The Mourinho Thread

[bushman 2,043]

Never mind Jose. Rafa is manager of the month for April.

There you are boys, BBC sport football.

[Jase 43,479]

What?

He said all that stuff in the press conference and now he is not sure?

Men this is getting boring as the Neymar constant chat about moving.

Are you seriously gonna believe what he says there? He's just teasing as always. Take his comments with a pinch of salt.

Just wait till mid may and we'll see what happens then. Now the speculations and all that shit.. Makes you go mad.

Yep, in Spain everything will be finished by 17 @ May, but that's a Friday, I'm pretty sure the news will start to flow from Monday 20 @ May.

Yup. Expect the rumour mill to go on full blast mode after the CDR Final though the league will only finish on 1st June.

The summer here is pretty short, if we start playing end of August, so as soon CDR is done (17May), he will appear with Roman at SB.

Yeah I hate that teasing a la Neymar.

I got bored of all the Neymar teasing after he would not make up his mind.

Come summer if Mourinho still in Madrid, I will also feel the same.

Stop teasing me Mourinho!

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

[Sheva. 5,373]

It will be funny if he doesn't end up here after all the wankfest of the past few days. But i will feel sorry for the manager who takes over, because people will still be crying about Jose.

[karaclouds 47]

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!

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......

[AndersonBLUE 819]

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

[yuvala 2,167]

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.

[Ankit 3,176]

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.

The media has inflated this story to the point that if Jose eventually does not come, then I would be very disappointed.

you mean like winning the league from the best team in the world (not my words) with a record number of points...yeah nothing special at all

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