What is he expecting - Abramovich to sack all the players and give him some new ones!
If they aren't playing for him that is only one persons fault. The way he conducts himself is so unpalatable that as soon as the results drop something like this is going to happen. His usual 3rd season syndrome.
I have been ribbing chelsea fans about their previous relegations and guess what none of them remember it .
Why is that because they are ALL fucking newbies !
to be honest growing up in the 80s I always think of Chelsea as a second tier club anyway (they were mostly in the old second division for most of the early 80s) and so this season it feels like a bit of normality has been restored
Brilliant game last night. Chelsea's implosion is a thing of beauty. It seems that sheer fan power is they only thing keeping Mourinho in his job. Any other manager would have been sacked by now.

With the notable exception of one special special manager....
Its reached the stage that Mourinho must want to be sacked. The players have stopped playing for him, and apart from possibly winning the FA cup this season, their season is a write off. The saving grace for him is the big load of cash on his way when Abromovich finally gets rid of him. I despise Mourinho, but im hoping they stick with him for as long as possible so he can drag them further into mediocrity.
Wenger must be absolutely loving seeing the demise of mourinho. After all the sly comments made by mourinho to wenger about being a specialist of failure and the lack of trophies etc..., wenger must look at the table and think I've never been 1 point from the relegation zone after 16 matches. Hazard just hasn't been the same since the doctor Eva incident, he must've have lost a lot of respect for jose the moment he (jose) slagged her off for treating him (hazard) in the opening game of the season. If they are in the bottom 3 Christmas day , it will really make the season worthwhile.
Not that I think they will really, but I'd hate to see the chavs out of the top 4 like as they were once before, then they fluke a few wins to get the trophy and get back in the CL, Down and out i hope.

I posted this on October 21st......anyone disgaree now ??
I used to say Mourinho was a great man manager well I how can anyone say that now? He is a good but not great man manager. How has he managed to demotivate a group of title winners to relegation candidates in less than a year.
An incredible feat. Mourinho didn't think his long term project through. It was probably the season to use some of the younger players but he let some decent ones leave because he of his impatient nature.
Can you imagine they sacked that horrible c*nt and went on to win the Champions League,the "We did it for Jose" bollocks would just be too much to take,
I have zero doubt in my mind that he is trying to engineer his own sacking and he is trying to see how far he can push abramovich before he gets his p45
