Jose Mourinho - SACKED

[Daisuk]

Mourinho bought Rodon, brought up Tanganga more or less, Reguilon, Højbjerg, Vinicius, he's a self-proclaimed fan of Lucas, Son and Kane, and have also said he likes Lo Celso and Ndombele. If he's so fond of so many players, how come he can't get more out of them?

Why is he throwing them under the bus? You're not doing a good enough job with them, you tosser.

This thread sums up my thoughts very well in particular "what’s the point in having one of the most expensive managers in world football if to achieve success he needs the absolute best players in their position?"

He’s proper hung Aurier and Toby out to dry with his post match comments too. There is obviously a problem there judging by his answers in the press conference.

It is hard to see it getting any better next season unless he changes 10 players in and 10 players out.

It is not Mourinho's way but he would do better with young players who would run all day for him.

We dont need that as a priority though - Kane, Son, Ndombele, GLC, Reguilon, Hojbjerg, Lloris...arguably Dele too...form the basis of a decent team. A genuinely title challenging team.

We then have a handful of able squad players (Rodon, Bergiwjn etc), who will be supplemented by Skipp and Sessegnon next season.

What we need is:
- 2 CBs
- a manager who will install a system

...and then, to your point, there's a lot of cleaning up to be done in terms of squad players, but fix the CBs and get a manager who implements a system, and the improvement will be massive

I’m not sure that second bit is true. It looks to me like whatever approach we have is based on players making decisions for themselves on the pitch, so it would be experienced pros he’d want.
Also Mourinho openly said we had good players before we came and he’s brought a few in since. The performances aren’t improving, we are inconsistent and struggle to dominate games against teams with much lower budgets.

You might be right, the majority of the players i despite are squad players.

Aurier, Doherty, Sanchez, Dier, Davies, Winks, Sissoko can all fcuk off. Should bring in 80m, for two centre halfs then bring in a right back.

My dream signing would be kessie from AC Milan, but not a position we are crying out for.

According to an article by Dan Kilpatrick, people at the club are calling gonads, Toby was back on Weds and was tested.

Kilpatrick is like Gold, he's another mouthpiece with direct lines to the club.

Well if that were true it would tinkle people higher up at the club and would start to be the beginning of the end.

I think the performances are the beginning of the end...question is what is the tipping point....

I think it might be 10 games into next season if we are already off the top 4 pace, Levy cares about money.

I'm doubtful Levy will act in the summer, he wants it to work as he spent so long chasing/wanting him - looks like we'll be somewhere 4th-6th this season and that's not going to be enough to force the issue.

I agree. I've always said that I don't see Jose being at Spurs around the end of this year, and November-ish feels like a natural time.

It might actually be for the best. We sign a CB or two so get some investment into the squad which convinces Kane to stay, and we change manager early next year that the season isn't a complete write-off

Yep my thoughts to. I think with slightly better defenders he might do better next season.

I miss the project, wanted to see us integrate youth players more and have an identity. Said it a few times but in cycling they take a longer term view to team building. It seems at spurs we are chasing top 4 and I think a bit like Arsenal will miss out for a few years, where as if we took a longer term view towards building a great team a team that could stay together and be very good for 5 years i think we would do better.

Saudi Sportswashing Machine today had 22 shots and an xG of 4.07.

Please explain how people think that's defendable for any manager let alone Spurs paying £15m a year for!?

I dont think many do, and I'd imagine that if the group on GG was in charge of the club, then Jose would be gone

I'd like him to be gone in the summer, but will Levy do it? I think its as best 50/50
