Jose Mourinho

Yep why not. We're not getting top 4 and the chances of us beating City in the final are slim at best, so let him have a crack for the remainder of the season. It'll be interesting.

Worst case scenario is we lose the cup final and it's a spurs fan in charge who loves the club so we can't be too mad at him because we know he will try his best.

Best case scenario we win the cup and our coach is a spurs fan that will celebrate as much as the fans and players will.

He's a good bloke but was always the wrong fit for us. That's now 3 sackings in succession I believe for Jose - Surely he must finally accept that he's stuck in his old ways and needs to adapt to football in 2021 and beyond.

Edit: If he was sacked because of the European League thing as mentioned above then that's incredibly poor by Levy, and the club should be ashamed even more than it should be right now.

Don't forget that Levy let loose Jol being fired at half time and from what I remember, Berbatov checked his phone at half time, walked up to Jol and just said "sorry boss"

Even the commentators knew that he'd been sacked before he did.

Not really mate.

I think the emotion for now will be relief.

Levy always has a plan.

Will it work - who knows but Mourinho had to go.

I'm talking about the fact that we don't even know what league we'll be in next season...

 

[RocketRonny]

btw I don't think Jose will get full compensation. Breach of fundamental terms if he refused to coach

 

[Ealesy]

Honestly my elation at this news has been completely overshadowed by this super league bullshit

 

[YTpaxton]

Very interesting wording. Could well be the bust up and quite sudden.

'Relieved of their duties'.

Blimey that's cold. Might as well have given them a dishonourable discharge.
:hugoshock:

Would he not be in breach of contract by refusing to take training? No payout if that’s the case because he’s refused to do what he’s employed to do. Just musing as I dance a fucking jig round the garden

Jose is the manager. He can decide what the schedule is like.

No there's something else here.

 

[Incomplete_usernam]

What is he wins the cup and qualifies for Europe?

Then let him stay on but I doubt Levy will even under those circumstances.

Levy wants a big name to manage this club going into the money league.

 

[snowkarl]

I love this drama

 

[Thin Lilywhite Duke]

Hold on just a minute...

If the story of José refusing to train is true, does that mean he was breaching contract and can be sacked for free?

He's done it again

 

[NW1Spur]

I don't recall words like that being used before in a managerial departure.

 

[VonnegutBusy]

From what was shaping up to be a dull and depressing end to the season, this has really thrown a cat amongst the pigeons.

Exciting stuff.

Now I'm dreaming of good football again and no more Sissoko, Aurier and Sanchez!!!

I want 10 signings this summer

[Alli-Luya]

That's the sort of wording used when a shelf-stacker at Tesco is found nicking stuff.

 

[Zomb]

I don't know how you can be so dismissive? Have you never seen a company do something like this before? Sacking Mourinho now takes a huge amount of heat off the chairman from the fans.

I’ve seen Levy sack a manager seven days before a semi final before and not surprised he has sacked him now

I honestly think it has nothing to do with ESL. It makes sense from a football perspective, he gave him as long as possible to prove he could turn it around so a Hail Mary before the final makes sense

 

[Aleksic]

If only the fans could sack the board in the same manner. We need to go to the German 50+1 model so fans have more of a say.

 

[Habanero]

He's still showing in the Current Spurs smilies. Needs fixing asap.
