As expected, Chelsea have confirmed the re-appointment of Jose Mourinho on a four-year contract. The Portuguese manager will return to Stamford Bridge after finishing his stint at Real Madrid only yesterday and fills the vacancy left by Rafa Benitez’s departure to Italian outfit Napoli.

The club’s Chief Executive, Ron Gourlay, announced earlier this afternoon:

“I am delighted to welcome Jose back to Chelsea. His continued success, drive and ambition made him the outstanding candidate.It is our aim to keep the club moving forward to achieve greater success in the future and Jose is our number one choice as we believe he is the right manager to do just that. He was and remains a hugely popular figure at the club and everyone here looks forward to working with him again.”

Mourinho will be presented to the press officially on Monday June 10 and his return to these shores will certainly add a little more spice to the Premier League as the Blues plot to overhaul both Manchester clubs at the top of the table. We’ll have more on Mourinho’s return to Stamford Bridge in a forthcoming “Moving Target†report later in the week.

          It's really hard to say without prices. I'd like to get all 3 but it is probably not possible. I'd probably go without Bale though if I was forced

          Ah thanks, I missed it (bloody work getting in the way!)

          I quite like your approach. It's interesting that RVP and Bale come out so close together on that measurement. It's probably worth crunching the numbers for a larger list of players to get a feel for what a good ratio is, but I reckon anything more than about 1 is probably decent.

          Also, the ratio could change suddenly for an individual player depending on what threshold points figure you use for a successful captain pick. Everyone will have their own views on this - indeed it might vary from week to week depending on form and fixtures or how high scoring any particular week is.

            Can I make a suggestion here.

            An automation of the process would be to calculate standard deviation as before, and by assume normal distribution calculate the probability of exceeding a 6pt threshold in a given week. I think that would act as a measure of consistency, without having to add up scores manually.

              I've decided I'm not a fan of the standard deviation as a measurement of consistency, even if you're using it as the basis for some other calculation.

              The problem is that for a player with a high average score and the ability to score 10+ or even 20+ point gameweeks, you will naturally have a high standard deviation because the possible range of scores in any given gameweek is so much higher than a player who has a low average score. Players like Bale and RVP actually have a pretty high standard deviation because of this.

              Contrast to a defensive mid who only scores either 1, 2 or 3 points every week, they tend to have the lowest (i.e. best) standard deviation.

                I was just thinking the same as you describe Roscloa. There is a bit of a grey area, but generally spekaing you're going to be happy with 6-7 pts plus and unhapppy with 4-5 points or less.

                Once you convert it into a straight either / or option the simple ratio works rather well. It even has a clear meaning (> 1 means more hits than misses).

                  I've thought through a few alternatives to it and gotta say this ratio works as well as any.

          oh dear alang

          Are you looking forward to starting next season with no forwards?

          Liverpool will finish about 10th next season and continue on the slippery slope. Another season of mediocrity beckons.

          Chelsea will be challenging for trophies - which club has the better future?

          Liverpool were a great club, now consigned to history like Huddersfield, Leeds and the like.

              I have heard this ever since he arrived, from desperate fans of other clubs. There is absolutely zero evidence that Abramovich wants out of chelsea - why would he?

              Further down the line - Whats to say he wont pass club onto his children? Or leave money in his will to run club!

                Regardless of what Abramovich wants, things arent that rosy in Russia for him at the moment, so I wouldnt be so confident that he will be able to support Chelsea for that much longer.

                Personally I think there is oil under Stamford Bridge and he is just waiting for planning permission to drill. Then he'll drop the club 🙂

                So your happy supporting a club that is not self sufficient? Do you even know what this means?

                  Justaguy - I cant choose who I support but I am quite happy that the team I support is challenging for trophies. Yes I know what self sufficient means thanks. Worry about your own club's deficiencies!

                  Ginkapo - he has had problems in Russia before and will do again.

                  It is funny how other fans get excited that Abramovich may leave even though there is absolutely nothing to suggest this.

    Despite conceding 2 goals, Hart was exceptional yesterday. Given his age, he could easily go on to become the best keeper in the world. Plenty of time.

      There are plently of spots available still.

      I would wait till isacki's interface goes live soon, and then join a team which is low on numbers. A few teams are going a bit OTT on recruiting and its best to avoid them now.

        Yeah people do need to bear in mind the more players a team has the less of a say you're likely to have in it.

        Unless you're Josef Stalin and build a cult of personality.

        Mmm, hail the Father of the Revolution, Comrade Isacki.

          Mmmm, looking through the clubs it's definitely the smaller clubs with less real life supporters that are finding it tricky to get staff. Just like real life with players eh.

          I'd be tempted to join Norwich if I wasn't an organizer.

              It's about conflict of interest as much as anything. I think the important thing is that I don't see the bids. I will be updating transfers and rounds but maybe I will be insulated from the bids.
