The return of Jose

Welcome back legend.

European football, midweek, under the lights at Stamford Bridge, once a dream scenario for me.

Gawd knows what we are gonna get on Tuesday.

Jose is likely to make mugs of us all.

Probably a must win game if we want to make it into the knockout stages of the Champions league. Certainly a must not lose

 

[Sconnie Blue]

Going to be more crowd cheering from Jose greeting the home fans than from our own performance.

Our performances have been sh*t all season, bar West Ham, why should they be cheered?

The return of Jose

If our play comes even close to resembling the last two games, I can easily see a situation where major sections of the crowd start chanting Mourinho's name. Part of me wouldn't even mind it, I think. How embarrassing f9t this manager, to be at home and your own fans are chanting the name of the opposition manager.

Not losing games rather than trying to win them is the Maresca way, so I expect a VERY dull game.

 

[Munkunku]

Could we just pretend Jose never left & kidnap him?
