Couldn't expect a different response from a classy Chelsea fan such as yourself. Did you even read my post? I even said I believe in Mourinho's method, all I did was retort your comment about West Brom and every word I said was correct, and it's not like Tony Pullis has never been hounded for playing boring football and the same goes for Martin O'Neil, Sam Allardyce, and Louis Van Gaal recently with his hoof to Fellaini tactics. Maybe Chelsea do play decent football vs the weak sides but any decent side and Chelsea will take the points, again fine by me I wish our manager was the same, but you cannot be surprised at the criticism that is received especially when it is 100% valid.
Yeah, you said that you "believe in Mourinho's methods", strictly in the sense of emphasizing results over quality of football, and then you said that all the criticism that he and the club get is, in your opinion, absolutely valid. Believe it or not, us fans are his biggest critics when it comes to being negative to avoid defeat rather than going for the win, especially when it backfires, like against PSG. But there's a distinct difference between games where Mourinho sets the team up to sit back, not care about possession, hoping to nick a goal on the break and then sit back and see out the rest of the game, and games where the players genuinly try to pressure the opposing defence, trying to create chances but just aren't able to score. But we're criticised for both, which is bullshit of the highest degree. We're not going to win the title because we didn't do anything but park the bus all season, that was what we did last season. We signed Costa who brought more goals into the team, and who is the sole reason we're so close to winning the title, but without him, we're helpless, Hazard's not clinical enough and Oscar has dropped off. Rémy's scored some important goals but he's no Costa and he's injured most of the time. Mikel, Willian, Ramires, Cuadrado, Drogba, all names that are invisible on the score sheet apart from the odd goal once in a couple of games, Cuadrado hasn't even scored yet ffs.
