Welcome back Jose :)

[Lie-in King]

Excellent news! :-))

If the owner has learned that he knows nothing about football; as much as Mourinho knows about oil and gas and dealing with Putin; and does not interfere, having listened to his, equally ignorant, favourites, and lets Mourinho run the squad selection, the acquisitions and sales, and the team, all will be fine.


Anyone think that's going to happen for even the 4 years of the contract?

[bibblebub]

What do you reckon he's going to have to achieve in the 1st year to avoid the Abramovich boot? League and Champions League double?

[FredPuli43]

He's going to sell Luiz and Torres first, by all accounts, so he may not make it to the end of the season! Both are said to be favourites of the owner.

Lampard will be so pleased I bet he's wetting the bed in anticipation.
