I like him but the football being played is more of a problem for me than actually going out. This is no way to develop a team.
Mourinho's post match comments

I think hes just trying to protect his players because the fa Cup match is on Saturday. Im sure he will be wielding the hair dryer in the dressing room.
I think he means it's happend before and the club has come back stronger.
The comments are as bad as his shite tactics
Basically he's saying that (although it sucks) being knocked out of the CL isn't the end of the world and that they need to stay calm and turn their focus to the next game.
Even if he hadn't expressed it so badly though it would still have been a rather weak point to make immediately after a rather pathetic CL loss to an inferior side. Especially when he is the prime culprit for that underperformance.
I understood what Moyes meant when he said we should aspire to be like City too but that didn't make it any less of a stupid thing to say either.
Maybe, who knows with him, if anything he probably knows it will get a lot of reaction and he likes that as well.
This is classic new Jose.
Just have to accept it(or not).

What's to like? He's caustic, negative, and a total cnut to all and sundry. "But he's our cnut!"....whatever. The man has no class. never has, never will. Mourinho has gotten away with his bitter, negative approach to the game and the world for as long as he's gotten results. As soon as the results stop, no-one can be surprised the knives come out.
I've no idea. His other match quotes are:
If that's what he's actually saying behind closed doors no wonder this team doesn't look up for it most of the time.
I don't know about the planets, but I wish our midfield could align and string some passes!
He is by no means protecting anybody but himself with comments like that. We'd have to go to Trump supporter level of idiocy to believe his is him trying to put the attention on him and not his players.
This is the correct explanation, folks.
I am done with him ... Just cant stand this crap he is having us dish up every week ..
I'm weird.
Yeah, this style only works if you win or compete for the biggest trophies. If not you have to get rid.
How is that protecting himself? He’s basically just turned the narrative into his comments and put himself in the firing line.
That’s me on the Jose out train, bizzare thing to say, arrogant cock!
Those comments are a load of shite.
Just when I thought he couldn't have possibly messed this tie up anymore than he had he comes out with this.
This doesn't even come across as him protecting the players, it's him covering his own back whilst at the same time putting Utd down. The fecking cheek of him after "masterminding" that debacle.

Expectation management.
"We aspire to be like Sevilla".

Certainly that would make a life a bit better
I've no idea. His other match quotes are:
Rubbish. He and most of the players didn't do enough at all tonight.
Edit: Most of the ones who played.
Don't worry, he'll be slagging off Rio and Scholes when he hears their comments and everything will be back to normal....
Some of the raging in here. The point he makes in the full response is quite obvious and trite even - effectively, just a more wordy "we go again"
It's hardly the end of the world. The poor tactics tonight and poor performances are the story, this isn't anything important

I think he wants all the attention to himself not on the team. After all, this is a bad result. People will out for blood of everything they can find. He wants to protect the teams maybe. One thing this team doesn't need is more media circus following them.
One side, he take all the blames without actually saying it blatanly. By giving gray's area comments like that, he will make headlines that up for everyone interpretation.
One side, he acknowledge the problems. I think this is the matter of pride for him to saying he got badly wrong tonight. It was Montella of all people.
And Jose doesn't feck around to screw more people's mind.

Or that one!
Yeah Moyes made a few daft cmoments during his short time at United.
This is classic Mourinho when he's been rocked to his core. Having been watching him for the past 15 years, he always resorts to overly defensive odd remarks when he's been thoroughly embarrassed in results.
Maybe so , we will have to give him the benefit of the doubt. But another interpretation is that he is saying that it is not him it is the club that is and always has under performed at this level
That's probably what he's trying to say. Bizarre comment, nevertheless.
Why not just say something. Man Utd had difficulties in CL before and bounced back from them. Why bring himself along with his past teams into it?
Look at the talent on display for both teams this evening.
I’ve defended Mourinho time and again but this was a fecking joke. After the money spent this rebuild has been a huge failure.
Our record signing is invisible (if he even plays), Sanchez has been useless, and we’ve been playing for 2nd in the league since November. Fuking garbage
I’ve no issue with showing the manager the door, or Pogba - they obviously can’t work together. Say what you will about Pogba’s position but he’s been atrocious for a £90M player. Big players are needed most in the big matches and he’s typically absent.

He is mocking United's history to defends himself.
He's downplaying the loss and distracting attention to the fact that he's downplaying the loss. That way, he doesn't have to point fingers or let his players worry about other pointed fingers. Taking the blame.
No way a winner like him is taking this loss so casually, he must be seething inside.

Exactly. Did he even watch the same game as us? How can he see that as a positive performance? There's defending your players but then this...
On the back of one the worst performances we have had in the CL, does he admit fault and say he got it wrong? No he points to the two times he knocked us out with his previous clubs, how in anyway does that help anything other than his own ego, it's just the measure of the man.
On par with the shit Moyes said in the past
People will remember this comment, regardless of how the rest of this season pans out.
And it is a pretty damning statement all things considered, but he didn't stop there, he decides to follow it up with a few more pearlers.
Someone needs to give him a cup of cocoa and send him to bed before he damages his reputation any further.
Sucking off his own ego must be something else.
Yes, that's how I read it. Pathetic from Jose.
Certainly that would make a life a bit better
Hahaha, man, what a feckin day... On a more serious note: shite comments, shite tactics and I really don't know what to expect from this team. I'm not on the "mourinho out" bandwagon, but the portuguese himself doesn't help people who stand by him (or are neutral) with those remarks.
I've sat at this chair quiet a long time. I've seen Jose out from here, Jose out from there. Go home lad, you're drunk.
This
It’s his ego talking you can tell that man doesn’t give a damn about this club.
He seems to be suggesting he could have gotten no more out of the players he has and if we played them again next week we would be beaten again because they are just a better team than us , this is an average Seville team not Barcelona or Real Madrid. We are supposed to be the biggest club in the world.
