Chelsea football club manager Jose Mourinho has left the club. It's not a surprise. He was not allowed to run the club the way he wanted. He could not choose who to buy and, more importantly, who not to buy. Good luck to him. He was fun and a likeable and capable manager.
On the other hand this is superb news for fans of Chelsea F.C. (I don't support Chelsea). Mourinho is more suited to getting smaller clubs with average players to gel as a team and punch above their weight. His style of grinding results out didn't suit a team full of superstars. If I was Abramovich I would want to spend my money on a team of galacticos. A bit like Real Madrid from a few seasons back. They might not consistently win as much but they would be much better to watch. Which is what Chelsea are for Abramovich; entertainment.
The future for the club looks bright. They are in a far better position than in the bad old days of Ken Bates etc. And that is solely down to Abramovich and not Mourinho. It will be interesting to see who they get in to manage them and if they now go on to build a team around Ronaldinho and Shevchenko. Chelsea should be a team of galacticos. With Mourinho gone they might now go on to become this. Better to lose in style.
