Jose Mourinho Sacked As Chelsea Manager by Brytawon(m): 3:50pm On Dec 17, 2015
Chelsea have sacked manager Jose Mourinho
seven months after he led them to the Premier
League title.

The 52-year-old Portuguese had been in his
second spell at the club, taking charge in June
2013.

Chelsea finished eight points clear last season
and also won the League Cup, but have
endured a terrible start to their defence, losing
nine of their 16 league games so far.
Mourinho's final match was Monday's 2-1
defeat at leaders Leicester City.

Pep Guardiola, Guus Hiddink, Brendan Rodgers
and Juande Ramos have all been touted as
possible successors.

2005/06 38 29 4 5 76.32
2006/07 38 24 11 3 63.16
2007/08 6 3 2 1 50
2013/14 38 25 7 6 65.79
2014/15 38 26 9 3 68.42
2015/16 16 4 3 9 25

Mourinho's legacy
He leaves with Chelsea just a point off the
relegation zone and 20 points behind Leicester.
Champions League qualification via one of the
top four spots in the Premier League looks
almost impossible.

However, the Blues are through to the last 16
of European football's biggest club competition,
where they will face French champions Paris
St-Germain in February and March.

Mourinho only signed a new four-year contract
on 7 August and is Chelsea's most successful
manager.

He won three Premier League titles, two of
those in his first spell between 2004 and 2007.
The Portuguese has also won the FA Cup, in
2007, and the League Cup three times - in
2005, 2007 and 2015.

Troubles on and off the pitch.
It has not only gone wrong in the Premier
League for Mourinho, he has also had his
issues off the pitch.

A 2-2 draw with Swansea on 8 August was
overshadowed by a fallout with his medical
team, in particular club doctor Eva Carneiro.
Carneiro had her role downgraded after
Mourinho said his medical staff were "naive"
for running onto the pitch to treat attacking
midfielder Eden Hazard.

She eventually left on 22 September and is
now taking legal action against Mourinho and
the Blues.

Mourinho also received a suspended stadium
ban and £50,000 fine for claiming referees
were "afraid" to award his team penalties in a
3-1 home loss to Southampton in October.
He subsequently had to serve a one-match
stadium ban and pay a £40,000 fine for his
behaviour during a 2-1 defeat by West Ham,
when he spoke to referee Jon Moss at half-
time.

What now for Mourinho?
It is unlikely he will be out of management for
long, given his record of success at Chelsea
and other top European clubs.

He guided Porto and Inter Milan to Champions
League glory in 2004 and 2010 respectively,
then led Real Madrid to the Spanish La Liga
title in 2012.
At 52, he is still some way from retirement age,
but he has expressed a wish to coach the
English and Portuguese national sides at some
stage in his career.

In fact, he claimed he turned down the chance
to become England boss when Steve McClaren
was sacked in 2007.

Mourinho has a proven track record of bringing
success over the short-term but doubts will
remain over his ability to build a dynasty.
Will that make his candidature less appealing to
the kind of club he is used to managing, such
as German giants Bayern Munich, rising French
stars Paris St-Germain or Premier League duo
Manchester United or Manchester City?

What now for Chelsea?
The Blues may be struggling at the wrong end
of the Premier League table, but they are still
in the Champions League and both domestic
cups, while achieving European qualification is
not impossible.

The key for any new manager is improving the
morale of a talented squad that has
underachieved this season.

Players such as Hazard, Diego Costa, Willian,
and Oscar were key to Chelsea winning the
league title but performances have fallen well
below the heights they reached last year.
After the 2-1 defeat by Leicester Mourinho said
he felt his "work was betrayed" by his players,
and midfielder Cesc Fabregas has said it is
time for everyone to step up.

"If you are a big player and paid like a big
player, you must play like a big player and
behave like a big player," said the Spain
international.

The Law of karma has dealt badly with Mourinho this season.
I mean, calling a fellow coach a Specialist in failure is the height of haughtiness.Worst still, the manner with which he made Eva Caneiro to leave Chelsea was repugnant.Wetin??Na only you??

Abramovich will surely regret this decision. Which coach does he think can bring Chelsea to champions league football next season?
Re: Jose Mourinho Sacked As Chelsea Manager by UncleJudax(m): 4:14pm On Dec 17, 2015
Blizzy9ja:
But he's the best man for the job
The results says otherwise. He is a good coach, with super ego problem.

After attacking the players on the back of the Leicester loss, I knew he wasn't gonna make it.
I wish he stayed though. Clearly, Abramovich thought differently.

Tscuss, Mourihno!
