Sorry Ray s, i've agreed with many of your cricket­ points in the past, (if it's the same Ray s) but­ you're plainly miles off with this­ one....Jose's record is simply impeccable and would­ better ANYBODY currently managing in world football,­ (apart from AF's, obviously) he certainly shot from­ the hip and was arrogant to say the least, but i'd­ much rather that than listen to Benitez or David Moyes­ every week!! He WAS approached about the England job­ but turned it down, rest assured the F.A would have­ bitten his hand off somewhere near his elbow joint if­ he had shown the slightest interest, and rightly so.­ Also (as a Chelsea fan) can i correct you about his­ sacking by Abramovich, he was fired because of his­ side's style of play, NOT because of him speaking­ his mind, which he often did and Abramovich was well­ aware of his arrogance long before he employed­ him....What was it Muhammad Ali once said??­ "There's nothing wrong with having a big­ mouth, so long as you can back it up!!" The­ defence rests......

hey mr tony c, do u know anything about football? i­ dont think so because if u do u wouldnt say Jose­ Mourinho didnt win nothing at chelsea

I respect this fellow for his vision! wish him all the­ best in his future career.

Jose the best.

nowhere does it say he was actually offered it,none­ story from a braggard

No way he would have only put more Chelski muppets in­ the side!!
And any way what did he win at Chelski­ nothing!!

Sure, he considered it but then he realized that he­ wouldn't be getting a blanj cheque to sign­ whichever player he wants and manage the team. Mourinho­ can NEVER be a national coach of any country for that­ matter, he can only work with rich clubs.

Well,jose is a manager to rechon with,at his age,with­ lots of achievement?let count how many manager achieved­ what he had now.He's got the redical approach to­ his ability
.that is Jose.I need not compare him with­ the great ALEX and others.Am not his fan but i love all­ he brought to football in england.

Jose you are a great manager and a great character. one­ thing here is that people here hate the truth and­ challenge. don't mind those fools that don't­ know ur worth. Because of u premier leguea is­ interested, because of u billionairea want to buy club­ in England, because of you CHELSEA is one of the best,­ big and richest club in Europe. Thank God u did not­ take the England job. even though u will surely succeed­ if u had. We "CHelsea" fans are wishing u­ well and we are enjoying our foothball with our new­ coach. he is also great like u. Please do us proud and­ shame the enemies if suceess. Goodluck

Some people allow emotion or personal prejudice to­ overcome their sense of judgement. One fact still­ remain that Jose is the best irrespective of any­ personal differences anybody may have against him. I­ mean we have to call a spade a spade this guy may talk­ too much but he is good. May be some people should try­ to know that we are interested in results; we are less­ bother by how you get it. Jose has gotten results in­ Portugal and England. Like somebody said only a fool­ will bet against Jose not having results in Italy with­ Inter Milan. Whether he has big mouth or small mouth or­ tiny mouth his results and achievements speak for him.­ I wish him all the best of luck in Inter Milan.

Thankfully he only thought about it, and thankfully the­ FA did FA to persuade him. Can you imagin the size of­ his head if he had been put in charge, and the absolute­ drivel that would have come out of his mouth,­ constantly.I don't think I could have listened to­ all of his big-headed cenre of attraction rubbish.
The­ guy is all talk, he has met his match at Inter Milan­ and he can expect little sympathy there if they do not­ win their league.
If he had just got on with his job at­ Chelski, and kept his big mouth closed there is a­ chance that he might still have been there today, but­ the temptation was too great, motormouth but no brain.­ Still he made a few bob and at the end of the season he­ will retire somewhere for a little while before the big­ mouth opens up again.
Jose, if you thought a bit less­ of yourself and a bit more about your responsibilities­ you might be tolerated.

JOS said NO to the ENGLAND job.............thank­ god!!!!

Ssir Alex would be my choice once he leaves­ UTD!!

A miserable git but boy is he a hell of a­ MANAGER!!!

He is what ENGLAND needs!!

He'd sort­ out the MEN from the BOYS!!!!

ENGLAND has too many­ players who are soft!!

Sir Alex can spot players like­ that!!!!

I'm a LFC fan, so that says ALOT about­ Sir Alex!!!

HATE his guts but he is the MAN to sort­ ENGLAND out!!!!

JOSE WAS COOL

Oh boy!!3 MONTHS IN ITALY AND IS ALREADY CRYING !!HE­ KEEPS TALKING ABOUT HIMSELF HAS ALWAYS AND IS STARTING­ TO REALIZE IN ITALY YOU HAVE TO WIN AND SHUT UP!!I­ THINK THE LEAGUE IS MUCH BETTER WITHOUT THIS MOANRINHO­ WE JUST WANT TO WATCH GOOD FOOTBALL AND THATS IT!!IS­ PEOPLE LIKE HIM WHO DESTROYED OUR NATIONAL TEAM !!STAY­ THERE AND DONT COME BACK

He was successful at Porto because of alleged match­ fixing and alleged bribery of referees. He was­ 'successful' at chelsea because he had­ unlimited spending power (although to be honest,­ under-achieved given the limitless money).

I miss Jose! He would have been great with England, but­ he made a smart move staying in club football. He had­ some arrogance to him, but was very honest. I miss them­ famous press conferences!

Honest man, i like him as a manager...
