as a positive for Mourinho?
When looking at Mourinhos record, considering he took over mid season, it's better judging it on the previous 12 games before he took over to see if there is an uplift.
Poch got 14 points from the 12 games leading up to his sacking, so there is an uplift albeit slight. But in general 12 games is a bit early to judge any new manager regardless of if there are doing good or bad, unless there is a significant difference, like if he had lost all 12 games since taking over!

An issue is that a manager being sacked is often a result of a particularly bad run of form - not necessarily the current level of the team. I believe that's a key factor behind the "new manager boost". As you said, it's still too early for any definite judgement.
It's a fair point, in terms of Poch being sacked because results weren't good enough. But a new manager boost is just that really, a boost, and it's usually down to disgruntled players suddenly working harder again than any significant tactical changes. A manager needs at least one summer to really show the direction they are taking a club, to implement a playing style close to what they want ect. We'll only see next season exactly what Mourinho is capable of doing with that spurs squad, it'll still be early days but you'd expect to see a certain style they are working towards.
