José

[Guest]

I like the man. He talks bollocks most of the time but he's a decent man. It's just his style of playing mind games and riling up opposing managers.

I liked the way he went to his supporters after the match against Arsenal and urged them to applaud the Chelsea players. He reminded me of the way Shankly used to do that (from what I've read and seen on videos as I wasn't even born when Shankly was manager). He'll be a great loss to the English game if he goes (I don't think he will though unless he's sacked).

As for Chelsea, what an effort they made in that second half. They were magnificent even with 10 men and a second fiddle team. Their spirit was absolutely wonderful.

We need that type of spirit at our club, that never say die attitude. We were found wanting for too many games when we should have rallied back but never did. It's with these type of games, where all seem lost, that all true winners stand out. We don't have that many. Tactics goes out of the equation.

I agree about JM. However I think at times he makes it hard on himself. Some of the comments about us and Utd have been madness.

But I think the PL would be dull without him and Fergie.

Yes, he's gone OTT with the Ronaldo comments, but I think it's just built in his ADN and that he's fiercely competitive as a man. Fergie is the same, he hates losing. Look at JM's players yesterday during that second half and the late stages of the game, they hugely impressed me with their desire. I see only United matching them at that in the league. We're nowhere as near as competitive as that. He also gambled yesterday, trying to rest Drogba and co for the match on Wednesday, by still trying to win that game against Arsenal.

Rafa doesn't look as fiercely competitive as them (JM & Fergie), as he's more of a thoughtful guy.

I don't dislike Mourinho as much as some and I can see that if he was at you club he would be a hero, however he has gone overboard with his comments on individuals and of late has become increasingly delusional with his post match analysis.

I think José does the extreme in everything he does. That's how he is. Some people just need to take what he says with a pinch of salt. If he was given the job ahead of Rafa, I think he would have chosen us, to be honest.
