You Little Liar!!

During a Press Conference the Chosen One Jose Mourinho declared that in Two Years Time

He wants to Return and Coach again in England. But Get This'

At a Club that is at the Bottom of the Table, Who's Not Playing in Europe.

He Didn't State Which Table, I Presume he meant the Premier League and Not League 2 or the National League (that would be Fun). I Can't picture him going up to Carlisle on a Freezing Cold Winter's Tuesday Night, for a Rearranged Fixture after the Original Fixture had been called off, due to a Frozen Pitch. And if he ever went to join a National League Outfit, they'd have to Sell All Their Players, Their Stadium and the Ground it was Built on just to pay his wages for a week. He'd be better off Buying his Own Club ( I'm sure he's got the money) and Coaching that team, Now that would be worth Seeing Jose Mourinho's Wealdstone vs Pep Guardiola's Gateshead. Yes I know I'm being Silly, but to be Honest I'd pay Good Money to see that Fixture. Along with a Hell of a lot of other People No Doubt.

So Can anybody see Jose following Up his Statement in Two Years Time? In the Words of the Late Bobby Ball "You Little Liar"

He's basically advertising that he will be available for work in the PL in two years time.

I think that a few PL clubs would be interested but not the top PL clubs. 

He'll probably get a job as a Mr Fixer on a short term contract, similar to the contracts Big Sam & Neil have, when a club needs their services.

As for going down the leagues, that is a no no in my opinion. It would be a good move as far as I'm concerned, but I don't think these elite Managers would do that.

However, I've just started a thread on Ian Holloway going to Swindon, so it's not impossible that a PL Manager can go down the leagues for work.

But as for Jose making the move down the football  pyramid, No way Jose.

No Way Jose  Very Good. I Think Del Boy would agree with You, when he said No Way Pedro.

He could achieve great things if he took charge of a lower Premier League team, but I wouldn’t expect miracles. I doubt he could replicate what Claudio Ranieri did at Leicester City. A mid-table finish is possible, with improvements over the years, but he would need to spend money. However, I can’t see him or Pep doing that.

I don't think either option would work. 

Players might be more open to signing, but they would have wage limitations and other factors to consider. Managers like Jose would find this quite difficult.

There's a bit of an assumption that top managers have had gilded careers. But Mourinho played in the fifth tier of Portuguese football and was a PE teacher before joining Bobby Robson's staff at Sporting Lisbon. All the same, he'll have better options than Carlisle...

Plenty of managers from the top flight have ended up falling down the leagues though, mainly due to a lack of success. That orange bloke who took Hull to the Premier League (edit: Phil Brown) is one of them, he's now the manager of Kidderminster. Brian Little managed Aston Villa in the UEFA Cup, but ended up at Gainsborough Trinity. And more recently Mark Hughes, once an established Premier League manager, got the sack from Bradford. And former internationals like Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink, Sol Campbell and Edgar Davids have got their hands dirty in charge of small clubs with mixed results. Even Harry Kewell

So it does happen!
