Which Klopp did: did Mourinho?

 

Guardian rumour article with funny intro

https://www.theguardian.com/football/2017/feb/02/football-transfer-rumours-zlatan-ibrahimovic-napoli


Miracle Man José Mourinho is doing miraculous work at Manchester United at the moment, somehow keeping them in a heroic sixth place despite not being allowed to spend any money last summer and despite referees being out to get him and despite him hearing a strange clicking sound every time he uses his phone and despite a strange luminous light appearing outside his bedroom window every night.

Against all the odds, he muddles on. Not to fear, though, because at long last the purse strings at Old Trafford are about to be loosened and Mourinho’s going to be rewarded for his patience with £85m in shopping money, all of which will go on Atlético Madrid’s Antoine Griezmann. The era of austerity is over! Now you’ll see the real Manchester United! Just watch José go now!

Here's an interesting article about the treatment of Mourinho compared with other managers

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/football...ave-point-conspiracy-against-man-utd-manager/

The article itself isn't great but bear in mind when reading that it needs to add the behaviour of three different managers together to compare to just one Mourinho

 

I must have missed the times he bit the 4th official or the ref.

 

He really is a horrible, horrible ****. A team and manager made for each other

 

Yeah mate, and nothing to do with trying to ensure that the ref doesn't put it in his report whatsoever.

Decent people maybe don't get in someone's face yelling at them - passion though eh, it's all gravy.

 

Eye gouging is not biting
Biting by Defoe is not biting
Suarez biting is biting
Point proven

Yeah I'm sure the ref was waiting around for an hour to watch Klopp's interview before deciding what to put in his report

 

It wasn't racist because he's from South America - it's sound over there

He didn't really bite him, there was no blood.

 

It wasn't sexist abuse because it's just abuse that refers to her sex

He questioned the integrity of all the referees being against him not singling out the one he had that day

 

he's a mad man... you'd love him as your manager not the snide **** you have.

reckon walsh will do moe for you than that dutch twat ever will.

 

There's only you talking about him you flute, I was talking about Klopp.

 

Snide ****? Based on what?

Koeman says it as it is, he doesn't feel the need to act like a ****ing baboon on the touchline though.

 

his consistent attitude and falling out with everyone.

the guys had a long history of it going back 25 years.

klopp was probabaly talking all night to the 4th offical and treated him like a mate. klopp's not been passionate enough in prior games IMO. first big game since utd and we play better. obviously klopp's a big game man as well as his players

 

I know you like a good spat, especially with astro, but I don't know how you can continue to defend Mourinho, tbh.
I've no idea what he's like in his private life, but his public persona as a football manager is really unpleasant. Attention-seeking, constantly whining when he doesn't get his own way, blaming everyone else for things going wrong, trying to deflect criticism onto others, abusive, unapologetic, paranoid..... the list goes on.
Horrible man - in public at least.

 

do you even follow Everton bro?

 

Twitter you say....

 

Tobes defendin man united? Who'd have thought it

 

you think they're all #fake ?

How about https://www.grandoldteam.com/2016/06/15/koeman-feel-moyes/ then?

With a face like a bee stung Eskimo, Koeman has shown adaptability in his approach to the game which hopefully means the opposition will not be turning up smug to Goodison knowing exactly what to expect and too often achieving their aims. He also has more than a fair smattering of arl arse about him so that should manifest into Everton players snapping into tackles on the pitch of which there’s no greater aphrodisiac for the loyal masses watching. We love a snide ****hawk antagonising the various ****heads that have the temerity to try to play on our pitch every fortnight.

 

He's a straight talker, takes no bullshit and doesn't try and flower up a turd.

After Mr Phenomenal it's extremely refreshing.

We no longer doff our caps and accept bollocks decisions with good grace, so if that constitutes 'snide' them I'm all for it.

Last night was a classic example, the lino gave our goal offside, but we complained to the ref and he overturned the call - correctly. Under Martinez we'd have trudged away and taken it.
