and fonder of wearing a tracksuit on the
touchline but none of that really matters,
for this is a glorious day: daddy's coming
home! Yes, try to contain your surprise at
the news that Real Madrid have let José
Mourinho go after three fairly underwhelming and tempestuous years,
freeing him up for a return to Chelsea.
The first thing on Mourinho's to-do list is to sign Edinson Cavani and he'll have an
added incentive on that front if his old
chum Rafa Benítez accepts Napoli's offer to become their new manager. Indeed the managerial merry-go-round is whirring into action following these latest developments.
Carlo Ancelotti wants to leave PSG and go
to Madrid and the French club are eyeing
up Laurent Blanc and Benítez to replace
the Italian. That's actually the end of the
merry-go-round. An ultimately disappointing and overly familiar ride but
you still owe the Mill £5 for going on it.
Don't make the Mill fetch its shotgun.
Barcelona have decided they could do with some defenders and will chuck £20m at Manchester City for their captain and
philosopher-in-chief Vincent Kompany,
although they'll probably try to shrink him
and convert him into a tippy-tappy
midfielder once he arrives at Camp Nou.
Honestly, you can do anything with
science these days.
Apart from turning Kolo Touré into a
reliable defender, of course, not that
Liverpool are too bothered by that. They
want to sign the part-time car salesman
and occasional City goofball as a
replacement for Jamie Carragher.
With Madrid lining up a £50m bid, Gareth
Bale has told Tottenham he wants a
whopping £200,000 a week to stay after
their failure to qualify for the Champions
League. Luckily Spurs are going to free up some cash by selling Emmanuel Adebayor, Jermain Defoe and Clint Dempsey, with Christian Benteke, Lisandro López and David Villa all catching André Villas-Boas's roving eye.
Hull are also in the market for some
strikers, with Steve Bruce targeting
Blackburn's Jordan Rhodes and Burnley's
Charlie Austin, while Stoke are set for crisis talks with Tony Pulis and want Phil Neville to join them as a first-team coach.
Can't for the arrival of mourinho, the enigma is hat we need at Chelsea
