Agree with all that apart from possibly his in game management and reacting to a change of circumstance.
That’s where Rafa is the king and although it irks me to admit it Mourinho is also top notch.
Think that's a little overrated as well, ie the criticism of that. How many games have been pulled out of the fire this season?
Still see a load criticising him for bringing Firmino on "too late" at Barca - considering the lad is still out until the final, I would say he was his "smash the glass" option and as such was really avoiding the use.
In a season that we've accrued at least 94 points and are in the CL final, having pulled so many games out late, I think it's a bit disingenuous to say that he's lacking something that Rafa and Mourinho have more of?
No criticism of you by the way, more a response to the general narrative. He's not perfect, but I don't think he's any worse than those mentioned.
