Some good insight into what things were like when Jose was here. Just remember we had legions of fans trying to defend this crap when he was our manager. I haven't forgotten all of you.
Now Mourinho is unemployed, he's making a lot controversial statements again to try to stay relevant and keep getting punditry roles. He should be ignored by the fans. Good response by Shaw though to put him in his place.
I don’t know what Mourinho has said but the comments from Shaw are very good anyway.
Unsurprising. He still has an odd cult following on here to this day.The comment from Mourinho got a lot of support on here.
I think he called his corners dramatically bad after the Czech Republic game.IIRC, a dozen of days ago he made a comment about picking Chilwell over Shaw without question. If he added something since then Shaw is right about living rent free in Mourinho's head.
Was this in response to something Mourinho said recently? The sour old bastard
I don't remember what caused all this? Why did Mourinho not like Shaw? What was his problem with Shaw?
What's the abrasive one said this time?
I’ve heard more from Shaw than Jose tbh
I found a boy. I found a boy after an incredible injury that put his career at risk. A boy with some fears and scars from that awful night. Then to work with me in a club where I was trying to improve mentalities and make ambitions and responsibilities to grow up. It was not easy for him.
I push players to the limit and sometimes players aren't ready to follow me in that mentality. We had good periods, he's a player with lots of talent. I think that's one of the reasons why he's playing.
The most important thing is the confidence of players. I don't believe at all that for example when Gareth decided to play the last game with James and Shaw. I don't believe he told them don't attack, stay on the line of the four, be cautious. I don't believe that.
To do that, you do that with other players. To do that, then you play Ben White in defence alongside the Mings and Stones as well. I think the confidence of the players (is important). James and Shaw are attacking and fast players. Normally they go forward and create. They arrive in the box and create. They didn't against Scotland. They stayed very, very quiet. They didn't make mistakes. But offensively they were poor.
The negative thing I would say is once more they were very poor on attacking corners. The service was dramatically bad. They have so many good players to attack corners. The crosses are not passing the first man. Luke Shaw, in my opinion, very good tonight but very poor on the corner. Phillips, the same. England has great power at this level and going to knockouts, one corner can decide a game.
Jose has been taking digs in every interview.I’ve heard more from Shaw than Jose tbh
Tbh those quotes aren’t all that bad. Still, screw Mourinho.It was in response to a series of quotes from Mourinho, mainly after each England match in the tournament.
Before the Scotland match:
After the Scotland match:
After the Czech Republic match:
The Shaw comment about the focus on his set piece deliveries is based on Mourinho's most recent quote about Shaw's bad set piece deliveries.
According to the Guardian the suspicion is that it all began when Shaw turned down Mourinho in 2014 whilst he was Chelsea manager, and that’s never been forgotten.I don't remember what caused all this? Why did Mourinho not like Shaw? What was his problem with Shaw?
The only trophies Shaw has won in his career were under Jose so he should at least be grateful for that. He speaks as though Jose was only bad for his career but in fact, if he looks inside his trophy cabinet, he can thank Jose for those, not Ole.
Ah I think I remember that. Shaw broke through at Southampton and there was a lot of interest in him.According to the Guardian the suspicion is that it all began when Shaw turned down Mourinho in 2014 whilst he was Chelsea manager, and that’s never been forgotten.
feck sakeit's on!
Yeah, those quotes aren't particularly abrasive, but I can see why Shaw would respond the way he did when asked about them. I don't think he's really spoken about his relationship with Mourinho to this length until now. Previously, he talked about having a mixed relationship, but this is the first time that he's really opened up about Mourinho.Tbh those quotes aren’t all that bad. Still, screw Mourinho.
This. I don't even know what he said but this.Feck Mourinho

I read the exact same comment on twitter.......you must be a bot.
Near sure he won FA cup with van gaal
If those are supposed to be the quotes Shaw is responding to it's more like Mourinho is living in his head than the other way around, just looking at it objectively.
Not like Mourinho was singling him out at all.
Shaw is likely hearing most of this second hand off the journalists, although Mourinho did say he wouldn't think twice about picking Chilwell over Shaw. There's definitely still something nagging at him there.Fair comments relative to the past, but Mourinho's latest comments were as a pundit. It's his literal job to share his opinion, think Shaw is being a bit touchy here.
That being said, all deserved after the shite he probably put up with before.
I don't think the comments are as bad as the corners but why is the fullback taking the corners if they are not good enough?Tbh those quotes aren’t all that bad. Still, screw Mourinho.

The thing is, when you keep your feelings bottled up for so long, you're bound to explode at some point. Luke Shaw did here albeit diplomatically.Fair comments relative to the past, but Mourinho's latest comments were as a pundit.

Is that all? Seems like an over-reaction from Shaw, if this was the only thing Jose said. It is not like Jose told that Shaw is a useless feck who hasn't learnt anything in past 5 years."Speaking in his role as a radio pundit, Mourinho was left unimpressed by Shaw’s set-piece delivery in Tuesday’s 1-0 win over the Czech Republic – a result which saw England top Group D.
Mourinho labelled the service “very poor” and “dramatically bad”, but Shaw did not agree and was left questioning why he is still being targeted by his former boss."
This is what Shaw was responding to.
Yeah, true. Probably just the first opportunity to cover off a shit period of time he never really got to openly talk about.The thing is, when you keep your feelings bottled up for so long, you're bound to explode at some point. Luke Shaw did here albeit diplomatically.
If we look strictly at his response in relation to Mourinho's comments as a pundit, sure, they are an overreaction. However, when we extend it to cover Shaw's time under Mourinho, I can understand his reaction. Not everyone is able to bottle up their emotions forever.
You've not been listening to Jose on talksport then. He's been going out of his way to dig out Shaw in the last couple of weeks.I’ve heard more from Shaw than Jose tbh
But they were poor. And a pundit would be expect to say as much.
He did
