Perfect metaphor. Absolutely perfect.
nearly 100 million quid for being rubbish at your job, total madness and totally unsustainable
Proven but never guaranteed remember that the footy has been horrible and it’s the perfect time to fire a coach that was not gonna change anything in the cup final anyway we would have lost glad to see the back of him
Part of me thinks the special once got the bullet as had he won cup sunday it would have given him a bigger bargaining chip to stay. Also severance package would have been higher. Good riddance. Hearing fans saying they were losing interest and didnt want to go was a joke and levy cottoned. Levy listens to the fans.
I thought it was all about winning trophies and Jose was a good idea, but honesty I would take the CL final run with poch , even though we lost the final over the Carabaro cup final even if we win, football although mainly about glory is also about enjoyment as well and anyone who can say they have enjoyed the last year of football is either blind , stupid or chatting shit
I'm over the fucking moon to see the back of this bellend. 2 months overdue in my mind - we could have made a real go of the top 4 and cup final if we had a bit more time but we've sat on it too long now. In any case I can't wait to see some enthusiasm for attacking football back and I don't honestly care if we lose every game until the end of the season so long as we start playing the right way again.
The leaks of his treatment and players' reactions are so obvious and telling, the guy is a joke. Bye bye Mourinho, you will be forgotten.

A minute of silence for all the Mourinhistas who jump from club to club, from forum to forum, passionately writing long and beautiful essays with their left hand, while furiously masturbating with their right one (or vice-versa, I don't judge).

I never get this argument as a working professional.
My boss pays me to work.
He doesn't have to like me, I don't have to like him.
Its a job. Get on with it.
Where are your arguments apart from "he has won things years ago at other clubs"?
Here is the argument loud and clear: our form, results, player selection consistency and performances since the start of December, including being knocked out of 2 competitions, and our results last season, shows that Mourinho is F I N I S H E D.
A Specialist in Failure
I'm annoyed at myself for getting suckered in by him in the first place, but I did believe that he would be successful to start with. I was even up for sacrificing attractive football in the short term to land that first trophy. I felt he deserved our support but he made it impossible for us to sustain that. The constant surrender of points, throwing players under the bus, the rubbish tactics and he never took the blame for any of it.
I'm glad he's gone, before he did any more damage.

Nope. Wrong.
Having been in management it's waaaaay more productive to have staff on side.
Is it always perfect? No. Sometimes you have to make unpopular decisions but employees want to be listened to and a good boss is a leader and not just a manager...it's the fundamentals of successful leadership.
It's okay...
I for one love being able to tell people "I TOLD YOU SO".
Childish to the extreme, I know, but it was so fucking clear that the man didn't change or learn new tactics.
Can we just wipe this thread from the server? This guy doesn't deserve to take server space which costs money.
Yes. He helped suck the 'Glory Glory' out of our club, didn't he?
Its an entertainment business. Used to play champagne football under poch. Under mourinho it was house wine. 15m a year for drab football. Sacking justified for the special once.
