How long will it take Abra to sack Mou this time?

i have seen this movie before, old friends reunited, everything seems to be working well finally, they find common ground for the first couple of months on everything, fans telling you he will be the SAF of Chelsea, 10 years manager... and then the ugly face of reality pops up, and everything turns to shet.

Mou just signed a 4 year deal at chelsea, any chance he will finish that deal?

None. His act starts getting old around the 2 year mark and, in year 3, he has to change ship because he knows it's crumbling.

When you're manipulative and a prick... and your footy style is ugly as hell, you don't get to hang around very long.

Wow sour grapes much? You guys should step back and read what you're posting

we posting that he is unlikely to finish his contract, which has never happened lol, how is that sour?

I love you guys, you're my bros but you two sound like two teenage girls atm.

Mou is gone so whatever happens to him is of no concern to me but you guys seem to have some kind of vendetta, you WANT him to fail and that just seems petty to me.

Will flop IMO, Chelsea don't have the sort of players that fit his style of management.

Unless of course he changes the make up of the squad in one window, but that seems unlikely.

this is the general section broski

2 season manager will leave at the end of the 2nd season or sometime during his 3rd year.

Mou leaving in 3 years is a no brainer lool

He is a manager who is unable to build a long term system.He will definitely complete 2 years,rest depends on teams result and Abramobtch.

agree.. Chavski don't have the players that suit his style, however, I don't think he'll flop

He wont flop, but other squads will outperform his and he will be out in the second year when Abra runs out of patience.

Not petty. I seriously disliked him before Madrid because i thought he was a disgrace to the game. Tolerated him for a short while at Madrid... and now i'm back to hating his guts. Don't have anything against Chelsea or its players. But i am in no way going to wish fraudinho well.

It's not only about his [or Abramovich's] willingness to stay for awhile, but his ability to. His flash-in-the-pan motivational tactics become ineffective after about the second or third season; and, as he has no answer or alternative methods to remedy it, it invariably spells his end. His famed "us against everyone" mentality works well in the short term but can only last so long before it becomes stale to the players and that, for me, is the biggest flaw in his managerial schtick.

Also, as Mole said, there is still the issue that has, up to this point, managed to go almost universally unmentioned in the mainstream concerning the fact that his style and philosophy is completely at odds with the squad the club have built (which makes this appointment all the more nonplussing). His biggest successes throughout his career be it his back-to-back titles at CFC to his 2 European Cup wins to his treble at Inter, etc., have come on the back of a very practical, efficient style of football, and Chelsea just don't have the players to do that. The club, seemingly at the personal directive of the owner, have spent several years and well into 9-figures building a squad to ultimately play a certain way, only to hire a manager who plays the exact opposite way to that.

For these reasons - although the last thing I want is another managerial change, and although I certainly don't want to see him fail even if his tenure will unavoidably be short-term at best - I'd be surprised if he lasted half that contract.

I don't know, but I think Mourinho will fail at Chelsea.

I give it 6 months

This.
Abra will expect wonders, and Mou will "only" deliver a job well and proficiently done.

He's got the squad to challenge for the EPL title, might even edge Yanited now that SAF is gone, and will reach the UCL semis, but bar any luck they just don't got the firepower to get past any of Real, Barca, Juve, Bayern or Dortmund imho, great as they may be. Turning Chelsea into world beaters will take more than two seasons.

I even think Mou might be able to do it, I just doubt Abra has the patience for it.

When his contract expires 2-3 years max

New thread topic

Just How Much Money Will Mourinho Spend/Waste Before He Leaves Chelsea This Time?

the managers'rotations rarely exceed 2 to 3 years these days.

2 years max

Great post

2 years, Chelsea cant handle the egos of the Roman and Jose for too long.

Dat Mou hate.

While I agree with what Shed said, being the optimist I am and having listened to Jose's full press conference, He seem to have done his travel, now he wants to settle down and enjoy his job. If he can do that. I can see him lasting.

If he can't, then I don't know how long he will last but I believe in him.

it's not hate, it's observation... as the shed dude said, mourinho being a two year manager is a fact, then his "us against them" shtick stops working and he's not tactically good enough to consistently outsmart... well, any top manager really

plus he's always running his mouth about how [his current club] is the best in the world and his dream to be there and he'll stay there forever and blah blah blah... did it with chelsea during the first time, did it at inter, did it (briefly lol) at madrid

I can't imagine Chelsea not winning the next two PL.

United has lost Ferguson, City isn't that good, Arsenal won't spend, Tottenham can't rivalize.
