    Roma is getting dominated, but I think they will hold on. This is my issue with his coaching style though, it really reminds me of how we play under Santos

    Like Jose....you are coaching Roma, a serie A team, why are you playing so defensively against farmers?

    Mourinho winning another European final in Mourinho fashion.

    He seems way happier winning this trophy than he did the Europa League with Manchester United.

    A third rate trophy for a tier 3 European power like Roma. But as long as the old boy is happy then good enough achievement for Jose at this stage of his career

    He played just as defensively with tier 1 European powers for first rate trophies, too, though.

    How'd folks expect him to set up?

    he can set up anyway he wants, but there’s a reason elite clubs do not fancy him anymore.

    You're right. Elite clubs fancy dudes who can't win the Champions League with billion dollar payrolls.

    Ouch, but you're right.
    I think the man's record speaks for himself.

    Mourinho isn't built to win with bigger budget teams, it's just not his style. He won with Porto, Inter, Manchester United & Roma.

    Granted, Manchester United is big budget but when he was coaching them what he did for them was an over achievement winning the Europa League.

    WIth smaller budget teams, Mourinho has license to play to his style more in European Competition and pull out the greasy 1-0 wins. Just the way he likes it.

    PSG considering Jose Mourinho as their next manager.

    Will he win another?

    If it’s true he would be insane to turn it down in favor of “loyalty” to Roma

    What was our GM thinking going into the post season with a FRANGO like Smith.

    We lead the playoffs in goals scored and goals allowed.

    PSG should actually appoint him. His outdated tactics do work if the team is extremely stacked for counter attacks. We just saw Ancelotti win the cl in similar fashion, getting dominated in practically all the games and being bailed out by the individual brilliance of world class attackers

    Not a big fan of Mourinhos style. As a Hungarian, bela gutman was a superb coach. My father told me a lot about him. I think benfica fans would know his name.

    Fired at Roma now, this guy is finished.

    I am truly a prodigal mind, I called this way before the rest of the world caught on.
