For many, the Special One is now little more than a relic of a bygone era. And the reaction online has been brutal.\u00a0<\/p>\n

@JOGOBONlTO sneered on X: \u201cWhy is Mourinho doing this? He just needs to accept his career is over and sit on Sky with Carragher and Keane.\u201d<\/p>\n

Another fan @NanaYawOp was even harsher: \u201cWe all know they\u2019ll sack him after six months.\u201d<\/p>\n

@Yacine_mnrd mocked Benfica\u2019s decision, with one writing: \u201cMourinho is outdated. He won\u2019t save Benfica \u2013 Sporting will still walk the league \ud83d\ude02\ud83d\ude02.\u201d<\/p>\n

@IamBradleyCarl\u00a0came up with the most cutting verdict of all: \u201cMourinho will be sacked after 10 games and he’ll collect another \u20ac12 million pay cheque. A business man\ud83d\ude02\ud83e\udd1c\ud83c\udfff\ud83e\udd1b\ud83c\udffe.”<\/p>\n

Whereas, @thfcaditya_v3, wrote: “At some point when will football clubs stop hiring Mourinho and accept that dude is washed.”\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
