They can have van Gaal. I'd love Jose at Utd

Do bragging rights down the local mean that much to you?

Mourinho and Chelsea,  the perfect match. Would like to have enjoyed a few more MotD's before he departed

Damn. You mightn't, probably don't, like him but the Premier league is a much duller place without him.

Not this time. Most fans and media are bored with his schtick by now. Besides that, the Carneiro saga removed any last vestige of him being a loveable rogue, a scamp spectacularly good at mental warfare etc and confirmed him to be precisely what most thought him to be - a ****.

I'd disagree with that slightly, personally I've always found his behavior abhorrent but while he's winning the media especially will lap it up but in a season like this they'll turn on him pretty quick..

Maybe, but I think people just got bored of him this time.

Maureen signed a 52 m contract 4 months ago. Maybe he walks away with 20. He doesnt need the hassle of rebuilding Chelsea and getting rid of captain leader legend and co.The money in soccer is obscene. Spoilt arseholes all involved. Zero class. The worst of sport.

Main Street

Undoubtably a King Lear sized tragic figure, as the most transparent patholigical narcissist in the game, descended deeper into a state  of madness with each passing week, the genius of the man sadly betrayed by his own (not chelsea's) players who were even too dumb to follow his blueprints on how to beat relegation fodder teams.

I was kinda hoping he would linger on until PSG mercilessly kicked his football corpse into touch.

Mourinho has made a lot of enemies over the years.  He seemed to use this to develop a siege mentality and unite his own players - it's us against the world etc.  Now it seems with all his antics he's managed to alienate his own players.  Maybe his wife still loves him.

That's just, like your opinion man.

Line Ball

The problems all began with the Doctor - apparently if members of the playing squad and management had kept it in their pants, then things would have been better.  :o

The man is an idiot.

Too many mind games. When the going got tough turned on his players too.

All about me me me.

Supposed to have been 12 million per year of contract. He is up there with being as hard to like as ferguson.

Always remember about him the shit he stirred against barcelona and frisk who ended up quitting over it.

I think the older generation of managers had far more class. Maureen has something vile about him. His Real team reflected that.

imtommygunn

Fergie aside i'd agree. I was glad to see how real treated him. Really not a fan at all. Me me me.

Are you for real? Have you actually watched the stye of football his team's play,? The word dirge comes to mind.

I used to like him but he is a multi millionaire who looks like he licks pish off a nettle, the man is angry yet has the world by the balls, I have no gra for the man anymore.
Armagh, the one true love of a mans life.

I wonder if Chelski will try to get Pep. Or is he already promised to another woman? Very few galactico managers left now with credibility.

This is a brutal, relentlessly exhausting business. Most managers get 10 years at the very top. Mourinho has had 12. For a man who is essentially a self-made phenomenon, powered by brains and chutzpah, by always being the smartest and most provocative guy in the room, it has been a draining and indeed diminishing run of success
