He clearly has had a soft spot for us for a while. Wont be a shock if he spends more time here than Poch did.
He and his family obviously like London so he might want to spend longer than usual here and then finish by managing Portugal.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves here! :barefoot:

Yeah but he was shit at Chelsea and Utd when he returned to England. He only won the League and League Cup in 2015 with Chelsea and then at Utd only won the League Cup, Community Shield and Europa League. Past it!

Watching the first training video - bloody hell this is a bit surreal!!! ?

I still can't believe it haha, its going to a while for us to get used to never mind the players, even seeing the coaching staff introduce themselves to the players felt surreal, hopefully we can create a good bond together over the coming months

Dont know if anyone else clocked it, when going up to Tanganga he turns to one of the other coaches and says 'he marked Ronaldo'. Little things like that will make the players feel ten feet tall and shows he has been watching us since pre season in depth.
He's a good man manager until it all implodes. I'm going to enjoy the ride.

What an embarrassing post. I’ve spoken with you about this and made very clear what the objections were and yet you keep parroting this wild claims for likes. Very dishonest.
It was and honest post that is true. It was not directed to you, as I don't think you post crap. At least not all the time.
But you must agree, I'm sure, that on SC in general for weeks there has been so much idiocy posted about Mourinho and why he wouldn't come to Tottenham. So now, when people claim to know that his football moving forward will be shit, I call bullshit.
And everybody knows that I post what I think, I don't post to be popular.

When I told my brother we are being linked with a DOF, he responded with "F****** Glazers!!!"

He's a United fan and he gets it.

Has it crossed anybody else's mind that Levy may have pissed Poch off on purpose as he knew Mourinho was available?

No offence but I think that's nonsense. Levy has building us to a position where we can attract a manager like Mourinho. This is the culmination of what Levy has been building. Even if its only a short term thing who cares as long we are successful? Hes pretty unlikely to leave us in a worse on field position than we are in now. You don't see a prosperous future? He's hardly going to ruin us - this appointment, whether it works out or not, shows that we are now a major force in world football.

What did Levy build? He built the stadium. The rest was mostly Poch, specially after a whole season without signings. He set up the whole club under the same football phylosophy. That will be destroyed with Mourinho
I don't know what will happen, but we could def be worse that what we are now. United is a mess after Mourinho.

Re the bolded part. It could be that, or it could also be that Mourinho is past his best and his pull is significantly lower.
I think it's a bit of both. We certainly gained popularity with the CL final, but we are not a major force.

No money to spend in Jan according to Hynter. Lol.


no money for an "overhaul"..I'd suggest that one fullback is all Mourinho really needs to have this team quickly moving up the table and save the rest of summer so not quite the hyperbolic "no money" situation.
