in the last 24 hours, two of the three big clubs fired their coaches. it was quite an interesting night; let's see what happens now.

i think mourinho got what he wanted. his indifferent attitude before almost every game and his blatant mockery of his own team, fenerbahçe, were causing a stir. he'll receive a hefty severance package for being fired, but i don't know what good that does fenerbahçe. they brought him in with high hopes, he openly mocked them, and now he's leaving with a suitcase full of money. after all, what was the point of firing mourinho after they were eliminated by benfica?

i think fenerbahçe will choose a turkish head coach next so they can compete in the league. the same goes for beşiktaş. these two teams change coaches quite frequently.
I didn't see this coming and I do not support Mourinho's actions. If the board aren't giving him the financial support to get the right players, he should have just quit and not badmouth them during a press conference.

"During the transfer window and especially in the press conference before the Benfica game, Mourinho criticized the board, the transfer policy, and the quality of the squad. The combination of the sporting crisis at the beginning of the season and the internal unrest led to Mourinho's dismissal.”
