All good points, but what if he simply couldn't offer them enough minutes for them to stay? What were their demands? First team starters?
Then he's made very poor judgement calls. Look at who was playing as a striker when Mourinho loaned Lukaku out in his first season - why is he picking crap old strikers ahead of good young strikers with huge potential? As usual, it's fear of youth with him. He'll always prefer a seasoned pro to a potential world class gem.
De Bruyne ahead of Oscar or Willian? No contest. Look at the justifications from Chelsea fans at the time - all of them are about work rate or how the latter two fit Mourinho's restrictive system. The better better was obvious.
