Manager Jose Mourinho

He's done reasonably well at Roma but im not sitting here wondering "what if". It was only last week that they lost to the bottom of the league side
This aint the same Mourinho that was at Inter
Come back you beautiful Portuguese terrorist. With an actual head of hair.
All is forgiven.

All the misery we currently endure at Spurs started with that Mourinho appointment, tbh.
It showed the short sightedness of our ownership, wanting to trade in our identity for short term glory without actually providing what was needed to get said glory.
We hired someone who genuinely didn't give a fuck about the club, it's fans or it's history and ever since then, supporting this club bar a few months under Conte, has been utterly miserable. And I have no doubt that's stemmed from the manager.
You find a time in your Spurs supporting lives where you felt joyous, felt happy and you go and tell me who the managers were and their personality and that'll tell you all you need to know.

Mourinho was sacked at Chelsea and man u for shit football and poor tactics, not when he joined spurs.

In hindsight Mourinho wasn't a bad appointment IMO. It's the fact that that he didn't get his CB, Skriniar, same as how Conte didn't get one this summer.
Mourinho went mental after the team kept doing stupid shit, same as Conte. Though obviously Conte's had much more backing than Mourinho too.
I thought it was a terrible appointment tbh, only made to appease the fans with the signing of a genuine big name trophy winning manager because we just sacked a manager who the fans loved.
Spurs are traditionally a club who aim to play good football, somewhat plucky underdogs with a fanbase that wants to see it's club do things the right way. Hiring Mourinho negated every single part of that. We hired a miserable prick who didn't care for anything at the club bar the paycheck we gave him. And ultimately that showed. We saw right through it.
His league record at Roma has been incredibly mediocre & nobody cares about the ECL. They will go out to the first good team they play in the EL.
There's fuck all to see here, unless being 5th or 6th in Serie A and getting past Sociedad in the EL is some sort of marker .. he's doing a sort of alright job, big woop.

The difference between Conte and Jose is that Jose, for all his faults, wanted to be here.
He was up for the challenge of making Spurs a "winner". He bought in to the we and wanted to prove himself.
Conte has acted like he is doing us a favour since he stepped in through the door.
The football under Jose was boring, but I enjoyed him as a person and character in a way that I just don't do with Conte.
He should have never been our manager from a football point of view. But I have no beef with Jose the man.
Plenty wanted Jose though...... And even more wanted Conte.
The fans lost sight of the DNA just as much as Levy did if we're being brutally honest.
"I don't care about the football; I just want a trophy" became an increasingly common call.
do you want to see some players with fire in their eyes who fight as a team?
watch jose mourinho's roma.
then compare that to our pussies players who lost with dinamo zagreb
people sided with richarlison who went crying to journalists because he does not play.
what circus is this?

Didn't Mourinho lose to Zagreb while there coach was in prison....this satire right?
the message was: different players and environment, same coach, different results and attitude
Yeah but he lost to a man who was in jail...just so we are up to date on this.
Conte was also beating other managers from the hospital. So the next manager we want should be a very ill criminal.
He was also utterly shit. There is simply no getting away from this FACT, not only the football was tragic (many of us knew with certainty it would be) but the results were also diabolical.
At least Conte won more of his matches whilst boring us shitless (54%)
You may hate his football style etc. but he's shown time and time again that he's a good human and that he's a prick only when he's managing (although I like him for that).
