Today there's rumours boehly and eghbali are not in good terms
Players not happy with lack of tactics given by poch
Concerns over poch and his affiliation to spurs is against him
Owners are content with signings made under directors
When clubs in the mess it is, it's easy for these rumours to start, but of all the rumours, the one the owners are happy with the squad built so far is the most laughable, if it's true and there happy not of gotten in proven goalscorer in 3 windows then there's no hope for the summer.

Beg to bring Mr Mourinho back, and follow him to the ends of the earth.

Standard, you remember how Mourinho's sevond term finished and you still want him back, are you his bank manager by any chance?

Bill, watch the games we had when mourinho left compared to now. We were losing yes, but the passion and effort was there. I don't care about being a poor side, as long as effort and passion is there. This current crop couldn't give a toss.

How would that help Standard if we lost with Mourrinho? .
We need a coach who will pick a team and formation to win games.

I actually think the most interesting detail in these reports is the rumours of tension between Boehly and Eghbali.
I have long suspected that Boehly wanted to buy into the Premier League for the glory as much as anything, while Eghbali and the rest of Clearlake saw it as a good commercial opportunity - I think now they would be happy to rid themselves of the club if possible. Boehly is certainly a less conspicuous presence now that he was a year ago.
It seems to me that the reason there is no immediate pressure on the SDs is because whether they are producing on the pitch or not, the squad is full of sellable assets since they are all young and by most accounts on lower end wages relative to their transfer fees. That could well have ultimately been their brief to deliver on. No one in the media is really talking about it from this angle, it's all just derivative 'Boehly is an idiot who thought he could outsmart the league'.

The passion and effort absolutely was not there when Jose got sacked in his second spell. He lost the players, they stopped playing for him and we finished 10th after winning the league. Jose will always be loved at Chelsea but I think it would be a dangerous appointment right now.

Mourinho is interested in MUFC job. He is not interested in Chelsea.

And Chelsea are not interested in him either therefore all good.
