merlin Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 Whatever you think of Mourinho as a person nobody can deny that the guy is a great manager. He didn't really have the conventional background for management but has turned out to be a natural. Players obviously want to play for him and that is a large part of the job - he is also a shrewd tactician. Would have him at SJP like a shot and think its one of the club's biggest mistakes in not encouraging SBR to recruit him ages ago. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he had joined us years ago instead of Porto or Chelsea, he would probably be managing in the Middle East today or returned to being a teacher. Not only have we killed many a young player's career, we have been "Waterloo" for many managers too Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdckelly Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 his ability as a tactician is one of the best in the world at present and while its premature to label him one of the best managers ever hes well on his way to joining that group. And while i find most of his media antics funny he does go overboard sometimes and its easy to see why this could annoy people. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SBR offered him the Assman job, but at that time Mourinho wanted to become a full-fledged Manager and declined. IIRC that is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 The talk in Barcelona (Mourinho was our B team coach at the time), was that SBR had promised him that he would retire and give him the managerial post after one or two seasons (I don't remember exactly).

Cronky Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 As for his ability as a manager, there's nothing to argue about. He's already proved that. I can't bear all the public histrionics though. Perhaps it helps him or his team, but he can be very disrespectful to other people. Last night, that theatrical running on to the pitch at the end to rub Barca's noses in it - rude and unnecessary. It was dressed up as a salute to the Inter fans, but it was all a massive ego trip and an attempt to humiliate the opposition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crumpy Gunt Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 His stock must be through the roof at Real Madird now. I think he will be there next year I would imagine only Ronaldo will be on more money than him which would be remarkable. Real will look forward immensely to playing 90 minutes without a single shot on target. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaizero Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 Getting defensive tactics right is much harder than getting offensive tactics right. I don't see why playing defensively in such an important game should be critiqued, it's the two-leg match equalent of being 3-1 up with 10 minutes to go in a one-leg match. Meaning you don't play attractive attacking fotball, you protect your lead so you get to the next round. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They brought him back in knowing his style of play. It shows that when they get desperate they will resort to employing a manager who can win (regardless of style).

Elliottman Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 How anyone can dislike him is beyond me.

Canuck Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 Marca say he has earned the Real Madrid job. We'll see how the Madridistas enjoy 14% possession and 1 shot off target.
