The Mourinho Thread

Seeing as Watford failed to gain qualification to the Premier League, Zola could may be our assist manager next season. I imagine Jose was mainly watching Chalobah, perhaps with a look at Vydra. There was a couple of his staff with him too, including Rui and Louro.

Would Zola really want to be an assistant for Chelsea? He was so close to getting Watford promoted and surely there must be some other premier league clubs calling for him as a manager.

Di Matteo got West Brom promoted and he joined Chelsea as an assistant. Sure, he got sacked from that same West Brom team a while later but Zola has also tried managing in the PL at West Ham and got the sack as well. Maybe a couple of years under Mourinho at the club he loves would do his managerial career good, it's not like he doesn't have the time or anything.

Personally I don't believe he would join as an assistant tbh, but stranger things have happened.

Feel like it's a bit of a different situation though, as you said yourself RDM was fired and was then even snubbed by Birmingham. Zola on the other hand is a pretty damn hot name right now.

But yeah, much stranger things have happened and it would be silly to say it 100% wouldn't, I have followed football enough to know not to say that. :P

I before E, except after C :D

Wasn't there talk of Luiz being seen as the next captain? Now all of a sudden Mourinho is okay with selling him. The press don't know shit about this one.

Yeah even JT stated Luiz is captain material elect, perhaps the press are currently bored shitless or it's the work of some agent doing their best to put the feelers out to test the clubs resolve? Even if it is 35m, how do we replace a player of his ability that is so versatile you could play him anywhere and he would still perform admirably? Totally different player to the JT's and Vidic's of this world, prob wont ever be the defenders they were but he has more in his locker thats for sure - wouldn't surprise me in the slightest to see Jose elevate Luiz to captain next season when JT and lamps are unavailable and to keep him in midfield.

Thanks for the heads up on the spelling - nicely put! Infact and I cant remember their names but I was so impressed with Juve's defence I would be happy for us to sign a couple of their players - strength in depth, build from the back and all that.......

Even if it is 35m, how do we relace a player of his ability that is so versatile you could play him anywhere and he would still perform admirably.

I think Chellini is their best CB.

One of the best IMO.
