I admittedly hate the guy. He is an arrogant prick who thinks he is Gods gift to football.I Wear Pants;1608074 wrote:His likely reaction to that:
But it does seem like a good amount of soccer fans feel like this in regards to Mourinho:

But, he DEFINITELY cares that people dont like him. He has admitted that it bothers him.
That doesnt mean he isnt a prick.ohiobucks1;1608116 wrote:He's a legend. Plain and simple. Won everywhere he's gone. UCL, Leagues, Cups, EVERYTHING. The man is a tactical/motivational genius.

And, he has also fallen flat everywhere leading to him having to leave.
EDIT: And his stint at Real was about as disappointing as anyone could have imagined.
Sorry, but you arent at Madrid to win titles 1 time in 3 years.ohiobucks1;1608124 wrote:"Mourinho had won every domestic title available for a manager in the Spanish top division within two years"
He also had the best winning % of his career at Real. Over 70% wins.

I don't care what Madrid fans thought. They obviously were going to side with Ronaldo in the Mourinho v Ronaldo fights. I think he did pretty well. That Barca team is considered by many to have been the best club team of all time for those 3-5 years. Even considering, won his fair share. Sure it wasn't up to par with what any of us expect of him, but it certainly wasn't as gloom as some people like to say.Laley23;1608140 wrote:Sorry, but you arent at Madrid to win titles 1 time in 3 years.
11 total chances. He got 3 of them... There is a reason Madrid fans wanted him out all of last year.
And the wins arent really that impressive. What did Pep do? Just curious. Cause until last year, those were the only 2 teams with any significance, and Jose couldnt beat Barca when it mattered it seems
You know, Im really not sure what we are debating lol.ohiobucks1;1608194 wrote:I don't care what Madrid fans thought. They obviously were going to side with Ronaldo in the Mourinho v Ronaldo fights.

Fact remains, he's won literally everything imaginable everywhere he went. There's maybe 3 managers I think are in his company in the world right now, Pep being one of them.
Fair, but Chelsea #1 was Abromovich, and Inter was his own choice. I'll give you real. I don't think he's a prick though. He's narcissistic, but i've always thought he seemed like a pretty fun guy to be around.Laley23;1608259 wrote:You know, Im really not sure what we are debating lol.
I think he is a fantastic coach, and his accolades say that. I also think he is a prick, based on his actions and the way he talks about himself and his teams. He is a great coach, one of the top 3 in the game, but there is something behind his falling out at Chelsea (RD1), Inter and Madrid.
The fact he anointed himself "The Chosen One" and then "The Special One" is enough to make anyone puke lolol
You were saying he kinda stunk at Real relative to his self-annointment and Ohiobucks disagreed and I think you're both right because you both brought up good points.Laley23;1608259 wrote:You know, Im really not sure what we are debating lol.
Yeah, Real were almost in a no win situation. Barca during that 5ish year span was the best we have ever seen, probably.lhslep134;1608341 wrote:You were saying he kinda stunk at Real relative to his self-annointment and Ohiobucks disagreed and I think you're both right because you both brought up good points.
At Real he still won some titles, but couldn't beat Barca, but Barca during those years was one of the greatest stretches of club play in history so that has to mean something.
I see what youre saying. I just remember the Real teams in the 00s that couldnt win anything and dont consider at least one title a year a failure. Not his best, sure. But nothing to say "he's not special" because of.Laley23;1608351 wrote:Yeah, Real were almost in a no win situation. Barca during that 5ish year span was the best we have ever seen, probably.
But, at the same time, Real was loaded. Easily a top 5 club in the world during those years and he only managed 3/11 titles. That is always going to be a disappointment at Real. The only league where you can get away with that as a top club is the EPL, because its deeper, and much harder to win something every year. But at Real, Barca, Milan, Inter, Bayern, etc...if you go 0-fer in a given season, you are gonna feel the heat as a "failure"
