Pandamninator Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 http://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2014/jan/20/jose-mourinho-emotion-manchester-united-chelsea Van Gaal spoke beautifully, too, at Sunday night's event recounting his first meeting with Mourinho in one of Barcelona's finer restaurants, having taken Sir Bobby Robson's job at Camp Nou, and being struck by the audacity of this smallish Portuguese guy - shouting, creating a scene, remonstrating with the club's president, Josep Lluís Núñez, for his treatment of Robson despite the presence of the new manager. That was the moment Van Gaal, struck by this outpouring of passion and loyalty, realised he had just found the ideal assistant, by complete accident. Don't why, but the thought of that scene amused me for some reason. Also shows what an influential figure Bobby Robson must've been for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Winning 1-0 away at Man City with about 10 mins to go and brings on an attacking midfielder. For a striker So it was hardly the positive move your painting it as. Respect to him for tonight though, i don't like the bloke and he talks a lot of bollocks but tonight he was spot on in every facet of the game.

Mole_Toonfan Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 It's being painted as David and Goliath because of what Mou said right? "In my time we were accused of buying the title, no? Because our owner was Mr Abramovich, just arrived in the country. Maybe now people see City in a different way," the 51-year-old told reporters. "I'm not sure if it's because it's taken them six years to get to this stage while we won straight away and I don't care. I don't envy the fact that they have this kind of protection, or whichever word. It's the way it is. Teams with success, people tend not to like them, no? "Financially, no, we can't compete. Back then it was a free world. There was no Financial Fair Play. If your club was a rich one, your owner a rich one, there were no rules. It was an open situation but times change. "Many things people considered wrong 50 years ago are something very normal now." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 He's both a) one of the finest managers and b) one of the finest hypocrites in the game. To me though it's pretty clear what he does is to take attention away from his players. Seems to work well too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bimpy474 Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 He's like Pardew, a bullshitter but that's where the simlarities end. He's a fucking talented manager with it. He talks so much shit but backs it up brilliantly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
