Invalid and biased point of view most of the time.
I dunno why u ppl bother to reply at all man.
haha yea i agree and if i rmb correctly Mourinho said sth bout he respectin Fergie...but however ppl might say that Ferguson is arrogant, did he point his finger to shut the liverpool fans?Even though Liverpool are man u's traditionally greatest rivals?Players and managers shud at least giv some respect to other clubs.And even Officials too.It's common for a manager to say that the refree made a few mistakes but Mourinho actually went to such an extent that he said he saw Anders Frisk talkin with Frank Rijkaard in the refree's room. He even went to say that Anders Frisk has 'adulterated' the game, which lead to Chelsea losin 2-1 to Barca for that match.Jus becoz of his insensitive comments, Anders Frisk received death threats and he quit due to the pressure on him.His career was ended due to Mourinho's harsh words on an incident he did not witness with his own eyes.I like Mourinho for his tactics and confidence but these 2 incidents realy turn me off.Originally posted by stellazio:actually mourinho and fergie are good friends..they respect each other and drink lotsa wine together..just that for the sake of his own job and man utd,fergie's selling his soul to the devil for one day..![]()
But not many so called soccer fans know that. I feel that Mourinho is cool, he just does what Fergie doing, and that's really pissed them off. Man Utd deserves that.Originally posted by Marco_Simone:Actually Mourinho is not as stuck up as you think-outside his football life that is.During the international fixture break in March this year when Chelsea was not playing,he went to Palestine to conduct a footie clinic and leadership/motivational workshop for Israeli and Palestinian kids.At the end of the 3 day camp,the kids' impression of the man was a very favorable one.Indeed,some of them said he is a very caring and humble person.

but anders frisk did admit that he spoke with rijkaard but he just propmtly told him to go back to his own dressing room..Originally posted by lpx88:haha yea i agree and if i rmb correctly Mourinho said sth bout he respectin Fergie...but however ppl might say that Ferguson is arrogant, did he point his finger to shut the liverpool fans?Even though Liverpool are man u's traditionally greatest rivals?Players and managers shud at least giv some respect to other clubs.And even Officials too.It's common for a manager to say that the refree made a few mistakes but Mourinho actually went to such an extent that he said he saw Anders Frisk talkin with Frank Rijkaard in the refree's room.

Imagining Mourinho taking over Vince in the ring.Originally posted by Marco_Simone:U noe those WWE wrestlers in the ring always hao lian/very guai lan right? Well once outside the ring,they are actually very down to earth and nice guys.
I think Mourinho is something like this

Regarding Ranieri winning the title if he had stayed for one more season, I beg to defer. A well liked manager he is, but a manager to bring success even with a blank cheque book he is not. The moment Valencia (Spanish League Winners and UEFA cup Winners under Benitez) appointed him I knew that it will be hard for them to win the La Liga again least the UEFA cup. Indeed Valencia finished bottom of the CL group and was not even in the top 4 of La Liga come the end of the season. When Benitez left Valencia, the situation is different from when Mourinho left Porto. Following Mourinho's departure, core players from the CL winning side Deco, Cavarlho as well as Paolo Feriara lef the club as well. But for Valencia, no players left, unless for those snubbed by Ranieri. Ranieri is quite a good manager, but he doesnt have enough quality to bring a team to another level, one look at his track record(before he came to Chelsea) says it all. Well just my humble opinionOriginally posted by aTasteOfVintage:You've simply answered yourself within your 1st paragraph. Proud, arrogant. That's why so many fans dislike him.
You just don't go saying publicly you want to win the league before Christmas, or that players are cheating, referees are dishonest, stuffs like that.
There is no doubt that Mourinho is an intelligent manager in terms of football. In fact, I think he is probably one of the better managers at player management . But however intelligent you may be, if you're an arrogant brat, it's always going to be hard getting people to like you.
Honestly, Ferguson and Wenger aren't much better themselves. Ferguson is not unfamiliar with the media bashings and clashes with other managers. Wenger, I still remember the invincible tag he labelled on his Arsenal side not long ago, only to be gunned down and lost the title that very season. Shades of arrogance coming in flashes from the Arsenal manager.
If you've been a football fan long enough, you'll realised that its usually Mourinho, Sir Alex and Wenger that land themselves in trouble with the FA, press or amongst themselves. That's ought to say something doesn't it?
Oh and btw, I seriously do feel that an unlimited transfer budget was actually a major reason behind Mourinho winning the League. If Ranieri had stayed one more season, I believed that he would have won the League too. Seriously.![]()
