Special One, sacked twice: Jose Mourinho fired by Chelsea again

The inevitable has finally happened. Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has been sacked in the middle of a disappointing 2015-16 season, reported Mail Online.

The Portuguese had guided Chelsea to the Premier League title in May, but Monday's 1-2 loss to Leicester City which was their ninth of the campaign, and which left them just a point above relegation in the 16th place was the final nail in the coffin of the self proclaimed 'special one'.

Mourinho even oversaw Thursday's training session at Chelsea's practise ground. He was ready to open talks over a financial settlement to seal his exit after the defeat at West Ham at the end of October. The Portuguese now has seen his second spell at Stamford Bridge come to an end. 

Mourinho blamed his players after the Leicester defeat, but Roman Abramovich decided he had to go this time.  But having only signed a new four-year-deal in the summer, there is likely to be conflict over the severance package offered by Chelsea. It is the second time Mourinho has left Stamford Bridge under a cloud after ending his first spell as Blues boss in 2007.

Incidentally Chelsea have entered the last 16 stage in the Champions league and has fared  very well in that competition.
