@Djemba-Djemba you got a real mean strek, don't ya?
It matters not a thing if he is still managing in one the top five leagues - so is Sean Dyche. The perception of Mourinho is changing fundamentally. He's been sacked unceremoniously at his last three clubs after losing the dressing room in each of them. At United especially everything was set up for him: a reasonable transfer budget (with which he wanted to make a Martial-Perisic/Willian swap, not to mention wanting to get rid of Pogba), a fanbase that were more or less patient with him in spite of his soul-killing football, and players who have shown since his departure that they have enough quality to challenge for the title.Despite the narrative on here that nobody wants Mourinho and he will be managing in the Portuguese 3rd division next season I'm pretty sure he'll land on his feet somewhere in the top five leagues. Possibly Inter if they get top four in the Serie A?
Inter have started to win domestically since the foundation and has had a long story of successes with several winning cycles during 111 years (never relegated), its the second most successful italian club in Italy and the second most successful italian club in the european cups/Intercontinental cups. Revenues aside there’s nothing to envy to anyone like United that have actually a really similar story.At every club, it is the same story for Jose. He wants to be the center of attention and when things go wrong, everybody but him is at fault. Inter and Chelsea are his level - clubs that don't have a long history of expecting to win every competition they are in - and even there, he doesn't last for more than 2 full seasons. Madrid and United are elite clubs and his time at that level seems likely at an end.
The real link made even less sense, given their history...I don't see how in 2019 people can still think PSG and Jose makes sense? I just don't see it at all, it would be a baffling decision. At least I could understand the Real link on a certain level because of their history together.
They want the CL, he’s won 2 CLs.I don't see how in 2019 people can still think PSG and Jose makes sense? I just don't see it at all, it would be a baffling decision. At least I could understand the Real link on a certain level because of their history together.
Nearly a decade ago. He's not made a final since has he? Or come all that close in recent times.They want the CL, he’s won 2 CLs.
Consistent semi appearances is still a hell of a lot better than their current record. Granted, Sevilla was a huge blot (and so was Chelsea’s exit in 2014).Nearly a decade ago. He's not made a final since has he? Or come all that close in recent times.
I think inter is a less pressure environment than Chelsea. He will get a squad and environment there who just follow his orders to a tee.I think he'll move to Inter were he will end up ruining his legacy there as he did with Chelsea.
Haven’t our resident French fans said that style of football is extremely important to PSG and it’s owners, so they’re unlikely to go for Mourinho? Think it may have been @JPRouve or @kourouxI don't see how in 2019 people can still think PSG and Jose makes sense? I just don't see it at all, it would be a baffling decision.

Doesn’t every fan say that (including us!)? That goes out the window when desperate, and PSG may be willing to take a punt for a CL medal.
That is a fair point, I just seem to remember them being extremely adamant about it. That being associated with a positive, attacking team is extremely important for the image that PSG’s owners are trying to create for themselves. We could ask the resident PSG fans as well but I can’t remember their namesDoesn’t every fan say that (including us!)?

Even if this was the case (I don't think so), why would anyone take a punt on Mourinho in 2019 to win the CL? Sounds rather counterproductive if anything.Doesn’t every fan say that (including us!)? That goes out the window when desperate, and PSG may be willing to take a punt for a CL medal.
According to PSG's mouthpiece in the press there are several issues. They don't like his style, they don't like his attitude toward the hierarchy and they were highly unimpressed by his games against PSG, in particular when Chelsea lost against 10 men. Of course, you can never say never but allegedly they see him as an has been.Doesn’t every fan say that (including us!)?

All that may be true but Real Madrid were apparently about to hire him before Zidane shocked everyone and decided to go back so it's not like he's not getting any offers from big clubs like some people in here are claiming. Like I said, a return to Inter could be on the cards as he's adored there.It matters not a thing if he is still managing in one the top five leagues - so is Sean Dyche.

He deserves it too, the miserable fecker. Maybe Tottenham will take him when Poch finally decides he's had enough of his boss' lack of spending (he is showing every sign of it too). But I wouldn't wish Mourinho on even Glaston - though they fit together beautifully in their complete lack of self awareness.
So they have eyes then.According to PSG's mouthpiece in the press there are several issues.

We needed each other after the Lvg sacking and his stint in Chelsea. Unfortunately the cnut saw it as us needing him and got pig headed again.https://www.skysports.com/football/...cted-jose-mourinho-return-says-roman-calderon
some deluded fanboys thought he could walk into a big job. got the rejection.
If they go in the pragmatic direction, I could see them try to sign Allegri, Simeone or Pochettino. The later would please the fans.So they have eyes then.
If Khelaifi can break a door with his bare fists Bruce Lee style as reported after our win against them, I think Jose would keep his mouth shut, eh?According to PSG's mouthpiece in the press there are several issues.

Agree with all this.Mourinho has a cult like following. This group of followers will like us to believe that he's one step away from another big club like Real/ PSG/Chelsea/ Inter. Now that Real is off the list (and Mou didn't get the job even after a complete meltdown at the club), the followers are back saying that he will be appointed at PSG/ Chelsea/ Inter, reason being he won 2 UCLs a decade ago, but conveniently forgetting that after that, he has been unceremoniously sacked 3 times at 3 different clubs.
This is a bit like some of the Wenger fans who thought that after Arsenal, he will be immediately lapped up by PSG/ Barcelona/ Real. No signs of that as well.
Inter are the original muppets. In fact they separated from AC Milan because they wanted to sign those shiny foreign signings at a time when Milan wanted to sign Italian players only. Inter fans are among the most demanding supporters in Italy, they are as deluded as Liverpool fans and they just love a conspiracy theory.I think inter is a less pressure environment than Chelsea. He will get a squad and environment there who just follow his orders to a tee.
You're right, Mourinho was also mentioned as a reason why Mbappé or Neymar would't even consider joining MUFC.That is a fair point, I just seem to remember them being extremely adamant about it. That being associated with a positive, attacking team is extremely important for the image that PSG’s owners are trying to create for themselves.

@BBRBB is one I think.
Madrid senior players? How many of them were even around for Mourinho's tenure? Marcelo, Ramos, Modric and Benzema? I'm not sure why the latter two would have a problem with Mourinho, especially Benzema who Mourinho preferred to Higuain (I think).I think his next move would have been to say that he turned the Real job down, so ZZ was second choice, but the comments coming out of the Bernabeau about senior players in the Real dressing room said they didn't want him back and vetoed the move make that unlikely.
He might still try to do that though unless he decides to just keep quiet about it. Not really in his nature though.
