What an unexpected decision, if someone told you this last year you would have never believed him!

Also does anyone else have a strong feeling Mou is going to Spurs? Think he’s desperate to come back to the PL and Spurs right now seem to be the best option.

Please Poch to United

It would be bad timing imo, United are finding some good form right now.

Maybe wait till Jan to see how the results go, if it's not good enough then maybe make a move and use the transfer window to get a few players in.

Maybe it's not that simple. Maybe he wanted to leave last summer or next, and seeing things were not going so well they sacked him because might as well try to rebuild now. They could definitely have done that 10 days ago though haha.

For Poch now, maybe the best is to wait a bit. ManU is too much of a mess... Bayern will need someone, maybe PSG or Madrid too, depending on results. These are better options for him and I'm sure those clubs would want him.

Also Mourinho favorite??? What would Pande do if this happened?

I don’t get why Chelsea fans would be upset if Mourinho went to Spurs since he got sacked by Chelsea?

I guess in modern football nothing is shocking anymore. Pochettino, for example, said he would never coach Barça because of his Espanyol past. He'd have been a nice replacement though xD

Chelsea fans still love him tho, Chelsea has never since been as good as they were during Mourinho stage 1.

So apparently he signed, The Spurcial One. It’ll be announced tomorrow. No mention of the duration of the contract so far.

How fucking complicated is this EURO? From Nations League to Qualifier back to Nations League qualifier to group placement. And then ofc advancing to the next round with some best 3rd places. No wonder nobody is watching football anymore.

You can only imagine how confusing it was for Finns because we actually had to put our hopes for anything we can get. It felt like wildly flailing around and hoping that something works in the end. Luckily, the regular quals worked out this time, because the rest is way more confusing stuff.

Now we only need to figure out which group we'll get and which side of Europe that is played and all that. If I'm going to see anything, it's likely either St. Petersburg or Copenhagen. Both would be cool, but odds of Finland playing there are quite limited as far as I can tell.

I'm a little bit conflicted. I am offically unbiased in the Premier League. But I have a soft spot for Spurs because of how they almost manage to compete with the best despite so few resources compared to the big boys. However I'm pretty sure I hate Mourinho more than I like Spurs. The wheels are close to falling off the Spurs bus. A lot of the top players want out because they can get better money elsewhere and who can blame them. I hope Mourinho has a disaster frankly, Kane and Son move on and Spurs fall apart. Leicester can replace them as the small team stealing my heart fighting with the top 6 (Leicester look better than Arsenal, Yanited and Spurs right now). Daniel Levy has fucked this up. They had such a good team they just needed a little more investment to keep things fresh bring ina few players and maybe pay their stars a salary they deserve so they are less tempted to leave. That would have been enough to keep Spurs in the top 4. I can't see them finishing in the top 4 anytime soon after everyone abandons ship and there's no investment to find new players. That academy better be fucking good. I'm so glad I'm not actually a Spurs fan. I'd be fuming.

Yeah Mourinho is an awful fit for the job. Unless Levy is suddenly going to open the purse strings and that seems unlikely. Even then I have no faith in Mourinho. How much did he spend at Yanited? He left them with 0 world class outfield players after wasting all that money too.
