The life cycle for hiring Jose Mourinho as your manager has been pretty well-defined through the years.
First, you win big. He won Chelsea's first two top-division titles in 50+ years in his first two seasons at the club. He won two Serie A titles and a Champions League in two years at Inter. He fielded the most dominant team in La Liga history in his second season at Real Madrid. He won another league title in his second year back at Chelsea. He engineered Manchester United's only top-two finish since Alex Ferguson's retirement in his second season at Old Trafford.
