Who is getting thrown under the bus this time ?
Jose Mourinho | Spurs manager
- Thread starter roonster09
- Start date
Spur will still back him for this season. I thought he had been doing a decent job in term of results so far.
I would wait until Jan to see if he is really running the team to the ground.

Never thought I’d see you defending Mourinho
I’m only ever fair me.
He's a footballing dinosaur, he's style of football can never hold up for the entire season.
Inevitably losing a couple of games. The style was/is unsustainable. Lose the first goal & there's little way back.
Seems all the closet Mourinho fans crawled back into the closet (Jose's arsecrack).
1 win in their last 5 in the league.
Posts on Spurs' forum feeling familiar
I have read these before, I wonder where.
Meltdown has just begun. Another defeat and he will start pointing fingers and causing a schism in the dressing room.
Prepare the popcorn.

It's what I hated about the Mourinho era most of all, win or lose you should come away from the match thrilled and excited at least, with Mourinho win or lose you come away with this empty feeling of being non plussed because his attitude and his style of play just suck out any enjoyment from the game of football.
Mourinho is great to have around when the team is winning, significantly less so when they're losing.
The blame game will start unless Spurs turn this bad form around.

So pretty much he's having a 17/18 United except with a shorter stint at the top of the table before it all turns to shit around christmas?
I said it weeks ago. They stat padded their goal scoring in a couple of games just like us when we had back to back 4-0 late wins, but the majority of the time xG were close to 1 than 2 per game and it was a matter of time before it caught up with them.
That’s quite a change from the previously bullish sentiment around Tottenham on here.
I think Mourinho murdered Spurs’ momentum with an unnecessarily negative approach at Palace.
Personally don’t see players like Kane and Son being happy chasing the ball for 85 minutes at a time.
He just does my head it. His post match interview was Grade A Mourinho. I didn't tell them not to play well, so it's not my fault. I am not going to blame anyone, but Aurier made a silly mistake so it is his fault. On and on and on.
Of course the other side of it was Rodgers and his tactical masterclass bullshxt.

I thought exactly that myself earlier
Spurs biggest problem is finding a plan B. Right now it seems to be get 11 behind the ball and hope Kane can find a killer pass for Son.
Jose is stubborn and keep doing the same till he gets sacked eventually.
Well that was quick.
No more hiding for Tottenham, they were deemed as a title challenger by the media and will now reap the rewards.

If the stories on Twitter are true about his leaked training regimen surely he’s in trouble.
Spending all week practicing defensive positioning whilst telling Son and Kane to play keepy uppies and have shots from 25 yards is no way to coach attacking plays. Surely this isn’t how Tottenham operate?

Would explain our attacking under him and goes with everything we've been told in the past and that he just expects the attacking players to product individual moments
You got a link?
After smashing us at OT who thought they would be looking up at us.
Pisses me off that people some how use 2017/18 as some measure of success for him. We were still in the title up until christmas when he decided to implode
And so it begins...
But...but... Second place!
Ironic that he too has become a dinosaur of the game after all the shit he gave Wenger. Fully expecting him to implode much sooner than usual.
I’m sure it was less than two games ago that I read several posts about how much better manager he was than Solskjær, and that he still is one of the top managers in the world.
there was an article on the BBC yesterday about how he had got his mojo back. Didn’t read it, just saw the headline.
thing with Jose, you know it won’t take too much to break him these days. He will implode, it’s just a question of when - everyone knows this except some Spurs fans.
One win in five definitely doesn't read well right now.
Wolves away next up. Even without Jimenez sort of team who could easily do a number on them with the way they play. Beaten Spurs in each of last two seasons although both were away.
Will probably see Doherty start and perhaps Ben Davies aswell. Full lockdown at the back and grind out a 0-1.
Better CV sure, dunno what to make of OGS as a manager but Mourinho is 100% done. He still holds on to his outdated views and they are biting him in the ass.
That dumbass 4231 he loves so much. Did the same shit at Madrid, a defensive block of Alonso and Khedira. Benching Modric(!), his teams suffer for it because they can’t string 4 passes together in build up. So what happens is they play it wide and long resulting in loss of possesion. Even a tiny bit of pressure and his teams turn into Stoke not knowing what a ball is.
The way he sets up his team is weird, back when he was at United he had the same problem iirc. The second balls are usually lost to the opposition which invites more pressure. And it is that pressure his teams can’t handle. Football has changed and become much more dynamic than even 10 years ago when he won the CL with Inter. Mourinho hasn’t evolved his game and tries the same old crap. Even the simple stuff like trying to hold on to a 1-0 lead. That shit rarely works for him (last week against CP) and yet he keeps doing it. Hell he did it with Madrid as well, we’d get dominated by smaller teams and it was only due to the likes of Ronaldo and co we’d edge out those games but it wasn’t pretty nor worthy of a big club.
I wonder if spurs fans still have the happy giddy feeling about him.
It was one of the best days of my football supporting life when we sacked him. It’s a joy to watch him be someone else’s problem. Really can’t stand his football philosophy or his arrogance.
I hope their bad run doesn’t last too long as I would love for him to stay there at least a couple of years.

I'm pleased to see this dinosaur is starting to be found out.
Spurs aren't that great a side but I think Jose's holding them back and costing them points. He treated a bang average Chelsea team like they were Carlo's title winning side and then they didn't go for it enough against a Liverpool team who were there for the taking that night.
His extreme tactics are insulting to 8 out of 10 of his outfield players and basically telling them they are not good enough fior him to trust them to do anything more than work their arse off and lump the ball forward to Kane or Son whenever they can.
This is Spurs, not 1980's Wimbledon.

It was hilarious seeing his acolytes return from exile beating their chest out how Jose is back. Jose didn't fail at United they said. Ed Woodward failed Jose they said.
They conveniently leave out his horror title defense at Chelsea and his disastrous last season at Real. Not to mention, his utter cowardice during big games.
He is a dinosaur of a manager. He will never win a league title at a top 5 league ever again.

They could have won/drawn against Liverpool if Bergwin had taken his chances, and the loss to Leicester was like one of those days everything goes wrong for you (Aurier brain fart, Lo Celso injury after taking Ndombele off, own goal ..... )
Their form seems to have dropped in recent games but the y are doing quite well so far imo and are still in the running for the PL.
Think its too early to judge this season.

I disagree, it was fecking tiring.
The problem with Jose is if he doesn't win the game the style is hard to watch. I should know. I had been watching those tumescent football games when he was at United.
If he can get us a title then yes I won't mind it. But if it is about finishing top 4 I rather watch Ole's football.
