Is The Chosen One In Hot Water?


Recommended Posts

Is Jose Mourinho in Hot Water? The Fenerbahce Boss spoke of being Lied to during a Post Match Interview.  Where he Panned Turkish Match officials and Their VAR. He stated that his Team not only had to play the Opposition, but the System as well. After his team snatched a Dramatic 3-2 Victory with a Goal in the 102nd minute, Mourinho went on his Rant in the Post Match Interview, claiming the Fenerbahce President had only told him Half the Truth to get him to Turkey and if he had been aware of the Whole Truth he wouldn't have gone to the Turkish side.

Mourinho's side was 1-0 up when the Referee gave the visiting Trabzonspor team two Penalties after speaking to the VAR Official. Mourinho blasted the VAR Official because he gave the Penalties when the Referee hadn't and had denied his side a Penalty before they snatched their late win. So was the Chosen One hinting at Corruption within the Turkish Game? Or is he trying to Get the Sack because he No Longer wants to be the Fenerbahce Head Coach? Was it a Disguised plea to some Premier League Club, to come and Rescue him from his Turkish Nightmare? It seems very Strange to have a Pop at your Employers in such a way and gives the Impression, Jose Wants Out.

Mourinho is always known for speaking his mind & telling all & sundry how it is. 

He certainly gets the headlines & people sit up & listen when he speaks.

He's one of those one off managers that come around ever so often & you will either love him or loathe him.

When he gets upset, he really does go for it & it looks no different here.

Whether he's regretting the appointment or not, I will be surprised if he is still working in Turkey by the end of the week, but of course, I may be wrong.

The guy is certainly an entertainer. Something that is sadly lacking in the vast majority  of football managers today.

An update on this Topic. Jose Mourinho has been Fined £15,000 and Banned for One Match for his Outburst about the Standard of Turkish Match Officials. The Turkish Football Governing Body declared that the Chosen One's Rant was,

Contrary to Sportsmanship, Sport Ethics or the Concept of Fair play and were Diminishing the Value of Football in the Country.

At the Moment Mourinho's Employers Fenerbahce, haven't commented on the part of the Out Burst regarding what Mourinho said about the Club's President. It would seem to Me that the Chosen One wont see out his contract in Turkey, and He is looking for a Return to the Premier League.

@Wheelbarrow repair man maybe Leicester City will be looking for a Manager soon if things don't improve for them although Big Sam or Neil might be in the running for that job too.

@Robbie I Don't Think Leicester could afford him. Plus would he be prepared to take a Big Drop in Money, then again would he have much of a Choice? If he does want to get out of Turkey? Or will he wait for a position that will pay him the Money he wants? I Think You're Right if Leicester do go for a New Coach, Big Sam and Neil Warnock, will be well in Contention at least till the End of the Season, even if they save Leicester from going down then as usual I think they'll be let go and the Foxes will Find a Full Time Coach for the New 2025/2026 Season.

He might take a pay cut to take Leicester on. It would be a challenge for him that he might excel at.

Saving Leicester from the drop could get other clubs higher up the league paying him attention once again.

You never know. Another spell at Chelsea could happen once more.

I can't see his outspoken nature changing or being reigned in, even if he ends up being fined or whatever. He's always saying something controversial, it's partly why I am glad he's not involved in English football. Whilst he can be funny, I just prefer to ignore things related to him.

I think he would see himself as far too big to manage a team in a relegation battle. I've seen the rumours about him wanting the Newcastle job, they'd be daft to boot Eddie Howe out for him in my opinion. The only clubs I think would want him are those with more money than sense. Forest would’ve been likely candidates but they’re doing well with Nuno so you’re only really left with West Ham… No way a top 6 club goes near him and the sensible smaller clubs know he’s more hassle than he’s worth.

We seem to have Gone Slightly Off Topic, Regarding the Chosen One. It Now seems the Question is Where would Mourinho Go If he came back to Coach a Premier League Club? Which is Fine and it Encourages more Debate. Adding my 4 Pennies Worth. It would be Interesting to see if some Unfancied Premier League Club, could Coax him to Manage them and if they were engaged  in a Relegation Fight it would be Interesting to see How He Would or Could Handle The Situation.

Everton, West Ham, Wolves, Southampton, Crystal Palace and Leicester all come to mind. Or How About Some Ambitious Championship Side Making A Bid For The Chosen One?

Look No Further than Down The Other End Of The A52 Brian Clough Way. That's Right Our Friends At Derby County.

@Wheelbarrow repair man the chosen one might not be the chosen one or the favourite one with owners anymore. 

Jose has always been outspoken at times. Not sure if owners will want to take a chance on him, but as we all Know Cloughie was outspoken at times too & it didn't stop him getting a job.

Jose is undoubtedly a very good Manager so I'm sure he will still be in demand if he wants to come back to England.
