Right now, $4.50. Of the other teams that stayed up, only Norwich is shorter at $3.50.

Well Everton get Martinez as well.

Stoke definitely got the worst deal here.

I think Mourinho can realistically win the EPL this year.

I'm not sure about Mourinho winning straight away, that team has been playing in a different (some might argue better) style to his teams for a while now.

I don't see Oscar, Mata & Hazard fitting as well into his system as they did into Rafa's. Nor Torres for that matter.

If he is selling Luiz too, its going to be a bit of a rebuild imo.

I absolutely hope not. I'm willing to cheer any team necessary to make Mourinho not win anything.

If it made any difference I'd even support Man U to stop him... bang

Only just clicked this thread as I assumed it was the American girly version of Rugby, nice to see its the proper sport.

Anyway I agree on the above, anybody but Mourinho (not sure I would go as far as supporting the scum though)

Main thing I am waiting to see is how much Suarez goes for (which I think he will do)

See, here are the problems. Wenger is a colossal, two faced wanker and Arsenal always go on a run of not getting results. Moyes is new to the job and ManU have a weak squad. ManC can't stop infighting and will have a new manager to boot. Whichever way I look at it, Mourinho is going back to a club that he knows, with the core squad still fairly similar to how he left it and the opportunity to rebuild this off-season due to clearing out a few valuable players that other teams are known to want. If there was anybody that I was rooting for to win the league it's probably Tottenham or Everton, and the less said about the bigoted, vile, scumbags that are Liverpool FC and Saurez the better.

Regardless of who you want to win, I think it's reasonable to think that Mourinho has a decent chance of winning the league.
