Mourinho to be sacked

There is a big difference between Arrogance and Confidence. The two are often confused with each other

I must have missed it. He's antics annoy me on the pitch, rolling around and screaming like he's been shot but I don't remember him diving at the weekend.

He rightfully got booked at the weekend for diving to win a penalty. Keep up lad !

Didn't think it was a dive, thought he got stood on. In general he is a **** though and I struggle to see what he offers the team really that they don't already have.

Herrera is a typical Mourinho player, sly and a moany little weasel who when he is booked for fouling, throws the toys outa the pram when Ray Charles would see he fouled.  It wasn't a dive, nor was it a foul for a penalty, the ref got it spot on.

Got a good laugh out of a snippet of a fan on a show similar to Arsenal fan TV describing Herrera last night on off the ball "not box to box, can't defend, no range of passing, what type of a midfielder is he!" in a deep mancunian accent

There is a big difference between Arrogance and Confidence. The two are often confused with each other I agree, but all the best managers were more than confident, they had, and still have, to a certain extent, a cocksure swagger about them. Clough, Stein, Ferguson,Shankly, Herrera, Michels, Cruyff, Zagallo etc. were all arrogant in one way or another. It isn't always a bad thing, the bravado is often necessary.

Great post PM Jose is a complete dick fans will get tired of him and I bet players too. Lukaku was woeful v Liverpool at holding up the ball. That should be coachable thing to do with enough work. From looking at lukaku recent weeks it’s not looked it was worked on at all. Personally can’t stand Jose. It’s fine like Ferguson pissed off everyone but you knew he always had supporters and players backing (if he didn’t they were out you might say 😂) but Jose pisses everyone off including his own players and fans big time and mostly he pisses me off.

It is just that Jose is rather boring. He may have intrigued the media for a little while and intimidated some referees, but the act has worn thin very quickly. I doubt Pep even gave him a second thought before the weekend's match. Wenger aside, Jose has list any influence he has had over opponents and has really just become a caricature of himself, he is the Dunphy of football management, in essence.
I know the personality cult of the manager has faded in the modern game, especially with the advancement of 'head' coaches, but I doubt there will be a huge interest in Mourinho in the future, while I would imagine Pep, who is himself arrogant in his own way, will continue to fascinate.

He pre-meditated and created the contact in order to deceive the ref
Just because there’s contact, doesn’t mean it isn’t a dive.
Shouldn’t be enough to send a grown man to the ground. A dive
