He owes no loyalty, to Chelsea at least. Would you turn down a job, and probably a pay rise, because the company offering it you was a rival company of another company that made you look a laughing stock, dragged your name through the mud and sacked you, not once, but twice? Thats not loyalty, thats insanity.
I don't think you made him look a laughing stock. I think he bought it on himself; or perhaps some of his players were to blame. Loyalty to the fans who still love him.
And always will. Like I said, he handled the Eva thing badly, but it was up to the Chelsea board and the Premier League to decide if there was any wrong doing there (imo there was, on Jose's end), and NOT for the players to decide that he should go and just basically write off the entire season, causing damage to our club, lost sponsors, lost CL money. They should have carried on with the jobs they were paid to do. It was a dirty ****ing thing to do, and something I will never forgive this crop of players for.
Exactly, its asking too much of him to expect him to root his entire family up and move abroad yet again, his daughter is at Uni in England I believe. If we (and by we I mean the club, not the fans) had showed him even an ounce of consideration this season, maybe he I could admit that this should have torn him up. But the way it went down, if it were me, I would almost WANT to dick Chelsea over out of spite.
His son is school age as well so he probably wants to stay in England. I get why some Chelsea fans would be unhappy about Mourinho becoming United manager but the fact is he was sacked by Chelsea twice so it's not really up to Chelsea to dictate who he should and should not work for.
Sooooo..... Jose apparently sabotaged his own season and legacy, deliberately started internal politics with the medical staff, made our first team players all suddenly turn crap....whilst......also hoping that LVG would under perform again this season, so that both clubs would sack their manager and so that United would appoint him....whilst also hoping United didn't just promote Giggs or win the race for Pep. Might start calling Jose 'Lady Macbeth' the way he's planned out this amazing scene. What utter, utter, utter nonsense!! Judas Luckchester Mikel
Absolutely. There is only so much loyalty one can demand in football. If a club doesn't want you anymore, you have to earn you living somewhere. It's why I and most Chelsea fans weren't annoyed when Frank went to City for a few months and ditto Cech. They are players and managers first and foremost, not fans.
I think it's a risky move for Jose though.... The league is very competitive at the moment. If Liverpool, Chelsea and United all can't get in the top 4, that tells you something. He'd have been better off with the guaranteed titles and C.L football on offer at PSG (and the money) and could have 'conquered' another league on top before maybe taking a national job in a few years. I sense more meltdowns coming; especially with Pep on the scene again.
100% Agree. Not bothered one iota that he has become United manager, other than the fact that they may do well with him in charge. But in terms of labelling him judas Judas was a betrayer, but if anyone got betrayed in this whole farce, it was Jose himself, by a certain few of our players.
