Jose Mourinho is reportedly eyeing the Arsenal job as he plots a return to football management.

The Portuguese has been out of work since being sacked by Manchester United in 2018, and is keen on returning to the Premier League.

Mourinho has had a number of job offers in recent months but has turned each of them down in search of the right club to manage.

Arsenal and Tottenham are two sides reportedly on his radar with managers Unai Emery and Mauricio Pochettino under pressure at their respective clubs.

Mourinho has won major trophies at Manchester United and Chelsea.

According to The Sun, he is eyeing a Premier League return in the hope of becoming the first manager to win major honours with three clubs from the same divison.

Both Arsenal and Spurs have been off the pace this season.

The Gunners recently threw away a lead against Crystal Palace, struggled to beat Vitoria and lost to Sheffield United.

Tottenham on the other hand were between 2-1 by Liverpool last time out, but have suffered a 3-0 defeat at the hands of Brighton and were embarrassed in a 7-2 defeat by Bayern Munich.

A football fan simply identified as James on Twitter has revealed why he thinks Pep Guardiola is the biggest fraud in football management history and also a racist.

The Arsenal supporter tweeted as shared below to explain his points, do you agree to his thoughts?

Firstly, Guardiola is an inheritance merchant. Let’s take a look at the players he inherited at each club.

Barca: Messi, Eto’o, Henry, Puyol, Iniesta, Xavi, Toure, Valdes

Bayern (treble winners): Robben, Ribery, Muller, Kroos, Schweinsteiger, Lahm, Neuer, Boateng, Mandzukic

https://twitter.com/ClockEndJames_/status/1185631831825231873?s=19

Man City (CL semi finalists): Silva, Aguero, Sterling, Be Bruyne, Kompany, Fernandinho

And yet he STILL manages to spend well over a BILLION between these clubs

Only Mourinho and Ancelotti have spent more money on transfers in their careers than Guardiola.

https://twitter.com/ClockEndJames_/status/1185631843661549575?s=19

...However JM and CA both been in management twice as long as Guardiola, and bought over 100 players each, whereas Guardiola has spent over €1.1 billion on 52 players, averaging at over €22M per player (compared to Mourinho €15.5M per player and Ancelotti €14M per player).

Conte and Guardiola arrived in the PL at the same time. One inherited a 10th placed team and the other had just reached the CL semis.

One spent £90M and the other £213M.

Who implemented them style quicker and won the league in record breaking fashion first?

After spending nine years as the Nigerian president, Yakubu Gowon, was overthrown in a bloodless coup on July 29th 1975 while he was away in Kampala, Uganda for an OAU Summit.

The coup was reportedly masterminded by a former Chief of Staff of the Nigerian Army, Gen. Hassan Katsina who was downgraded by Gowon.

Upon hearing the news, Gen. Gowon was seen standing off his seat and rushed into the arms of reporters who were trying to overwhelm him while on his way out but he responded that he had no comment.

Gowon, was also seen to have a discussion with the then Ugandan president Idi Amin, while on his way out.

Col. Namvan Garba, who made the announcement was regarded as one of his closest friends, and also the commander of the Elite, Guards Brigade, which had usually protected the chief of state in his Lagos headquarters.

A suspicious Gowon ahead of the situation had moved his family to London who he later joined afterwards.

38 year old Brigadier Murtala Mohammed was then named the Chief of State while Brig. O. Obasanjo was named Chief of Staff at Supreme Headquarters and Brig. T. Y. Danjuma named the Chief of the Army Staff.

Others are Commodore Michael Adelanwa, named as Chief of the Naval Staff; John Issa Duku, Chief of the Airy Staff, and Alhaji M. D. Yusufu was the Inspector General of the Police.

The endorsement comes on the back of Mouka's consistency in quality delivery and innovative mattress production which have characterized the brand’s market trajectory in Nigeria.

The endorsement also sealed with a ten year partnership for which an MoU was signed by both parties on Friday, 4th October 2019 at Mouka's corporate head office in Ikeja, Lagos.

The Chief Executive Officer of Mouka, Raymond Murphy posited that Mouka is Nigeria’s champion of healthy sleep, an attribute which its products have consistently delivered in its 60 years of operating in the mattress and bedding industry.
