It's not Mourinho it's the players.
feck that
I hear that every year,
Since Moyes we have spend more than 500 million euro on players. How the feck is this still a usuable argument ?
The team has totally been renewed except for a few players, all have been signings for which we have paid good money, all have been players we said have alot of talent and were very good players at their previous clubs. How can the fecking problem than still be that we don't have any good players ? I'am tired of this argument, it is complete bullshit.
We have good players but we have a shit manager who can't let them play together as a good team.
I see so many names of players being thrown around that we should get and would magically fix all our problems because they are playing very good at their respective clubs right now. But when these players would be bought by us and put into our shit team that doesn't work at all, half a season later we will have people like you saying again how shit these players actually are and that we need better ones.
Mourinho has had much more cash to spend last summer than teams like Spurs, Liverpool, Arsenal and even Chelsea. He has bought Pogba who we all went muppet crazy about as he was super good at Juventus and touted as one of the best midfielders in the world. We brought in Zlatan who has been for years one of the best strikers in the game and we also bought Mkhitaryan who was voted last year as the best player in the Bundesliga and had scored like 30+ goals and scored 20+ assists. He also inherited Martial and Rashford who were touted as being 2 of the best talents in the PL, Martial was even credited for being our best player last year and one of our only real talented attackers who could create something. Then you have Mata, Herrera, DDG etc, all players who have shown plenty of times that they are very good players.
How in godsname is it possible when you have all that player material to still walk away from any criticism and blame everything on the players ?
Yes Martial plays really really bad atm, he is completley out of form and completley devoid of any confidence, you think that just magically happend all of a sudden and Mourinho and his management doesn't have any part in this at all ? Same can be said about using Rashford as a winger which just isn't working at all and never will because he is a striker and plays his best football centrally, not on the wings. He also seems to have completley destroyed Shaw and keeps using the same idiots on leftback as always being Darmian, Rojo and Blind. But than it is easy to say our wing play isn't good and we lack movement upfront from our striker and we don't have good wingbacks if you completley feck up every good player we had in the team and mess around with their possition.
Basically the only thing Mourinho has done all season is he made us very hard to beat and he put Zlatan upfront and he hopes Zlatan will score enough goals to win the game. That is his brilliant strategy and it is no surprise it isn't brining us good football and victories.
its not like the best managers need the cream of the cream to be successful do they? Or are we dismissing the two Manchester club's squads as not good enough to challenge for the title
