The Mourinho Thread

[Mufassir08 2,400]

Do you think Mourinho might make changes to our Three Amigos? I hope not, and I feel as though they are finally providing the type of play that Roman has wanted all this time.

If he signs Di maria or sanchez then most likely oscar will be benched.Big if though.

Would just allow us to rotate them more, Oscar and Mata have played too many games this season and the replacements (Moses, Marin) aren't good enough . He plays Ronaldo, Ozil and Di Maria at real; Hazard, Mata and Oscar seem better defensively then those three together.

He might get in more players like them to rest everyone, I really think Isco will come to Chelsea soon enough

As much as I rate Isco, I seriously hope not. De Bruyne is pretty much equal to Isco so why spend 30 million on the Spaniard when we already have KdB in our ranks and recalling him wouldn't cost a dime? If there's still room in the squad after KdB has been recalled, I would much rather get a proper winger in the Di Maria / Sanchez / Schürrle mould than yet another playmaker like Isco.

Mata / Hazard / Oscar / De Bruyne / New signing / Moses sounds about right for the three AM positions in our formation. That way everyone would get plenty of playing time but no one would be overplayed like Mata, Oscar and Hazard have been this season. With the Confederations Cup again messing up Mata and Oscar's summer holiday, we simply need to have way more depth for these positions than we have had this season or otherwise our season is going to be over by October. It's a miracle that Mata and Oscar haven't been injured more with the amount of games they've been forced to play this past year and we can't rely on them to play that much next season so getting more depth for these positions has to be a top priority over the summer.

I completely forgot about De Bruyne haha, I really want either Sanchez or Di Maria then, Isco is a great player though.

If we get in a proper winger then I see Oscar's future at the pivot.

This Mourinho thing is a bit reminiscent of Keegan returning to Newcastle or "King Kenny" to Liverpool. Is it ever as good the second time around?

With due respect to Keegan and King Kenny, they weren't half as good mangers as Jose is!!

Jupp Heynckes seems to be doing well enough in his 3rd stint at Bayern.

That's a very good point. We've all been just assuming that Jose will come here and work wonders.

Exactly. Yes there's a sentimentality associated with Jose coming back, but he's also a world-class coach who could walk into most jobs. He left and went on to the greatest of successes.

Dalglish did well at Blackburn, but comparing him to Keegan is laughable. Mourinho ain't a cheerleader lacking bottle.

Totally agree, they're not. They also weren't as good as their previous legacies either.

Yes, he is. And I hope that this is our experience if Mourinho comes back. I want to see hom manage us to 25 trophies over the next 15 seasons. Fantastic. Best case scenario.

Part of the reason we've gone through so many managers is that no one has been able to fill the Mourinho sized shoes in the dressing room. What if Mourinho can't even fit them? Where do we go from there?

Don't want Mourinho to come back. It is evident club suffered badly after he left and now that we somehow broken the shackles of player power and so called Mourinho era, we really don't want to tread on that path again .We might get some short term success again but our future will still remain bleak.And the blessing hand of Roman is not going to stay on our heads forever.

what??? then who do u think fits us for the next season... jose has already shown that if there is a coach for chelsea it is him... btw the player power u r talking about, what is bad about it? we won PLs, FA cups and most importantly we won CL due to the mighty presence of the brotherhood of DD, JT, LAMPS, CECH...

I don't know what to think about it.

Like some members, I fear the Jorge Mendes connection. I hope we don't tranfer too much players that have Jorge Mendes as an agent.

He's not even an agent in some cases, he virtually owns some of the players. Atletico are not seeing any of that Falcao money for instance it's going straight to GestiFute.

And this is the sort of nonsense that is going to come with Mourinho.
