Nothing more than a hunch.  But I can feel it.   Allegri hasn't won on the European stage and who else is there really once we passed on Conte.

Edit: Mou feels it too apparently based on his Marca interview today

Honestly sports, if Florentino appoints this disastrous joke for a manager, it'll be the final nail in the coffin as far as I'm concerned.

He hasn't been exactly that great in recent years with the way he has been managing the club anyway, but appointing Mourinho would be unforgivable.

@Bill, do you guys have anyone capable of dethroning him in the next elections? I'm not calling for his head now, but if he appoints Mourinho, you guys should really think about sending his cheap ass to the moon.

I'd rather see Benitez on the bench. that's how much i hate Mou.

Holy guacamole! The dude has already started preparing us for his return  
Mourinho: I would have no problem returning to Real Madrid. [Marca]

The Europa League is coming boys

Wait, wait, wait, there's more!

Mourinho wrote:
Consequently, I would have no problem at all returning to Real Madrid, a club whose structure and ambitions are still in place.

It makes you very proud to know that a club you have already managed wants you back. I like Spain, but I do not choose a club purely based on its country's climate.

The interest has been confirmed! Sit back and enjoy the ride. Start your bets on who's going to kill himself first, me or hala.

Fck we're so fecked

Hope he comes together with Alonso if he comes

NOBODY will come to Real Madrid if Mou gets appointed. We can all kiss the Neymar, Mbappe, Hazard or anyone with a shred of creative talent goodbye.

Hazard doesn't mind playing for him though. If I'm not mistaken, I think Hazard said not too long ago that he would love to work with Mourinho again. But don't take my word for it, make a quick google search to be certain because I'm honestly not entirely sure.

As for Neymar and Mbappé, I think we have a snowball's chance in hell of getting them.

he's coming home,
he's coming home,
he's coming,
jose's coming home
Everyone knows this guys a bore,
They've seen this cnut before,
They just know,
They're so sure,
That jose's Gonna throw it away,
Gonna fuck it away,
But flo thinks he can play,
'Cause I remember
man u playing dirt,
chelsea fans still screaming,
The next 3 years of hurt,
norway nick still dreaming.

he's coming home,
he's coming home,
he's coming,
jose's coming home

Perez is gonna wait and see if the fans want back Jose. If he gets a hint of approval, consider him our new manager. If the fans are against it, he won't risk it. Bet Marca or AS would release a poll asking fans if they want Jose back.

And I bet Barca fans are gonna do their very best to click yes lol.

Thankfully there is no information from the Madrid media's which can substantiate this speculation.

This morning Marca assistant manager commented that the Mourinho is not on the cards, link

Also keep in mind Mourinho benefits more from being linked to us in the media than us with him, specially after his disasterclass of a job at United.

@Unique, Mourinho won trophies in Madrid, even if that's the least favorable appointment, he will find ways to win silverware. I don't suppose you know what's that like #bottlers

lmao @doc, when has flo waited to see what fans want ever? bale was whistled during his presentation , or okay maybe not whistled, but the crowd was yelling ozil's name, and flo put his finger to his lips asking them to be quiet and listen to the presentation

at this stage nobody knows, the club is probably still weighing out options, all this is speculation. i keep telling you folks, when it comes to these kind of rumors, never trust the footballing media (or spanish related media), they know as much as we do

and finally, aren't we all overreacting a little bit? for me, i want a coach florentino respects. one he respects enough to work with in building a project. not a schoolboy or a stooge....unrelated to this, i respect the way lope has handled the situation in the interviews i've been hearing from him lately.

oh and hala there are assumptions (that's what i call la liga media "news" these days) being thrown out there pertaining to raul, especially with his new promotion. thought you might be interested in that.

the path that leads to Jose might actually be a simple one if you think about it.
-Levy asks for 40+ millions to release Pochettino
-Allegri keeps his job at Juve
-Low stays with Germany
-Klopp stays put

and that's it, Mou is next name in line. Perez wont risk a coach with no pedigree right now, and it doesnt get much better than this outside of Pep, Zidane, and Carlo.

That's what I mean Nick... if Allegri becomes available, he has a chance. But even then, it's 50/50 with Mou imo. So it's not even a longshot.

ffs I'm giddy like a little schoolgirl

whilst i agree with everyone's sentiments, i don't see a mou appointment to be as bad as everyone makes it. situations are different, and i don't think the idea now is to restore some order in the dressing room, but to revamp the dressing room. i supported iker when the mou thing was happening , but i would take him over any stooge or schoolboy coach who has no idea of what or who they want

the other coaching names that we are associated with are all good coaches, but how much does flo respect them? that, to me matters a lot. and have they done their homework on what a team like ours needs. this man has been out of a job for months, he has ample time to reflect, and we have won 4 ucls since his exit. as mrnick pointed out, we have the upper hand

for some reason, i'm very open minded to the idea....to be honest, i don't understand why i am , but that's just it

It's not a 50/50 proposition when it's contingent on at least 3-4 other managers saying no though

it's still an unlikely hiring, because of how he left, and how recent in time it is. You still have key players in the squad like Ramos whom he seriously beefed with, and you saw how Ramos sinked Conte.

Allegri and Pochettino are still 1a and 1b, and i think Perez would fully explore those options

@Tito

Never but in this particular case, I think he'll wait on it. The fans hasn't turned on him for Ronaldo sale, hiring a man who no one likes isn't gonna sit well. That's my take anyway.

Humm, there are a lot of Madrid fans who love Mourinho Doc, like a lot. Many who loved his us against the world rhetoric and many who go to the Bernabeu. If he ends up coming back, you will see almost a religious like supports from fans for him. just saying...

If Mourinho comes back i will embrace the lunacy by taking a heel turn HBK 2005 style.

Allegri rejected us last summer. I can't see why he would change his mind 12 months later, especially when the project at Juve is really attractive and he's winning major trophies like candy over there.

Appointing Mourinho would be an unforgivable mistake and the socios should make sure that Florentino loses the next elections if he brings him. A man who doesn't invest in the squad and hire shit managers should not be allowed to stay at the helm.

Dude is rapidly turning into another Calderon.

You for real? There are Madrid fans that love him still. Jeez. Well, I already accept he might end up here so whatever. Season is already a shit show, why not make it a proper circus.
