Good points from both sides, but Wilki is correct, until Mourinho builds a squad from the ground up, i cannot class him as the best. He did a lot of good work at Porto, but again, he had cash and he didnt put that squad together.

He's a good manager no doubt. But he ain't no special one that's for sure.

He has been given everything as you say because he had proven himself with Porto, this is when it all started. I would say he made Chelsea become what it became after his first spell, yes he had money, but, all managers after him had money too, only Ancelotti got something out of it and he is a great manager too. He went to Inter and we all know what happened there and he terminated Barca's dominace which most managers couldn't if you can remember. Other managers at Real had as much money to spend, but, couldn't do much against Pep's Barca. He came back to Chelsea, did better than the year before and this season he is going to win the league probably with a huge margin. He is the best manager in my opinion despite being an egocentric cu't. Now if you want him to start from scratch, it's not going to happen, very few greats go backwards in their carreers. And stop your BS about man crush/love etc, you look as stupid and ugly as your avatar, talk sense/facts rather.

He did well at Porto but that's not really hard. AVB also did well there.

Chelsea finished second before he joined and got to the semi of the ECL. I think Ranieri could've won the league had he stayed on as Romans money was already starting to take effect.

Inter were by far the best team in Italy before he joined and he just kept them where they were. The ECL was the one thing he can really be hailed for there.

At Real he only beat Barca to one title in three seasons. Hardly great considering what he had. No other manager has really done better granted but it's not great really is it?

And now Chelsea again. A team Rafa came second with and won a European trophy. He's spent massively again so should be where they are.

As I say. Good but not the special one.

And I'll post what the [oops] I like. You appear like you have a man crush on him as you bring him and the chavs up way too often. Maybe I'm as ugly as my avatar? Maybe I'm George Clooney? The insults are all welcome.

Let me start by qualifying my post for those who lack the intelligence to realise you can criticise players up to what they have shown thus far without excluding the possibility of improvement during a 38 game season. I am basing my opinion on what I've seen in the past, what the new players did last year and where they played, and what they've shown during this seasons infancy. By no means am I ruling out players getting better with time.

Squad depth was of course an issue we needed to look at during the summer, but as I and many said without buying a player of a certain class we will be left with a lot of maybes. Thus far those maybes have panned out exactly how I thought. How much spent on our forward line? Between 65 and 70 million? And marko lallana balo and lambert have all looked incredibly average. You could have bought 2 players with a higher chance of succeeding with that and had some change to spare. I think it was ninja or whatever his name is that claimed marko was the next Jesus, right now he looks exactly what most of the world said he would be; quick, okay, sometimes do something good, not worth 20 - 25 million.

Rodgers is a good tactician, fantastic man manager, but f!cking terrible at buying players. The more he buys the more it looks like Sturridge and cout were lucky successes more than good judgements. I'm sure the players and team will improve (I pray anyway), and it's not the end of the world. But we did what spurs did and it was f!cking stupid.

i actually thought markovic looked alrite yesterday..ok he didn't actually get into the game but when the ball came to him he looked good. i blame most of yesterday on balo. he is just doesn't run the channels ,we had no target and thus villa defended easily...he is sh1te.

A team Rafa came second with? Get your facts right else your posts will continue being cac but I know, you like posting the [oops] you like even if [oops].

Come on vish. Get those insults out. It's what you're best at.
