Number six. No, I don't neccessarily think the present team would do better under Mourinho. I think he would sign players & improve it, as Mancini will have to. This squad does not have the type of players to play like a Mourinho team.
Jose's players will run through walls for him. That, along with the quality of squad he would inherit should take the club to the next level. All this about bringing new players in and having to rebuild is horse shit. He is the one man on the planet who guarantees to get more out of the players already there.
I also dont subcribe to the boring defensive manager - jesus yes he knows how to beat teams superior to his own, and those games arent pretty, but his chelsea side scored a bagful and got a record points haul. I believe in terms of squad quality we are in the same spot chelsea were at the summer jose joined.
His transfer dealings are pretty poor on the whole, but if he came, balotelli would go, ade would return, tevez may even stay, all of which would be fine with me. Only minor surgery needed in the playing staff department.
