Jose Mourinho

[C0YS]

By the noises in the media about Campos, maybe a condition was that Levy handed over the transfers to a DoF?

Mate Levy has always been pro-DOF it's Poch who made it a condition not to have one. With good reason, DOF generally has not particularly worked for us. However, Mou does like them so if they work together it shouldn´t be a problem.

I mean this lies in the catogory of Lo Celso was a loan just in case Poch left. Lo Celso was a loan so Betis could avoid paying more money to PSG, nothing more.

Another myth going about is this idea that we are going to be super tight in signing players, even though last window we were clearly willing to spend over 100 mil without sales. We need to work on this, and we won´t be spending crazy money but the money is there.

I wonder if Jose had to sign a Non Disclosure Form?

I don't know, but Non Disclosure and Ndombele sounds like a good midfield duo. Can he play as defensive midfielder?

I'm as critical as anybody when it comes with Levy's part to play in the demise of Poch but I will say this. Using Zahavi, Getting Jose, Looking at acquiring half the town of Lille. We're acting like grown ups.

 

[Sandro30]

Good. Its mostly all set. Now bring in Luis Campos and we’re golden.

Lilywhite Rose tweeted saying we've got him but has since deleted the tweet. Hopefully it was correct but was just jumping the gun.

Funny if Poch ends up at Real. They seem to have a habit of chasing our sacked managers. Ramos, AVB, now Poch.

 

[ernie78]

Yeah

I haven't seen it mentioned, but this change has obviously been in preparation for weeks. Otherwise, we wouldn't have had a signed-up new manager a matter of hours after the removal of his predecessor was announced. It appears that the club didn't act to remove Pochettino and his team until they were sure they had Mourinho fully on board.

That suggests a detailed, perhaps even lengthy negotiation, which in turn would surely include written terms and promises regarding recruitment of coaches and players.

,I always got the feeling from José’s interviews and his punditry that he had a club lined up or one in mind and I had a suspicion it was us. This has definitely been worked on for a while, he told Lyon that he had a club waiting for him so that’s a pretty big sign that he’s been waiting in the wings for a while.

Explains why he started giving Chelsea shit recently

I can't see Davies, Sissoko, Rose or Vertonghen being here too much longer. Davies isn't the sort of explosive full back we need, nor is Rose. Jan is on his way out anyway. Sissoko, for all his effort and his improvement since he's been here, perhaps isn't quite the quality Jose will be looking for.

Out of the young players I think Skipp and KWP are goners. Parrott and Sessegnon have a huge opportunity, as will Clarke. I don't know enough about Tanganga yet to guess either way.

Clarke is the most bizzare one. Apparently Poch wasnt keen on him. Sent back on loan and doesnt get into Leeds team. Now , his career at stake with Jose taking over

One thing I've learnt today is we can't be too harsh on the Americans pronunciation of Tottenham after what I've heard from the locals today

State is mostly the same except Lloris will probably leave sooner and maybe players like Foyth, Son, Lo Celso. Toby and Eriksen want to get paid and change scenery and we can't offer them both. Rose will run down his contract, Mourinho doesn't rate Aurier and he will be moved if anyone wants him. Wanyama can't pass medical so he will stay until his contract runs out, Dier will get final chance to show if he is still good enough or be sold (if it's true that Mourinho wants Matic then probably sold). Mourinho wants Dias so Vert is probably out of the picture too (unless he still doesn't rate Sanchez). Fernandes will replace Eriksen/Lo Celso.

 

[Sir Henry]

Call me old fashioned but if players sign for Jose that didnt for Poch that will make my blood boil, they play for the club not the manager

Clarke's situation hasn't changed really. Except that maybe Bielsa won't play him just to fuck with us.

I suppose the other hand is they'd been told by Pochettino he wanted them moved on.

Pronunciation of anything for that matter. Dude on a minute ago repeatedly referred to Poch as 'Pooch'.

Would you sign a new contract if you didn't like your boss? Just 'out of love for the company'?
