I'm very happy at Inter. I'm not happy in Italian football. Why? Because I don't like it and they don't like me. Simple." (Jose Mourinho)
Can't say that I've ever liked Jose Mourinho but there's no doubting his talent as a manager and you have to admit there's never a dull moment when he's around. I'd be very surprised if he doesn't turn up at a Premier League club this summer.
One thing I do like about him is that he's never afraid to speak his mind is he! Its not as though he's doing badly at Internazionale this season either with them top of the Italian Serie A table, in the semi-finals of the Coppa Italia as well as through to the last 8 of the Champions League. It just seems as though he doesn't get the love from the press in Italy as he did back in the U.K. Either that or he misses the weather?
I'd be a fool if I said I didn't want to see him as the next Liverpool manager but it seems very unlikely in the current climate. This is football though, who knows
I'd say it isn't too unlikely. He clearly wants to get back into English, or possibly Spanish, football and the two most likely places would be Man City or Liverpool. If City get into the top 4 then they're going to find it hard justifying sacking Mancini and Benitez will surely have to go? Hope may not be lost for you :)
