Where will Jose be next season?

gimmick

Following his comments about "unfinished business" in England, it is obvious that he will one day be back in England. But when, and with whom?

Will Fergie step aside if he sees the right man available?

Will Man City go for him should they fail to qualify for the CL?

Will Roman eat some humble pie and get the man best equipped to get them his ultimate grail?

Or will he stay put at Real?

My guess would be Ancellotti will be out on his ass after winning nothing and Jose will resume control at the club he should have never been sacked from.

Blatter

Man Utd

I presume he will stay at Madrid.

If they sack Jose, the chances of them matching Barcelona in the league and winning the CL are only going to get slimmer.

It's downhill after Jose, I'm afraid. There's no better manager available.

Man Utd

I read in the Guardian last week that it would cost Real 60m to sack him and if a club were to come in for him this summer, it would cost the incoming club 20m.

Can't see it happening this season I'm afraid.

I do think Jose wants the United job - or else go back to Chelsea. The Man City job? I don't think so, but only because I believe he wants the United job so bad.

He will prob stay at Real another season (Specially if Barac win the league) and then we wait and see what happens with Fergie next season.

He has, apparently, already patched things up with Abramovic, so when he goes back i reckon it will be to Chelsea.

the way jose should see it is this.... Barca's core (minus messi) is aging. His core (minus Carvalho) is just coming into its prime.

In 2/3 years the current Real Team will be a lot stronger than the current Barca's team, provided they get the right people in to strengthen certain areas.

But Di Maria - Ozil - ronaldo - Higeuin are just going to get better and better as a group where as Xavi - Puyol - Abidal - Alves - Villa are all on the down turn.

Either at Real, or else as a wildcard choice, I'll go for Bayern.

It's a good point but 2/3 years is way beyond the limits of the Real owner's patience.

Hopefully he stays where he is so we don't have to listen to his claptrap.

I think he will be at Real next season, but does anyone else think his next job might be Bayern? To kill time until Fergie retires. One of Europe's powerhouses with the history, fans and resources to attract him. And greatness intrigues him IMO, another league championship + Champions League in a different country to add to his collection would make him possibly the greatest of all time.

No, he said his next job will be in England.

I don't think the German league would interest him tbh.

There are far bigger challenges out there, and he has said he wants to get back to England ASAP anyhow.

But then again, there is the attraction you have pointed out.

Yeah, Graham Hunter said it on Revista de La Liga and I think Sid Lowe said it on Football Weekly too.

I think Real will win or 2 trophies this season.

Barca won't beat them in 4 of 4 matches (I'm assuming both Barca and Real will beat Shakthar and Spurs btw)

I have to agree, and anyone thinking that they would get thumped at the Nou Camp again if they meet in the CL is deluded.

I can't see their players or Mourinho letting it happen again and Barca haven't hit that sort of form in a long time either.

Another year or two in Spain, then to Liverpool.

eugeneious

Chelsea

Can't see him leaving Madrid without winning CL and or La Liga tbh and i think he wants the Utd job.... It's the club that most suits him and i think i remember reading something about a clause in his Madrid contract allowing him to join Utd for no compensation but i may be wrong.

Man Utd

He'll stay, and manage to convince them to let him buy some defensive players. They'll be unstoppable then. With a home record like it is this season, sorting out the away performances could have him looking realistically for 34/35 wins in the league next season.

Pretty sure that both sides are allowed to walk away at the end of the season without any financial penalty. Almost certain that I read as much in numerous Spanish media sources.

I think he'll stay at Real for another year then either United or City.

Jupp Heynckes will take over at Bayern in the summer.

Sgt Pepper 64

He'll stay at RM

Man U - they are broke and unlikely to afford the sort of players he would want.
Chelsea - been there done that, too much water under the bridge, and annoys Roman by attracting too much bad publicity as well as negative football
Man City - football wouldnt be an improvement on whats there now, plus the bad publicity etc
