Which is why he threw Vorm into the Norwich tie, ultimately costing usYou can say what you want about Mourinho, at least he values domestic cups and actually wants to win them.
Important for the players' mindset.
Yeah, Vorm's the root of all our problems this season - which has literally had to be bailed out by the fucking PLAGUE!Which is why he threw Vorm into the Norwich tie, ultimately costing us
So you say.Yeah, Vorm's the root of all our problems this season - which has literally had to be bailed out by the fucking PLAGUE!
Mourinho's squad, pre-trained, adequate depth - he will attack ALL the cups.
None of this "domestics aren't important bollocks".
History shows this.
Gazza isn't Jennings, mate.So you say.
We went out of the FA cup on the back of a goalkeeper who hadn't played in 18 months and was unemployed for a period of that time because we didn't want him.
Isn't the idea to pick your strongest team for competitions you want to win?
Plus irrespective of Mourinho himself the relationship with Levy will be telling we know he had a good one with Poch up until the end possibly still does they both only know how it ended on personal terms, Mourinho saying one thing in the press Levy another doesn’t bode well.Never realistically considered Mourinho would ever agree to join us and so did not have a view until he was appointed. I never considered he produced boring teams like George Graham did and his record at different teams is clearly good. The biggest problem with him was how he fell out with players that always led to him leaving. However I think that is what happened to Poch. I am still cautiously optimistic he can bring us success and think changing direction so soon could work out worse. He retains my support but I am far from convinced.
Well... there’s an argument to be made that as they all have been disadvantaged by this, they are operating at a similar level anyway. probably still have a better of fitness than players in 1992-93 (when football began)I mean, he's right. But not a single professional footballer in this country is ready to kick off a competitive game today. None of them are match fit.
I agree 100% about restarting the league, no way should it be played.Its a fair point though , the only blessing will be if the season does start again in the next few months Kane and the rest of those coming back from injuries wont be the only ones who aren't match fit. Still surely its a Moot point as there is no way we should continue this season, just scrap it and start getting ready for when its safe to play again.
