Default Mourinho No Mo

Kinda suprised not to see this here yet. The great Jose-Era is over at Chelsea. Cheers to that. Though I will miss his press conferences I will not miss his success.

Its unsurprising considering the moodiness of Abramovich and his personality conflicts with Mourinho. The only part that's really surprising is the timing. Though not surprising that the former Israeli coach is in already, sounds like Roman had that planned for a while.

Could be dark days for the blues ahead.

Totally unsurprising to me except, as Thunderball says, the timing. The self-proclaimed "special one" was irritating in so many ways. His feud with Benitez was hilarious though. They used to be friends until Liverpool started beating them in the Champions League.

I still see Chelsea being a threat though. There's still a lot of money there, for now at least.

I would not mind seeing Abramovich getting bored and pulling out his billions from the club. Between them and Man U im not sure which club i hate more.

Too bad. I liked Mourinho. Always was interesting.

This team had underperformed last season, and this season. With all that talent on that team, and they have only scored 6 goals in 7 games, that is truely sad.

Even if he wanted a HUGE challenge... Canada Soccer couldn't afford his expenses for the month, let alone the wage he'd command.

He would probably refuse on the grounds that we actually call it Soccer out here rather than Football alone, let alone the suck factor of the team, the disorganization of the system and disinterest of the populace.
