Mick Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Agree with all that, would be interested in seeing a similar table with points per game on it, you seen one about? Souness and Roeder were mentioned earlier with regards to win percentage, he comes out better than Souness but not as good as Roeder. I knocked one up but didn't save it, off the top of my head Souness was 1.1 ish point per game, Pardew 1.4 ish and Roeder possibly 1.6 ish but that's a rough estimate.

Interpolic Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 I honestly think him managing us would work well for both parties if he was backed financially. If he could lead us to a trophy then it would add massively to his prestige. Will never happen though. I honestly think we'd have a good chance of getting him as any but maybe 2 or 3 clubs because of his links to Bobby. The only downside for him would be the people he'd have to work with. That could be balanced out by him having already worked on the continent and possibly not having a great deal of input into transfers. The financial fair play will also mean that wherever he goes he's going to have to work within these guidelines so can't expect massive transfer budgets. Would Ashley and Llambias have the intelligence to go after him or talk him into the job? Somehow I couldn't see it. Mourinho wouldn't stand for having his best players sold without his input and not having gaps in the squad plugged at the soonest opportunity. As you say it would take a lot of ambition from the board for a start to create the set of circumstances required. It'll never happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 I don't think he'd be interested in coming here in the slightest. Bobby tried to bring him here when he was manager at Benfica and he only turned him down because he wanted to remain a manager and didn't expect that Bobby would ever stand down. Mourinho is just arrogant enough to think he could do something here and we're no worse a club than Chelsea was. We just don't have the money they had and I doubt he'll ever be in that position again because of the financial fair play rules. I'm sure what he did with Porto will have him believing that he can win things with any club, they weren’t exactly flush with cash when he won the CL with them, at least not on the scale of that win. He wanted to go to Liverpool before he went to Chelsea, even though Chelsea had much more of a financial carrot to dangle, Liverpool went for Benitez instead so he did go to Chelsea but it wasn't his first choice.

Wullie Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Wigan wouldn't be a no-mark club if they had the money though. City were a total nothing five years ago, madras is right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Even City had to settle for Mark Hughes before they got Mancini. Wigan would have to build a decent set-up there before someone like Mourinho would go within a mile of the place, regardless of how much money they have.
