Think you've literally summed up my feelings at the moment (and very well at that).Not at the moment. I'd long been an advocate for Mourinho taking over. I'd have preferred him to Moyes in 2013: I said as much. He'd have been my first choice.
His recent form is extremely worrying though. From a managerial perspective, his head doesn't seem in the right place. He regularly slates his own players, his conduct has been shocking, his side play awful football, and the atmosphere at Chelsea just comes across as completely toxic. There are other concerns, such as his terrible record with youth.
Personally, I'd be interested in the possibility of appointing Mourinho in the future, but I'd avoid for now. I'd see how he does in his next couple of jobs, and then consider going back to him at a push. Personally, I'd prefer an option such as Guardiola or Ancelotti ahead of Mourinho right now if they were obtainable. There's just something incredibly toxic about the man right now, and his season with Chelsea this year has been utterly embarrassing despite the quality he has at his disposal.
Yeh good post agree entirely. I've always had my doubts but particularly after this season you'd be mad to hire him. He looks to have completely lost it this year and I'd want to know exactly what's been going on there before entertaining him as a our manager. Amazingly he could be a busted flush.Not at the moment.

Agree with this. I also believe he acts up if the board don't back him fully in the transfer market (we've seen this previously at other clubs), which is probably part of the reason for their current slump. By the sounds of it he didn't really want any of their Summer signings. Judging by comments in the media it looked like his three main targets were Martial, Greizmann and Stones; whereas they ended up with Rahman, Pedro and a few unknown youngsters.He should have come here in 2013 instead of Moyes. I don't think a downfall like the one he's currently experiencing at Chelsea would happen here because I honestly believe he wanted to come here and not Chelsea two years ago.
On the other hand if he was sacked by Chelsea and came here he'd be very motivated to prove himself which could work in his favour. His stock must have fallen during the last 5 months with Chelsea performing the way they have but he's still one of the top 5 managers in the world along with Ancelotti, Guardiola, Klopp and Moyes.
Pretty much my viewHe is a very good short term manager but I don't understand him. He is able to make his team produce a nice attacking style but will abandon it everytime he faces a good team. He is prone to meltdowns and seems to easily alienate his players, if there was a way to make him feel constantly safe, he might not try to sabotage himself.

His teams have underdog mentality even when they're clear favourites. It's showing this season where they surrender every time the opposition has a proper go at them because they cannot sustain the pressure.He is a very good short term manager but I don't understand him.
