Yeah. He pretty much said that he won't resign yesterday, so if they want rid, there is only one option.
Mourinho to United, surely?
Moyes...

Think they're also a centre back and a midfielder short of the 90 points you seem to need to win the league.
It's official, he's back at Chelsea:

Brilliant 😆
😆
Grauniad poll on which of the three big four managerial appointments is the biggest success has Mourinho / Moyes / Pellegrini running 42 / 38 / 20%.
Would've had them in the opposite order myself.

Grauniad
That is one heck of an impressive typo!
It's an accepted nickname given because of the Guardian's propensity for typos.
Ah bugger, never heard or seen that before. 😆
😆 I thought everyone knew that one. I think it was in The Book of Heroic Failures if anyone remembers that.

I would swap Moyes and Pellegrini there.

Well they'll get that now.

And a top class manager......
If Chelsea don't win the league this year do you think he'll be sacked?
Would be well funny.
I'd really love to see him flop massively. It'll be interesting to see who they sign. They need a few players to compete for the league. As do City. I could see both of them going mental this summer with massive priced signings.
Hope Hulk is their mega signing.
If Rooney is on the market they will sign him.

Well lets just say for the sake of argument that we don't win the league next year.......it'll be either Utd City or them, who would you consider the lesser evil?
