What kind of a licensee do you think Jose Mourhino would make?

Peter Gatling

Merry Harriers

Clayhidon

Devon

I think he would make a terrific licensee. I think he's got good man-management skills and a sunny disposition. He would probably rub a few people up the wrong way if they didn't support his point of view. It would have to be a pub full of special people to make him feel comfortable. I wonder what type of food he would serve? Perhaps tapas-style dishes.

John Ellis

Crown Inn

Oakengates

Shropshire

Who? I neither know of him or care who he is. I'm in Shropshire, why should I care about Chelsea? All I think about Premiership footballers and managers is that they are all overpaid prima donnas and we would be better off without them. They don't work hard enough to be a licensee.

Steve Murphy

Church House Inn

Bollington

Cheshire

It would certainly be interesting and it would be a lively pub, for sure. He would stand no nonsense. I think it would be entertaining as he has an opinion on most things. I saw him on TV and he was going on about how wonderful his life is, which seems a strange and long-winded way to answer the question, "How are you?" It would be good fun with him.

Graham Yates

Brunswick Inn

Derby

Derbyshire

I think he would lose it when he couldn't afford to. In this business, there are certain situations when you feel like giving someone a slap and you can't. In terms of personality, he would do all right and he has a wide knowledge of football, which is always useful for the bar chat. But in terms of temperament, I think he would struggle.
