Manager Jose Mourinho

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

The way he talks about his line up reminds of how we looked like against West Ham.
Having our team play like that Real Madrid team wouldn't be half bad now would it? :levyeyes:

 
Yeah, it takes a while to cut them all out. Bit of a nightmare but the man has a goldmine of material.

That season they won the champions league?

At no time under redknapp did we display form as poor as what we saw at the end of Pochs time - he was sacked for non footballing reasons, pochettino was sacked for footballing reasons.
Chavs ended up 5th in the league . They completely fluked the CL win. That was even luckier than our CL run tothe final last season. The great Roberto Di matteo who won them the CL was also then sacked not long into the next season.
 
I'm very happy with Mou so far.
I love that Dele is back in his natural position, Lucas is getting starts again, and Dier is back in CM to provide a physical presence we've been sorely lacking. We actually look like a team with a plan to dominate defensively and score goals.

I hope Ndombele can form a partnership with Dier as our first choice CM.
I love Winks but prefer Ndombele's creativity. It'd be a shame if our record signing became a second-choice player.
Glad that Sissoko has been moved out of CM and to the bench. Yes he is a professional and a hard worker, but he's just not cut out to be a first choice CM for us.

Hope Eriksen rides the bench and can be sold in the winter xfer window for something. His sulk has been a cancer on the squad for some time now. Jan and Toby can stick around and leave on free xfers in the summer cause we'll need CB depth for the rest of the season.

Would like to see Lo Celso getting more minutes and am hoping to see him at either CAM or one of the wings today. Sess too- was impressed with him last time at Red Star.
 
Redknapp got us into the champions league once and a quarter final, Poch got us to the champions league 4 times and a final I don't think Jose would be managing us without Poch's exploits.
Pochs highest finish was two places above Redknapp. Once.
Twice he finished one place above him.
Once the same.

Both finished 5th once.

Poch went two rounds further in the CL.

If you think that’s vastly superior, then good for you.
Shall we compare Poch and Jose, and see who Poch is closer to regarding Redknapp?
Not sure you want to go there.

Redknapp won a trophy by the way....with a bunch of farmers

Good facts again sammy. And definitely right on about difference between Redknapp and Poch much closer than difference between Mourinho and either of them. Mourinho shits all over them in every single aspect of being a manager. Mourinho has won 2 CLs , Redknapp's history in that competition is to qualify for it once. Lawl.

But mocking Redknapp for not being as good as Jose is like mocking Pardew or Moyes.
What’s the point?
No one ever claimed Redknapp was world class and could walk into the Real job.

I’m tired of MVP and others laughing off the comparison to Redknapp and Poch, and literally their killer blow is “Poch qualified for the CL three more times”......
While forgetting he was here for two more years. Arry got 4th twice in three full seasons.
If he’s so shit, it’s pretty ironic using his accomplishments as a barometer.

Why not compare Poch with rest of the top 6 managers?
Let’s do that shall we?

we are a much more consistent team with poch than harry!
 
Jose managed 18 years 22 trophies
Pep managed 11 years 23 trophies
Klopp managed 18 years 6 trophies
Ole managed 8 years three trophies
Lampard managed 18 months
Poch managed 10 years 0 trophies
So what you have shown here is..

Olay got his 'trophies' in a league similar to our division 3 or 4.
Lampard's achivements are limited to not getting Derby promoted.
Jose, Pep and Klopp kick the shit out of anything Poch has done .

Excellent fact finding again with all this brand new information.

You asked for a comparison
Pochs trophy count is par with Lampards

Is it what it is
 
FUCK SAKE - 2-0 down to Olympiakos. Mourinho out.

:dembelelol:

In all seriousness. Our defence is Championship quality at best. I remember when we had the best defensive record in the league a few years back. That's seems like a long, long time ago. It needs to be completely rebuilt under Jose.

Reality check for the people thinking mourinho will make these lot in to title challengers & trophy winners. We need better players no matter who's in charge. Especially in defence.
