This is so fuckin' weird man!

Where will Casillas go then? Because he also said that as long as he's the coach, Lopez will always be his first choice

Lopez is a good keeper, but Casillas is arguably the best goalkeeper in the world. I don't know why Mourinho benches him? I'm assuming they've had a falling out?

Mou has always been like that... but he could do the same thing wiht Lopez next season. He washed the dirt off his hands with Casillas this time around but why not doing it with Lopez next season if things get wrong again.
I think he was very wrong to say that considering what Casillas has done for Real. Of course it was personal & had nothing to do with how Real has been doing in his tenure. Come on man.
I hope Casillas leaves though 'cuz it'd be really sad to constantly watch such legend on the bench.

Marca is a pretty important magazine in Spain and one of the most credible magazines in the world, especially when it comes to RM news.

Before Mourinho, Marca used to know every little detail about the club and who's going to come and who's not and who's going to play this match and that match and whatever. A year after he came, he suspected that someone inside the club is giving the press news and stuff about the club. He spent a little time digging and found out that it was Casillas who was giving the press information about the start-up line and players to come/players to go.

After that his stupid girlfriend started talking about how the players hate Mourinho and how Spanish people sit alone and Portuguese players also sit alone in groups. That made Mourinho pissed because Casillas couldn't control his woman (she's still talking shit about him, too).

To Casillas, he felt like he wasn't doing anything wrong because that's the way it's been ever since Marca was created, but Mourinho felt otherwise.

Valdano was kicked out 2 years ago because Mourinho wanted to have full control of the transfer window + the players.

Cheers, very informative.

Pretty interesting article about the comments Mourinho made today. http://www.weaintgotnohistory.com/chels ... id-chelsea

What was said in that article makes sense. Perhaps he will still be leaving Real at the end of the season. I don't know..

Everywhere I am seeing RM fans are saying negative stuff about Mou, trashing him and saying stuff about him that's been said for years by other people... *ahem*.

People are finally realizing how he really is. He just keeps making Real Madrid fans dislike him more and more... Nice manager.

I guess.

I just read this: http://www.marca.com/2013/05/05/en/foot ... 34936.html

Seems like he wants to get away because he isn't idolized in Spain anymore. Going back to England will make him popular again, and they will place him on a throne, which is what he wants. I am sure of it being one of the big reasons.


Can't say I don't understand him, though.

If he really want to get himself fired it'd be more about business. Real will have to pay big amount of money if he was released before his contract expired plus Chelsea won't need to pay to them for him if he was a free agent so he'll have a way bigger share from his new contract as well.
I'm not sure if that's the case but at times we was too arrogant even for himself so it might be the case at least.

I wouldn't be surprised if Roman just paid off Real to release Jose from his contract. He did it with Porto to sign AVB.

I think it'd be really cheesy if he went back to Chelsea. Take on a new challenge, faggot.

Would be funny if he went back to Chelsea and then they would have one of their worst seasons in a long time, lol.

It actually can be considered as a new challenge, the league and our team have changed dramatically since he left.

[SajN]

Plus what Mou said about Iniesta was PRICELESS.

Just shows how butthurt he got just because Iniesta said few good words about Casillas. At least Iniesta is winning La Liga

[SajN]

First season?

[Francesco]

I'm actually convinced Mou is gonna build a really tough Chelsea if he had the chance again. I mean we can't be sure if he'd be successful right away but at least his team is gonna look solid as his teams usually do & they would definitely make it really hard for United & City next season.

Wtf man... Roma won away to Fiorentina in the weekend & today lost to Chievo at home! Fuck that man!

[Francesco]

HOLY SHIT!!! Rumors of Fergie retiring are starting to buzz all over the place

That would be a huge surprise... he said he'll keep going. I hope these rumors are fake.

[Francesco]

I think he will keep going as well, as long as there's no health issues. It'd be pretty weird seeing United with another manager tbh

I agree... that would be weird & I hope there's no health issues too.
