Forget the Liverpool game on Saturday, Jose Mourinho risks losing his job tonight if he will not get a positive result against Stoke City in Capital One Cup round of 16 clash. Blues have endured a terrible spell under Mourinho and his antics off the pitch have made the owners very wary and want him out if results do not improve.
Leading British newspaper have gone on to report the possible sack news if Jose does not get a positive result against Liverpool this weekend, however, one cannot help but think that his job will come under huge threat if Stoke manages to beat the Blues tonight.
Stoke have brought some exceptional players over the summer and the Potters will have Bojan Krkic and Xherdan Shaqiri in their ranks who can really hurt an opponent. Stoke have been in very nice form lately, winning 3 of their las 4 matches which cannot be a good news for Chelsea.
Round of 16 clash is a knock-out one, which needs to be settled on the night and regardless of the nature of ill-result, if Chelsea get beat tonight, Mourinho might not even survive until the weekend to take charge against Liverpool. Its high time, Special One pulls something out his hat to turn things around.
