I don't think he would do it. He has been in that position before at Chelsea, a luantic with unlimited wealth expecting everyone to dance to his tune.
I would like to think that Jose would be up for more of a challenge.

He's had a challenge at Inter as he wasn't brought in to win the league, but to improve them in the CL. If they get embarrassed as they did last year, his position might be questioned and he might consider returning to safer grounds.

Can't see Inter beating Chelsea. I do think they have a better chance now with Eto'o in the side. He is a scorer of important goals and an improvement on Zlatan as far as the CL goes.

Mourhino was talking about 'building an empire' in the last six months, it has to be City. W haven't a pot to piss in.
So should I want us NOT to finish in the top 4 then? At least that way City might keep Mancini and we'd have a chance of getting Mourinho. Or maybe not...
I have had that conversation with friends. Finish 5th, City hire Mancini and we get Mourhino. Would you take it?

I recon Mancini will get the boot regardless of 4th spot.
More worrying is, if Benitez does leave / gets axed in the summer - who would we get in now that the unfancied Hiddink and Maureen are seemingly ruled out?

Is that a "perhaps I want Rafa to stay after all" post?

No, it's a "I'm pooping my pants because I might be getting half of what I wished for" post.

As if Mourniho would come to a team competing in the Europa Cup for the second year in a row with no funds to rectify the situation. We'd have more chance of getting him if we finished fourth and encouraged Benitez to find another job.
As for the hypothetical question - no i wouldn't. As much as I rate Mourniho, I'd really fear for our future if we didn't make the CL.

If Mourinho goes to City & Rafa goes I will be quite pissed off.
Personally, I think Mourinho would jump at the chance to manage us irrespective of money available. He likes us, we have a core of good players, others would want to play for him and he'd love to get one over on Benitez.
Don't think it will happen. He will be offered other jobs before we're looking for a new Manager.

I've got this feeling he'd be happy to do something 'woah controversial' like not take on a job with fucking billions to spend.
There's something about his cuntish ego that makes me think he'd want to prove to everyone he's capable of managing without an endless budget.
Still, I hope to fuck he doesn't end up managing us, the graceless whopper.

Agree with the first two lines.
Personally the whole thing makes me a bit sick. Inter sack their manager despite winning the league countless of occasions, he moves onto Man City and is under immediate pressure to get fourth, now with the added risk of being replaced unless he fails. All the while his replacement at Inter, Jose Mourinho - arguably the most sought after manager in world football - is now also under pressure despite winning the league.
Football is a total mess and it only has itself to blame.

I think he will end up at Real Madrid but to be honest id love him here. Cos he wins stuff.
Of course he's a big headed twat but away from the cameras hes meant to a very nice fella.
His assistant at Chelsea who ran his laundry around and picked his kids up etc is a scouse lad actually and he cant speak highly enough of him.

6 years is more than enough.
I want re-haul rather than a spring clean.

Seriously? That's a new perspective. What did he say about him?

He's on €11 million a year after tax. Any chance of him taking a big paycut for joining us?

Not a big one, no, but I reckon there's a chance he'd come if the drop wasn't very big. He admires LFC, he'd LOVE to put one over on Rafa and he's not enjoying himself in Italy nearly as much as he did in the Prem.
I accept the club would have to narrow that gap a fair bit. I don't think they'd necessarily have to close it altogether though.

The salary is one factor.
Sacking Benitez is another (cost factor).
The fact that Mourinho would want a guarantee of major funds to spend (without those funds being generated by selling our best players) to rebuild the poor squad we have is another factor.
It's not really very likely is it?
