So frustrating - I hate what Jose has done to this side....no confidence and reduced ability from last season to this. Not one player has been coached to be better than before he arrived.
Look at the players Poch improved - Kane, Sonny, Dier, Toby, Dele , Danny etc
We cant just get rid of everyone so we need a coach that can improve players desperately.....Regulion , Tanganga and Bergwin being the biggest opportunities.
Very easy to blame mourinho, as for players not improved, well ndombele fitness has improved, aurier improved for about 6 months and kane has improved this season as the stats show.
Imagine starting a new employment and straight away under the microscope, thus unable to really perform for 12 months effectively - amazon prime comes to mind.
A chariman who will micro manage you, and over rule your decisions, is a hiding to know where.
Son is a hit and miss player, in that his decision making is poor 50% of the time but his finishing is good, hence jose tried to utilise that with kane dropping deep.
Compare son to grealish and you can see the contrast in football intelligence.
The rest of the other players toby was still toby, dier has not been the same since his illness, and was afforded time to learn a new role.
Who is it, that sent skipp, ryan and troy on loan? rather than faffing about on the bench, thus at the same time using the opportunity to further look at the likes or winks, moura etc.
Confidence, please, players are not doing the basic's, hence the brain farts and poor decision making, alot of big time charlies as they call it.
Another thing take a look at man utd who are currently in 2nd place and 12 points behind man city, an in a final, who have not only brought in cavani, a left back, right back, centreback and the mercurial bruno fernandes on top of some the players jose had at his disposal at his time there, that 200 plus mill outlay, andthere is only a 7 point difference between mourhino finishing 2nd, with 19 points behind city, with smalling, jones, linderof and bailly in defence and linguard as his bruno fernandes.
