All jokes aside, seriously where could Mourinho go next. I don't think the Germans would touch him. I think he's definitely used up all his credit in England too. Is one of the Portuguese big 3 his only option now...or perhaps a national team?

Him winning leagues at the time probably helped!
Because the manager is thier boss?
Anyway maybe you’re right, I just know I’d hate to work in an industry, already rife with media scrutiny and sensationalism, where your fellow professionals constantly try throw you under the bus.
I forgot who it was but no surprise if it was him.
It did but that's an other issue with media. They will look away from foul behaviors when it concerns someone successful.
And one more employee of the club. Just because he was manager doesn't mean players shouldn't talk back. Anyways it's not as if Pogba went on a rant, he was calm and talked about Jose's post match comments jokingly.
Ironically, I seem to remember that many fans wants and wanted managers to speak out against the board.
Option A: Pogba said it for the same reasons Mourinho does these things - “mind games”.
Option B: Pogba said it for the same reasons Mourinho does these things - create media hype and draw attention.
Imaginary option: Mourinho did it for results, Pogba for vanity.
Yeah that's a very good point.
International football...maybe.
For me, he's done. Not so much his tactics, but more his man-management style. Perhaps international football would suit it more, as you obviously don't get as much time with the players, and maybe that could work in his favour. Although I'm not sure if that's true, to be honest. I'm saying that because I just can't see what club would have him.
I think I he will take the same sort of career path as Sven. He will go to anyone who offers him money.
There are few clubs around Europe I guess. In England, someone mentioned already, clubs like Everton/Newcastle/West Ham/Wolves (in the future, not now). Valencia in Spain maybe, Roma in Italy (think Inter wouldn't risk with him, maybe few years ago but not anymore), Porto.. Of course there's option of managing national team but I think that would be boring to him.
The poll on here was very in favour of him winning things with them. I guess he still might in fairness.
Yeah there are plenty of clubs that would probably go for him but a lot of those clubs would be 'beneath' him unless he reassessed his own ego and self-worth. I couldn't see him going to a club that had a very small chance of winning trophies or playing in Europe.
Who the hell thought that? Must have been some of his cultists and Spurs fans. Surely nobody else thought that he could magically win the League or something like that.
A massive section of this forum thought it was a genius move to replace the manager who's never won anything (Poch) with the mastermind Mourinho.
I thought they wouldn't be good enough for the top four, but then revised that prediction in November.
They were never going to win the league. Too dependent on Kane, Son's xG was ridiculous and couldn't be sustained. I thought the Thursday-Sunday routine would finish them off so it's funny to look back at Glaston's comments about how they were in with a chance.
Mourinho doesn't have the personnel to buy into his style. I remember his Chelsea went behind and down to ten against West Ham, he made a sub and they powered to a 4-1 win. He had players who could manage themselves, not the case now.
Think only possibles are Atletico Madrid (if Simeone ever leaves). Got that underdog mentality Mourinho craves and he'd be motivated to stick one on Real Madrid and Barca and perhaps a sentimental return to Inter Milan as Conte won't stay there for that much longer although his second spell won't be anywhere near as good as his first one so probably like Chelsea.
He's said himself he couldn't see himself managing mid table team with project although ironically he's turning Spurs into that now all within 18 months.
There would be more sympathy for him if he didn't slaughter half of football people when he was actually winning stuff.
Only have to see some of the stuff he came out with against OGS just last week.Ancelotti has won as many big titles as Mourinho pretty much and isn't in great form at Everton himself but everyone knows he's a complete gentleman regarding others in football so will get a much fairer press and pundit coverage even if he loses his job in next year.
Nah they changed it. League cup winners go into europa conference league unless they finisher higher in league so Spurs need to finish 5th or 6th to make europa.
So will the translator have to wait for Ronaldo to retire before he gets the Portugal National Manager job?
I think he is done as a Manager anywhere apart from Italy or PSG. I'm amazed he never went up for the PSG job, but maybe he realised that you don't feck about with those owners without disappearing into a bathroom and never returning!

PSG didn't want him outside of the very first appointment that Ancelotti eventually took.
What?!? Have you just made that up?
They've actually called it that!

Really need to rename this or his other threads as leading them into the conference league!
It also dosen't have any qualification route for CL so Spurs would be better off losing the final and finishing 6th than winning the league cup.
No he did not. I read it on rawk I thought they were joking, when Liverpool was losing games at home, then I checked. It is new UEFA competition!What?!? Have you just made that up?

It reminded me of the Intertoto Cup.
I don't see how Spurs can afford to sack him now. He's guaranteed £30 million from them whether they sack him or keep him for 2 more years. On top of that you need to get someone who's an improvement on him and pay either a big buy out or pick up an unemployed manager which gives you very limited options. I suppose Sarri is free. If they can get Nagelsmann then fair play too. But if you can't pick one of those I don't see anyone affordable who they could get. I doubt Allegri would take either the Spurs or Arsenal jobs.
Objectivitively he hasn't taken them backwards since he joined. They were 14th when he took over. They were 6th by the end of the season and 7th now. He's only had 18 months in the job and he's taken them to a cup final in his first full season.

Jose and Spurs in the conference league? How very fitting.
Spurs are fukked if they keep Jose or if they sack Jose. Justice for the prick Levy but I do feel badly for club supporters, who really believed they had put clubs like West Ham and Everton in the rear view mirror.
We were regulars back in the day for that in the early 2000s. Actually had some decent teams, can remember likes of Celta Vigo and Stuttgart in it, perhaps even Juventus one year when they finished about 7th in Serie A?

Congrats on getting Spurs European football. Still a footballing genius.
Been sacked according to journalist for Telegraph
Ornstein too now
Holy shit, it's all kicking off!
Pogcurse
Wow, Spurs in damage control.
And now his watch is ended.
Spurs with a strong early contender for 'best use of the Super League money'
Okay, someone has to dig up some quotes from the acolytes after the 6-1
