I don’t think there are many supporters who are solely blaming Mourinho. It’s not just Mourinho, it’s the players, it’s the board, they’re all partly to blame. I think 95% + understand that’s the case. We all wanted him to do well, we all want him to do well, we all want the football club to do well.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: if he put some technical ability in the team, we offered a bit more going forward and we still lost the game, I’d be disappointed but I’d hold my hands up and say fair play, he’s trying something different. If he put Mata, Fred, Pereira, Martial etc in on Wednesday and we lost, I’d go with it. When I see the likes of Lingard, Young, Felaini, Lukaku etc in the starting team, questions have to be asked. I’m not saying those lads are bad players, Felaini off the bench is always an option for us but they’re not consistant enough at the minute and don’t deserve to play, in my opinion.
We’ve got issues defensively, that’s not a debate. But we aren’t winning games playing as we are at the minute. If we were winning games, I’d say fair enough but we’re losing so many points against teams that really aren’t all that great. If you don’t throw any punches, you can’t win a fight.
As I say, it’s not just Mourinho but team selection is everything and you’ve got to try and make the best of the players you’ve got.
