My main disappointment in Mourinho so far has been the lack of any obvious plan. We have a lot of the pieces, hopefully he has found a way of putting them together.
How on earth can you have an effective plan with all the injuries and suspensions he has had to put up with. In case people with short memories forget, I will remind them:
In Poch's last 17 matches he had 4 wins, 6 draws and 7 losses. In his first 17 matches, JM had 8 wins, 3 draws and 6 losses.
Win percentage : Poch 24%, JM 47%
Goals scored: Poch 21, JM 29
Goals conceded: Poch 22, JM 23
Clean sheets: Poch 2, JM 3
Shots: Poch 225, JM 202
Shots faced: Poch 251, JM 240
Shots on target: Poch 71, JM 81
Shots on target faced: Poch 99, JM 76
Passes per game: Poch 527, JM 476
Pass accuracy Poch 83.4%, JM 79.0%
Possession: Poch 56%, JM 50%
Points: Poch 18, JM 27
So by virtually every metric JM's team was performing better than Poch's. And that was without a pre-season and robbed of three of its most important players - Kane, Son and Sissoko with Bergwyn also not available in the most recent games.
FFS, give the guy a chance!!! He got us to within striking distance of Chelscum in 4th before the wheels came off and we were riddled with injuries.
BTW, anyone know if City had their appeal upheld or are they still banned from European Competitions for two years?
