What did Mourinho say?
Luke Shaw responds to Jose Mourinho
- Thread starter Tom Van Persie

You can guarantee Jose won’t leave this alone.
Well clearly Shaw thinks that life is so much better under Ole, we may not be winning trophies anymore like we were under Jose, but at least he has a manager now who will put his arm around his shoulder and be best mates with him. Because that's more important than winning trophies isn't it. Just to remind you, Jose is still our most successful manager post Sir Alex.
He also won the league cup actually and reached an fa cup final only losing narrowly to a very good chelsea team (much better than villareal), I am sure you know that, but you are trying to lessen Jose's achievements to make Ole look better.
The last line 
Something about three times is my best guess. Who knows.
you know that’s quite likely. He will probably list the trophies each of them has won - and then also say that Shaw didn’t play in any of the finals.
Yes, speaking out against someone who has been targeting you for years is weak.
Does Jose's issue with Shaw all stem from him not signing for Chelsea years ago?
He is magnificently and outrageously petty if that's the case.

He said his set pieces are poor for England
Was this in response to something Mourinho said recently? The sour old bastard
FFS there’s always one
Mentally weak 
Shaw should either go full nuclear on Jose or just pretend he doesn't care. The former would be funnier but latter would piss Jose off more.
"Luke, what are your thoughts on Jose's comments?"
"I don't listen to Talksport but I appreciate these figures from football's past need to earn a living".

It looks like Mourinho is living rent free in Shaw's head too by the detailed answer he gives.
I didn’t really understand Jose’s criticism of him the other night. I thought he did well, even if the England players didn’t seem to trust him with the ball as much as he as United.
Imagine having a go at the left back for not delivering decent corners. Maybe ask why none of the midfield or wingers can deliver a better set piece than a defender?

Would you put it past him?
No surprise that the Mourinho defence squad has come pouring out of the woodwork.
Not forgetting that it was one of the early matches after Shaw came back from the leg break and a subsequent injury. Should have been an opportunity to say something good and build up Shaw's confidence but instead he tried to crush it back into the ground.
In the end if it wasn't for Shaw and Martial's (another player he had constantly shat on) performances, Mourinho would have been sacked a lot earlier.

And Pogba. Trio saved him for few months.
The answers are a bit long for my liking. I would have preferred something short and sweet like what duffer said but whatever Shaw needs to do to perform his best for us is fine by me. Mourinho has been bullying him for a while so it's pretty much fair game.
Yeah this is the game, also this was the game he criticized Lampard/Chelsea for relying on players like Mount. He is so out of touch with modern game, it's funny.
Also tbh that interview sounds like caf posters. Praise one player by shitting on other player, pure agenda driven words.
I can't think of another player who he couldn't sign that he has regularly spoken about in the manner he does with Shaw.
Well that’s a revisionist take if ever I saw one. The trophies weren’t the issue in Mourinho’s original comments, Shaw was, and not for the first time. If anything Shaw’s response was quite measured and apt while Jose does seem typically pre occupied with one player
After reading Shaw's comments, I'm glad he chose to to outlast Mourinho, instead of getting out. I'm sure Mourinho would have sold him in a heartbeat if he expressed a desire to go.
We'd be distraught if we watched Shaw play like he has this season for another club.

Wait, that's not how it works pal.
He was asked the question, he answered. Of course it was detailed, it involves him!
He was clearly laughing it off. Sounds like Jose 'the expert man manager' Mourinho can be more of a prick than some portrait. Is it that big of a surprise thought?
He would have surely sold Shaw and replaced him with Danny Rose.
Good chance we would have players like Rose, Dier, Perisic, Willian in our squad, all on big wages too.
Moucunt wanted to sign Danny Rose instead who he eventually got at Spurs only to decide he's shit and wanting a new LB. Typical
To be fair Ole wanted a new left back to replace Shaw too, when Reguilon knocked us back to go to Spurs we got Telles on loan who turned out to be completely rubbish. Thankfully it lit a fire under Shaw though.
The Jose defense squad still being a thing on here in 2021 is something I surely didn't see coming before entering this thread
At the end of the day, it's clear to see who won out in the end. One party just came off the best year of their career professionally while another was forced to leave the country for a club that they would've ridiculed when they were younger...
How the mighty have fallen, keep your head up Luke and leave that bitter old miserable feck to the dustbin of history like the game has

Remember when we were linked with a £50m move for Danny Rose to replace Shaw?
Fair play to Luke. No one will begrudge him aiming some shots back at Mourinho as he took more than his fair share of shite from him. Some great quotes in there, but honestly the best way he's made Mourinho look ridiculous is by going from strength to strength on the pitch since he was sacked.
Telles isn't a loan.
Mourinho fans are taking these comments well I see. Big tantrums being thrown on twitter with 'fans' demanding that Shaw is sold this summer for disrespecting their master.
Ole wanted a new left back to compete with Shaw. Mourinho wanted one to replace him.
Replace or compete? Shaw was our only LB.
“I think he was a brilliant manager but you know, the past is the past”
Brutal
Brutal
He just wanted one competent enough in case of injuries for Shaw.
I never thought Telles had a chance to displace Shaw if the latter remained fit.
It's a bit like Souness´ obsession with Pogba.
Just weird.
Just weird.
That's only because Shaw seems to be genuinely over it and grown as a person off the back of Mourinho digging him out whilst here. If that wasn't the case, Mourinho would be planting more seeds and potentially damaging Shaw's confidence yet again.
He needs to be exposed and chewed to pieces, which is why it's great Shaw has spoken out. Mourinho has to choose his words wisely, lest he look like a petty, bitter, washed up once-great coach trying to generate controversial soundbites to keep him in the spotlight... he's a manager and should be above exchanges with players. Shaw's put it out there that he was bullied by Mourinho; Mourinho is on very shaky ground with his words from this point onward, which is great.
He wanted LB to improve the competition for places. We didnt try to sell Shaw, there was 0 rumors about selling him.
Shaw wasn't always at this level though, I remember in 2019-20 season where he didn't make many attacking runs and when Brandon Williams made couple of runs, it looked like something very new. The way the player was handled was very different, Jose doesn't have to praise him when he didn't play well, he didn't even keep quiet when Shaw played well, he shat on him saying he lacked brain and it was Jose who played the game in Shaw's body.
Wonder if his England manager will make a comment on Mourinho quotes.
