Stevosnakeye, tbh mate I think you’re right wise fan probably isn’t Syd even though he may have some of the same traits.

But what you have to understand is that these attacks on Mourinho have been going on for a good couple of years now and it does get a bit wearing. But you’re right as is wisefan everybody is entitled to their opinion even if a number find it trying and don’t agree with it.

My personal view is that it’s currently a pointless debate which was the point I was trying to make earlier, the only person who has a say on what will or won’t happen re Mourinho is Roman and whilst he won’t be happy with where we find ourselves and some of the things Jose has got himself involved in this season he is aware of what Jose has previously delivered inc a PL title but 5 months ago and he is also aware of the significant support Mourinho still enjoys with the match going fans at SB and even more so with the away fans.

Those two aspects,Jose’s previous success and the match going fans significasnt ongoing support for Mourinho together with the limited list of better options even looking as forward as next summer are what is holding Roman back from taking any definitive decision right now imo and that is before we get in to the area of compensation for Mourinho and his staff and what it might cost to extricate someone like for instance Simeone from his contract next summer.

Obviously if the results don’t improve ultimately Roman will be left with no option but to make a change but right now I think Roman is probably trying to give Mourinho every chance to turn it around for all of the reasons indicated above and all of us whether pro or anti Mourinho are just going to have to wait and see how it all eventually maps out.
