Mourinho parts with Chelsea

Love him or hate him, there is no doubt he brings a comical relief to football fans all over. Put aside his managing skills, Mourinho's been making headlines about sending Christmas Cards, telling people that he is the special one, cursing at his rivals etc etc.



And this morning, Mourinho leaves Chelsea. It might not be a sacking, but he will come down as the first EPL manager to leave the club this season. Honestly the whole thing is quite a shock.

This whole thing started off with the not too good relationship with Rich man Abramovich, last season, signs of him quitting the club was exposed, and in the end he announced that he will be there for the start of the new season. Looks like he's kept his promise.

Then there are the little things that Chelsea's been hiding, including an early exit of Abramovich, and the thing about Michael Ballack. Lets not forget that Shev and Ballack are not really Mourinho's signings. Looks like plenty of happenings in the backroom that didn't become public.

Recent results were also not convincing. 2-0 defeat to Aston Villa, 1-1 draw with Rosenberg, tell the world what you want, but in that office, the word "Crisis" is spelt.

And he's gone.

With the special one gone, don't Chelsea need another special one to take over?

Looks like Avram Grant and assistant manager Steve Clarke will take over, and it looks temporary, until Chelsea employ a proper replacement. Grant is a special one. This fella started managing since he was just 19. Clarke will always be a no.2 in my eyes.

All this happening before the weekend where they play Man Utd. Heh heh.
