2020/21 Carlo Ancelotti

Beating Spurs away.

Not as good as when we beat Man U at Old Trafford 1-0 under Martinez.

 

[hktoffee]

As will Mourinho!

Just what is it with these extremely successful managers? Why do they keep on prioritising defence over attack? What a pair of buffoons!

Then mate who do you think will do a better job?

Lol he had to thank Moyes for setting up a proper defence.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAUA

what the [Poor language removed] is this? Wolves are about 15th lad and Leicester have lost at home to Leeds, Fulham and villa as well as us.

Yeah I thought Wolves had gone out of fashion a bit now that we have Leeds to be the new mid table flavour of the month, surprised some people still rate them.

 

[hktoffee]

It takes time but are we making progress? In October I'd have said yes absolutely but not now I'm afraid.

Ok then what would you do? What is your expectation he has been at this club for a year only.

 

[hktoffee]

He said Wolves away. I thought that was peculiar as they are crap.

Wolves are crap this season to be fair.

 

[Egil Olsen]

As will Mourinho!

Jose Mourinho has not set the world on fire for a long time. It's not long before Spurs fans turn against him.

Boss tactics by Martinez to beat them.

Everybody is beating anybody in the PL this season. Hence us being where we have been when we’ve put a few wins together, but facts are, we are now 8th.

The only bit I’m struggling with is that some of the performances this season have been really shockingly bad, yet half the forum seem to have amnesia with those.

Yes we have games in hand, but based on recent performances we could easily lose those as easily as we could dig a win out. We even struggled against Rotherham for Christ’s sake.

Against Leicester the other night, it was apparently a tactical masterclass to try and sneak a 1-0 win, then Leeds go and smash them today on their own pitch.

The only conclusion I can come to is yes we have improved under Carlo, but not enough yet and some of the typical dross we have seen in recent years is still being served up.

Like I said my expectation was and still is that at this point we'd see clear progress toward a sustainable style of play

With 2 games in hand.

I think the likes of Mourinho and Ancellotti know exactly what they are doing, and that they are both aware that you don’t win anything when your midfield is overrun and your defence is run ragged.

 

[Thomasc]

Yes I know, I covered that.

 

[kenada_blue]

Still in the mix.

Breathe

He'll be on the phone to one of the big boys in the summer. We're a club that talks a good game but that's about it.
