Is Jose Mourinho rightman for chelsea?

Doesn't matter who the manager is, with the money that Abramovitch puts in even an idiot could buy a winning team. Simple. Buy the best players from all over the world. Send them out and watch them play. If they're good enough they wouldn't need coaching just keep fit. Mourinho comes across as an arrogant idiot.

As a Man United supporter, I must say no :).  Chelsea is very good but I think United will give them a good run and come out on top in the end.

He did most of the work of getting the class players. But as shown in the Champions League semi-final, he wasnt as good a manager as Mourinho. He makes alot of questionable substitutions and doesn't motivate his team like Mourinho. \n\nBut he did most of the work of bringing the backbone of the current Chelsea team together.

Jose Mourinho was appointed as the new manager of Chelsea on June 2nd 2004, just two days after Claudio Ranieri's dismissal from the post at Stamford Bridge. \n\nMourinho arrived at the west London club as one of the most highly-rated young coaches in Europe, having just won the Champions League with Porto after a 3-0 victory over Monaco in the final. \n\nThat was the icing on the cake for the determined young boss, who had also steered his side to a successful defence of their Portuguese League title in 2003/04 after guiding them to an amazing treble the previous year of a domestic league and cup double and the UEFA Cup, beating Celtic in a dramatic final. \n\nThe son of famous Portugal goalkeeper Felix Mourinho, Jose never played professionally but always had his sights set on a career in coaching. He first came into the spotlight as Bobby Robson's translator at Sporting Lisbon in the early 1990s, having held low-profile positions at Portuguese clubs Estrela Amadora and Vitoria Setubal prior to that. \n\nMourinho became increasing involved in training under the former England boss and went with him to Porto in 1993, helping the club to two league titles in three years. \n\nIn 1996, Robson again took Mourinho with him, this time appointing him as assistant coach at Barcelona, and though Robson left the following year, his number two remained at the Nou Camp to take up a new role under new boss Louis van Gaal. \n\nIn 2000, Mourinho took up his first job as a head coach, at Benfica, but he was there for just nine game before he resigned due to problems in the boardroom. Shortly after that, he was appointed coach at little-known club Uniao de Leiria and guided them into the top five of the Portuguese league midway through the 2001/02 season before returning to Porto as head coach. \n\nMourinho took over at Porto in January 2002 and was able to transform their fortunes immediately, helping them to overcome a poor start to the season to take them to third in the league. \n\nIn his first full season in charge, he then delivered three trophies: Portuguese league and cup, and UEFA Cup. \n\nThe following season, with the league title already secured once more, he then achieved what most people considered to be an unlikely feat of guiding Porto to glory in the Champions League, beating Manchester United with a last-minute goal at Old Trafford along the way. \n\nHaving stated immediately after Porto's victory over Monaco that he expected it to be his last game in charge, as he had promised an English club that he would be their manager the following season, it seemed inevitable that Mourinho was heading for Stamford Bridge. \n\nWith the manager's job at Liverpool also up for grabs, his name was linked with Anfield, but it looked more likely that he would be succeeding Claudio Ranieri at Chelsea, and on June 2nd that was confirmed. \n\nAfter his appointment had been officially announced, Mourinho said: "Chelsea represent a fantastic challenge for me. It is a great club with a world-class squad of players. The plans and ambitions for Chelsea excite me and I am sure they will do the same for the fans whose incredible support I have already witnessed. \n\n"The English Premiership is recognised as the best league in the world and I am really excited at the prospect of competing week in, week out at the highest level in England as well as in Europe." \n\nMeanwhile, Chelsea's chief executive Peter Kenyon said: "The appointment of Jose Mourinho is all about building on the foundations which we have already established at Chelsea. He represents the new generation of football coaches and we are convinced he can take us to the next level, both in England in Europe. His record of sustained success makes him perfect for what we want to achieve at Chelsea." \n\nMourinho's role as a 21st century team boss is facilitated by the fact that he speaks several languages, and he has also adopted a scientific v

No, Chelsea's best midfielder is undoubted Frank Lampard. Here's the stats to prove it:\n\nEssien:\nMinutes played - 2466 from 27 starts and 4 subs\nGoals - 2, 1 being the 1st goal of the game\n\nLampard:\nMinutes played - 3160 from 35 starts, none as substitute\nGoals - 16, 5 being the 1st goal of the game

YES,without a shadow of a doubt.Chelsea are on the verge of doing what Liverpool did in the 70's/80's and what Arsenal & Man USA did in the 90's.People will always use money as the catalyst for Chelsea's success but Ruud Van Nistelrooy did'nt arrive on a free transfer neither did Henry or Vieria or Pires.So what makes Chelsea any different?\nIf Roman Abramovich landed his Helicopter on your ground would you tell him to go way?.Of course everyone is jealous of Chelsea.

Please the league table does not lie.  OF course it does.  Manchester United are a much better team.  Manchester United went through some major changes in the early part of the season with the new ownership and everything and so they got off to a slow start.  This Manchester United team that we're seeing towards the middle and end of the season is the team we all know and love.  Plus MANCHESTER BEAT CHELSEA!!  Mourinho can buy all the players he wants with his fat wallet but that will only get him so far.  Pretty soon they will turn into another Real Madrid, all stars no trophies.  Manchester or Chelsea?  Please, MANCHESTER UNITED is so much more of a better team than Chelsea.

I am sure Chelsea would make a bid as they seem to be buying up every good player. If he is however thinking of hanging the boots he might relocate to Japan or USA.

i think next season willbe the tightest for many years. as we all know chelsea can go out and buy whoever they want  and they will be the team to beat, especially if they do land Michael Ballack.  They need to land a top class striker as crespo and drogba are not cut out for the premiership.\nman united need to get  replacement for roy keane and also need to get the van nilsterooy situation sorted.  if they can buy someone who will strengthen the midfield and have a better combination up front with rooney then they will be hard to stop.  i don't know if they will sell van nilsterooy or just get him more settled.\nliverpool have improved a lot this season. getting over 70points in the premiership has been a long way off recently but this season rafa has the team playing well. if it had not been for that non scoring spell at the start of the season we would be up there now chasing chelsea and united.  obviously the defence is fantastic, it would be even better if we could find someone to take traore.  we need a winger, but then mark gonazalez has been doing fantastic in spain this season so hopefully his visa will be cleared this year.  and of course we need a prolific striker. fowler should stay but his days of scoring 25 goals a season are gone.  we need someone young and who has proven their talent already. darren bent maybe, or andy johnson if palace aren't promoted. \narsenal's young players really came to fruition in the second half of the season and they will have to dratically improve their away form next season if they are going to be up theree. if they manage ot hold on to henry then they will still need to bolster their midfield, especially as it appears pires is leaving. if henry leaves however, they will have a large sum of money to improve the squad. note i didn't say replace him, because a player of his skill and importance will never be replaced.\nso for next season it will be a close run thing. liverpool improved this year in having less stupid results against the minnows butin games against chelsea they suffered. that is the stumbling block for all the big teams, taking points off eachother but then taking nothing off chelsea. \nso to conclude........i think next season will depend on liverpool getting a top class striker. if they do then i think they will be the strongest contender to chelsea's title. bnt i expect chelsea to buy the title again.

He should stay. Look how far the team made it with a very young team. Arsenal could be challenging Chelsea and ManU next season.

I greatly sympathise with Graham Poll, but he surely is quick with those cards sometimes. I wish he could, once in a while, consult his linesman, but as Jose Mourinho said, Graham Poll wants to be part of the action, and it is usually for the wrong reasons. I think he should try by all means improve his referring skills through involving his linesmen otherwise his reputation will continue to slide down disgracefully.

As a Chelsea fan, i completly love Jose Mourinho, he has being nothing short of a sensation since arriving at Chelsea in 2004. He has transformed us from maybe's to champions of England. His coaching style is very good, as he always keeps his players on there toes, never hardly let the players drop their standard whilst playing.\n\nThe reason why he comes across as being arrogant, is because he is soley a winner and all winner's have that edge on themselves, look at Muhammed Ali, Sir Alex Ferguson, Thierry Henry, people like that.\n\nIf you really are a Chelsea fan you should be enjoying this period, like myself, as we have being stuck in the shadows of Manchester United and Arsenal for far too long.

Becuse he is too self-centered and egoistic. He has enormous amount of talent in making Chelsea one of the best team in the history, but is ultra-confident. And we all know what over confidence can do to anybody. \n\nBtw, which club do you support?

If he plays a major part in the Argentinian team in the world cup, all the money in the world will pour down at Corinthians and they will have to end up seling him.\nChelsea is trying to restructure itself as we speak, Im quite sure, Mourinho will be paying attention at the world cup, and however makes it good, he will try and sign it.\nBut again, it all depends on how well he does on the international stage, if he fares well, I think Chelsea will stop at nothing to sign him.
