Do you have a link to these reports about Emenalo ?

Reported in a paper called The Times, I can link it but you can't read it as its behind a pay wall unfortunately.

But it what makes his job at BVB more remarkable. He does not get even a 1/4 of the spending power Jose will have at Chelsea and every season he has to sell at least 1 of his star player. Yet he still makes them competitive and gets them to a Champions league final. Imagine what he could do with much bigger spending power? Jose has to rely on a short term plan of big spending then hope motivation is what gets the glory. Once that runs out he leaves the club and sometimes the club goes down the pits (just look at Inter Milan, or heck even for a couple of seasons after he leaves).

Porto...

The timing of the deal sounds about right but I seriously doubt it would reach WHS' source. I'd love to see the post, will try to look for it once search is renabled.

28th February 2013. I can guarantee you it was decided then. As I said at the time it came from someone whose very close to Roman.

Loads of clubs wanted him. I am sure any other club in the prem would have him with open arms. Jose was probably first choice and rightly so. Klopp was probably never in the picture because it wasn't ever gonna happen in the first place.

I don't see why there is even slight concern. There is no one better we could have for the job, and we got our man. He is great tactically. The players will love him, the fans will love him. Great for all parties.

But what about the top clubs, I think with the exception of PSG, no other club wanted to inquire about him even though it was clear that he was wanting to leave, especially after some of his embarrassing behavior

And again, I'm going to happen when he will eventually leaves, because he has a habit of leaving a club in complete a mess with a dressing room often unmanageable due to the huge egos he creates. Us and Inter Milan especially are prime examples. I really don't want that even if he gives us a couple of trophies in his probably short second reign here.

It was quite obvious he only wished to come to us. Therefore no one else was interested. But carry on trolling.

Porto...

Chelsea, Milan, Madrid. 3-1 unfortuantly.
