They would turn us over if we played them at present.

Love Carlo but Mourinho is the better fit for a team like us that has both a mentality problem and a soft core.

For me Carlo needs a squad of top players to play to his strengths hence why we are shipping 2 goals a game.

We're shipping goals because our goalkeeper is utter crap and injuries/suspensions are forcing tons of rotation in defensive positions. It'll get better (assuming we bench the buffoon in net).

And it doesn't matter we don't play them right now and the last time we did we won the match. This is just a fact.

How on earth have you come to that conclusion? Mourinho would cause absolute anarchy with our squad, they wouldn’t be able to down tools on him quick enough.

The other thing is Spurs will be set on fire before he leaves. Whether it ends in a trophy that makes it worthwhile or not is the only question. Our squad isn't winning a title right now so chances are we'd just be left in flames.

We were shipping goals even when we were winning - Spurs aside we haven't kept a clean sheet and conceeded twice against West Brom, Brighton & Fleetwood...

I'd see the board appointing Jose much the same as ancelotti.

These players wouldn't be allowed to down tools for a league and champions League winning manager.

I think you can put a lot of those on the keeper which I addressed.

Some managers just know how to set up a defence with limited players

Pickford played under both Allardyce & Silva yet we were shipping goals for fun under Silva.

I personally love the Mourinho/Simeone style of defending like wardogs its how limited sides can compete with the teams who can play through you.
