I world take Mourinho, bit of a loose cannon these days and you just know at some point he will fall put with the board and get sacked, but if there is a manager available who could get a tune out of our lot and provide passion (and entertainment) along the way, maybe not on the pitch, but off it.......

Get him in👍

I would love to see Jose managing us away at spurs and beating them 3-0 … kudus subbed off with no shots on target hahaha

Proper revenge match!

Appoint morinho NOW.  Say what you say about his football but the matches would be better than what BFS and Moyes served up for sure and we would have a decent win percentage. IT'S A NO BRAINER!

If Sullivan dumps Potter for Mourinho, it might suggest he's got a proper pair of working Alberts after all.

Can't see him standing for being told to fuck the fuck off out of the footballing side of things for long though,

I think he likes the idea of foreign...but when it comes to "survival" or "save us"...he goes for the Moyes/Allardyce type. Suspect he'd want a guy for just this season and then re-evaluate...reckon Cooper would be so insufficiently in demand he'd take a deal like that, and Sullivan is known to be a Cooper admirer.
 
 
Mourinho would save us. Ticks no boxes for the dwarf. But we tick a lot boxes for Jose it seems:

Sully ain't shy about hiring foreigners. Or firing them either. British managers have been given far longer in charge and in all cases too much longer, I'd say. Moyes & Allardyce because of the deathly dull football and Potter because, well, he was utter shit on every level last season and he was never going to improve.

Yeah you'll probably right. Would Southgate take it? He's be a disaster. 
We have to hope maybe Man Utd get to Southgate first :)

Sullivan will 100% get Cooper. He ticks EVERY Sullivan box.
 
 
I actually think he likes the idea of a foreign manager tbh. I dont think he actually rates British managers at all. I dont think he wanted Potter, got Moyes out of desperation and reluctantly employed him again, Went for Pelligrini etc, Lopetegui, wanted Benetiz etc. rather than a Rodger’s or Howe.

Someone with balls enough to scrap 5 at the back and Sullivan's scattergun transfer policy.
I'm afraid noone ticks both boxes

Whatever you might say about Mourinho he's an improvement on our current and well all of the previous managers bar Lyall and Greenwood.

Didn’t Alvarez just go to Fernebache with Mouhrinho?? 
Would be funny if Jose came here now.

One for me would be Carlos Coboran at Valencia.  Was rated at WBA and turned Valencia around impressively last season. 

He would certainly be on my radar.

Mourinho is clearly going to be replacing a fellow Portuguese manager somewhere.

Anyone care to guess?

I'd have Jose, if we're going to have a moody manager that plays boring defensive football it might as well be him

If they keep getting half their team sold from under them I’d imagine the Palace & Bournemouth managers might be open to persuasion
