Mourinho was dead to me the day he came back to Chelsea, sit in front of the press and said he's the HAPPY one. Fuck that, fucking imposter, I never knew any Mourinho that was happy.
And from that moment, everything just went downhill for him gradually.

I hope the management doesnt go full brehme and hire him, let the legend rest, don't ruin the memories :(

Wow. So many news today. It's really painful to see Jose in this state but this firing was a long time coming. Taking over Spurs was a desperate move that was always doomed to fail. This probably was his last chance at the top level. I can't see him getting a top job in club football anytime soon.

I love Jose. I will always be grateful for giving me the best moment of my life as an Interista with triplete. But i never want to see him back at Inter. I would like to have the final in Madrid as my last memory of Jose as an Inter coach and not a loss at Friuli or Bentegodi during yet another Inter winter crisis.

Hats off Jose

Congrats Jose!

Why? Because he made it.
I actually admire his selfish path designed by himself. I`m talking about the financial aspects, please read below.

romano - José Mourinho sacking is not linked to Super League... and he’s never refused to take training today. He’s been fired because of results and no nothing else.
Of course not! Jose would never do anything against his club, he is too smart to risk sanctions ;)

Yikes. Might be time to take a break for a bit for Jose.
What if I told you that was his plan all along?
Sign a big long contract and sit it out. Entirely. No need to "relaunch" career or find a NT. Just enjoy life while getting payed dozens of millions :datass:

Mourinho not only mastered role-playing the special coach, but he also hacked the football industry :lol:
Think about the obscene amounts he has been pocketing all these years + his sponsorship deals. :notbad:

Fun fact: the Portuguese still had a contract with Spurs until June 2023.

The English press made a "review" of the "unworked money" received by Jose Mourinho during his career, after he was fired.

In 2007, when he was sacked by Chelsea, Mourinho earned 18 million pounds (20.71 million euros).
In 2012, when he left Real Madrid, he took 17 million pounds (19.56 million euros).
In 2015, at the second parting with Chelsea, he received 12.5 million pounds (14.38 million euros).
In 2019, when he was fired from Manchester United, he was chosen with 15 million pounds (17.26 million euros).
In 2021 he would receive 30 million pounds from Tottenham (the equivalent of 34.62 million euros).

> No need to feel sorry IMO :cool:

At least he's robbing the 'haves' rather than the 'have nots'. Well fucking done. But if you want to be a football coach again, try going to an actual football league for a change.

Hypocritical point of view, Dario. If someone did this with Inter everyone on here would be livid and rightfully so. For example Mancini begged to be sacked. Spaletti purposefully doesn't take a new job only to take his due from Inter.

I'm not saying they aren't entitled to the money, but it's just disgraceful to glorify them in that way.

I wonder what would've happened to him if Real Madrid players didn't turn on him. His second season at Real is probably the best football any of his teams ever played, and yet, he lost all of that after that season. No team wants to put the work in, because he lost a lot of respect from football players after that fiasco... and he looked bitter ever since.

He's cooked. There's no other job available for him. He's either going to become a TV pundit or take a national team job.

I don't know, that was only Porto to an extent, every other club spent hefty sums to bring players for him. Also the expectations for success is always hauting him.

Being Portugal's NT manager is probably the best bet for him right now.

I would love to see him working at Setubal just for the nostalgic feeling.

I think/I'm afraid his man-management isn't for this era of players anymore. He could do that at Porto, Chelsea and Inter, at Real it already became a problem and from the reports when he was coaching Man Utd and Spurs after that it was clear he lost the feeling with the ''modern day footballers''.

Sad to see such a great coach getting sacked left and right.

Coaches get stale, even the top ones have a shelf life at the very top. A few manage to reinvent themselves and keep up with the times. Like Mancini has done recently. So maybe Mou can take a break and reflect. But its rare, like an old dog learning new tricks. Most likely this is the end of Mourinho at the top, he will gradually keep going downhill like Ancelotti.

Grazie Mourinho for the wonderful memories. You will always be welcomed as a hero at the San Siro.

Is Ancelotti going downhill or is Ancelotti just taking smaller clubs nowadays? Remember, Ancelotti is the one that brought Real that coveted CL trophy before Zidane came..

He was bored and decided to take a challenge. Unlike Mourinho, he doesn't have this persona that demands immediate success.

Both would be the top coaches in Serie A if they were here.

We saw that at Napoli ... Ancelotti is one of the best paid coaches in the world at Everton and it seems that's all he cares anymore. Mediocre results at a mediocre club. I mean ... There must be a reason Bayern players AND Napoli players complained about half-hearted training sessions.

Can you blame them, really?

The players barely care anymore, they start to hate on coaches who want to do their job properly, and then they get sacked.

Can you blame them for following what the shitheaded players do, to just follow the money and shut up? Heck, that's what everyone's gonna do with this ESL bullshit.

Now that i think of, it's bizarre he was only 2 years here.

Now already has tons of money, should go to Valencia or similar, and create something with minimum budget.
