    So you brought in the leaving clubs in turmoil which is not something I raised then complained about the Physio being brought in asking what it has to do with anything? Your a professional victim at this point.

    She was the club doctor by the way and you were referring to how Mangers depart clubs and her being bullied out is totally relevant to that conversation as it upset many players and was the beginning for the end for Jose at Chelsea.

    You not being able to see how it matters because "the end result was the same" shows how blinkered you are. He cost someone their job ffs. It was totally unprofessional and disgraceful behavior from the self appointment special one. No other manager behaves as poorly as he does. Sticking his finger in Tito's eye, who does that?

    Your end result argument is pathetic and more doubling down and excuses. Sure when companies leave people go whats the difference between walking out the door after verbally voicing your objections like a normal person, sure we may as well bully the receptionist and poke a few eyes on the way out and question peoples intelligence too. Jesus wept, your excusing the inexcusable.

    It’s almost like you are saying Jose is a bad man... Is that your point? That’s He’s a bad person?... Cause I thought we were discussing his credentials as a manager, not a person. So now you want to change the discussion to Jose as a person, is that what you want to do, discuss his personality?

    If you want to discuss morals or ethics or equality or positive values football is not a sport to start throwing stones at individuals. But I’m out, your just changing the discussion as we go along.

    Nah mate, I discussed his credentials and the success he didn't obtain and the immediate success his successors at Madrid did which was basically thanks to Jose not leaving the place "in a shambles". You just carry on with the strawmanning though, its almost like Jose has no imperfections and is god like in your book. Is that what your trying to say? He the perfect man? everything he touches turns to gold?

    I don’t know but did read somewhere (can’t remember where) that prime can only show the games in England.

    Do you know I’ve not tried watching any sport on prime yet. Have the Irish app which is very basic and doesn’t have any option to see the sport. Must try it on the firestick

    On the mobile app if you go to TV shows and scroll down, there should be a section for your live and upcoming events, the American football should be there, Colts vs Texans which is on the 22nd. The football will be under the same section, I watched the US Open tennis on it in September I think.. was great to have such a selection

    Disgraceful all right, but she did at least get £5M out of it! and has a private sports medicine clinic on Harley Street. So I think it's pretty obvious by now who was right and who was wrong on that one.

    That too.

    He might be a lovely guy behind closed doors but it's his public actions as a manager we're talking about here.
    So now you want to change the discussion to Jose as a person, is that what you want to do, discuss his personality?

    Seems that's exactly what you are trying to do, to derail a topic which you find uncomfortable and reflects badly on Mourinho. Like it or not, his personality and the baggage it brings with it is an integral part of what a club is hiring.
    If you want to discuss morals or ethics or equality or positive values football is not a sport to start throwing stones at individuals. But I’m out, your just changing the discussion as we go along.

    How many professional football managers poke opponents in the eye? Or do you think that's somehow normal?
    Feck knows, we got enough discussion out of the moral failings of an opposing club a few years back... I suppose we shouldn't have talked about the racial abuse of one of our players, either, because "football is not a sport to start throwing stones at individuals".

    I'm partial to your abracadabra,

    I'm raptured by the joy of it all.

    Jose is a great manager.

    That does not mean he will be great in every job he gets, lots of variables at play withim a club or just life in general that will influence how well he would do.

    Even though, over his whole time, he was the wrong guy for United he can still go on to do very well at Spurs. It is bad for United that he is there imo as it is likely to make United goals harder to achieve due to the competiton.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,005 ✭✭✭BDI


    Jose was trying to link himself to every job out there. Wenger was doing the same a few months ago.

    This is the only high profile job on offer. No budget. It’s a big test for a man who likes to go out and buy what he wants.

    Serious talent at spurs but if one or two players he thinks arnt good enough can’t be replaced we may see the 3 year syndrome start a bit earlier.

    But he has been great at every job he's gotten, he's been the most successful manager post Fergie.

    Women are beating Leicester 6-1 at half time. Camped in their final third never mind their half... some brilliant attacking play. 10 is ON. Live on MUTV.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,263 ✭✭✭✭Strumms


    8-1 with 15 minutes to go and they missed 3 sitters on the trot, 4 as I type.

    11-1 to United at the final whistle...there were four absolutely piss easy sitters missed in the second half too, the last certainly I’m even wondering looking at it again if it was out of embarrassment and on purpose..

    I genuinely can’t tell what you’re getting at with that response, though I think it’s some snide attempt to somehow deride me for the fact I’m sad a ex-player I love will be playing for a different team than us?

    If Jose signed Paul Scholes I’d be happy for Paul but I wouldn’t be sad. He has not had a game where I think he deserves 200 odd grand a week in a long time. Might score the odd cracker but Johnny Evans would have him in his pocket now.

    Great for marketing though , cracker every now and then and quality interviews.

    I get what you are saying but not sure I agree that getting back Zlatan for a few months would be as silly as some believe. I presume he would be an alternative to Other older strikers we are looking at but I don’t believe the MLS argument holds up if he’s coming back as a sub or bit part player.

    Henrik Larson was 36 years old when United took him on loan for a few weeks and he’d been playing in the Swedish league for over a year. What Zlatan would give in the dressingroom on its own would be potentially beneficial.

    But that said, I don’t see Zlatan coming back for Ole and I’m not sure Ole would want such a big character in his dressingroom when he appears to be struggling to convince the big names currently there that he has what it takes.
