The Mourinho Thread

[22mek22 133]

Might be me just being paranoid, but does anyone else think this is just not going to happen and all seems too good to be true?

Some sources saying its a done deal, others say its far from.

Also, surely they will announce manager before pre-season yeah?

Emenalo is the man behind Lukaku, Mata, Hazard and Oscar acquisitions.

Emenalo is also the man who convinced Abramovich to hire Rafa. Just saying...

Also, anyone could have (and did) spotted the quality of the players you mentioned. By the time Chelsea bought them they were already on everyone's radar so giving Emenalo credit for actually getting them on board is ridiculous. Sure, he might have played a role in the negotiations but considering the amount of money spent on those players, around 100 million pounds if I'm not mistaken, he didn't really do his job very well. Had he gotten players like that for cheap before they made it big time, he would be getting more credit but playing real life Football Manager and buying the best talent in the world by outspending other teams isn't really that hard. De Bruyne and Courtois on the other hand have been good signings and cheap too, I'll give him that.

What on earth has Michael Emenalo ever done to get so high up the food chain at a club like Chelsea? No footballing merits gained by coaching U13 girls so it must be something else. Being friends with Roman shouldn't really qualify and if his incompetence is standing in the way of the club going forward then he should be removed from his position, simple as that. With the sacking of Di Matteo, Roman showed that you can't be too sensitive when running a football club so now's his time to make some sacrifices for the good of the club as well.

So whast the bs? Tell me what is truth about Mourinho's return.

Calm down, stop looking for arguments.

[Jase 43,479]

The Telegraph and Independent have apparently reported Mourinho doesn't mind working with Emenalo.

And...

José Mourinho wants Chelsea job even if they are in the Europa League

I so do not believe that.

Lukaku is a huge fan of Chelsea so it wasnt hard to convince him. All three were bought by outbidding everyone else. Not that hard with Roman behind you.

Chelsea must fork out £12m to free Mourinho from Real Madrid

Mourinho is understood to not have a problem working with Roman Abramovich's hierarchy, including Chelsea's technical director, Michael Emenalo...

And there is something about Alonso in that story too.

To Perez: :lol2:

[OneMoSalah 8,810]

Jesus, don't know whether to believe all this stories or not. Probably end up announcing some bellend like Kenny Dalglish on a life time contract despite everything pointing towards Jose............

I'm not looking for arguments, I'm looking to clarify your opinion, just saying its bs is really generic, but it seems you dont have anything better to say.

That's more than reasonable. After all we payed £50 million for the biggest flop in football history and sacking managers is an expensive hobby.

That is anything but reasonable!

Mourinho is already leaving, but since we will probably sign him, Real wants to make us pay a stupid unnecessary fee. We should just tell them to keep José or pay him the contract sack fee, lets see what they respond and if they don't come crying for an agreement...

[Henrique 9,133]

Mourinho + Falcao + Alonso.

I think one more CB and a full back and 2 squad players will do the job. I really dont want Mourinho back, but I reckon he is the kid of guy who bring instant success.

It's a bargain. Why not just pay it? Look at what we paid for AVB - not to mention the 12 million we paid to sack him.

We didnt pay the 12 million to sack him,, what we did was pay his weekly wages until he found himself a new club, so we saved some money there (thank God).

But in any case why would we pay Real for JM? he's going to be fired anyways so teams will wait till that happens and then sign him.

Andre Villas-Boas has been paid a staggering £12million in compensation for being fired by Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich.

Let's just say we disagree on the rest :-)
