He was right in spending money increases the chance of success. So does good coaching staff and the right recruitment. It’s odd to me most fans want their club to spend mega bucks but the same fans reject the idea of a super league. Man City will outspend most clubs, the failure off the FFP process has ensured this. So far it’s the smaller clubs paying the price rather than the real offenders. Football simply isn’t a sport anymore. Sadly Liverpool seem to be the only club to find a balance, which again comes from intelligence at the top of a club.

Very good coach. Bit of a nut job.
In short, a typical Italian manager.
In short, a typical Italian manager.
We all love a good narrative.
As you say has his pros and cons, there aren’t many managers these days that actually get involved in the actual training. But I think we can all agree, if things aren’t going well it will never be his fault. He has become the Italian Jose. Everyone goes under the train when things go badly.
But then again he might have got a transfer window to get his players in
Actually that's pretty funny reading that back because that doesn't happen at this club
I agree he was burnt out emotionally and clearly had the hump with Daniel and the hierarchy ( as he seems to everywhere he goes) .
But if he had walked away earlier
( which no modern Manager does , ever ) ; he’d have left us with Cristian Stellini and Ryan Mason to lead us to the Promised Land .
Trust me the timing of his departure wasn’t the real reason we didn’t do better in those competitions. IMO
Funky parade by the marina.

Naples knows how to celebrate too.
"...and you know the rivalry between the two clubs"
Someone who actually respected our traditions, rivalry and fan passion.
When the final whistle blew in Bilbao I drew a line under the Mourinho-Conte era, and I'm just not going to pay it any mind or let it bother me anymore.
A one season wonder coach
But you were happy to take the £30m we gave you, you bellend, as if you didn't know what kind of club you're managing.
Yeah, fuck you Cunte. You can direct your piss to Levy like Mourinho, but stop your belittling of our club as a whole. At least Mourinho has more respect and knows where to draw the line. Why couldn't you continue our job if you're so used to winning and make us a winning team? Fucking shit of coward. Fucking unprofessional for that rant in the presser. There's a time and place for everything. He always thinks he's above us.
I hated him when he was with chelscum but I was so all over him to come and he did. But he left with me hating him even more. Shitty cunt.
This is a guy that was Juve captain and went to manage their biggest rivals.
I don’t think he cares.
I didn’t see much respect for us in that quote either tbh.
As snarky and snide as Jose could be, I do believe that he genuinely wanted things to work here.
His United spell was when the Jose is washed narrative really started. He wanted to have success here to shut it up immediately.
It didn't work out but Jose left with plenty of moments that I appreciate.
Conte however can do one.
Jose is a much more pleasant human being than Conte, but his actual results were definitely worse.
Ehhhhh he’s definitely more charming and charismatic in general but actually arguably more vicious and egotistical. They’re both not great people in different ways.
