Just like how everyone reported Redknapp was a shoe-in for the England job? :lol
It's not going to be Mourinho though. They're looking for someone long-term and let's face it, Mourinho is a mercenary. A beautiful mercenary.

I know, this was just to make fun of the unreal expectations of some of the BVB fans.
Just because they setup themselves as the big likeable club in germany (which is not that hard...) most of them forget that it is still a company.
On Ryan Giggs "I remember the first time I saw him. He was 13 and just floated over the ground like a cocker spaniel chasing a piece of silver paper in the wind."
On Gary Neville "If he was an inch taller he'd be the best centre-half in Britain. His father is 6ft 2in I'd check the milkman."
On Paul Ince "I used to have a saying that when a player is at his peak, he feels as though he can climb Everest in his slippers. That's what he was like."
On Italians "When an Italian tells me it's pasta on the plate I check under the sauce to make sure. They are the inventors of the smokescreen."
On the 1999 Champions League triumph "I can't believe it. I can't believe it. Football. Bloody hell."
On media criticism of Juan Sebastián Verón "On you go. I'm no fucking talking to you. He's a fucking great player. Yous are fucking idiots."
On Liverpool "My greatest challenge is not what's happening at the moment, my greatest challenge was knocking Liverpool right off their fucking perch. And you can print that."
On the 2003 title race "It's getting tickly now squeaky-bum time, I call it."
On kicking a boot into David Beckham's face in 2003 "It was a freakish incident. If I tried it 100 or a million times it couldn't happen again. If I could I would have carried on playing!"
On Filippo Inzaghi "That lad must have been born offside."
On Arsène Wenger "They say he's an intelligent man, right? Speaks five languages. I've got a 15-year-old boy from the Ivory Coast who speaks five languages!"
On his former charges as managers "It can be difficult to pinpoint who would make it as a manager. For instance, nobody here thought Mark Hughes would become a manager, never in a million years, and we all thought Bryan Robson was a certainty to be a top manager."
On the referee Alan Wiley "The pace of the game demanded a referee who was fit. It is an indictment of our game. You see referees abroad who are as fit as butcher's dogs. We have some who are fit. He wasn't fit. He was taking 30 seconds to book a player. He was needing a rest. It was ridiculous."
On José Mourinho "He was certainly full of it, calling me boss and big man when we had our post-match drink after the first leg. But it would help if his greetings were accompanied by a decent glass of wine. What he gave me was paint-stripper."
On Rafael Benítez, reacting to the Spaniard's infamous 'facts' press conference "I think he was an angry man. He must have been disturbed for some reason. I think you have got to cut through the venom of it and hopefully he'll reflect and understand what he said was absolutely ridiculous."
On whether Liverpool would win the title in 2007 "You must be joking. Do I look as if I'm a masochist ready to cut myself? How does relegation sound instead?"
On Old Trafford "The crowd were dead. It was like a funeral out there."
On Manchester City's Carlos Tévez poster "It's City isn't it? They are a small club, with a small mentality. All they can talk about is Manchester United, that's all they've done and they can't get away from it."
On City again "Sometimes you have a noisy neighbour. You cannot do anything about that. They will always be noisy. You just have to get on with your life, put your television on and turn it up a bit louder."
On Wayne Rooney's transfer request "Sometimes you look in a field and you see a cow and you think it's a better cow than the one you've got in your own field. It's a fact. Right? And it never really works out that way."
On Cristiano Ronaldo to Real Madrid "Do you think I would enter into a contract with that mob? Absolutely no chance. I would not sell them a virus. That is a 'No' by the way. There is no agreement whatsoever between the clubs."
On Manchester United's 19th league title "It's not so much passing Liverpool. It's more important that United are the best team in the country in terms of winning titles."
And on their 20th "Look at me it's taken 10 years off me today. It's these tablets, they're great!"
My favourite FergieXI? Van der Sar; Neville, Ferdinand, Vidic, Irwin; Ronaldo, Scholes, Keane, Giggs; van Nistelrooy, Yorke

My favourite FergieXI? Van der Sar;
I see Moscow, Rome and Aguero.
Yorke, Ruud?
It's Mou.@MarkKleinmanSky
Another point about #MUFC succession: the deal with replacement for Sir Alex Ferguson is already done and has been approved by club's board.
02 - England going out the World Cup. 04 - going out of the Euros. 06 - when Rooney broke his foot against Chelsea just before the WC lol.
Didi Hamann ‏@DietmarHamann 1h
I wouldn't put anyone off backing Klopp.With his squad getting raided it might be a good time to jump ship.
looool, fuck Hamann #TeamBarton
None after the 2010 final
Why would he care if Bayern lose
None after the 2010 final
Not Peter Schmeichel? Wat?

Trust me, You'll be crying again in 2014 and 2016.

I may laugh my arse off if Giggs becomes player/manager.
Would Moyes to United make English football explode? The way that reporter said it made it seem like it'll be something unexpected.
How long does Moyes have left on his deal? Is he free in the summer?

I thought so. Maybe I'm missing something, bit that doesn't really add up with this.
Why would Moyes need to negotiate termination of something that ends in a months time?
