2. Roman Abramovich Could Keep His Pride
If theres one thing Roman Abramovich hates doing, its admitting to a mistake. When he sanctioned the £30 million move for AC Milans Andriy Shevchenko, many thought Chelsea had made the signing of the season. He had enjoyed a goal-laden spell in Italy, but his time in the Premier League was woeful and his reputation left in tatters. Similarly, the £50 million move for Fernando Torres was partly influenced by Abramovich, and that too was a disastrous move not that youll ever hear the Russian tycoon admit as much. You see, he is immensely stubborn. Thats why going back in for Mourinho as his next manager would contradict his personality by doing so, hed be admitting to the world that he made a mistake in letting the Portuguese go and that simply cant be allowed to happen. Going for Jurgen Klopp would be a smart bet, and Abramovichs pride and reputation would stay intact.
