Mr_Dogg Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Mourinho's latest comments....wow. He has taken the war of words between the two managers to a new level. Others will argue he is right though. Just one of life's dickheads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MessiWillSignForVilla Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Watching the video of the comments I get the feeling that this wasn't mind games as such, more that Mourinho was genuinely a bit pissed off about what Wenger has said. Which makes it funnier in my mind as the unflappable mastermind that is Jose Mourinho got wound up when his mind games failed and Wenger called him out on it I don't get why people like Mourinho, or the media circle jerk over him, he's just an arrogant tosser and always comes across as an arsehole when he tries to play his mind games. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tend to think it's because he's truly great at what he does. He's an amazing manager, maybe the best. He doesn't win because of the mind games, he wins because his tactics are brilliant and critically at most of his teams all the players love him and say he makes them feel better than they are. So he's amazing tactically and getting the most out of his players, and he even shows genuine concern for third keepers in training. That's why he wins, and is so good. But he's also really arrogant, and so he tries to have fun/ is addicted to these mind games. Because he wins, the media doesn't call him out on how stupid and arrogant they are, and even think that they're the reason he wins. To be honest, I think he's doing himself a disservice. If he didn't distract with this pointless, arrogant crap, people would focus even more on the fact that his sides attacks are devastatingly quick, his defenses are well organized, his sides actually play a really entertaining style in most games, and he rarely gets stuff wrong tactically. That gets focused on a lot obviously, but sometimes it's overshadowed by the mind games, which he could win without. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turnbull Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Seeing as Mourinho will this week become to first owner of a new Jaguar F-Type Coupe (which is a thing of beauty as you can see), I'd like to say that he's gone up a little in my estimation.

Nigel Posted February 18, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted February 18, 2014 Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho says Manchester City will be facing the worst Barcelona side in 'many, many years' in the last-16 of the Champions League.

TrinityRoadSteps Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 I am sick of going on the BBC football page and seeing Mourinho and his latest outburst as the lead story. Today he is banging on about the Barcelona v Citeh game and that this is the worst Barca side for many years. So what. It's nothing to do with you. Your team isn't involved. Why do the journos pander to his ego by regurgitating any crap he comes out with. He is just getting boring now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shillzz Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 I disagree. Mourinho gets asked a question, he answers it. Press make a mountain out of a molehill and run with it as their top story. That's not his fault. FWIW I find him very good entertainment value, would people seriously rather we had a league packed with individuals fresh from the PR school of avoiding controversy? (I'm looking at you, Pellegrini). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 no they wouldnt but being controversial for sake of being controversial is not entertaining and gets dull after a while. I dont find Charlie Sheen entertaining for his "controversial" antics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pellegrini is more concerned with building an entertaining football team, let Mourinho be the clown is Manuel's belief I imagine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
