Posted by BlueChampion in It took just one press conference for JM to hit the headlines and ruffle up weathers again. Here he talks about his love for Chelsea, his desire to come back, the pressure-free manager and something else too. There was a tongue-in-cheek slant in the whole interview which if you miss, you won’t get the whole point!
JM insisted that he still loves Chelsea which is nice to hear. I’m sure he cannot hate Chelsea for all that he had done for Chelsea and for the support he received from his players.
I still feel that the club is part of me and I want it to succeed. But I hope to play them next season in the Champions League and I want to go there and kill them.
That is JM in a couple of lines. Sentimental but aggressive like crazy. He did not ‘vow to kill Chelsea’ like many papers claimed. He certainly wants to kill any team, not just Chelsea but given a choice I would not prefer playing his team. The chances are he would end up with mostly Milan, Real Madrid or Barcelona, in that order. Of course JM will have an upper hand as he would know the strengths and weaknesses of each of our players unless Grant does a complete overhaul by summer, that is, if he is to stay beyond summer.
He also made a jibe against Arsene Whinger.
A unique team – their coach hasn’t won for years, but he’s an idol. There are no pressures at Arsenal. But do not say he’s growing young players into talents, because he takes jewels and polishes them.
If you’re a good enough manager and you’re given loads and loads of time to do your stuff, odds are you’d come out good. I can understand this as JM was sacked for getting just two domestic trophies. Also he is only one who boldly makes this statement about ‘Arsene taking jewels and polishing them’. In common press, it is like blasphemy. No one would like to question the so-called ‘professor’. I’m in complete agreement with his statement about Whinger.
Arsene’s response to this statement was very very cheap. He talks about people winning 100 metre sprints by cheating etc. Arsene generally thinks that the only way his Arsenal team can lose is when the opponent team cheats. Such a bloody joke. Whinger’s teams have a history of being a bad losers (remember the pizzas and crying), his teams being the most dirty playing teams, the worst horrible tacklers and an arrogant bunch. And suddenly now he is talking about sportsmanship! Arsene can’t get over the fact he could not beat JM with any of his teams and in fact lost to him a few times. We’ve heard it many times before! You win and it’s beautiful football and you lose, the world is against you and are teams are playing ugly, dirty football to beat you. Nonsense and typical Arsene.
After Arsene, JM goes on to dismiss our dear old Avram Grant like he doesn’t even exist.
I feel nothing for him and everything for the club. I was in the club for 3½ years and we shared the same club for a couple of months, no more.
How can the journos not ask him about the 39th game.
I’m so much in love with the English game and so much in love with Premiership that, if I was in position to say yes or no, then we play every Premiership game in England. If they want to do something abroad, why not a Charity Shield in New York, maximum, or a Carling Cup final in Tokyo or Seoul?
Surprisingly, this was my exact feeling which I wrote in Premier League: Going Global or Going Insane.
He thinks he would end up coaching in Spain or Italy next season but certainly would work with only those who really wants him and believe in his project:
I don’t want to return now. At the moment I am studying, but next year – yes. Either in Italy or Spain, and afterwards I want to go back to England, and then finish my career as coach to the Portuguese national team. At the moment I love the pitch, playing two or three high-level matches per week. As a national coach too much depends on the the work of others. As for Italy or Spain? Whoever really wants me. Whoever fully believes in my project. Whoever thinks I am the ideal person. I am free, I have neither a pre-contract nor a gentleman’s agreement.
Something tells me that he would coach Milan next season.
Now comes the most surprising part. He says he’s in touch with Kenyon and Abramovich and you know what, doesn’t rule out a return to Chelsea!! When he was asked about a possible to return to Chelsea:
Yes, why not. I would love to do that, of course, of course. I was speaking to Mr Roman Abramovich and Peter Kenyon on the phone last week as we keep in touch. I was telling them I wished them always good things, that I wished them always to succeed and I wished them always to win. But we talked mostly about family and friends and our lives. We have friendly relations – It always was. The reality is my leaving was a mutual agreement. We are happy to talk to each other. One day back to Chelsea, why not? I still feel Chelsea is part of me. I have Chelsea in my heart forever and I wish them only good things. I have been gone for five months and you wouldn’t get a bad word from me.
Didn’t we think that Roman and Jose had a bloody fight over something and broke up? I simply cannot wait for the next edition of his autobiography. There is some untold secret. And yes, he has not said one bad thing about Chelsea even after he left. Even when he was managing Chelsea he was talking about lack of support from top management but after he left, he has been very quiet while the Press were longing for an interview with him about what transpired or conspired in the Chelsea board room.
Would I prefer to see Jose back in Chelsea. Yes, but not now, not this season or next season, but surely after that. What do you feel?
Loading ...Knowing Jose, all this could be his games to get himself the best offer at the right club.
Please Jose should be allowed to come back.Right now will be most ideal.
Though I am a Chelsea fan but sorry to say Jose deserves to be a coach of top-giant. Well Chelsea is also a bigger club(thats of course only in this past 4 years), but in my honest opinion no way near to Madrid, Barca, Manutd, Milans in terms of so many ‘X’ factors. Who knows, may be Jose can succeed Sir Alex @ ManUtd one day. Whatever, I wish Jose all the best ‘n’ he is a born-winner!
Jose Mourinho won the Carling Cup beating Arsenal and Avram Grant lost it to Spurs!
Jose Mourinho won the FA Cup beating Man Utd and Avram Grant lost it to Barnsley?
Bring back JM in the next available Setubal-London flight.
You need one more choice: “Yes, yesterday.”
lol farrell! good one!
i want jose to come back but not this season. let’s give grant enough time (to fail). avram grant is a master manipulator and conspirator. he would start a propaganda that was not given enough time. so let him be here until the end of the season. let each and every supporter of chelsea convince himself that grant is useless and then we’ll bring in jose with a new transfer budget.
Mourinho is the best now
Grant is **** !!!
All we are saying Bring back Jose!!!!!!!!
We do not want a coach like Grant because with him Chelsea will keep going down but with Jose Chelsea is a WINNER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Bring Jose back because Chelsea needs him right now.
Hi guys,BlueGirl @8, is my 9 year old Chelsea suppoorting daughter- even she know what trouble lies ahead with Grant.
That man has done so much for us. I nearly cried when I woke up to hear the news on the radio saying he had left.
This season has seen us humiliated and shows that money and players are nothing without our driving force that is Jose Mourinho.
MourofEssien, you’re raising her well
Ashton, Avram Grant has been granted enough time to fail. And he HAS failed. Chelsea’s not beaten one good team throughout his tenure and is 8 points behind the leaders. This is Mourinho’s team and Mourinho’s style of play is still implemented and has been consistently under Grant, though far less effectively.
You know, Grant has lost this game to Barnsley miserably without Lampard and Drogba. Remember a certain Jose Mourinho getting results with a much more depleted side?? We had no strikers for a whole month last season, and no central defenders or goalies for a third of the season!!!
About the signing of Mourinho, JM has been through this before. He was willing to negotiate a comeback after he was sacked at Benfica. It would be one of the happiest days for me a as a fan if JM resigns for the Blues I love so much. But it’s highly doubtful.
Jose should not be brought back although a apology of roman to all chelsea fans will do for appointment of his friend grant.Chelsea has to just appoint a any other good coach. We have the best squad it needs direction.
I love this idea but it is , I do not want to say “impossible” but it is very far.
Jose left Chelsea when Roman , and Kenyon were on top , they are still on top , so what should make him back ? no changes have happened to Chelsea since then , so why should Mourinho come back ? I do not see any reason , he won’t come back,
but I would be great, if he came back.
I support Lippi , but I think we will see a dutch coach next season.
we want jose right now or we wiil’nt win any s*** for the upcoming 50 years
barcelona lost again and again the lead of real back to 8 points after it got reduced to just 2 .
barcelona is calling jose big time…
jose….please come to chelsea…..
i want you return to chelsea and i want you bring chelsea to be a winner
for every season…..i believe you can do it….you can give this club many trophy…..i’m very sad you leave chelsea….please come back….
Chelseas been pretty boring lately. I demand controversy! and who better to deliever then our own Jose Mourinho.
for goodness sake how are mighty fallin under our watchful eye all the legacy of jm has been destroyed by avram grant and ten cate plz plz plz in the name of anything that is good bring chelsea back to stardom or prepare for worst
@BC
In all probability it looks unlikely…………..but if jose is true about that phone call thing then it may very well be on the cards.
BC I can’t tell you how bad i felt when he left…i may look a hypocrite but that’s the truth.
bring back Jose but he should promise that he will see to it that we atleast play football instead of chess against non top-3 side
@BC
Milan and Barca…………i am sorry i don’t see it happening……….barca has a long history of playing exhibition football as you call it…………and honestly do you think stars like messi will stay after all what jose had said about him or can you imagine ettoo n henry defending in box with messi and ronnie[who is finally hitting form with each match] tracking back.
Milan………again it will be lippi if it happens…….anyway milan board is not that concerned about winning…..they absolutely trust ancelotti…and then milan is again a continental club………..gallieni decides who to transfer……..and they don’t spend.
I don’t care who comes next. All i want is the sack of Avram Grant. He is the worst coach we’ve had in recent years.
chelsea are the best better than any team if we have the person who is now i charge of chelsea were never win a lot of games so we need are old guy who was i charge of chelsea and we will win as much games as we want so bring are old guy who was in charge of chelsea and we will win i the future!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!……………..
If you’re a good enough manager and you get all the money you nee to buy the players you fancy you simply have to win every trophy.
JM did not and thus failed.
All the money and his magic worked only 2.5 years.
i want jose to come back not because he is the best coach cause he is not, only because i liked his personalaty and cause he built up the team we have today. plus the players were loyal to the team and every other pl team hated uss (feared us).
It was great to hear Jose once again like you say BC, passion, fire, sentimentality, love for football all wrapped up in one.
He’s charismatic, far too good to be out of a top job for too long and I miss him like crazy.
However, you can never go back, well you can but I don’t think you should.
I was as shocked as anyone to hear that he still spoke to Roman and Peter Kenyon but I think that’s the other side of him few see, he mentioned he spoke to them about family and such things – again that’s a part of him – family and wanting to be loved.
That’s all I think he ever wanted here – to be loved (he was by many fans), respected/loved by the players but also loved and wanted by the board – and that’s where things fell apart.
However, clearly he still respects Roman and co and has a place in his heart for us fans.
I will always wish him well and I truly want him to be in charge of a big club next season – hell if Grant can be in charge of Chelsea it’s an insult that someone like Jose is unemployed!
I hope to see him back here one day – but not with Chelsea – I think he would want a different creative challenge.
He like us should savour what he had and it will go down in history, he has to now make some more history of his own and so do we.
All the best Jose, a man with fire and ice in his veins and a real passion for life – that’s what always enamoured me towards him – his passion for everything – even when it got him and us into trouble.
Even if I disagree with a person what I most admire is someone with a passion and true conviction for whatever they do in life – I can respect and admire that – I respected and admired him and always will.
He was not perfect but he was perfect for Chelsea whilst it lasted.
Oh and another thing, thank you for telling it like it is about Wenger who seems to have a magical cloak around his shoulders which prevents anyone in the media from critising him an inch and for everyone to bang on about Arsenal’s amazingly beautiful football and how nasty Jose is to him etc etc.
What a load of…rubbish!
Jose told it like it is about Wenger and I for one was cheering from the rafters.
Wenger’s football with his “young kids” has not won them much over the last few years and if they are not allowed to play their way they instantly get lost and stroppy.
Jose has his number in more ways than one.
I’m sick of the sychophancy over Wenger and his football.
I hope Liverpool beat them in the CL tie even if it does mean we will face them again.
@26. bella
These are your words:
“Wenger’s football with his “young kids” has not won them much over the last few years..”
You are wrong, that FOOTBALL with those KIDS won them hundreds, thousands OR maybe millions of fans all over the WORLD.
FOOTBALL is not only about trophys. It’s about PASSION. And the biggest passion comes with a beautiful FOOTBALL.
FOOTBALL is like a woman. I, like billions of other guys, will feel attraction and passion to a BEAUTIFUL and SEXY woman, not to an UGLY and BORING one. The same is with football.
P.S. Though I don’t know about you girls.
Well Wenger’s beautiful football soon turns ugly when his players aren’t allowed to play as they want, Arsenal’s discipline record is harldy stellar either and Jose is right Wenger is allowed to work with little or no pressure, knowing there is no demand he must achieve a trophy each year as long as he continues trying to play football his way without compromise.
That’s a hell of a let off, I’d love to work in a job where my output though quality did not have to win any actual awards to be considered the best!
Trouble is if Wenger’s teams can’t play as they want he has no plan B – he can either play his way or they get ruffled and lose and then they moan that they were “kicked out of the game”. No they were BEATEN by a manager capable of having a plan A, B and C (a la Jose).
As for passion, I think you will find midfield decider that Jose had just as much passion for the game as Wenger does – he’s just more brazen and honest about his feelings and he told a few home truths about Wenger which more could do with saying in public.
I’m not saying Wenger is not a great manager and astute and intelligent man but I get fed up with the continual bowing and scraping that goes on about Arsenal and their football as if they have some divine right to be lauded as something a cut above everyone else morally.
@28. bella
1. I was not referring to PASSION of a manager. Who cares if Jose has a passion or not, we football fans are watching football not Jose’s mimics or face expressions. The greatest passion comes from the way teams like Arsenal and Barcelona play, which is called sexy football.
2. Did Jose have plan B when he drew 3 games against Liverpool in the Champions League in 3 years and got beaten 2 times being knocked out by Rafael Benitez on both occasions? In all of those games Rafa played the same way with the same tactics against Jose but in 3 years time Jose couldn’t find a PLAN B how to handle with the man, whose players were worse than his. (Please don’t talk about a goal that never was becaus there should be penalty against Chelsea)
@29….Mourinho never has plan B as far as playing style is concerned…he was good in making substitutions though…
M_D
if you dont think a manager need not have passion, that tells me somehting about your own passion. what’s wrong with your understanding? passion is not about facial expressions, see you have an understanding problem or a language problem.
jose did have a plan B and you know what benitez is not avram grant or some crap turkish manager. he matched jose with his tactics and that’s why those matches had to finish with a dodgy goal or a penalty shootout.
i will keep saying that it was a goal that never was. even we had a penalty against liverpool too. go support galatasataratasaray.
@31. Mister
Uneducated fool!
i knew this. M_D can never take criticisms. he thinks he is a know-all and any kind of opposition, he makes comments like #32. i thought only turk teams are crap . . .
@33. Arthur
My dear friend, if you read the line “you know what benitez is not avram grant or some crap turkish manager” and the last line “go support galatasataratasaray” of the post no. 31, provided that you have a little intelligence, you will agree with my last post.
Midfield_Decider isnt a Chelsea fan.
He hated Jose and he hated Grant. Real fans love their club IN SPITE of poor managers (like Grant). They LOVE their style of play. Not want them to play like Arsenal or Barcelona.
Honestly, M_D, why do you support Chelsea? You are the most disliked person on this forum. You are a crier in life – a whiner, one who can never be happy with anything. I hope we never have a second ‘fan’ ever remotely like you.
@27. Midfield_Decider
M_D remember this, maybe it will help in your murky mind, when judging football or managers.
” where ignorance lives stupidity rules”,you are the personified saying of this quote, now shut your GOB and stop advertising your low IQ.
@Bella
as always i liked your writtings, keep doing it.
In a knock out competitions clubs, managers need an element of luck, now and then, but to be a manager based ONLY ON LUCK, like this monkfish that says he has the experience to take Chelsea forward, it is an insult to any club fans, let alone to chelsea fans that know about football, and have seen JM to put cfc on the top of football tree.
JM always had a plan B, hence the substitutions at the right time with the right players.
I like sexy footbal as well but I prefer to WIN WITH PASSION, and JM was right about Wenger, many many arsenal fans must agree with JM, beautifull football but very few troffies………
Anyway the title of this Blog is ” Do you want to bring backMourinho?”
Well i would, but I do not think it is right to do that now.
I for one do not believe in second commings (KK v Newcastle)
But better than bring back mourinho is tho GET RID OF THIS CLOWN AG, that reckons he is a top manager, by the way chelsea shoud get rid of AG and send him to Turkey. Turquey is in need of TOP managers.
Wath a turkish delight did chelsea got.
GET RID OF AG, is my final thought.
M_D is definitely a blue. guys we have been that road- he is just too fond of barca and arsenal- Both of them were in jose’s pockets- one never beat jose, the other never beat jose unless jose was playing 10 men
M_D dislikes grant with same pasion as AG friend- at least some common ground there
wenger is all flowers without fruit. rijkaard is now being exposed big time- flowery football is not what it is about- it is efficient football that yields fruit. let aresenal play all the exhibition football, as long as we keep beating them, am glad.
Quoting Maverick @ 30126
please..!!hope chelsea management hired back JM next season..this season suck under AG..lost to spurs and barnsley..what a shame..!!
setubal has no airport.
I would like to have JM back now but realize this won’t happen. Don’t think he’ll be back next season either and it’s like a dagger in the heart to see what the constipated raven is doing to our team. He doesn’t take training, he dithers on substitutions, he doesn’t have a coaching badge. Everything about him is negative. If we can’t get JM back, let’s at least have a top class manager next season, not RA’s mate.
@36. AGfriend
Hey, whoever you are, under the article “Chelsea -Derby 6-1″ I publicly proved that you are a stupid guy.
I wrote a post about Fener’s players and you came out and replied me with arrogance (like I wrote for you) saying “please, please I know ALL about Fener’s Brazilians” and wrote some stuff about them. Then I proved that you are completely wrong on everything you wrote, but you still SHAMELESSLY continue to debate with me??? Moreover, while being proved to be wrong on everything you insult me by saying that I have no knowledge of football. Pathetic!!!
Every blogger of this GREAT BLOG who has a little intelligence including the owner of this blog-BC, must be laughing at the low level of intelligence you have. Do your really think that these people will take your posts seriously anymore???? They might not tell you that you have a very low level of intelligence but they will be feeling that whenever they see your nick name “AGfriend”.
Please, I am not talking about football anymore because you crossed a line between intelligence and stupidity, honour and shame. It has nothing to do with football. It’s about education, decency and cultivation.
I’m not going to continue to debate with someone who has no intelligence and shame. Go, find someone with the same level of intelligence as yours and please try harder.
You are ignored.
@37. MourofEssien
Mate, thanks for support.
If you consider yourself an intelligent man, which I know you are, I don’t think you should take seriously AGfriend’s posts anymore (read my post no. 43).
@35. longrange
“I hope we never have a second ‘fan’ ever remotely like you.”
Well, it seems you don’t know many of us.
Whenever I see the commenter name ‘midfield_decider’, I know there will be some pointless, classless and zero-knowledge crap in his comments.
AGFriend is one of the best commenters around. Of course, JoseHoliday is the best!
@46. Ashton
you are just in time, ass-leaker, we were missing you.
M_D,how could you even measure AGFriend’s IQ because there is no instrument to even detect such low quantities let alone measure it…
AGFriend’s foe, how dya know that there’s no such instrument? did u explore all the universe in search of it?
@49…there may be one if u r insisting but no instrument can detect non-existing entity…isn’t..AGFriend’s skull carries no grey matter at all…so how can it be measured…
@43. Midfield_Decider
You wrote
“I’m not going to continue to debate with someone who has no intelligence and shame. Go, find someone with the same level of intelligence as yours and please try harder.”
I did, YOU, comedian.
Yes Your level of football knowledge is on par with a 5 years old, and you never proved anything, and yes i know all about the brazilian fooftballers in turkey, they go there to retire, thats all.
Now go back to to your couch and play with yourself.
Good B0i.
@50. AGFriend’s foe
LOL, I like you because you original, would love to see the IP# of M_D and AGfriend’s foe LOL are they the same?
backkkkkkkkkkkkk mourinho…. CHELSEA FC Champion.!!
If Mourinho is ready to play foot+ball,not air+ball, then he is welcome…otherwise let him destroy some other club..
@54. AGFriend’s foe
Oh YES JM did destroy other clubs in the way that chelsea used to win and play GREAT football, was only the last 3 months of histenure that chelsea was a bit off, something that could have been put right.
One thing is for sure in my mind, had JM been in chelsea now we would have had 2 troffies in the bag and chelsea would have been leading the EPL and with the luck in the CL draws maybe another one, so it would not have been unthinkable the 4 troffies with the charity league I couls see 5.
@55….lol…4 trophies….he couldn’t win CL even after spending millions and was repeatedly humiliated by Cesspool…he won EPLs with Ranieri’s buys…and then brought his Drogbas,Kalous,Ferrieras etc and see what happened to our team….u know what,ManU’s resurgence last season and Chelsea’s total transformation into Mourinho’s kitchen team coincided and that compounded the problem…Mourinho fans repeatedly say that we played nice football in first 2 seasons under Mourinho…and who were the major players then…all were Ranieri’s players….Cole,Robben,Duff,Cech,Makelele(even at 34 he is playing like a magician) were all brought by Ranieri….whom did Mourinho got…Drogba,Kalou,Ferriera(14m!!what a waste)…and then he turned someone like Mikel into a crap ‘pass to defenders’ player….enough of this debate…I just ask you to go through all of our matches last season and watch them with open unbiased mind…and I am sure you will agree with a comment made by someone last season that Chelsea-Cesspool matches are like shit at tip of a stick….what interests can that person have in making such a comment…nothing…he was just telling truth…and I totally agree with that comment….
56. AGFriend’s foe
This guy makes me laugh.I can see that you dont understand anything about football.
AGfriend is completely right, when he mentions that the only destruction of teams used to be the opposition.
drogba turned in one of the most lethal attackers, ferreira was and still is, when in form, a formidable right back, essien another fantastic player, the same for kalou and malouda, yes these players are top notch when MOTIVATED something that AG cant do.
Now that the motivation is being done by John Terry maybe, maybe he will save AG’ skin.
In the football media, and I am part of it, mention AG and is the puch line of every joke.
I couldnt care less what will happen, but trying to compare Mourinho with AG is like comparing sun light and artificial light, day and night.
He is a completely useless coach, I read somewhere that he could be a good manager at synchrinized swimming, the man,Avram is completely out of his breath. Only faith and friendship keeps him in that job. Absolutely useless.
@57….kalou and malouda fantastic players along with Ferriera…in my school team I will give only Kalou a place at most….its a fact that Mourinho bought crap players in Europe…
BTW AG is also a crap manager…
Stupid idiot AGfriend confused me with AGfriend’s foe. LOL
@50. AGFriend’s foe
LOL,
well, you are on spot.
I see you’re new here.
Keep it up.
@57. I am a footy player
Is it a coincidence that the people who agree with AGfriend are ignorand fools???
@56. AGFriend’s foe proves that JM is not such a good manager and you come and write things about AG!!!!!!!!! Who compares JM with AG??? Very funny.
JM is quite simply the best man for the job. I, for one, miss him so much!
jose morinho is just the best coach around the world.the special one is needed at stamford bridge.
I believe a big club like Chelsea need a long term Manager like Sir Alex or Mr V. Now ask yourself who could handle, stay and manage Chelsea for 10 years plus? Do you get the same answer as me? Only one, the Special One.
I hope Roman, Peter and the Board will show their deepest strengths by reversing the present situation and bring Jose back. PLEASE-PLEASE-PLEASE.
What is needed and URGENTLY is to SACK Avram, I read that someone calls him the “monkfish” and it is so appropriate.
The guy is a “monkfish” out of water.
SACK this useless wanker.
We need Louis Van Gaal
Jose Mourinho is brilliant. I hope to see him back next season with Chelsea winning so much more.
We want and we need the chosen one to return, to come home. Come back to your family, your Chelsea family.
i think that avram should just stay as the manager because he has brought great improvement to the team and mourino has had hes time and he is now gone so ppl should get over him.i think avram is cool and if are a real supporter you would be happy that someone is trying and helping chelsea isn’t that what footie is about hmmm
pls pls pls jose come back in chelsea i am chelsea and ur fan u r the best manager of chelsea pls pls come bask chelsea’s needs u pls come back
pls pls pls pls pls jose come back in chelsea pls we need u pls come back in 2008/2009 season pls come back i like chelsea team and i want to see u in chelsea as a manager pls come back from zeeshan (pakistan)
Mourinho deserves to be at Chelsea. The only reason Grant is doing a decent job, is because he is playing with 95% of the players that were signed by Mourinho.
Roman, go to your ashtray in one of your Ferrari’s, find a couple of millions pounds, dial ‘The special one’ and bring that man back!
(The special one) Jossy come back!!! you’re the one would bring chelsea fan happy and cry
We NEED AND WANT Mourinho back. He is indeed the ’special’ one…
*sigh* Chelsea looking for a new coach…
I want Jose Mourinho back to chelsea,nobody is like him.And nobody will be like him.
jose is truly special…no one could have less class, be so self-absorbed, have so inflated a view of himself than jose. how special. and how appropriate for chelsea to consider rehiring him. everyone knows he’s the perfect fit with roman, another know-nothing owner oblivious to the need to have continuity to achieve excellence. avram not only did a better job than jose, he did a better job than anyone imagined he could, under nearly impossible circumstances. please bring back jose so chelsea can fall to its deserved place as a no-class loser.
