Jose Mourinho next job

sunnysingh · 21 Apr 2008 at 20:17

where do u guys and girls think his next club will be. most of the gossips seems to be inclined towards inter milan. althogh inter milan are a good team in the italian league i dont think they are at a high level in europe, but hey look what he did with porto.

i believe he will be going to either real madrid or a slight chance of going 2 barcelona, if he does go to real madrid i feel sorry for Bernd Schuster whos done a good job there racing away with the title with barcelona no where 2 been seen.

thats the problem with these big clubs the expections are so high.

peace out

Inter/Barca

I don't think he'll go to Madrid or Barcelona simply for the reasons above - neither are really "stable" positions, no matter what you achieve.

Thought he had already agreed to take on Inter at end of the season?

The red tops most likely, they'll print anything.

Real yes but not Barca. Joan Laporta has been excellent for Barca and if the job becomes available (which is likely) then im sure that would be JM's first choice.

Other than that it would be either AC or Inter.

I've been saying that for a couple of years.

Think it was the Guardian I saw talking about him striking a deal with Inter.

Surely if Mourinho goes to Madrid or Barcelona, he'll face exactly the same problems he did at Chelsea?

He was constantly under fire from Abramovich (according to the press) for not playing attractive, stylish football. And what have Schuster and Capello and the likes learnt about Spanish fans? They loathe boring, defensive football with a a passion. He'd just end up in the same situation he was over here, and I don't think he's stupid enough not to see that himself.

So Italian football management seems like a match made in heaven to me.

He'll actually go?! I wouldn't be suprised to see him die on the touchline in ten years time at the rate he keeps extending his contract.

I don't understand what you mean here, Laporta has been exellent? has he? Also, why do say not Barca and then the job is likely to become available, and if it does then Mourinho will get the job.

I thought that too.... I think he means that if the Real jobs comes up he'll take that over the Barca job?

I've read that three times and I'm still not sure I understand quite what you're saying, but here goes.

BaZ said "not Barca" because the post he quoted was saying he wouldn't go there. It's called a double negative

- BaZ thinks he would go there given the chance. Also, Laporta is the president of the club, not the manager.

I know that

That's one of the things that confused me, it was just from reading his post that I thought he was saying Laporta was manager (which I understand he obviously doesn't.

Also, my point on Laporta was that whilst he hasn't been really bad he hasn't exactly been really great. He should've found a replacement for Ronaldinho much earlier and sacked Rijkaard prior to this season (although hindsight is a wonderful thing).

Also, I would like to add I was drunk when I made my last post so that's probably why I am unintelligle.
