Chelsea

Despite what he's achieved in the game with various clubs, I wouldn't want him anywhere near our club.

I'd rather have Hodgson back.

Err, maybe...

[Helios Creed]

Aye...hate the cunt but can't deny it's fascinating and I'm intrigued to see where he'll go if this is true. Just not here. Please.

Exactly.

He won't come to us though - he once stated that, but wouldn't say why - I suspect **** Off Mourinho was the reason - we didn't show the lying, cheating egomaniac the respect that he deserves I guess...

[Craig_H]

I think Hicks and Gillett were the reason.

This is what Mourinho said in 2010 regarding the Liverpool job.

He said: “Manchester United would be a great challenge for me. But Liverpool is not the club for me. I know why, but I cannot tell you.

“Tottenham, Everton... Arsenal maybe. These are all fine clubs with very good managers.

“You can dream of what happens in one, two, three or four years. Who knows? I cannot say, but I think you have an idea of what I think about.

He was obviously off his knockers when he decided to mention a bittersweet team.

[Helios Creed]

I think Hicks and Gillett were the reason.

possibly, but when they dicked us at Anfield that time and he walked round the pitch and virtually urinated on the 4 corner flags, I was convinced it was the fans that had got under his skin. Quite proud in fact.

Isn't he a Liverpool fan? I'm sure Carragher said that in his book. I wonder if that has anything to do with it. Going on the answer he gave, I got the impression it was something more obscure than the previous owners...

[Baracus]

I don't think its obscure. We ****ed him off in the summer of 2004 and he is holding that against us. Bitter Cunt. Great Manager thou.

All his quotes before he left Porto, LFC is great, great History, great managers we were looking for a new manager led me and many others as well as Mourinho probably that he was coming to Anfield. Rick and Moores had other Ideas.

[Phoenix07]

I don't think we fobbed him off in 2004. He already had an agreement with Chelsea. However, even by the tone of the man himself in his book, it sounds like he'd have taken the Liverpool job over Chelsea job. Rick Parry approached him three times, one before Porto played Man Utd, one before the Champions League Final against Monaco and another after it in which he'd already agreed to join Chelsea.

[Baracus]

Did not know that.. Just remember some of his quotes Pre-Chavs about how great all things LFC was.

[lfcred]

Cant stand the guy! hope he doesn't come to us or anyone else in the league!

Jose Mourinho swept back into Britain yesterday... lining himself up for a dramatic return to the Premier League he loves.

He went househunting in London sparking speculation of a comeback at troubled Chelsea, but he has also been linked with Spurs and Arsenal.

The Special One lit up English football during his colourful reign at Stamford Bridge and left with some “unfinished business”.

The 49-year-old, who impressed and infuriated fans in almost equal measure during his three seasons as Chelsea boss, spent a day househunting in West London with his wife Tami, 41, and two children.

A source said: “It’s no secret Jose wants another crack at the Premier League.

“He has always felt like he has a *particular bond with English fans and had some of the happiest years of his life managing Chelsea.

“He has unfinished business and would love to win the *European Cup with a big side, which is one thing he didn’t manage to do in England.

“It also helps that he loves living in London, and his family are used to the city.”


But the charismatic Real Madrid boss’s secret trip to the capital could spell bad news for current Chelsea chief Andre Villas-Boas who is *struggling to succeed at Stamford Bridge as the spectre of impatient billionaire owner Roman Abramovich looms over him.

AVB worked under Mourinho during his Chelsea reign.

But it could herald good tidings for Tottenham fans who will need a replacement for boss Harry Redknapp if he takes the England job or Arsenal supporters should under-fire Arsene Wenger quit.

Mourinho won every domestic honour during his time with Chelsea, including two Premier League titles, the first in his debut season in 2004. It ended a 50-year wait for the championship.

But his failure to land the *European Cup the Russian owner craves ultimately cost him his job in 2007.

The *Portuguese idol, who has melted the hearts of women fans across Europe, is *understood to have viewed several homes with his family.

It is thought he favours Belgravia. *Mourinho still owns a flat in the area but is said to want a bigger home now daughter Matilde and son Jose Junior are older.

The source added: “It would be no problem for them to adapt again.

“It’s not just about getting the right job for Jose, but what is right for his wife and children, too.”

Mourinho left Heathrow for Spain yesterday afternoon carrying doughnuts and a Harrods bag.

He still has two years left on his £8.4million-a-year deal with Spanish giants Real but is said to be tired with in-fighting at the club and is set to quit in the summer.
