At the age of sixty in May, Portuguese Jose Mourinho triumphed in the English Premier League with London's Chelsea club and gifted the club the country's champions title after a 5-year break.
It seemed that the golden times of Chelsea were just beginning, but the first half of the 2015-2016 season is just a disaster for the "aristocrats".
After playing a quarter of the championship, J. Mourinho's pupils have only collected 11 points and are in an unusual 15th position.
It is reported that the patience of Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich towards the Portuguese has almost run out.
Both personalities in the past did not hide warm relationships with each other and always expressed support in difficult situations. However, it seems that Jose's fate is really hanging by a thread.
According to sources, J. Mourinho's future at Chelsea will be decided after this Saturday's match with Liverpool, led by Jurgen Klopp.
It is said that if J. Mourinho is fired, his successor would be either Carlo Ancelotti or Guus Hiddink.
