The surprise news of the day has to be the departure of Jose Mourinho from Chelsea last night?
We all know about Mourinho's record - joined Chelsea in June 2004 and led them to the Premiership title in each of his first two seasons as well as winning domestic cups, etc.
Avram Grant is due to be announced as the Mourinho's replacement and when you look at his track record it leaves you in no doubt that Roman Abramovich will be picking the team from now on.
Shevchenko will be pleased.
Perhaps, after the press conference speech about eggs earlier this week, the Chelsea board thought Mourinho was cracking up and going beyond a yolk? Perhaps they feared someone would try to poach him? Perhaps they thought he was a 'Grade A' plonker?
Either way, they have decided en-oeuf was en-oeuf.
Whatever your opinions on the 'Special One', there is no denying that his comments and humour will be missed from the English game.
Unless he goes to Spurs...

Jose won't go to Spurs.
According to sources, Juande Ramos was seen in North London last night. A coincidence? I don't think so.
So it looks like Jose will have to look elsewhere.
Damn right Jose wont be gonig to Spurs.
Those reports suggesting such did make me laugh.
Jose will end up at somewhere like Barcelona taking Fat rank with him.
Or perhaps managing the Portugal national team.
Who reckons Jose will turn up at Old Trafford next to Richard Keys and Jamie Redknapp on Sunday?
Good shout, that man!
Or rather, Good shout, Duffman!
It'll be the battle of the suits, in glorious high definition (for an extra £10 per month)
By the way, folks - I think Smart meant 'Fat Frank' in his first comment above. At least I *think* that's what he meant...
I think you're right, Duffman. Sky are no slouches when it comes to snapping up out-of-work ex-managers. Why do you think George Graham appears every other week?!?
Lol - yes I did mean Frank, but Im liking my error that little bit more :o)
