Why aren't we hearing anymore the chavs gloating that they pinched the world class Pedro under united's nose and bought an overpriced kid instead?Falcao then Pedro. Even Moyes managed the same by goading them into buying Fabregas
LVG dropped the spaniard like a hot potato as soon as Martial was available. The chavs thought they were on to a winner here
Pedro must feel sick. Barca have an injury crisis and he's not even getting into Chelsea's match day squad. Credit to LVG for choosing not to sign him despite the apparent "low" transfer fee.Why aren't we hearing anymore the chavs gloating that they pinched the world class Pedro under united's nose and bought an overpriced kid instead?

Yep. From barca onto a struggling team which will be lucky to get into the Europa. He must be sick LVG pulled out of the deal for him.
I honestly think he was going for Pedro until Monaco got dumped out of the CL. The opening for martial was there and Pedro was no longer needed.
I think ESPN must read these boards
And their meltdown began in the 44th minute when Matic, already on a yellow card after fouling Zarate, cynically brought down Diafra Sakho to earn his marching orders

Replace fouling for diving and you could be talking about Suarez
Suarez did more nutmegs than dives. Fact.
Surely he will be fired this week. Bookies are now going 4/9 that he's the next manager to leave his post
This was us under Moyes.
Except Jose is actually a decent manager and better than anyone Chelsea have or will ever get.
I hope they sack him because it would be a stupid move. Even if he finished 17th, he's still likely to have them back up there the following season.
Come on Chavs, be the idiots we all know you are.

It will be interesting to see where he goes next. I imagine that, like any senior figure in business, his termination contract will include restrictive covenant clauses that limit (or forbid) where he can take up his next post - and if he breaches that agreement he will forfeit all or part of his financial settlement. I would imagine that his payoff would be conditional on him not taking up another post in the PL until at least the 2017/18 season - don't forget he takes with him knowledge of the Chavs transfer targets etc, which ceases to be of any value if he goes abroad or stays on gardening leave.
Restrictive clauses are only allowed in the UK (and EU) when reasonable. I doubt any court would hold it reasonable for Mourinho to be banned from working in the UK for the next 18 months. Chelsea would have to prove he has some confidential or commercially classified information which would give rivals an unfair advantage, which there clearly isn't as the new Chelsea coach will have new transfer targets, and knowledge of targets wouldn't be considered commercially confidential (else every gossip column would be sued every time they published a correct rumour).
The only way they could stop him working for someone else would be to keep paying his salary until his contract expired. Even then that would probably qualify him to sue for constructive dismissal, as they would be keeping him as manager but preventing him doing his job.

Doubt it, if anything Chelsea are in debted to Mourinho not the other way round, as Mourinho accepted a 20 million pay off, when he was entitled to a 40 million pay off with the length he had left on his contract.
So I'd imagine to get him to accept the lower amount he will be free to do as he pleases.
Not a bad life being a football manager, get sacked and you get the equivalent of winning a big rollover on the lottery. Then he can get another 8 million a year job somewhere else. It's better for them financially to fail every now and again, so its no suprise that so many do

Like LVG ........tick tock.....
Got to be one of the only jobs where you are rewarded for failure. What other jobs in the world can you get a huge pay off for being sacked its pure craziness. Anyone know if his payoff will reflect in FFP
Like United with Moyes, Chelsea have been ****ed by their players as much as their manager. Yes, mourinho must have taken leave of his senses on many occasions this season but like Moyes he just should not shoulder all the blame for the shambles at the club.
Some players simply downed tools and that's totally unacceptable for highly paid professionals

I think where he succeeded before was the loyalty of Terry, Carvalho, Lampard, Drogba (and later Cashley). Ofcourse, he had his dissenters back then but they were marginalised by that spine of players who had his backing and were the core of the club. Anyone who became marginalised was often shipped out. The problem this time is he didn't have many there he could rely on for that support. Terry spunked his load last season but has progressively himself become a pretty insignifcant figure at the club and disillusioned with Mourhino as well. No Lampard, no Drogba.
He should never have gone back. He's not a bad manager at all. But he's a circus show and a rotten stain on any club he touches while he's there. He's prone to washing the club's dirty linen in public and it's not worth the risk. We shouldn't touch him imo.
