FFS you couldn't turn on the TV last year without Mourinho whinging about having no one. He's starting to get on my nerves a little bit.

Not enough players, too many players, too many injuries so not enough players, too many games but too many players. What a miserable Cnut. The cnut earns MILLIONS a year doing a job he allegedly loves and does nothing but fcuking moan.

all part of his method, keeps players on their toes

Nah, plenty of ways to keep the players on their toes than saying the opposite of what you were saying just a few months back. Actually makes him look almost senile if anything

What was moaning about what he said?
Surely he was just deflecting from being asked about Alli.
Moaning and miserable, during his time here I'm just not seeing it. Seems to be the default response to any comment he makes. If anything he's going overboard on the nice guy act.

Or maybe the situation we're in now is just very different to the situation 6 months ago.
Spot on.
He's a lot more open about the problems he sees with the team and squad than Pochettino was for example. I don't think one way is much better than another. But his answers are perfectly fine.

Tom Huddlestone
Yes, a situation which is better than 6 months ago, when he complained he didn't have this or that...only last week he said we needed another striker so to go from that to 'oh my, i have too many players' is flip-flopping. One could almost say, getting in the excuses early
Pressure on him now though - 4 signings already (excluding Hart) and all 4 are probably starters. Jose has to deliver now

Better, but with more work to be done.Yes, a situation which is better than 6 months ago, when he complained he didn't have this or that...only last week he said we needed another striker so to go from that to 'oh my, i have too many players' is flip-flopping.

We still need a new striker... Reports are that we're after another centre back too.
So 6 or 7 new players in this window seems quite likely. That means the squad is a bit big, someone has to go.
Wanting another striker and wanting some players out can be true at the same time. In fact it seems very like to be true. I fail to see the issue.

The issue is the moaning about it like it's a terrible situation to be in. A terrible situation is not being able to get players in and being stuck with a dead squad and no choices of who to play every week, like West Ham or similar.
He can think the squad is big without speaking about, after all he has enough to work on getting the team to play effectively etc

Moaning is your description. I don't see it as moaning, he's accurately describing an issue right now.
He has to do press conferences. Answer questions that are brought up. That's a (small) part of his job. He can't just choose to spend that time on the training ground instead.

Tom Huddlestone
He is as much a master media manipulator as much as a 'top' coach. He knows how to answer questions and can choose to answer them to convey certain messages. Talking about 'my squad is too big' is setting up a narrative as is usually the case with him.
I saw it as unnecessary, you didn't. Cool.

If only there was a way he could talk to players directly. But if you talk to people in private how can you get press coverage? He's a publicity wh0re.

Are you saying that we have some fans who had made their minds up about him before he came here that he was crap.

To be more sure of whether he's moaning, you'd have to watch and hear him as he speaks. The words alone can be taken in different ways. The tone, facial expression etc etc that accompany them says still more.
