Might be a few Chelsea players on the end of some backlash after this. Just had a quick gander on a couple of Chelsea forums and there's a fair bit of:
going on.
Mourinho sacked
- Thread starter SilentWitness
- Start date
I imagine there will be a number of lying through their teeth statements from the players tomorrow. It's a thankless task managing Chelsea, the players rule the roost. Someone needs to get rid of JT far too much power.
We're still doing a hell of a lot better than Chelsea. We play them on the 28th. No doubt the players will play for the new manager at least from the start, as always happens. I would have liked us to have a go at tailspin Chelsea whilst it lasted.
Yeah it'd be nice to see our players show a little bit of desire and commitment for a change they don't look arsed under LVG. I think LVG has lost all our team now much like what happened when moyes was here.
I don't think this is a smart move by chelsea he had the majority of fans backing him still. It's not as if there's better managers around now, maybe ancelotti will go back to them.
good decision. two months too late to save the season.
I just have this weird feeling City are going to end up with Guardiola and we're going to end up with Mourinho, and the rivalry's going to be as fierce as Madrid, Barca.
Ranieri to return to Chelsea along with the GOAT Jamie Vardy.
Poor Mata must be shitting himself.
Bet he wishes he had never seen Diego Costa. The players must be really proud of themselves.
Eamon Dunphy spouting on the radio here that he knows an inside story but can't reveal it. All he said was it wasn't to do with football, players "misbehaved" and a woman was involved 
That's true and it's why he's been sacked. His success at Chelsea will explain the difference in how fans felt about them though. He earned some loyalty that Van Gaal hasnt. Abramovich was probably also wary of making the same mistake he did before. In the end it still wasn't enough though. As far as a unified dressing room at Utd goes I'm not sure how you know that. We don't play like a happy team and haven't for a long time.
The difference; the players would be sent to a B team and Ferguson would stay, that would be a message to every player.
Stop being daft. Mourinho has just won the league and is your most successful manager of all time.
It's hardly even close to the same thing.
Fergie wouldn't lose the dressing room
The final ignominy of player power! No fan of Chelsea but what an absurd way to treat a top manager. Players are now so untouchable it's pathetic. They're ruining the English game and it's time the FA and Players association got a grip.
Roman Calderon believes he'll be Madrid's next manager.
Yeah, those players he signed that everyone was saying were great signings last season really turned out to bite him in the ass. He probably really regrets going for the likes of Fabregas and Diego Costa... Or even for building Hazard up so much last season.
Starting to warm to idea of Mourinho becoming United manager in the summer. He's going to have a boulder on his shoulder in his next job, we just have to make sure we sack him before we get to the 3rd season.
Oh damn they actually sacked him.
I hope we steer well clear.
I hope we steer well clear.
@Sly any leak in the Portuguese press about the player from Chelsea who leaked to Porto their formation? That would be interesting to know who's the cnut and he really deserved to be banned from football. But for another side I like to see Mourinho failing
What? I never heard anything about that story. That would explain why an inept manager like Lopetegui won that game.
Calderon also believed Ronaldo would return to us the last 4 years.
pep next boss I wonder ?
Not that desperate, not like he plays more attractive football or anything.
So Ronaldo moving in January?
Please let it be Juande Ramos.
Was a matter if time. Must have pocketed a huge sum btw
It has to be a worry that players can just decide not to perform to get rid of a manager and the club folds.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HA
HA
No doubt you are but it appears things aren´t looking good for you guys either. I´m not really convinced with Hiddink but i suppose players will actually make an effort for him.
I don't understand why United's board didn't get Ancelotti, for me he's better than Pep.
Have we ever had the chance to?
Seemed inevitable when he blasted the players again. He and Abramovich deserve each other.
Unfortunately for us, City now have a great back up option should we land Pep. I still rate Mourinho despite all the defeats this season, I'd happily have him herer in a few years.
I'm sure they could hold talks with him to replace LVG at the end of the season because I don't see any top manager free next summer.
Hayley McQueen is looking phenomenal on Sky Sports News.
They're still a million miles behind the news though.

Good riddance!
you and me both
Maybe the players deserved it. The poor little darlings.
