Talking with a mate last night and we were saying that right now if Jose Mourinho stated some desire to manage Watford would you straight away sack Zola and hire Mourinho or would you stick with GZ? I said I'd stick with Zola because he's doing a fine job, knows the players etc, but he said you don't turn down the best manager in the world under any circumstances. Thought I'd see what people think, so right now would you have Zola or Mourinho?
Mourinho, as much as he's a **** by definition, is one of the world's best managers currently. That said Zola is such a nice guy and things are clearly working for him. Besides why change something that's working?
Really? If it were a realistic proposition, ie a possibility, then it might be worth taliking about. But it isn't, so it's not.
Mourinho is a great manager, without a doubt, but I don't really care for how his teams tend to play. I like what I've seen of Zola's style, and the players are performing for him. I'm not sure what more we could ask for.
Mourinho because he would ensure success, he's a born winner. Really liked the Inter side he built within 2 years which became European champions. Whilst on the topic I agree he is the best tactician in the game but overall he isn't the best manager in the game and won't be until Fergie retires.
I only put Mourinho because I consider him to be the best but what it really means is "Zola v "The best manager in the world""
i wish my life was simple enough that conundrums like this were filliing my time , these kids dont know how lucky they are
So you have plenty of time to comment 6,636 times on this forum but not enough time to talk about football with your mates?
keep Zola he has really grown on me and i love the way he has turn the playing style in such a short space of time
What is it then? At no point did I say that I thought or dreamt that Jose Mourinho might take over at Watford, it was a hypothetical question to see whether people would rather stick with what's going well or just aim for the very best
I really hope they do away with all of the jokes so that we can concentrate on more threads like this.
