Jose Mourinho - SACKED

oh fudge .. the quick flip (after 19 years) dead horse raises it's head again ...

Mate, neither Joe Lewis or Levy is looking to sell, they could have done the rebuild for half the price (without the are rejuvenation, train station, additional details) and sold out for not much less asking price. You don't go all out on a flip, you manage the cost to the smallest margin, something we absolutely didn't do.

Nor would they pay off Poch and pay Jose the second highest salary in the league in attempt to raise the selling price?

The only way you can believe that is if you believe Levy is brick with money, and I don't think anyone in the world would buy that theory.

Mourinho is being told he has no money to spend

This is much cheaper than the full rebuild Poch wanted.

"Mourinho meanwhile laid out plans for recruitment, but insisted he sees Spurs as already having one of the best squads in the league.
This was especially persuasive for Levy. He similarly thinks his club have the third best squad in the league, which was one other reason he grew tired of Mauricio Pochettino’s complaints and appeals for a rebuild. "

If we have money to spend, the smart thing would obviously be to tell everyone about it.

Oh ffs Levy never does business in January. Why would he start now?
Mourinho was in no position to come and demand stuff.
The last job he was linked to was Lyon.
It isn't 2005 anymore.
 
Interesting whether Jose will give KWP and even Aurier a chance now. They have 6 weeks really and if one or more of them don’t step up, we’ll probably need to shuffle someone out to raise funds for a new right back.

I’m also intrigued by what will happen with Hugo. He’s been quoted previously saying he’s linked to Spurs because of Poch. I do wonder if Jose will tolerate some of Hugo’s more ‘extravagant’ moments anyway, so there might be a new keeper needed one way or the other. Gazza has done well, so it might be time to shuffle there. (Although I’d be happy for Hugo to be onboard with the change tbh and think he offers a lot to the squad in general - being the current World Cup winning captain)

Above not withstanding, what is going to happen now with the 3 Ajax lads!!! I cannot wait on that one!!
 
As someone on twitter said, Poch thought us how to dare. Hopefully José can teach us how to do.
I’m hoping he walked in, slapped his 25 winners medals on the table, and went “right lads, how’d ya fancy a slice of these apples then?!!!”

We got to the Champions League final last year with a weaker squad than this one, but lost as we had no winners ‘meteorology’.

We’ve fixed that now. So go win it again this year big man.
 
I can't see Aurier or Rose lasting long unless they have a significant improvement in form. I'd have them down as joint favourites for the first player he criticises in public.
Imagine if he starts pulling a Luke Shaw on poor maligned KWP :D

We’ll need to call Childline!!!
 
Huge respect for Poch and all he has done for the club, and top gent. That decision has now been made and we have parted ways. I will follow him and his career and wish him all the very best ..unless he does anything silly....
As for Jose, now the decision on Poch has been made, I’m pleased he’s the guy and was my first choice for all the obvious reasons. For me, these out way the risks, again, all been discussed and heavily debated already.
He looks as happy as fck, and I was genuinely concerned the filth down the road would snap him up.
COYS
 
The reason we dumped Poch like we have is to get José this time before the window go decide what and who he wants IMO

Two signings would be a lot of business for January. I still think that the priority will be moving players on.
 
Since people seem to think that it was two naïve first timers making a deal

Discussions centred around the present squad, the style of play Mourinho would adopt and potential transfer budgets. We understand while Jose believes the squad is strong, it is under-achieving and has the potential to be successful. Funds will be made available if deemed necessary.

Levy recently told the Trust that was indeed the case. We still needs Outs before we can have more Ins.
 
Read an opinion online that figured Sanchez, Aurier & Eriksen would be most likely not to see game time with Jose.

I stopped reading when it said he wanted to build another dynasty.
