Original post:

There's lots of speculation around Mourinho potentially being sacked.

Apparently it was just mentioned on Sky Sports in the UK and all of Thursday's papers in the UK have headlines with stories of this.

Obviously is still at the rumour stage, but with some of their recent performances, you can see how it *could* happen?

Thoughts?

My view - I think it would be hilarious.

I stand corrected!!  the plastic's are having a mini melt down!! 

you just beat me to it arse!!

cue to chant

Wahoo. I couldn't stand that self centred pr1ck anyway. The EPL is better off without him.

Had to quit before the Russian Mafia got him.

Life won't so entertaining without his daily/weekly quotes

Finally rid of that arrogant git.

Mourinho has gone -  thanks for the two Championships  and he  never lost a home league game. ChopperHarris2007-09-20 12:06:35

me thinks he'll be at QPR...

Always hated the prick, but I'll miss some of the classic lines he used to spout. Milky Pisswit2007-09-20 12:50:57

So who'll replace him then?

Here's a list for starters

1.Juande Ramos
2. Big 'Phil Scolari
3. Carlos Queiroz
4. Sven
5. Mark Hughes
6. Stuart Pearce
7. Big Ron
8. John Gregory
9. Mick McCarthy (please)!!!!

From Quotes of the Week

"The style of how we play is very important. But it is omelettes and eggs. No eggs - no omelettes! It depends on the quality of the eggs. In the supermarket you have class one, two or class three eggs and some are more expensive than others and some give you better omelettes. So when the class one eggs are in Waitrose and you cannot go there, you have a problem."

Jose Mourinho

Chelsea Statement:

Thu, 20th Sep 2007
Chelsea Football Club and Jos� Mourinho have agreed to part company today (Thursday) by mutual consent.

And a bag of cash (Chelsea FC may not have said that bit).

I hear Guus Hiddink is favourite.

Oh no, looks like he's short listed for the Millwall job.

never lost at home in the premier league thats a pretty good record  played 60 won 46 drew 14
and even his entire record is pretty good 185 games 124 won  40 draws & 21 loses

shame they didn't have the required "home grown talent" to fill all their champions  league spots
that is ridiculous


oh and Ubergunner   John Terry the single player you asked for

sorry mate i was on this big roll and couldn't help myself 


 why am i sticking up for him anyway
giddyup2007-09-20 15:51:06

yep 500 million pounds spent since 2003 you'd expect a record like that .

How can people hate him hes awesome!

he was always good for a laugh  

He was good, great character in the EPL...Knew it would ave to come sometime soon, he and the owner never been on good terms and he was forced to bring in Shevchenko and Ballack which he didn't want...thought he would leave at the end of season but I guess he couldn't wait that long.

It was always on the cards and I reckon he won't be at any club more than 3-4 years. He was great for Chelsea and the EPL but I can also understand why some hated him. On the bright side, teams always win their first game after a manager has been sacked and we've got united away.

[[/QUOTE] [/QUOTE]

I liked him, so what he was outspoken and very confident. 2 League titles back to back show he had something more to offer too. Terry might be the only youth-first team player but there's also Mancienne, Smith & Sahar that were in their reserves whom will be stars of the future.

Avram Grant, a close friend of Abramovich, named as replacement coach



Oh well, at least Abramovich will be able to run his team how he wants now. I foresee the steady demise of the club, back to their rightful position.

Evening gunman...

Fact: the Gooners are the only English owned team of the top four.

But more importantly -

Fact: it doesn't matter where players come from, this is a club competition, not an international.

Now back to laughing at Chelski.

[QUOTE=Arsenal]Fact: the Gooners are the only English owned team of the top four.

Not for much longer Gooner.  Isn't foreign cash in the process of taking over your club? 

There's some speculation around that but (at least for now) it seems that major shareholders will not sell. I couldn't care less where the owner was from (I certainly don't support England), although it seems this guy is a bit dodgy.

I think you're missing my point however - it doesn't matter where players/coaches/owners are from, it's a club game.
