It’s shocking news in football. Yes The Special One Jose Maurinho has left Chelsea FC on mutual consent. I was really stunned by the news. I feel like someone has died!
I am one of the biggest admirers there is when it comes to José Mourinho. What he has done for Chelsea is breathtaking. Is it marvelous? He made Chelsea into giants. He gave Chelsea two consecutive league titles, a home record of three years without a loss, cup titles etc. Beside, he gave Chelsea a team with spirits that never have been matched in any other club!
There are many reasons why Jose leaves Chelsea. I believe the beginning of the end for Jose came when Micheal Ballack and Andriy Shevchenko were brought in without Jose permission. Ballack-Sheva crisis start to happen when they can’t perform well in EPL.
The crisis is more worsen when Frank Arnesen is being brought in as a one of the backroom staff. No manager can feel comfortable with having positions filled behind his back and Jose indicated so. After finished second behind MU last season, Roman once again appointed Avram Grant as a director of football. Once again, Jose feels insecure with his position.
Roman Abramovich is a hands on owner. We all knew that. He can do what he wants!
Still. I never thought José would leave. But today he obviously decided enough was enough. He needed and wanted more support from the club and obviously he did not get it. By mutual consent as the extremely short sentence on the official website finally declared. I don’t for a second believe he was fired; none of the facts support this. José left on his own accord because he did not feel he was getting the backing he was due and should have had from a better board and management. I am in shock because I admired José so much and I had such hopes that he would be for Chelsea what Sir Alex has been for Man U. That was not to be.
I want to wish José the best luck possible wherever he now turns up. I doubt he will take on an English club, that doesn’t fit the image and opinion I have of the man. He would not do that to Chelsea fans. I think José Mourinho is the best manager in the world and for him to leave my beloved club…
That there is a big game on Sunday, that just is football and I think we will win it. After that I have no idea what will happen to Chelsea FC. Good luck José! You walk out from Chelsea as a millionaire!
p/s: I still True Blue, but not a happy one right now.
