The Mourinho Thread

[ChelseaFanUK 1,014]

The fact he has stayed this long has convinced me that he will not be sacked until either a.) the end of the season, or b.) it becomes mathematically impossible to qualify for the CL.

The latter needs a monster run of wins, and utd, city, arsenal, liverpool to have awful runs of form.

[MrBlueGuy 1,552]

Come one, we all know that is never happening.

Do we? just like going from champions to losing your 1st 7 of the 12 matches in the next season with a mostly fully fit squad?

[MrBlueGuy 1,552]

If Jose stays it would be madness to buy in January ,,IMO the options are sack him now or write off this season completely and wait till next year to restart

Hopeully not in the championship

Take a serious at M'gladbach, they've risen from the ashes, after the coach who took them to the CL for the first time in ages resigned and the new coach, relatively unknown, has made them play smoothly since. I understand the sentimentality for him, but come on, you can't look past the damage his coaching's causing at an alarming rate, that even the most serene person would be challenged by the frustrating soap opera BS the club is currently in. We're even 1000 times worse than the likes of Dortmund last year and Moyes' United at this point of the season. The tactics are so useless for a squad of this caliber. His coaching is archaic and non-dynamic. He's got low flexibility.

Right now, we're looking at future humiliations by the likes of f**king United, Leicester, Tottenham, Watford, Sunderland, etc as a given. If you take a moment to think about those upcoming games, do you honestly feel an air optimism about them? I really doubt it. Many are rightfully being behind him, but the sooner he's out, the much more time the club will get to regenerate and control the colossal damage that's been inflicted so far.

I've actually voted differently in this poll and went with 'No'.

The reason I wanted Jose sacked about a month and a half ago was that at the time (I thought) top 4 finish was still salvageable. Obviously, that is no longer the case, so there is little motivation to sack him right now, imo.

Clearly still has to go at the end of the season, though, and the board has a lot of time to plan for everything so there can be no excuses.

I agree there's no hope but I want him gone for other reasons. I'm sick of the BS. The mind games, the immature garbage. The tantrums. I don't find it endearing or interesting. It's extremely childish. I want a manager who can just shut up and manage the team sans drama. Chelsea doesn't just need a new manager, it needs a culture change.

He traded Mata, Lukaku and KDB for a Capital One and league title, is this worth it we might have to ask ourselves when Lukaku earn his 50m transfer to PSG or KDB is included in World 11 in a couple of years.

KDB yes but Mata has been bang average since early 2013.

[Tomo 21,733]

Even if that means facing relegation?

You can't be serious?

You can't be serious?

of course he is being ridiculous we are THREE points clear and we have a better GD

[Muzchap 8,966]

I find the arrogance that we won't be dragged into a relegation battle pretty disturbing

Our form is atrocious

What right do we have not to get relegated?

I know I will be ridiculed for this but we have steadily dropped down the table - how low do we have to sink, before it becomes an option?

[HRiver 1,512]

New poll, same answer.

We're not gonna get relegated bro that much I can assure you

[Spike 12,049]

I'd still be a Chelsea fan if they were relegated.

[zolayes 14,489]

I'd still be a Chelsea fan if they were relegated.

I was when we were ,, and even when we were close to going down lower

The hardest times are when the Club treat people badly ... Ranieri Ancelotti Wilkins ,, Ballack A Cole and Eva .

its more than just tin cups

[Clockwork 1,794]

It is not a big deal but what is the point of the "Undecided" option?

You Just don't vote if you are undecided.

I remember you. Haven't seen you around here in ages. And I agree.

If he is going anywhere, really doubt its related to "fan support the other night". Fans are not spending up to 10m a year with Jose Mourinho, so its easy to chant is name right after the team score a goal, or at the end of the game when the team is winning. Instead of chanting "Jose Mourinho", at the end of Liverpool game the stadium was going home before the final whistle.

try coming to a few games !!!! we support the club and manager ( bar Benitez because he was a wrong'un ) how dare you criticize the support

He is from Brazil of course he cant come to games that doesnt make his opinions invalid . Actually I didnt want Benitez but he did an excellent job for us .

Apart from losing that game, don't you think that the overall style of play is getting better and better?

Today the team created goal scoring opportunities, but was unlucky and spoiled it in the end.

For me that's a positive development, if we can continue like this, i don't think we are going to get relegated.

We have won some games so far, so some confidence should be there.

Reaching top 3 has become really difficult now, most likely we have to refrain from that goal.

That realism should be mentioned.

The start of the upcoming week will be very exciting, i hope that the sack isn't coming, it could happen, sadly.
