Everytime I watch video of the treble with this god of a man I shed a tear.

FIFA as a corrupt organisation? Nothing new unfortunately. Search for Andrew Jennings on google and find some of his articles and documentaries about the subject.

Watching his ITV documentary for the first time. Absolutely brilliant.

Jose: I think it's time to stop criticize Bolton for playing direct football.

Reporter: Why?

Jose: Because Liverpool play more direct than Bolton.


:lol: Brilliant.

JM: "Let's see what happens. Following England, Portugal, Italy and Spain is not easy to choose a new destination. could also be a place already seen. maybe something is about to happen and nobody imagines it."

I wouldn't imagine him back in Inter next season. Maybe he'll do that then? :troll:

Mourinho has stated many times he spent the best years of his career in Italy. I think that if we get UCL and Mourinho accepts the fact that we are starting a new project (and is willing to guide the new project) but also recognises that his name would attract investors and a new stadium (http://fedenerazzurra.com/2013/03/22/cds-mourinho-could-attract-investors-to-build-new-stadium/) and sees this an opportunity to bring Inter back to it's heights with his help, then it could be a possibility.

What he said about returning to an old club did shock me, however. Someone like him wants to be successful in every place and every country so after Portugal, England, Italy and Spain, I'm sure he'd want to go and do something with PSG in France and maybe even one day in Germany with Bayern Munich before he returns.

Out of the best 4 leagues in Europe he's got a couple of options and a couple of dead ends.

Spain - he's already coaching Real and there's a pretty good chance he leaves, he's doing what he can and there's also a pretty good chance that he wins the CL for 3rd time with Real and we all know what would be his next step after that - to leave when he's on top.

England - Chelsea is the only option, Rafa is surely going out and they have great material and money to spend. He always said he'd love to raise his children in England, etc. I don't know what are his relations to Abramovich tho. If he wants to coach ManU in the near future he wouldn't go to City.

Italy - We're in deep shit and I don't see him as a manager that's the best option for building things from scratch. We don't have the foundation work like we had Mancini's when he took over the reigns. We don't have money but still his love for the team is always a promise he could come back. I don't want to consider all the pros and cons of him coming back.

Germany - I don't see him coach Borussia, they're the homegrown type of team and there are a lot of quality German coaches right now that are options for them. Bayern would stick with Pep for a couple of years, that's for sure.

There are two other options in front of him. PSG and Portugal NT. I don't see how PSG would lure him, the French league would be a downgrade for him, although he'd have the spending power to build a team of his liking. Still I don't think that's a viable option.
Portugal NT on the other side, with the coming WC next year is a pretty logical next step, a change of air form club football and an interesting challenge. I don't know what's the situation with Bento but I guess everyone would choose Jose in a heartbeat. He already coaches half of the team.

So maybe not next year but It's either Portugal NT, us or Chelsea in that order.

He can go to ManC because after AF will retire, Pep will replace him, that is also why Pep didn't go to Chelsea or City.

or maybe pep didnt want to go to chelsea or city because they're badly owned clubs, and at bayern he will have more time to implement what he wants, the footballing style is closer to what he already likes, and there's a huge and financially LEGAL budget for him to invest in new players if he wants?

Bayern's the perfect choice. Theres no "political" reason he DIDNT go to Chelsea or City - just that they are inferior offers to Bayern...

I also imagine relations arent great between him and Ibra after how they left last time, and how will PSG feel if Mourinho says he wants to ship out - hypothetically - Pastore, Ibrahimovic, Lavezzi?

Lavezzi doesnt seem to me to be a Mourinho WF, Ibrahimovic isn't a Mourinho lone striker, Pastore could work but I dont think he's ideal in that role which Mourinho would want him under.

PSG and Mourinho is a bad match - he'd want to change the squad too much and there are too many egos at PSG to allow that to happen.

Guess it's just Inter and Chelsea then. I also don't think Portugal NT is an option in the near future as Mourinho said himself:

Mourinho said:
"I would love to win something as coach of the Portuguese national team. But it would not be easy, because few Portugese players play in our league."

Of course Chelsea would provide him with the money he wants but I don't think he left off on good terms with Abramovich. I also think our project would attract him and he's always said he was happiest in Italy. Geez, he's got a lot of decision making to do...

- - - Updated - - -

Mourinho would also make the club much more attractive to investors and would make the stadium a much easier task to achieve.

Well, I think an english club would be attractive. City, Chelsea, maybe even Arsenal? Given their money, and you could argue the leg work wenger has put in is similar to what mancini did at inter (sort of)

City is a badly owned club? they gace Mancini every player he wanted and even when he failed they still supported him. With one of the greatest squads in the world he totally failed in the CL and that year he's in 4th place, and still he is City coach. you say badly owned, I say paradise for coachs.

and no, The geart one won't return.
