Alas, poor José, we knew him well. Binned before many fans even had a chance to barrack him at a live game.
The well-renowned reporter Fabrizio Romano has revealed that José Mourinho was not sacked in relation to his opposition to the European Super League as reported by some moody social media account but based upon his results.
The dismissal of Mourinho was inevitable and as I mentioned after the Everton game, what we witnessed in the press conferences was precisely the same tone from José as we got Pochettino just before he was fired from Daniel Levy’s HR cannon.
What is intriguing about Levy’s decision is the timing. The appointment of Ryan Mason for the Carabao Cup final points to the limited immediate options.
