Mourinho has branded the FA, who just suspended Eric Dier for 4 games “powerful people who do not have a clue”, in a rant ahead of another must-win match this evening.
The crucial extracts are below, but the full PDF is available here, and the FA haven’t done anything vaguely wrong. This site has always published without fear or favour, so the fact that Dier is Tottenham makes no odds.
Patrick Dier set upon a fan that was verbally abusing his brother. Which is assault. Eric Dier then marching up the stands to ‘sort out’ the situation isn’t any more acceptable.
You have to pick your fights in this life, and this vocal defence of the indefensible is one that Mourinho ought to have let go. The Special One has embarrassed himself here.
Eric is an anagram of vigilante.
Would you care about your work mates if you thought your brother was about to get a kicking?
Just about everyone looks better than us. Morale is at rock bottom from the players who see that they are just part of a selling club with no ambition.
Dress it up whatever way you like Dier has let his
team down, bad enough at any time but at the wrong end of a woeful season when everyone (except Tanguy) was needed makes it worse. Same as Sonny’s sending off, lack of discipline on top of all our other problems.
The Torture Never Stops . Maybe Dier is more suited to working in a Stone Quarry .
People with character dont get embarrassed so Jose will be fine.
COYS
Big up yourself Jose. Side with your unit.
Well hopefully this week he has only embarrassed himself off the pitch rather than on it…I fear that may not be the case. Even while losing 3-1 Bournemouth looked better than us.
