The Mourinho Thread

No chance he goes to PSG. I think this is Mendes and José getting highly annoyed that both City and Chelsea have announced their next manager already and United have been silent. 

He admitted that he was bored as hell in Spain because of the quality of the other teams outside the top 3. There's no way he'd go to an even more uncompetitive league where he'd walk to the title by 40 points. He'll then feel like he's wasted an entire year of his life if he doesn't win the CL.

If United does not offer him the job there is every chance of him going to PSG

Okay, I'll rephrase what I said. If he has no other options he'll go to PSG.

What options does he realistically have though that fit his criteria? Every other league but England is pretty much monopolized and would bore him. A return to Italy? He has good relationship with Moratti, why not. It would be a challenge to compete with Juventus, Roma and Napoli and make Inter relevant again.

Manchester United - In doubt, there are talks of LVG continuing until the end of his contract and in addition there have been reports that the higher ups aren't fans of Jose's methods. Moratti's sister seemingly already said he's going to United, maybe prematurely?

Manchester City - Pep. Not happening.

Real Madrid - No. Admitted Spain was boring and no way would they humiliate Zidane this way, he's been doing well. He wasn't happy or loved there, doubt he would want to return either way.

Barcelona - Hell no. Both parties would need to swallow a lot of pride to work together, don't see it happening. Completely opposite footballing philosophies make it an unlikely pairing, Barca won't crap on Cruyff's legacy like that.

Bayern - Already appointed a new manager. Not a competitive league.

PSG - Possible, but Jose has criticized the league before. However, he might not have many options.

Arsenal - Would require a shock Wenger exit in the summer. Possible, but not likely. If I was Arsenal, I would do it in a heartbeat though, Wenger is outdated.

Inter - Mancini isn't doing a good job, so it is another possibility. Jose loves the club and holds them in high regard, return wouldn't be surprising.

 

What else is there left? It seems that it's gonna be one of Man United, PSG or Inter. Anything else would be a surprise. No doubt United is his nr. 1 preference, he's probably waiting until he gets something concrete from them, then will look elsewhere.

Hahah now closer to PSG after talking a lot of trash about French league and that dig at Guardiola in which he said that "some choose clubs in certain countries where even the kit man could win the league as a coach". Haha 

If this is not another PR stunt by Jorge Mendes to speed up the negociations with Man United and he indeed ends up in Paris instead of United, then it'll be because United did not want him and not the other way around. If someone else thinks he's rejected United for Paris than he is as deluded as Mourinho.

He desperately wants to go to a club with huge history, prestige, and are globally iconic. It's always been romantic to him. He has the largest ego known to man and wants what Fergie had. To go down as a legend for the biggest club there is and be known as someone who put their stamp and left a legacy.

They're the only club left that he can go to that can satisfy his ego. PSG can't offer him any of what he apparently seeks. They're a nothing club and are basically irrelevant outside of Europe.

To be honest, I bet if Fergie phoned him straight away after retiring and asked Josè to be his direct successor he'd have jumped at the chance and never have come back here. He's always had a hard-on for that club and it's his only possible destination.

The cringey, over the top love in this summer and beyond will be unbearable. All of that shit he talked about being "one of us," and how he loved Chelsea and us supporters will be trampled on when he's talking about how he loves Man United and how he's always wanted to be there and blah, blah, blah.

What will be even more infuriating is if he does the things there he always said he'd do here but never did. Play youth, rotate the squad, play attacking football, etc. Also watch him turn into an absolute Saint on the touchline and in press conferences now because he'll want to appear professional and respectful of Manchester United, the darling of the football world.

Makes me ill just thinking of it all. My favorite manager and football personality ever going to a club I despise. Fuck off.

Jose speaks French so it wouldn't be a problem going there straight away. Also somehow methinks that his dig towards PSG, especially that last season when he said that Chelsea have harder training sessions than their last match, was a wind-up.

IMO it's plausible. More than that when you think that he was really pissed off by the lack of quality signings last summer ...

That'd make us the mugs for packing him off then

 

and also it'd make people like you wake up and realise the doctrine of the board pulls the strings rather than the coach

When did he say that?
