I fully expect him to get the Chelsea job at the end of the season if he wants it but will he want it if they aren't in Europe?

I wouldn't swap if i was him! Does say on there though he's going to be taking a year out?

I don't know which job is more career threatening, England or Chelsea! :|

Cheers it didn't say a lot when I posted it, must have been updated :ayatollah:

He may plan a year out but money talks and abramovic is happy to spend it.

Isn't he a bit free-spirited for them, though?

Be mad to quit barcelona! He won't get the same sort of successes anywhere else! Its all handed to him on a plate at barca with there brilliant youth setup churning out worldclass players like a conveyor belt who are already skooled in playing the "BARCA" way before he gets his hands on them, all the hard work is done for him, if he goes anywhere else he won't be as spoilt as he is now.

I dunno, they will need a character to replace Fergie and someone who will have instant respect. Mourinho is a huge admirer of Man-u and Fergie.
The other named always mentioned is Moyes but I just cant see it.

Nah Barca will surely go for Rodgers, they play exactly the same football as Swansea after all.

Surely Brenda will go to Barca if Guardiola bails on them?

After all, we're forever being told that the Swans play better football than Barca and that it's all down to Brenda.

Brenda to Barca is a no-brainer surely? :lol:

Not really, his Barca team have always had a massive problem with bus parking and there's not more for him to do there, and his style has been found out lately

Still a good manager, Inter, Chelsea, Spain NT, perhaps even Liverpool all strong possibilities. Either AVB or Pep will be Inter manager by next season, guarantee you.

For me if Pep Guardiola goes...i think Barca will turn to the manager of Ath Bilbao ;)

Nice one, bookmarked that site

Mourinho 33/1 to be Inter manager eh? Considering he had his most successful season there, everyone from the players to Moratti the president loves him, that he was crying when he left..... those are surprisingly long odds

Still reckon AVB is free money though ;)

Most of the bookies take down their prices at around 10.00 pm - and then open up their books in the morning,so you might get a better price on your choice ;)
