Jose Mourinho

I honestly like him. He's just mental enough to stay out of the asylum. Makes things interesting.
Don't be surprised if he makes a startling comeback one day. Not necessarily in Turkey, but in one of the major leagues, leading a club to CL glory.
He's no fool, that's for sure.
He'd start a row in an empty phone box! I can only guess what he'll do at the first Fenerbahce/ Galatasaray clash; memories of Souness planting his team's flag on the centre spot at their rival's ground!
 
I don't dislike him as much as I used to, but I would not want him anywhere near City. Besides, as others have pointed out, he is yesterday's man. His methods are out of date and he's burned so many bridges it's hard to see where he'll next turn up after he leaves this -surely his last- foray into management.

Its really hard to say if he's outdated, maybe he is, but a lot comes down to the job you get and I'm not sure many sensible big clubs would get have him just because it often turns sour.

But if you look at it another way, he's still done well...

He went back to Chelsea and won the league. He went to spurs, got them to a final but they were never really going to challenge for a title at that time. Before that he finished second with a pretty shite rag team and won them a couple of trophies, not finishing 8th like Tent Peg. Won Roma a European trophy, got them to another European final but were never really going to be real Serie A contenders with the players he had.

I think he's done pretty well all things considered. If some real contenders were mad enough to give him a job knowing it'll crash spectacularly at some point, he could still win things in my opinion.

Do you think Ancelotti, for example, would win Serie A with that Roma team? Or the Premier League with that Spurs or Rag team? ...its highly unlikely. Do I think Mourinho could win La Liga with this Real Madrid team ? Highly likely.

That's why I don't write off his ability to win things, i just don't see any of the huge teams being willing to employ him because they know that it'll turn sour at some point.
 
Dinosaur.

Here is what will happen in Turkey.

He'll be great for 6 months, then he'll slag a couple of players off in public and things will slowly start going down hill.

Then about 12 months in he'll start looking dishevelled and desperate, probably tell the media how many trophies he has won, tells everyone to respect him.
Then the 2nd season starts, Fenerbache will play like a blind farmers 11 and Jose will engineer and fix it just enough to get the sack and another bumper pay off.
He has rinsed and repeated this for maybe 10 years now, why the fuck chairmen employ this idiot baffles me.
 
He can't get a big job in Europe which says it all about Maureen and his style of play.

His style of football is outdated, Nobody wants to watch the crap anymore. He won't last the season in Turkey.
 
Seems a bit harsh to sack their boss for him, 99 points and 1 loss in 38 games but finished 2nd, 3 points behind Galatasray and lost on penalties in the Europa QFinals.

the amazon prime show on Spurs showed how much crap he was dealing with
