eaimua Posted January 10, 2008 Author Share Posted January 10, 2008 It's a little bit weird; he doesn't even get mentioned on any manager shortlist. And I'm running the top 6 leagues in europe. It's 2011 and all the big clubs have changed their manager at least once. Mourinho was never approached... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roger Hunt Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Same in mine and his stats are fantastic, lots of 20s. Maybe he's too expensive? Just tried to get him as my assistant manager but no dice. It's 2010 in the game - surely he must have spent his Chelsea wad by now? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skunner Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Same thing in my game, except it's Sir Alex Ferguson. Ever since I started with Man Utd in the first season, he hasn't joined another team, and it's like 2014. Ally Mcoist is the same and Roy Keane got sacked from Sunderland and hasn't found a job. Quite odd. But I can understand about Ferguson. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
si23 Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 On my last 3 games he is always appointed England boss after a bad Euro 08 by McClaren. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Hunt Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 I got SAF sacked by winning the EPL with Liverpool in 2008 and beating Man U 4-1 at OT After that he didn't take another job. But I can understand that because he's retirement age. McLaren is still England boss in 2010 in my game. Maybe Mourinho's waiting for that job. He'll be disappointed - they're obviously going to offer it to me instead Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeturner Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 I have seen this alot too. I think with Ferguson its coded so he retires at the end of 2008/9 season, but Jose never gets hired from what I have seen. Its odd because Benitez, Rijkaard, Van Basten, Ancelotti and mancini all seem to move quite often and there reps / wages are on a par with the special one Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Hunt Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 I wonder if its a glitch caused by the late replacement of Mourinho with Avram Grant (who starts as Chelsea manager rather than coming in after the first couple of games) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As soon as a good manager had been out of work for about a year or longer, they would jump at the opportunity to be an assistant. I had someone like Rafa Benitez as my assistant in one of those games! Now though I do agree that it's gone a bit too far the other way; it's nigh on impossible to do it.
