Bobs problem, which will be his biggest hurdle is delivering on the european stage, he has to evolve his tactics or he will find the same problem he had at inter............. As for jose, i'd of moved heaven and earth for him 2 years ago but the very fact he believes he can say jump and clubs say how high pisses me off frankly.
I always thought he underachieved in Europe while he was at Inter, especially considering how 'easy' one those season was for them in Serie A. Having said that, you'd hope he has learned his lessons and will be more effective. Regarding Mou - I see what you're saying...to be honest, he's never really pissed me off. I like everything about him...I understand he's not everyone's cup of team but that's probably why I like him so much.

Forza Mancini

I don't personally think he can as he uses the mantra of everyone is against me to deflect the attention from his players, this ultimately rubs up owners/chairman etc as he has to be controversial, which in turn turns relationships sour - he loses this and he loses 50% of his ability to be a success.

My personal opinion is that he never wanted to leave Chelsea or the premiership but Roman left him no choice with his meddling and forcing of players upon him. He'll come back to the premiership and wherever he pitches up it will IMO be his last club team. He'll stay until he wants the Portugal job.
