I find that hard to believe ....

Doherty for one of the CBs and push Sissoko to midfield. At least PEH and Tanguy won’t just be chasing shadows all half.I haven't got a clue what Mourinho does in that second half.
I am absolutely frightened he replaces Ndombele with Doherty.
That's the thing... we may not be the best team in the League... but worse teams than us have beaten Brighton (and Fulham, and Newcastle etc.) even the peripheral members of our squad are better than many PL teams' first XI... and yet we always look like relegation fodder whenever we come up against someone who seem to give a shit!If our team of talented individuals aren’t as capable of keeping the ball as Brighton, it’s on the coach yes!
What the fuck is he paid 15m for?!?! What the fuck is doing with these guys on the training pitch?! I can assure you it isn’t offensive sets and working out how to transition the ball from defence to attack.
Are you seriously insinuating that Brighton just straight up have better players than us and Jose’s management is the only thing keeping us just 1 down?!

It's like when Woolwich fans were mad that Levy pulled the trigger on Poch first and got Mourinho.Not even joking when I say it's infuriating Chelsea pulled the trigger on Lampard when they did. If Tuchel was still available you'd hope Levy would start to find it too tempting...
Andy Carroll on loanIf Mourinho is so insistent on playing fucking shithole football with defend deep and long ball tactics how the fuck does he not put a big man up top to at least hoof towards, it fucking beggars belief he is this fucking dumb.
He's out of ideas since he came here, but us fans had to give him time to see what he could do. Now it's cristal clear he didn't impvove anything in the team and we are playing like a Stoke team fighting against relegation every game.It was clear before this match that Mourinho is out of ideas mate. Just that some people take longer to accept it.
Me and cretinous are brotherscretinousgoat dupe account?
WinnerPiss off Jose. Really wanted him to succeed, but it's plainly obvious we only work on defensive shape in training and we are not good at that.
We do have the attacking players but they are not being used right.
Ndombele is a class midfielder but beating players in our own third is a criminal waste of talent.
Son down the centre , Sisokko at rwb how many times does it take to realise it does not work.
I want my Tottenham back, used to not always winning but at least attacking and playing with some style
Forgot about benitez. Great shoutlose today, jose will be gone by end of week, danny boy is banking on getting top four, with city and chelsea coming up, can see him pulling the plug and appointing rafa till end of season and then going for ralfie in the summer.
That’s probably why they did.Not even joking when I say it's infuriating Chelsea pulled the trigger on Lampard when they did. If Tuchel was still available you'd hope Levy would start to find it too tempting...
