I would usually be inclined to agree - especially for his previous stints. But when Mourinho re-signed, he used the term "dynasty" - which makes me think that around 5 months ago, that was the feeling around the club. He'd be staying for a long time, bringing up youngsters etc... The length of the contract - even the obscene payout of 50 million Euros - suggests the club and the coach agreed this would be a "project". And perhaps that explains why there were fewer signings, and certainly less glamorous ones.
