You're going through the "convince yourself phase". I can respect that, I've been there. You'll move on to the "WTF is this" dire stage soon. That's far more depressing but the good news it leads to the "thank fck he's gone" stage shortly after.

<laugh>

I got no problems with Jose...first name terms..love the guy

You must be mad if you think taking Son and Kane out of our team is not going to have a detrimental affect...I know that and I saw that tonight. We would have beaten them with them 2 in the team. Take your 2 best players out of your team and you’d be even ****ter than you are...think about it.

So...I’m cool with it...this is not on Jose
I’ve been saying that about United for a few weeks. Not as an excuse for Ole but just as a fact about how losing key players for long periods will hurt any team.

This is true and as much as we have had some injuries to big players if we had lost 2 of our front 3 for a prolonged period the league would be closer.

That would be a worry but Gomez and Matip would do a decent job but again 2 of them and you're trouble. I think that's the main point, you can lose 1 player in a part of the pitch but 2 and you're in the ****.

If they are long term injuries...like half a season stuff then a decent job would not be enough to maintain your current standards.

When we lost Kane we didnt feel it as much but now we lost Son aswell..both absences are being felt. My whole outlook for our season has changed since the Son injury.

replace Mane and Salah with Shaqiri and Origi for 6 months and you would see a massive change in results and performances in that time compared to your current stats. Hard to blame Jose for that...only a dickhead will blame a manager who has been here 3 months and hasn’t had a pre season or built his own team

Yeah I said as much in an earlier post. Next season though we'll have Minamino and Werner to come in for them. :biggrin:
 
Awww is that why you’re lashing out at Spurs for having injuries? and trying to pin it on the ex lover?

2 wrongs don’t make a right Twebz

Looks like I hit a little close to the truth yesterday if you're still bealin Spurly <whistle>

If you go back and check I never questioned the injuries will affect you. What I was simply pointing to was your living in denial about the "Mourinho" factor.

He like all managers only moan when it effects them but for us to play Sunday, Wednesday, Saturday lunch time is a joke...3 games in 6 days
There is no reason it couldn't have been Saturday Wednesday Sunday or Friday Wednesday Saturday both of which make it 3 games in 8 days.

Maureen is his own worse enemy cos he constantly whines but TV is making it difficult for all English clubs in Europe.

I might be wrong but I think you played late on Sunday, are playing in Greece tonight, playing late on Sunday, playing home next thursday, in the FA Cup on the following Monday, then again on the Saturday. That's 6 games in 20 days. If the toon match had been on a Friday and the last league game was on a Monday that would be 6 games in 24 days....huge difference.
