And yes Jose will be pleased, but he hasn't got a result yet, and anyone who thinks football is all about the result can't be a real football fan, and probably has never paid money to go and see a game. Not aimed at you Fin, the attitude just really frustrates me.
Of course not. I'm a big Jose fan, he's a prick at the best of times and the style against bigger sides or in important matches, especially away can't be considered pleasant to watch. But it's effective and it's brought a lot of success to various sides. His sides are also more than capable of playing some lovely stuff and they've been excellent to watch at points this season.
If people honestly think it's awful then spend £800 watching an Allardyce side all season, even more pragmatic, with none of the entertainment or results.
If you had Hazard, Oscar, Willian, Torres, Eto'o, Schurrle, Lampard, Luiz...I'm sure you'd play some nice stuff at times too, even with big Sam. When it matters, Mourinho goes into ultra defensive, cynical mode, and it's inexcusable imo, all of his teams could have won what they did playing football, he's tactically good enough. Look at the City game earlier in the season, Chelsea defended well, but they dominated in midfield and played well, and it was a good game. That's what Mourinho should be about.
