The money in football really has created some absolute pampered bellends. That's not directed at Mourinho more to players, overpaid players.
Too far gone to be rectified. Salary caps should have been introduced when things started getting mental in the 90sGeorge Graham had the right idea, the manager should always earn more than the players but that ship sadly sailed a long time ago. The money in modern day football is obscene. My question would be where does it stop? how far away are we from the first million pound a week player?
Or Gerrard. Its about respect, he says the days of the manager being the important one are over, this isnt true if the manager is respected, look at our club as an exampleCan't imagine someone like Guardiola, Klopp or Simeone feeling that.

If a manager treats his players the right way he will command respect. Simple.
I'm the same, maybe too "old school" for some folk but I really despair when I hear that multi million pound players have "downed tools" because their manager has upset the poor wee souls in some way.I can’t help but think that players nowadays have to much power. I have no real sympathy for him mind you. I enjoyed his early years but it soured for me with his attitude. Basically forced out at Chelsea and Man U.
Ranieri is another forced out but for me, that was a despicable act by the players after what he brought Leicester. Never liked them since.
Correct, now close the thread.His players downed tools and got him the sack, they’re supposed to be professional and play to the top of their ability every week, loss of form can happen, but the turnaround in Man U since Solksayer took over is indicative of the mindset of today’s Prima Donna footballers, they want all the glory with none of the responsibilities.
Jose didnt become a bad manager overnight and will return some club back to the top.
Mourinho won the EPL with Chelsea in 2015 losing only 3 games, he was also voted manager of the year and won the league cup to.Football has changed rather than Jose. His style of management just doesn’t work at the top level any more.
Mourinho won the EPL with Chelsea in 2015 losing only 3 games, he was also voted manager of the year and won the league cup to.
In 2017 he won the league cup again with Man u and went on to win the Europa league to, he was the first manu manager to win a trophy in his debut season, he won 2, including a European tournament.
Football hasn't changed, some teams in the EPL have improved and Man U has the Ferguson factor to contend with, in the last two seasons any other manager would be lauded for what Mourinho has achieved, take a look at the guy at Spurs, made out to be some kind of guru and has won bugger all, in fact Spurs have stagnated under him, yet he's touted as being a great!
Mourinho's record alone should see him demand respect from the best players in the world, however his last group decided they didn't want him and downed tools, the Man U fans have been cheated by a group of selfish egotistical overpaid prima donnas who are not hungry for success, quite the opposite, they're happy to lose and let others shoulder the responsibility.
Mourinho will be back, I hope he takes a job with the likes of a Porto again and gets his cheeky grin back with the clever quotes to the media.
Chelsea players did the same to him and Conte, now looks like their new manager is getting similar.His players downed tools and got him the sack, they’re supposed to be professional and play to the top of their ability every week, loss of form can happen, but the turnaround in Man U since Solksayer took over is indicative of the mindset of today’s Prima Donna footballers, they want all the glory with none of the responsibilities.

Mourinho will be Lawwell's rabbit out the hat and it will backfire spectacularly.
George Graham used to be contractually entitled to more money than the highest paid player.
In those days when the money was at a temperate level that prompted some form of control and authority.
Now the same wee dick who has played 18 minutes of senior football would be laughing at you whilst speeding out the car park in his Maserati on the phone to his agent to “find him a new challenge”
The next really big thing in football(of course it’s already in use to a degree and I’m glad we’re involved ourselves) will be personality profiling-what use is a £100mil player if they don’t give a fuc.k and take the piss out of you?
