maqroll Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Golden parachute, a pundit gig in Lisbon, and then he'll be back managing Porto or PSG or Roma, etc. next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest av1 Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Glad to see the back of the idiot, hopefully he never gets another gig in England. The only downside is that the horrible rich kids from Chelsea will now start resembling a football team again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marka Ragnos Posted December 17, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted December 17, 2015 Never have been interested in or amused by Mou's antics. What a bore! It's always felt the whole phenom was a self-perpetuating circus by bandwagon elements of the London media. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 I do wonder which elite teams will pick him up. There's talk of him going back to Real Madrid but that's only if Perez stays as president, surely Zidane will be given that job very soon? Barca no chance. Inter Milan, no chance now Mancini's back and doing well. Juventus....Maybe. Man. City-Arsenal, nope. PSG- Maybe but I think managing in the French league would be too boring for him and in any case PSG are making a serious pitch for Ronaldo and him and Mourinho didn't get on so that wouldn't entice Ronnie. And David Luiz who is a very marketable player for them, he'd be off like a shot aswell. Man. United- I've always thought he'd be an ideal fit there tbh, Cut from the same cloth as Fergie in the likeability stakes and I'm sure after the last few years their fans wouldn't quite be turning up their noses at his style of football. Dosen't bring through the youth though. Probably too early for him to take the Portugal national job. I do think his next club will be slightly below what he's managed in terms of expectations and finance so interested to see how he gets on. It seems odd to say this 4 months after signing a new 4 year deal but Abramovich gave him every chance, we know what he's like at sacking managers when they lose two in a row. Chelsea's form is incredibly dire, lost more than half their games, 1 point off bottom 3 in the middle of December and to me it didn't look it was going to turn for them anytime soon.

villaglint Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 You missed out Munich which assuming Pep leaves might be a likely option. He could canter to the league and keep telling people he's special Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Ancelotti going to Munich for next season is pretty much a done deal with Pep leaving I think? Even if he dosen't go there he's the more friendly candidate for all those major clubs to consider given his record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Just reading McNumpty on the BBC, the one I hadn't considered is..........England. They flop at the Euros or even Woy just decides to retire and I have the feeling the timing would be right this time. He very nearly took it in 2007 it's worth remembering. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fergie never poked his rival assistant manager in the eye, call his rival a voyeur and a specialty in failure or ruin a referee career or accuse his physio of not knowing their job He is like the Joey Barton of management Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

O.K if he's to manage again in Premier league the only place I can see him turning up is Man. United if Van Gaal dosen't destroy them first as a credible force.

They certainly weren't the best team in europe the year they won CL, neither were Porto of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has, but as his final job at the end of his career. Could be now, I'm sure he doesn't need to keep going for the money. Maybe he could do the job from London where his family are settled and he always referred to as home. Edited December 18, 2015 by Genie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
