Jose Mourinho

[BringBack_leGin]

Yeah I really wouldn’t want an Arsenal person to have anything other than disdain for us.

 

[JCRD]

As if we don't all love it when our players do exactly the same. It's all part of the rivalry and good fun. What's even funnier is that we can laugh at their shitty financial position whilst their best paid player is sat at home playing fortnite and mugging them off.

I agree - hasnt Harry Kane said something similar in interviews? Id be concerned if the likes of Ozil and Kane come out and say 'yeah if an offer was accepted, why not, xxx are a big club and ambitious'

About Nicolas Gonzalez, I felt that Mourinho in his interview was trying, but that it was one of the rare occasions of failing, to keep a poker face. To me, just intuitively, he confirmed the interest.

I have no problem with players holding clubs to meet contractual agreements what I have a problem with is players of low character having a sly swipe at Tottenham Hotspur FC especially when its an Arsenal player .

Meh Arsenal in recent times, especially likes of Ozil and Bellend-rin do most of their talking on social media rather than on the actual pitch.

Ozil can’t exactly be proud of himself last few seasons either as he’s been stealing a living.

It's the only reason I managed to summon some respect for Wilshere. The likes of Ozil were always doing their bantsy bants before the derbies and then generally failed to turn up.
Wilshere, the little shit that he is, at least played the games like they meant something.

That's because derbies are driven almost completely by the fans now. Ask the players which game they most want to win in a season and it will be pool, city or Yanited. They won't look at the fixture list when it comes out and think when's Arsenal?

That game wont come close for most of them.

I like that comeback but I would’ve preferred ‘I thought he’d retired already’.

Though that may have made Ozil cry and we have enough issues with flooding as it is.

Or started singing "we've got Alli..."

Or started singing "we've got Alli..."

"He only cost 5 mil"

"And plays slightly more than Ozil"

???

Not really sure which thread this best goes in, but seems pertinent to discussions about how we set up under Mourhino. We have conceded the fewest goals from open play in the PL this season.

Relevant to the title race tho not for this thread did anyone see the Shaw tackle v Burnley . I was just thinking lots of clubs that is a cert red card but then again it is Man Unt . I am sure Jose is thrilled to see no red card given to the reds .Said sarcastically.

Yep, he was a very lucky boy there. He did get a toe on the ball but he was out of control with studs up and a straight leg that made contact.

At least they pulled it back though, if not it would’ve been a red for Brady at the other end.

The disallowed goal was also pretty soft - I’ll take a draw in that game now

No goals conceded from a counter attack. Poch's last 18 months and Jose's first few months we were getting caught out ALL the time.

That takes an incredible amount of work to have been able to do that.

Looking at that, it shows we really need an imposing CB that can dominate set pieces.

Set pieces are one area that really should be workable. And although we are actually not the worst (better than Leicester, Wolves, Man Utd and the same as Liverpool) we can tighten up there and turn 1 pointers into 3. They aren't quite 'free points' but as near as you can get.

Just seen a stat that we have only conceding 3 goals in open play. They can't be true

if you don’t attack then you can’t be open to a counter attack. Jose is a Wiley ol Fox.
