Jose Mourinho - SACKED

[Bedfordspurs]

The finance side will impact everyone to the same % variation, so any work in the summer will stack up against others in a relative way.

We might not sign as many as we wanted but neither will others for example.

Even those with rich third parties will have their income impacted to a level that their expenditure will be reeled in.

Jose is going to have to work outside the box and show he is worth his salary, that’s the long and short of it, that’s why we invested in not only him but a hugely expensive back room coaching team

Yep I agree
I genuinely believe these games show him more and more than he could have hoped for
He had the time before the restart to do what he wanted with the players and he can now see who has took it in

I’ll throw a curve ball in based on tonight; Tanguy was battling, running and passing. He played and showed more than anyone else. That’s a good message to Jose
Hugo has also stepped up as has Toby when asked in the last two. That for him is key

 

[Bedfordspurs]

I think we tried but nobody wanted him (Eriksen)

And where Eriksen wanted they didn’t want him
He had the power don’t forget

 

[Bedfordspurs]

And got sacked for being a complete sack of brick thereafter.

Remember the last manager we appointed who won the Europa League/Uefa Cup in his previous job? Almost like it doesn't mean much and is not the gotcha moment you fanboys seem to think it is

But still win trophies and also equalled Poch highest finish

Right...and? What do you think this means? Why do you keep saying it??

It means nothing regarding the job/position he currently holds

It means when people say he is past it maybe he isn’t
I hear that Ole is now a genius but I posted his like for like above and it isn’t great

That's fine, not everyone has to agree, but as i said taking numbers arbitrarily doesn't work. You've taken a 20 year period without any inflation adjustment.

Around 2008, the record British Transfer fee was £34m for Torres to Chelsea. 10 years later it was around triple that at £94m for Pogba. So taking these numbers and comparing like for like completely discounts the time value of money.

Inflation has no relevance to the point being made...

fair point, I think United showed interest now I think about it, and he said no

350m on 11 players helped, including 90m on Pogba and 70m on Lukaku

He was sacked mainly because other than Lukaku his signings were expensive flops. Bailly, Lindalof, Mikataryian, Sanchez, Dalot, Fred....

Pogba was even a flop under him and he was a world record wasn’t he?

It’s rumours
Obviously we don’t know the reality

Pogba is still a flop IMO for that fee
But yeah he spent money
Ole has also spent money
In fact all managers spend money to win things

Yet to be see with Ole but what he looks to have done well is rip up the mess left and has a clear plan ahead with youth and improving the under performing. His United looks exciting and full of youth, that’s not bias to rip into Jose but he seems to have a nice set up now which needs maybe 1 or 2 tweets not 20

350m to win the league cup and the european league cup? Seems a tad pricey

The comparative was to Spurs, one in which Poch took on a curve upwards after 25 years of regression.

Jose May have won more at United but Ignoring It was United and Jose was backed more than Poch could ever be is slightly silly TBH.

Pity we didn't sell them Eriksen and use the fee for fernades.

He has brought in a hell of a lot of players to change it again
That team today had 2 of Jose’s signings starting and a handful on the bench
5 of oles signings started or came on and they cost £200m plus
It’s all about £££

 

[Grays_1890]

It was for the board, he was sacked because all bar 1 flopped and Jose went on a public mission for more money and a new centre half.

 

[Grays_1890]

It’s all about £££

Why is Jose no longer their manager then?

But the colour coding doesn’t make comparisons between different years, it makes comparisons between different teams in any given year. So it shows that our net spending on transfer fees was more than Arsenal and similar to Man U and Liverpool before the stadium was announced.

I'd bet good money sanchez was nothing to do with Jose, that was a Woodward signing IMHO.

But Poch was sacked as he didn’t win trophies
There are loads and loads of fans who judge purely on that and wanted him gone
I’m quite happy watching good football and playing classic games myself but that’s not enough for most
And Poch was backed. The issue was his success rate wasn’t great for a club that’s not united or city so can’t just write off the failed signings.
