nigelquelch Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Granted they have been taken over by a tycoon, and predicted 5th in the premiership behind Chelsea (me), City, United and Arsenal. But this still made me laugh. http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l266/nigelquelch/josereading.jpg Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Osmann Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Chelsea were a nobody when Mourinho took over. Correction 'Chelsea were a nobody when Roman took over.' Whats Reading's reputation? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nigelquelch Posted January 11, 2009 Author Share Posted January 11, 2009 Correction'Chelsea were a nobody when Roman took over.' Whats Reading's reputation? Continental. With estimated value of 115m and rich financial status. The Carling Cup semi final draw just took place, Reading vs Chelsea, inevitable really.

IbrahimAliMaher Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 On my FM08 game he's been unemployed for 4 years since leaving Chelski. I haven't even seen him be considered for some big jobs that have been going - Man Yoo, Chelski, Real Madrid (!). Scolari is about to retire as Portugal coach though, surely he'll get that job?! If not there are rumours my biggest rivals Inter are about to sack Mancini (not likely though)... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzy38 Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Chelsea were a nobody when Mourinho took over. This is so wrong, you must have a short-term memory. When Mourinho was hired, Chelsea had become an immediate force in Europe with just 1 season and had a mind-blowing, near infinite amount of money, something English football had never seen the likes of. It was a major turning point in English football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nigelquelch Posted January 12, 2009 Author Share Posted January 12, 2009 UPDATE: Mourinho's job status is 'precarious' after only a month in charge as Reading are sitting in a lowly 18th after pre-season hopes of a top 5 finish. This Hong Kong tycoon is an impatient one, so it seems. He brings in Ricardo Quaresma on loan and spends 12m on Artem Milevskyi to try and save the situation.

Micado Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 He brings in Ricardo Quaresma on loan That is also something really nice, is still on contract at Inter? Then a loan move to Reading, must have Mourinho as fav staff I guess Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
