The Mourinho Thread

[Term-X 7,891]

It was "Fly Emirates" not "Samsung Mobile" back in 2004.

The people at Samsung, Mourinho and club officials posed (a few times, for PR) with the 2004/05 shirt but with Samsung instead of Fly Emirates.

Mourinho said that players like Lampard, and Terry are the soul of the club.

Great point.

But I wonder, with Lampard getting to the end of his career, will he want to keep Lampard as an assistant?

Lampard is one smart guy, and if coach correctly by Mourinho be can become a top coach.

Who knows, he can even take over after Mourinho.

But Lampard always made me think that he can have a life after the game in a managerial role.

Heck Brendan, AVB, and Clark have not done that bad after learning a thing or two from Mourinho.

Yeah but the crest in that photoshopped pic is the old one.

Thats Nice. Getting a Lampard 8 one though... Hmmm. I could get 2 lol.

Okay before you own me for a 3rd time, here it is:

I just felt that it was photoshopped, that's all.

A random question, can Mou speak French? It would be a huge bonus for all our Belgium players I think. At the moment only Ba is native French speaker besides all the Belgiums.

He is really good in french, in fact he spoke in french with Drogba. He told him "toi je te veux dans mon équipe (i want you in my team)" when he played for Marseille. He is really fluent in french.

He is better in french than in english tbh

I'm so happy Mourinho is back. I have two passions in London now. Chelsea and Mourinho. He's trained my three teams in Europe but I always felt he belonged to London.

So I'm a happy cookie!

[Changingman_2000 876]

Delighted he's back. May be, on occasions, a somewhat flawed character but I love him nonetheless. He is so suited to our club. If only he had been in charge during the Dixon/Speedie/Nevin era

[Barbara 15,149]

I don't care about his personality - although I don't mind it as much as other people do. What others call arrogant, I call confident

But I'm not here to like his personality, I'm here to like his work and he's one of the best managers in the world. I love his style and he's what we needed. So that's why I'm happy, but I agree, he's not the most likeable guy around. Mou is an acquired taste

Reading all these idiotic transfers rumours going on about right now, Mourinho's press conference next Monday can't come soon enough. Need to squash them completely!

[mediator 2,026]

He must make clear all things on Monday.

Agree with you, our loanies would want to know what's their future for next season. I know there will be the preseason and so on

He sort of already said something that reassured me enough in the interview.

He's not going to aim a lot of new players, will focus on developing the ones we already have - which is a good thing.

I'm sure he'll bring a new CB, DM and at least two more FW. But I don't expect him to ask too many players. We don't need too many players at this point. we have deficiencies in center defense and in the attack imo, if we sign a couple of good guys on each, we're good.

Yes, he has said that but it will be nice if he does that right in front of the media. Still so much rubbish being reported despite his interview yesterday.

[Barbara 15,149]

Yeah, like Marca saying that he'll offload Mata and Torres *rolls eyes* just because he didn't mention Mata yesterday when he said about new talents and mentioned Oscar, Eden and Luiz.

Marca are some bitter bitches. I'm so happy (despite being a Madrid fan myself) that Mou isn't in bloody Spain anymore.

Why are you complaining?

The rumours are excellent for the non-disclosure of our businesses!

Except most rumors are about the likes of Mata, Luiz and KDB leaving, so yeah, not the good kind.
