Ivanov87 got a reaction from ashwin in Antonio Conte - Now Officially ManagerThis is what I like i about him too. No embarrassing of field dramas and constantly getting in the news. Once the game is over we never hear from him again till the next fixture. Even opposition fans who despised us are now warming to us because of him.

Ivanov87 got a reaction from Sexyfootball in Jose Mourinho threadUsually happens when your team beats a bitter rival. I understand with your split loyalties between Jose and Chelsea you're very confused right now and that's okay. Me, I'm 100% chelsea so I don't have that problem. Like @Ernie_blue said, I'm running out of tissues.

Ivanov87 reacted to RMH in Jose Mourinho threadI didn't join in the singing in the Matthew Harding Lower, but it is also true that as it started the chant changed to "Antonio" within less than 30 seconds, and I saw some supporters telling off others for singing against Mourinho. But, respecting what he has done at Chelsea, I'm amazed that we can call footballers and refs "w*****s", tell them to "f*ck off", sing Pogba "birdsh*t on your head" or "waste of money", call ManU and other fans "northern bar stewards", but we can't sing Mourinho to "f*ck off" when he is behaving nastily with our players and being aggressive with our actual manager. We only started singing that when Mourinho went off his head (can't recall the exact moment but it was after the red card). Our fans reacted to him behaving like the pr*t he is. He should have shown some respect towards this club and us fans, and we would have surely shown him respect. We applaud Mata, Lampard at City, or Cech at LeArse, surely we would have done that to him (or ignore him at most) if he had not started his personal vendetta.
Having said that, shouldn't we just turn the page and ignore him. He is a pr*ck, we know it, just leave him be. Ignoring him is the best thing we can do to turn him more bitter, he can't help himself and we've seen it in the PL and in La Liga.

Ivanov87 reacted to Zeta in Antonio Conte - Now Officially ManagerOne of the key differences I've noticed between Conte and Mourinho, is that Conte is able to separate what goes on on the field, with what goes on off it. He can be shouting and screaming and in your face on the sidelines, but after the game he is calm and measured in what he says, whereas Jose seems to let his emotions from the game boil over into his interviews.

Ivanov87 reacted to dR3 in Jose Mourinho threadDo you guys remember what Jose said when Lampard joined City?
"When he decided to go to a direct competitor then love stories are over."
Same thing applies in this case.

Ivanov87 reacted to TheChelseaBlues in Antonio Conte - Now Officially ManagerSaid he hopes to reach Jose levels in terms of winning which is something you'd never imagine Jose saying about the manager before him. Even if he's following Fergie

Ivanov87 reacted to Andreas in Jose Mourinho threadJosè. While I don't agree with the chanting against him he doesn't help himself does he.
Small digs at us ever since he became United manager, the rows with Conte and the gesturing at the ref.
I respect him him for what he has done for us but he has always been classless. Even we knew it when he was here. The last season he was just embarrassing.
Its his style.
Conte just oozes class while Mourinho is a sour grape.

Ivanov87 reacted to All Barco no bite in Jose Mourinho threadThe only reason Mourinho is so bitter towards Chelsea this season is because we are playing some incredible football and are running away with the title. Were the positions swapped and we were stuck in 6th i'd put my money on him being humble and praising Chelsea a lot more.
As for his tactics last night, i'm fine with him setting his players to man mark the best player in the league, but to go out and kick and stamp and potentially injure the opposition is just disgusting. He then had the audacity to shout at our players for 'diving' and kick balls towards Conte etc. Always respected the bloke but lost a hell of a lot of respect for him last night.
He only has himself to blame for his managerial fall from grace.

Ivanov87 reacted to cuppaT in Jose Mourinho threadBecause literally no manager on earth but Jose could have won 3 titles with those squads...

Ivanov87 reacted to Blue Exile in Jose Mourinho threadHe's bitter and charmless now, not just where CFC are concerned either. Such a stark contrast to the guy who arrived in London all them years ago.
He hasn't been the same since his spell in Madrid.
It's a shame really.
-
Ivanov87 reacted to TheChelseaBlues in Jose Mourinho threadHe won't last long there if he carries on like this. They can take him losing it if he is finishing 1st or 2nd, not 6th with an efl cup. He's lost it today IMO. United brass were wary of exactly this behavior and playing the way they set out to play doesn't do him any favors either.
Conte and us beating him have driven him to the edge. Unless there's a major leap next season it's hard to imagine they will keep him given the wealth of younger manager talent out there.
(Good on Conte for not responding to him in the press and even praising him, thats the kind of thing thats gets under a bullys skin)

Ivanov87 reacted to JM7 in Jose Mourinho threadYeah probbarly singing "f**k off Mourinho" was too much but he has said that he is "100% United" now. Football is tribal, Jose knows that.
He doesn't need to be making digs, criticising the club etc. He is making the relationship sour. He could been respectful but he had to be antagonist.
-
Ivanov87 reacted to EdinburghBlue in Jose Mourinho threadJose summed it up himself for me tonight. He said 'I'll defend and back my club and players' or something to that effect.
That's fine but so will our support. We're Chelsea FC not Mourinho FC. If he's going to go in to press conferences/on the touchline and take pot shots at our club and our manager then our supporters will defend our players, our club, our manager.
Jose has soured this relationship, not the Chelsea support. We supported him when we were dire last year, welcomed him back warmly at the start of the season. It's only since he started acting bitter towards us it's all gone wrong.
i love and respect him for what he done for us, but the love affair is over now, his behaviour towards a club he was supposed to love has been appalling.
-
Ivanov87 reacted to gojo_ed in Jose Mourinho threadIt's in Mourinho's DNA to be an antagonist, he finds it difficult to do it any other way. Not always a bad thing of course- we know more than any other club that the 'us against the world' mentality in 2005 produced phenomenal results. However he came back to us as the 'Happy One' which lasted about a week before he was up to his usual mind games, albeit much grumpier this time around.
His posturing to Conte and the crowd is just wummery, don't rise to it or give him an excuse to play the victim card (in Brazil so couldn't watch but sounds like a minority singing against him?). Let our football do the talking, support our coach and players first- as has been the case all season.

Ivanov87 reacted to icecoolguy22 in Jose Mourinho threadThroughout the season, Jose been after 2 things : send off an opposing player and get a penalty. It all happened last Saturday, pity they still couldn't win the game.
