Real wouldn't be the team they are without him.
Amazing player.
Sure is.

If Mourinho ends up at City I would not be surprised at all to see Ronaldo joining him.

I like City, I like Mourinho, and I like Ronaldo, but I would hate for that to happen.

Imagine that happening :| That's a lethal concoction right there!
Will Mourinho leave Real tho in the next season or so? I could see him wanting to winning La Liga then trying to win it the following season too, to try and accomplish something.

I agree. It would be a lethal combination.

Last I read was that he is having problems in the dressing room and will be in the market for a new challenge over the summer.

The City project looks like it would be right up his street. It is not often a coach the quality of Mourinho comes on the market and there was fairly reliable speculation a few weeks ago that a deal is already done to bring him onboard IIRC. As somebody who hates city, I am not looking forward to him shipping half of madrid over to Manchester. As a football fan however, it should make match of the day more interesting hehe

I like Mourinho as a character, would be good to have him back in the limelight over here biggrin

Mourinho is an absolute embarrassment to football.

As I'm sure you can guess, there is no love lost over RM from me, but I honestly feel like he is dragging their club into a dark alley from which it might never get rid of the marks.

His continual spats with UEFA and the Spanish Football and Referee authorities MUST be a continued concern for the Board @ the Santiago Bernebau. His touch-line antics are probably worse, the peak of which saw his finger poke in the eye of Tito Vilanova (and then claim to not know who he is). I, for one, can't understand anyone actually enjoying this sort of behaviour and as anyone who's got an understanding of FC Barcelona or indeed has read Graham Hunter's fantastic Barca book will understand; it's not without reason that Barca overlooked him after interviewing him and gave the job to Pep.

He's a bitter, twisted, egotistical fool and I'm glad Barca side stepped that one.

Not any more - he's at it again! Cheap penalty for the second though.

I really hope Levante get European football next season as they've continued to surprise and exceed all expectations.

Last I saw, using your hands to gain a physical advantage was a direct foul. A direct foul in the box is a Penalty...

Spanish directive this season is that the ball and hands make contact, give a yellow and free kick/pen....that's wahat happened with Busi....so why were Barca not awarded a further 2 penalities in the game?

  1. consistancy.
