The gospel... in Saffa's very own words. The shortlist was: Jose Mourinho, Carlo Ancelotti, Jurgen Klopp, Louis van Gaal and Pep. Jose chose Chelsea over United , Carlo, Jurgen, and LVG weren't coming either (yet). And Pep refused to return Saffa's calls!!! "‘It became apparent that Jose Mourinho had given his word to Roman Abramovich that he would return to Chelsea and that Carlo Ancelotti would succeed him at Real Madrid. We also knew Jurgen Klopp was happy at Borussia Dortmund and would be signing a new contract. Louis van Gaal had undertaken to lead the Dutch attempt to win the 2014 World Cup." "I admired [Pep] greatly," Ferguson said after meeting him in New York in 2012. "I asked Pep to phone me before he accepted an offer from another club but he didn't and wound up joining Bayern Munich in July 2013." Very disrespectful of Pep. At least Jose told Saffa himself, he would not be joining United
matth has already started a thread about this. Couldn't you have cut and pasted your story into that one Deidre?
Why Chelsea ended up with a nutter. Having hired almost every living football manager in the past 10 years Chelsea owner, Royston Abrahams , decided to start re hiring previously disgraced/sacked managers. It is estimated Claudio Ranieri, Chelsea's most important manager ever, will take over once current manager, Joey Morningo is sacked, again.
Roman will now get an excuse to get rid of preening Maureen: unsuccessful as well as boring football. Mind you since their fans do not know much about football according to Maureen herself, their fans wouldn't know any better
According to Maureen in her book, the chav fan wouldn't recognise good football even it hit him between the eyes
It's a very odd relationship between Mourinho and the Chelsea fans. They love him and he loathes them!
Started the most successful period in your history of all course. All non Chelsea fans know Claudio is your true greatest manager. Mourinho just got lucky, for a short, some may say 3 year, period.
Most Chelsea fans would actually give that accolade to Hoddle, who was the true catalyst for the sequence of events that followed. Your WUM, is both poor and frankly bollox. A perfect storm of nonsense.
You were irrelevant in 2002 pal. Anyone who has told you otherwise has lied to you and led you down this path of delusion. Chelsea were founded in 2003 and Ranieri played a huge part before being disgracefully tossed aside for the next shiny thing.
This is the thing about plastic glory hunters, they only think clubs who win things are 'relevant'. It's easy to just pick the best team and lord it over everyone else. That wouldn't be you now would it??
