The Mourinho Thread

[didierforever 7,349]

No, I'm allowed to have these opinions, and i will say them. Must be feeling angry that apparent forum sweethearts like Kojo get banned due to their own stupidity yet I stay. Hurts you people doesn't it .

just edited it. read it again...

Mourinho the great hope ! I expect him to demote Lampard and Mikel by the first game. Otherwise that's a rocky start in my opinion.

I don't find his time at Real Madrid a failure at all. Look how was the league before he came, there wasn't any competition, it was all Barca. When he came Real Madrid was in a really bad moment and they started to compete against Barca, one of the greatest teams of all times in one of the most unbalanced leagues in the world.

In 10-15 years time, History will remember that he managed to accomplish in a weak league with only two competitive sides in it; while inheriting the most expensive squad in the world and putting even more money to make the most expensive squad in the world by ten-fold; just one La Liga and One Copa Del Ray.

When he rejoins us. He has to win the league next season, I won't except anything lower then that. Since he will again inherit an expensive squad and (if Rafa is right) have at least £100 million to spend with.

I lose a few brain cells every time I read one of your posts. History will remember him solely for a three year stint at Madrid, which was not even completely unsuccessful ? The money matter is irrelevant in this case since Barcelona still has the better squad. No amount of money can overcome Messi over 38 games. He did make them very competitive though. Barcelona would bukkake on them before but now Madrid is winning the Classicos.

Listen what you say doesn't matter. History won't remember any of what you just said. History will remember Jose Mourinho as the best Manager of his genaration and one of the best of all time. Depending on how his time pans out here, which I suspect will be a period of fairly long success, he could kick on to become THE best of all time.

What good is money when you can't buy the best in the world. It doesn't matter how much you spend you still don't have him. Messi over the course of the season proves again and again why he is the best in the world and the barca team is set up to help him specially. Yes Madrid spent a lot of money. And even so, he didn't do as badly as some people think.

Chelsea confirm that a deal for Jose Mourinho to return to Chelsea is being finalized. - Sky Sports

Fake sky sports again?

[Rubber bullets 1,183]

blah blah blah blah... shut up dude...

he has won 2ucls, he has won domestic titles in 4 different countries. he already has shown that he is the BEST MANAGER IN THE WORLD.

real madrid was a shambles. NO WAIT. only the last year (2012-13) was bad. one bad year cant take away everything he has done and acheived. moreover he is coming here wounded, hungrier than ever for success. it suits us perfectly. so stop whining like a child about this 1 bad year and for god's sake look at the bigger picture.

The best short term manager, but have you ever considered that it might not the same success story that he had with us last time. People have just assumed that he will be here for the long term and that it will be nothing but roses and honey for us. The league is much more competitive then it was when he first came here. And not to mention in Europe the likes of Munich have become near invincible super powers, And wee have just seen with his tenure at Madrid that he can fail (and I'm sorry, but just one La Liga title and Copa Del Ray is no where near enough considering the squad he inherited and the money he spent to add to it). And I can't not ignore his negatives (and there are massive negatives with him) because they can cause some of the most cringeworthy stuff possible in football. Yet the most frustrating aspect is that some fans have decided that we are nothing without Jose and that he is the club himself, which is ridiculous.

But we are not talking about his overall time as a manager, we are talking about his time at Madrid, nice attempts at strawman arguments.

[Special Juan 27,552]

I just think the press and people at Madrid frowned upon most things he said and where as in England people and the press just laughed at what he says/said. Different countries and all that and different outlooks, he just suits everything Chelsea IMO.

God I love him so much.

The league is just between Barca and Madrid, and yet everyone has been saying that for the last two seasons Barca have been weakened. So how comes Madrid did not capitalize on this despite that idea? So yes it should be considered a failure because he should have done so much more with the money he spent.

He leaves Madrid with the highest win percentage of any manager who took charge of more than 100 games. He won La Liga against a pretty decent Barca team.

[Rmpr 8,977]

They've reached an agreement. Everything's done. He will be our next manager. Everyone and his dog has known that for the last month or so.

The club will announce it in the proper manner, not because they're shit or inept but because they're professionals who do things like this the right way. They aren't children wanting to open their presents on Christmas Eve because this is a multi-million pound contract that affects a BUSINESS which employs hundreds of people.

Dude, calm down, nobody said otherwise! But I agree...

I hope it is not 10mi pounds a season though, I think Jose would accept something less than that!

We're pretty good with negotiations - I imagine a lot of bonuses will be built into the contract.

And like I said, a Barca team that was weakened that season, and was even more weaker this season, yet he and Madrid went over the edge in spectacular fashion despite spending massive amounts of money every season- that's a failure in my eyes.

When he comes here, he has to win the League every season in my eyes, and at least one champions league (if he stays for what expect 3 years) considering the money he will be allowed to spend wit our already expensive squad. Anything below that s underachieving.
