Once again we are experiencing the flirtation of Jose Mourinho. The man has got charisma right down! I think the media are going to enjoy this circus ride until June when we know exactly what is happening!

Mourinho never changes, today he tried to prove he did something special with Real Madrid during these 3 years.

tbf, it will be a welcome change from the "Yes" men running the club. Looking at the high-profile incidents over the season, Mourinho would have been all over Clattenburg in the aftermath of the Chelsea-ManU game. He would've questioned why the ball-boy was sleeping on the ball in the Hazard -ball-boy-gate. He would've questioned how did the ball come out of the other side, if the boy was kicked? I was really pissed that Rafa and the club did not try and defend Hazard when he did not even kick the ball boy and the media shitstorm painted Hazard as the bad guy

Jose will use the press/media to his advantage to hide his players' bad performances. That "devil-may-care" attitude was not there in any manager we had after Jose and I hope the Spanish media has not softened him

Good points the second article brings.

I am most worried about the team. With Mourinho we had a strong physical side, which in turn it became a very efficient machine.

But today's Chelsea is different. A smaller team, not as strong or aggressive. But a team build more into an attacking side.

Ironically this side will fit better AVB then Mourinho.

While I would want Mourinho back like most Chelsea fan, this issue can't help me stop thinking that Mourinho might not be as good this second time around......

Of course, everyone excited about the prospect of him returning, now a couple articles out saying he's not the best choice. There will always be naysayers on any potential signing.

Personally, I would love to see the likes of Mata, Hazard and Oscar managed by Mourinho

do I really need to answer that

Hmm yea you do..

Why would Lopez want to play (or should I say not play) as a number two?

Every club in the world would like to have him, and many of them would have him as the first keeper.

The record league title is mine, you (journalists) will want to erase it but you won’t be able to. We won the Copa del Rey for the first time in 20 years and you won’t be able to erase that either.

The three Champions League semi-finals, which personally speaking do not leave me satisfied, can’t have been easy to achieve because with 18 coaches in 21 years (Real) only got to five semis.

That’s the poor record of Mourinho: three years and three semi-finals. For me it is a source of pride to have been the Real Madrid coach that ended Barcelona’s hegemony in Spain.

I answered that a few pages back. Never said he was to come in as back up!

I would not be surprised if no agreement has actually been made, and Jose is trying to use the media to put massive pressure on the board to hire him other wise he may not have a job for the next season. It helps that many here and in the media still follow his every word trying to give a concrete meaning to it and still be unaware that he might be pulling their leg a bit.

Transfer news: Jose Mourinho to meet Chelsea FC officials next week



Just posting a link - no idea whether it is reliable or not :-)



According to a respected football agent, Jose Mourinho’s agents are set to meet Chelsea FC officials next week in London. The source says that no terms have been agreed between CFC and Mourinho yet. But the information is that Mourinho has requested that Chelsea FC remove certain members of their non-playing staff (coaches and backroom staff).



Removal of backroom staff is routine when a new manager comes in, as he will be bringing in his own backroom staff and coaches. Perhaps this is a sign that Mourinho is serious about moving back to Chelsea FC.



The news comes as a follow-up to comments made by Mourinho in the aftermath of the Champions League semifinal 2nd leg against Dortmund. Mourinho dropped clear hints that he wanted to leave Madrid, and with this latest information, it seems Chelsea is his preferred destination.

That is so like Benitez and his rant on Fergie.
