Don't buy about 99% of whats in this thread. First off this whole 3rd season syndrome, if that's the case, then clubs would just hire him for two years. Listen to players on the record and off the record, they all say Jose is a different beast behind the scenes and certainly not the monster the press decide to create.
In regards to last nights game and post match presser, rather than reading the loaded agendas from 'Chief football writer' for X Y Z BS newspaper, watch the full un-edited conference. A lot of what he says makes absolute sense. He asked for five players, he has got 2 and I dare say Dalot was one earmarked for the future.
Martial: If he is world class at his next club, great. He's had chances to shine and he has been inconsistent at best.
Behind the scenes, it 'Looks' like there is positive change. A new direction on scouting and recruitment. He has moved on from Rui Faria and recruited from within with Carrick and More importantly Kiearn McKenna. His previous team played a high tempo counter-attacking game which you saw glimpses of last night in the first half.
LVG and Moyes were absolute stains on our club but more importantly, the buck stops above Jose. If Jose (or any manager) says I need the following players to make a push for either Champions League or Premier League then if the board don't deliver then why is that on Jose ?.
If you get rid of Jose, who do you put in? All the press crow about Pep, great football to watch to a certain extent, then it becomes a clinical exercise in ball retention. Dull as dishwater and Bayern fans were glad to see the back of him. Has he been tested anywhere where he doesn't click his fingers and works with a team with at least 5 top tier players if not more along with pretty much an open chequebook?
Klopp ??? Always the bridesmaid never the bride. An outstanding track record in finishing as runner-up, no thanks. I will back him though when he says he had the chance to join Utd but he thought it was too much of a theme park. That goes right back to Woodward and the Glazers.
Pocchetino ????? Bottles it and gets outhought in the really big games that matter. Give it five years then maybe.
Didn't really like Jose at Chelsea but **** me I will back him. Does he have the players he needs to deliver the football he wants and I don't think he does. I look at Liverpool, great team but not just there yet. Built on the foundation of high press from the front and Jurgen has pretty much the players at his disposal for his style of football and system. Pep has probably the best midfield in Europe, again built on his philosophy. For Jose, his best football has come as counter-attacking, physically strong team. Any wonder why he wants a strong back line. I've watched Utd long enough to see that counter-attacking football can and is a joy to watch. Again the press will have you believe that ball retention and possession are more important than goals. Not a single ball has been kicked in anger this season and we are calling out Jose on the basis of getting beat off Liverpool in some pre-season warm-up game?
