Well he did win two trophies at United in 2 1/2 seasons
Klopp didn’t win any in that time
But proves my point, look where either manager is now....

By the time of KDB and Oscar Essien was long gone. His midfield and attacking third options comprised Hazard, Oscar, Schurrle, Salah, Cesc, with the less experienced Van Ginkel and KDB hovering around the first team (I'm sure I've forgotten some other promising youth, Chelsea very much just bought a batch of talented ACMs and waited to see which ones would breakthrough).Well it was Lampard who played in his position with essien so he was waaaaay more developed

Lampard was on his last legs btw and entering his swansong.
Lampard scored 41 goals in that period and played 139 games...By the time of KDB and Oscar Essien was long gone.

What players?Planning seems his kryptonite
Why get these players in if you have no plan to develop or integrate Into the fold?
What players?
They sold him for a profitWhy sign Salad with no intention to play him, he was signed to cover the loss of Mata and KDB moving to Wolfsburg on loan?
He had these players many signed by himself and they were dumped only to go on and do bit with others.
A lot of his MO points to not having a medium to long term plan...which with our set up worries me
They sold him for a profit
It’s what they do
They have done it with loads of players
I also believe the players were mainly signed by the black ball header chap they used to have as DOF
Same as here whether Jose is coach currently not manager
I think you need to read up on our trophy history dear boy.Yep
But he still won more in than horror show than we have in 30 years
That’s why clubs employ him
Mou also won the league in that time and also the trophies at UnitedAnd these players went on to do better things as Mourinho and his band of trusted lieutenants crashed and died.
Whilst KDB went on to tear the Prem up Mourinho lost two jobs.
It’s well documented about the ones that got away.
The fact Mourinho is at Spurs tells a story.
GHod knowsDidn’t abramovich sign Salad because the Basel chairman had offended him?
Also, wasn’t Lukaku loaned out because they had spent a fortune on Torres?
YepI think you need to read up on our trophy history dear boy.
GHod knows
But salad at Chelsea I don’t believe was the salad we’re seeing now
He has actually got better at pool as he got older
Same as De Bruyne
Whose to say they would have got better at Chelsea with limited games..
Because he has better already at the time who he playedAnd that’s the point, they wouldn’t because José wouldn’t play them.
It’s the hope that kills you...
He's been past it for years. He's still a good cup manager but he's never been the best at winning leagues. Now sure on his record he does have a number of league wins but they were always with the most dominant team in that country.I’ll just add that I wanted Ancelotti... and this is the second worse post COVID game I’ve seen after the Mersey derby
Maybe he is past it
They weren’t when he was at Chelsea second timeHe's been past it for years. He's still a good cup manager but he's never been the best at winning leagues. Now sure on his record he does have a number of league wins but they were always with the most dominant team in that country.
