Inter Milan or the Portuguese national team.
What next for Mourinho?

He has achieved these things with some of the most expensive squads in the world, not with fecking Leicester. If you give him Bournemouth or Wolves, he won't fare better than their current managers. Whereas at Porto or Inter he could compete without having the best squad in Europe, it isn't the case anymore. He's finished. I think that he will get another chance at a relatively big club like Inter but I think he won't be good. He would want massive wages and I don't think that many clubs would be naive to agree with his demands.
What big club will take him though? After this shitshow and the one at Chelsea, his reputation surely is at an all time low and the last couple of years he has seemed genuinely miserable as a manager
Real Madrid is a possibility, otherwise one of the Milan clubs or Portugal.
I imagine he'll have a bit of time off first, given that we've just handed him £24m for the privilege of sacking him.

Think he needs some time out of the game,recharge,up skill.
It will be interesting to see if if he will be successful again at another team if he is and we continue to struggle with managerial appointments then Utd could well be a poison chalice.

It's not our problem anymore.
He must be feeling great this morning. Weight off his shoulders, £24m in his pocket, finally able to leave that hotel.
It’s not over for him as a top level manager. Our club is simply cursed at the moment.

He will probably go on to win loads.

He needs some time out and not rush into another job so quickly. Just needs to enjoy football again, watch how the top clubs play these days and think on how to modernise his outdated tactics.
Well, I always said that they would regret letting LvG go for Mourinho. Mourinho can never stay at a club for a longer time.
I think his prime days are over. He just left too many burned bridges.

He's done as a manager, think he should jet off somewhere sunny and retire.
I don't think a 'big club' will take him on. He's too expensive for smaller clubs and he won't lower his demands for the likes of West Ham. Guardiola won the war, Mourinho can manage the Portuguese national team in the forseeable future, especially after Ronaldo is gone, but otherwise he's at least not something special anymore and imo, he's got only himself to blame for it. What exactly did he do in the last couple of months, why oh why couldn't he get the likes of Pogba, Fred and Sanchez playing? Shamefull stuff, it really is.
The problem is, time has moved on. He doesn't seem to go well with younger / modern players and their attitude.
That is also correct. Players nowadays don't like totalitarian leaders like him. But I think at INter it might work: is a very similar situation where the squad is getting mature and they have no title winning experience. There's a good chance to work. But all depends on how he will relate with Icardi.
A very wise assessment and for his sake I hope that he does something along those lines.
He's already tactically a dinosaur and he only does well at clubs when he has 10 times more spending power than everyone else. No big clubs will touch him and I'd be amazed if Madrid are interested.
As soon as we gave him a 2 year extension he downed tools. He knew exactly what he was doing. Fancied his chances of one last monster pay day before heading into international management. He craves the attention so when he comes back - Portugal or Italy might be interested 6 months down the road.

Think he'll lead Qatar at the 2022 world cup. They'll want a big name and he's a massive mercenary anyway.
Europa league team
Nothing , with so many millions
International football. There isn't a single big club that will wanna welcome him and his toxicity. International football
Factory work.

He’ll probably be fine once he keeps his wife away from Icardi
Bus driver.
This is what he should ahd done after the Madrid spell. Even Guardiola did it and he took his time to take some courses and attend some conferences.
He's too much of a stubborn narcissist to be self critical and try and change anything about his methods so I don't see him being any different at his next club.
His peak years are well and truly gone.

I will be honest.
I wish him the worst at even his next club.
The game needs less people like him.

Wife and daughter, I suppose. Icardi would probably do both.Serie A or Portugal NT.
Real will be fine for a season or two as usual with Jose, and then end in tears. Not sure they would take him back again and experience the same cycle.

I think he's done at top club level... I think only PSG might take a punt on him, and Inter would probably have him back too
Anywhere far away from any comparison with Guardiola (on a daily basis) would suffice, i believe. At the pinnacle of his managerial career (treble with Inter) he chose to take on a suicidal mission against one of the greatest sides in the history of the sport. It was a war of attrition that ended with a Pyrrhic victory in 2012. This took its toll on him and left him with insecurities he still struggles to cope with.
Italy would be a good destination for him. At Inter (or Milan), he'll find the resources he needs in order to create a side able to throw the gauntlet down to Juve on a domestic level. I believe that his days in England are truly done after his second debacle at a big club. I don't think that PSG will be interested in him any time soon and i don't think that Mou's ego will "allow" him to manage a NT which is usually seen as a job "after retirement" for top managers.

Real or Inter, maybe even PSG.
People are kidding themselves if they think this was his last big gig, why do you think he's been constantly trying to deflect the blame all this time? So that it doesn't fall on him when he's inevitably gone.
Likes of Mark Hughes and Sam Allardyce continue to get gigs in PL still and a winner like Mourinho won't get a top job?

PSG or Inter
He failed at Chelsea and failed at United. He left scorched earth at Real. Besides Inter, I don't think any of the Big clubs would consider taking him back (Real maybe). Sooner or later he will run out of big clubs. Unless he wins the CL again his market value has decreased significantly.Real or Inter, maybe even PSG.

Who gives a rat’s ass? Probably back to Real.
The FA should have a ruling against morons like this who deliberately jeopardize teams to get paid to get out of their contracts. Five years coaching in Siberia seems fair...
Real Madrid.
To the museum hopefully.
Inter 100%. His recent jibe at Juventus might have secured the job for him
A course of therapy, and then a hobby, I'm thinking water colour landscape painting.
Then after a suitable time period a 'greeter' in a department store, with his winning smile and cheery disposition he'd be a natural.
