The board have high expectations and you can't blame them when they have spent money like they had, they expect to be winning the top prize like the League Title and the Champions League... Winning 3rd and 4th prize isn't something they will be proud about or consider a succes at all.
If Pool go on and win the CL this wed, they will probably wonder how did Pool manage to do that when they spent lesser than one quarter of what they spent...
And i guess it does not help when Jorge Valdano described their football as "it's a s*** hanging from a stick" ... It probably made Roman unhappy, Roman wants to win and win playing pretty football.
Probably the only reason jose is still there could be because Klinsmann turned down the job offer... So is seems Jose is still there by default.
JOSE GIVEN ONE MORE YEAR?
Jose Mourinho will get one more year to deliver more trophies and more entertaining football, according to reports. The Chelsea boss has been given a reluctant vote of confidence by the Stamford Bridge board, who will not back him with cash this summer. The Sun says that 'the board are "disappointed" and believe Mourinho had enough resources to win the Champions League. They also want to see their side play more attractive football'. Mourinho apparently wants to buy Blackburn striker Benni McCarthy but will be told that the £8m asking price is too steep.
He will instead by limited to free transfers Steve Sidwell and Bayern Munich striker Claudio Pizarro, while Alex will be recalled from his loan spell at PSV to be the cover they desperately need in central defence. if Mourinho fails to deliver the Champions League, or at least the Premiership, next season, his reign will come to an end after four tumultuous years.
