Might I suggest you were Hot Property back in the day because you were Manager of a
team that every season were up there fighting for Premiere League and
European Trophies.Of course you were in demand.I

teams sat home and in Europe.
A treble in his first season at Barcelona and another Champions League in just his first three seasons in management was a remarkable achievement, no question, and if anything his struggles at Bayern show that one can not simply inherit a good set of players and let them
do the rest, but while he revolutionised the game in 2009, he is now being found out and it is something of a surprise that he has no other
European Cup to his name since 2011 given the quality of
teams he's had at his disposal since then.
I know some are saying we shouldn't worry but to be honest I'm worried, we are playing a Mourinho

teams» before we can consider winning the minor
European trophy.
we have at most 4 real quality outfielders i.e. players that other top

do nt lose opening 2 matches for first time in over two decades... but no one is really confident against a
team which is sure to finish around mid table...

team at the

the reality is they won because they had a game plan (counter away and sit back at home and they executed it correctly classic
European tactic never fails) for away from home and we didn't take them seriously enough at home, and they defended for there lives at home and we couldn't find the decisive goal to finish them off this is very typical c / l trend nowadays how many of the modern
