Mourinho prefers them slow and ageing.
Because he's all about short term success. Nothing like building a team that will be dominant for years.

If every top coach is provided with the resources they want, I think Mourinho may have an edge in the short term but guys like Pep, Klopp are patient enough to build a team that will still be there long after

I remember elampiro saying Matic has good ball retention. How has that helped this current squad?

If twas in a possession based team who bear down on the opponent Everytime they lose the ball maybe that would be useful.

Of what use is your ball retention ability in a defensive setup if you are slow and can't properly shield the back 4?

This team needs better tactics and attitude. This mediocrity has gone on for too long.
I actually think Matic is the best at ball retention in the club but what's done with the ball is where the problem is. We need our players to be able to retain the ball under pressure and make forward passes unless there's no way. Then we need the team to defend from front and attack from back. Unfortunately Jose is finished and can't supervise these changes

There are midfielders good with the ball and hungry for success in Holland, Germany, France etc but of course Mourinho needs to gather the best 22 players in the world before he can resume work

Lol. You're minding him. Hours after the match the players Mourinho bought were to blame and before you know it, it's the sugardaddies. Let's blame the sugardaddies, they ignored Man Utd.
When others are buying smart, buying exactly what they need, this one here is buying anyhow and now complaining that he wasn't supported just because it didn't work out

Since Klopp joined Liverpool, this is the net spend for the top 6 teams. But but Mourinho doesn't have sugar daddy

E be like this dante guy dey whine us jare. Club does not support Mourinho but Sanchez was given monster contract. No club in England will even consider that amount for a player.

Boateng was the only available defender among Mourinho's options. How is he faring at his present useless club?

For the whole 90 minutes, our midfield couldn't carry the ball from our half to their half successfully, but resorted to budeeing the ball to Lukaku. What kind of tactics is that? A club that has Mata, Fred, Pogba and Matic can't hold a decent midfield? These players are good with shielding the ball and passing on a good day, why can't they train to play with each other. Which kind devil be this Mourinho sef? Shaqiri was brought in to add to the attack but you take off the only mobile midfielder and brought in Fellaini. Abeg this guy is purposely destroying this club jare.

I can only fault the management for sticking with Mourinho this long. He would have been given the sack in some other places.

Sheik Man City, yen yen yen. Are they the only club? You didn't see Liverpool and Chelsea to compare, but it's sugar daddy nonsense you're spitting here. Abeg when Mourinho leaves you can follow him since you're a fan

Dantedasz:
Were these the players Sir Alex used to win the last title?
Only De gea,Phil Jones,Chris Smalling, Antonio Valencia and Ashley Young remain at the club from the players who won the last premier league title. I may be wrong but that is what I can pull out of my head right now.
Sir Alex saw the pending decline of the club and quickly retired before he would be disgraced.
There have been four managers since Sir Alex quit as the manager with the same poor results. That should tell you something is wrong.
1.David Notes.
2. Ryan Giggs(care taker status)
3.Louis Van Gael who won the F.A cup.
4.Jose Mourinho who won Europa cup.
This shows the problem is deeper than sacking the manager. I believe it has more to do with finances. Liverpool and Manchester City have unlimited war chests to sign any player they want. In fact looking at these team's they have at least two world class players for every position in the team.
Manchester United can not compete with these two teams except we get a sugar daddy Arab financier to buy out the debt the Glazer family has plunged the club into. By the way when was the last time any of the Glazers was at Old Trafford to watch the team play? It tells you something doesn't it?
I have been a supporter long enough to know Mourinho is a dead man walking until either January when the window opens or June when the season ends. He will be sacked.
I also believe Woodward has an agreement with Zidane to take over but whoever takes over the team without proper funding will always be in Man City and Liverpool's shadow except funding is provided to back the ambitions of the club.
Liverpool net spend is only higher than Tottenham. That you still believe the club hasn't supported Mourinho shows you're not really a supporter of the club but Mourinho. Who are the two world class players in every position at City and Liverpool? Was Shaqiri not available for 15m? Who was Wijnaldum and Robertson before they bought? Arnold and Gomez nko?

You can say all kind of things about the management but don't falsely accuse them of not supporting the manager. This management has out spent almost every other club in the league since Mourinho arrived

If you think Mourinho has lost it, what is ur take on Klopp considering the fact that he is yet to win even a spoon at Liverpool?
Despite Mourinho doing his best to get the sack and make his money, the club has refused to play ball. I think they're waiting for when it's mathematically impossible to meet any of his target

As for Klopp vs Mourinho, I'm not interested in history. I'm more interested in how the two managers are faring presently. Klopp is doing much better presently, he also did better last season. Since Klopp got to LFC, he has played both Europa and Champions League final. His team has more prospect and are rated far higher than Mourinho's. You do the math

If that is all Zlatan has to show for 120 appearance in the CL then he needs to bury his head in the sand

Zlatan 120 CL games 0 final.
Klose in less games got to the CL finals

World cup

Klose 2 finals 2 semis
Zlatan he was in a lowly team so that is why he couldnt score
Klose the greatest scam the world cup has ever seen. Germany really tried for him. They would have lost that final if they hadn't taken that bold step
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by eph12(m): 6:14am On Dec 16, 2018
Just like Zlatan, Klose biggest contribution was in the quarter finals. Fortunately for Klose, his team managed to finally win the competition and that was after binning Klose, when they realized that enough is enough.

Says who? cheesy

Zlatan has 12 league titles - That's the result of work done over 400 games

Klose has 1 WC - that's 7 games

So because Klose won a 7 game tournament in a summer, he is now greater than someone who won 12 league titles

ori e o da cheesy cheesy
Let's not forget that in this particular year, Klose only scored two goals. He was a carry along in that world cup win
