It would've been the worst possible time to leave for RM last summer as we can now see looking at them. Best player left, most of their best players aging, etc. They're a huge mess. 

Think those two will be battling it out for him in the summer.

Yeah...so why would he go to United then? They are in a very similar mess.

Redknapp with Noel Edmonds as his assistant?

Mourinho fans that were here (they have moved to United now lol) kept pissing me off with some of the worst pathetic excuses.

i was one of them, short memory? ive moved on from Mourinho, no manager or player is bigger than the club, things didnt end smoothly for him on his 2nd stint with us, altough i will always be grateful for what he did for Chelsea 1st time around, putting the club on the map in UK and Europe, we were respected by all opposition, we were a force to be reckoned with, no one bullied us around at will, we put fear in opposition defenses and also offences with our rock solid defense and deadly attack, the foundations were set for years back then, we became more relevant in Champions League, always reaching the latter stages of the competition year after year. He will always be a legend here no matter what and thats a fact, things are not going his way atm, he's become too bitter and self centered nowadays, creating problems with players and media, this is not the man we all once loved at the Bridge (running celebrations, defending us in face of the media, fighting for us, making players bleed for him on the pitch, etc) that is a fact. I dont wish him any harm and i hope he finds himself again, on greener pastures, maybe its time to call it quits on UK and try another country, i wish him luck despite everything, im not going to throw under the carpet everything he achieved at Chelsea, im not that shallow and fickle. Cheers

The clubs a joke, Blaming manger is all very well but the players and agents have them over a barrel 

Bit of a correlation between the downward performance and the Glazers milking millions out of the club as well

Definitely. They go on about Mourinho having digs at players-with the dour Scot you got balled out publicly, once, (hairdryer) and if you gave lip back (Jaap Stam. Beckham) you were out the fucking door

Pogba, Rashford, Martial, Shaw, Lukaku etc. Let's be honest, that's a young core that any manager would like. Knows the PL like the back of his hand and United will be desperate to spend their way back to the top. Will be something completely new to Poch to be at a club who will back him.

Let's not act like it isn't a desirable job. And certainly a big step up from Spuds.

Mou has to go to a Inter / Milan type of club and take them to another level, just to prove that he's still got it and to mantain his legacy.

At this point, he risks to go down in history as a clown, not as a great manager. 

[Fernando 6,585]

Maybe Mourinho go to PSG? 

But I definitely agree that he should go back to Inter. Needs to recover and that is the best place to be at.

Could say the same about Madrid too. Arguably the biggest club in the world, European champions, still have a team with good players and an owner who isn't afraid to spend big as well.

If Inter are willing to spend money, then it might be a destination for him. Overshadowed by Juventus, struggling to get back to the top level, last won a trophy in 2011. All set up nicely for Mourinho and his underdog/us against the world mentality.

Wouldn't be surprised if bridges are mended and he goes to Real Madrid

United fans must be feeling what I'd felt when Mourinho left us. I was absolutely buzzing. It was like a very heavy rucksack has been removed from my back and I am free.

I remember before Jose's sacking, I was angry at Chelsea every day, and Mourinho fans that were here (they have moved to United now lol) kept pissing me off with some of the worst pathetic excuses.

Now. Let's hope they appoint Antonio Conte. PLEASE.

Conte would actually be the perfect candidate for the position United are currently in.

[Unionjack 7,531]

I really dont know where there is for Mou to go. He needs to be somewhere the team has no problems of winning owt and players that will worship him cause we know if their face doesn't fit they have no chance.

What I'm worried about is who takes over? They will of course get a nice kitty to play with - Which Conte would appreciate. And tho ZZ has never had to rebuild he worries me.

The thing that interests me is who Perez will sign come the summer? If the reports that came out at the start of the season are right Poch accepted the job but somehow Levy stood in the way. I hope he manages to make it this time. Take the King Edward potato head Kane with him. Weaken Spuds up no end.

At ours he had the unswerving support of JT, Lampard - players that would walk through walls for him

I don’t think many modern footballers want to work with a manager like him anymore. He is so intense that after a while players start to lose focus and stop buying into his style - they scuttle off into corners whispering, and the rot sets in.

mate in all honesty players nowadays have turned into pussies, cry babies, too soft, theatrical, everything is handed to them on a silver platter, very social media orientated, selfies, hair styles, etc 

no more men on the pitch like before, and so on, im talking about players who bled for their teams and worked their asses off. Most players nowadays are too laid back and lazy.

Player power rules, end of.
