I think this will be his ugliest breakup. Jose is fighting to save his rep as a great manager and not a has been great manager. When this goes south, because it will with Levy. Mourinho will fight with everything to save his rep.
Jose Mourinho | Spurs manager
- Thread starter roonster09
- Start date
Interesting poll. I voted no simply because of Levy and the lack of funding coming Jose's way.
He won't get the 300m+ he always spends right away.

Finishing second with that squad will be the best achievement in his career.
Of course he will. United fans are always respectful. He's done nothing wrong for us to hate him apart from being rubbish, but then Moyes got a positive response too.
If he starts acting up though he'll get turned on very quickly. I think some fans still see him as "our mourinho" but he was never ours, and we were never his. He's just a journeyman manager looking for a pay day.
If he gets passed the usual 3 years i'll be amazed.
Hahaha wow. I said elsewhere this is the most Mourinho club he’ll have managed for the first time since Inter. I am fascinated to see where this goes.
Man Utd and Spurs are basically knee and knee in the how low can you go stakes so it’s a straight manager-off for the rest of the season!

The title Jose Mourinho | Spurs manager just doesn't feel right
Interesting that Rui Faria isn't his assistant anymore either.
Guess they really did have a falling out.

Hopefully be as successful as Clough at Leeds...
Go in there, chew the squad out. Lose the dressing room, sacked before the end of the season...

I don't know if there was a fall out or not, but the official word was that Faria wanted to have a go at management himself which he is currently doing.
Fair enough, didn't realise he actually was in management currently. That makes sense.
Btw, Mourinho is earning more than Harry Kane
wowIt feels really weird seeing a manager like José manage a club like Tottenham.
I think it might go really well though honestly, well, for the short term obviously.
Don’t we play them soon?

Does anyone know when his 1st presser is?
It will take some getting used to.
Heritage. Let me tell you about Heritage. Spurs last won the title, The Beatles were still in school. This is heritage
With the obvious curse someone has put on United, this will turn out perfectly, just to illistrate that no one can succeed at United. Am I moaning right?
He has Teflon underpants
Think it's more faria has a job as manger in Qatar and his teams top of the league, probably better money in that than being an assistant.
What's your impression on this? Is Levy about to change MO in the transfer market or has Jose agreed to work with what he has? I cat get my head around this, highest paid manager in our history and paying of Jose?
What? SAF was a massive failure as was Busby then
Tomorrow at 2pm.
Won't be long before he justifies it when asked by saying.Fair enough, didn't realise he actually was in management currently. That makes sense.
Btw, Mourinho is earning more than Harry Kane
'How many trophies Harry Kane, how many trophies Mourinho it makes sense, no?'
Obviously post SAF
So the right man can succeed?
It's bonkers.
280k a week for a manager that has failed majorly in his last 2 jobs. Football management really is the golden egg once you've had some success in the past isn't it.
I'll be amazed if Kane isn't looking at that like !?!? where's my 300k a week
So-and-so. Rui Faria wanted to start his managerial career and only postponed due to being a loyal assistant.
Mourinho actually appointed a very good assistant in João Sacramento: he has a very good luggage in football and sports science knowledge. Lille will miss him for sure.
Honestly I have no clue how this will play out. I can't imagine Jose accepting the job without having an open and frank conversation with Levy about what available funds there will be and the types of players he would like. It's going to be a very interesting couple of years.
Louis Vuitton pieces?
He will do well at Spurs. Still a great manager and I’m sure Levy and José discussed transfer strategy and came to an agreement. They still have a good squad a realistically only need 1-2 signings. Assuming they can keep what they have.
Yeah from what I can tell they have known each other for a few years, Levy apparently even consulting with him. I simply cant have see Jose coming in without a promise of money and I cant see Levy being stupid enough to lie to him knowing the Jose reaction. Have to say I am excited and hesitant, Saturday away to West Ham will show us a lot about the current mentality of the squad.
Samsonite. He’s going to need it
Absolutely shocking but also absolutely intriguing. All the best to him but not at our expense, I hope.
Will be very interesting to see how this turns out.

I think this might be an astute appointment for the next 18 months after that it is probably going to be the usual Mourinho circus.
So basically it’s the same as LVG, went behind his back to get Jose
No doubt about it, no chairman should sack a manager without knowing whats next.
I feel very sorry for the Tottenham fans.
Foolish. Levy didn’t back to Poch level. He’ll never back to Jose’s level.
Are you guys worried about your acdemy players like Skipp, walker-peters etc? @balaks @InLevyITrust
I would add that someone better should be in place, a coach that can take the club forward.
In LVGs case, Jose was clearly an upgrade. Not convinced this time round
I have no idea, I don't quite buy into this Jose doesn't use youth I think if he thinks a player can do a job he will use him, didn't he love McToman? I don't think Walker-Peters is going to make it, but I think Skipp has the ability and workrate for Jose. I'm not gonna lie here I have no idea how this will go, I'm not surprised Poch has gone but I am very surprised we went for Jose.
