The Mourinho Thread

[Henrique 9,133]

Pepe is a grown man, he can take it. Pepe is stupid for doing that, maybe Mou went a bit far, but "classless"? Really? That word gets thrown around too much. Pepe and Mou don't like each other, and he (Pepe) made a stupid mistake when they were still in the game.

No one can question Mourinho CV, but he is one of the more classless characters around, and his philantrophic stuff won't change that.

Whats the big deal? He's not Portuguese. We are all now witnessing the lambasting Costa is getting for playing for Spain by the same token Pepe has made himself a target for Portuguese people.

Pepe is a cunt anyway I don't know how or why anyone would want to defend him.

I wouldn't say classless, I'd say immature.

Mourinho usually coach teams with big football stars that can challenge for big trophies. I really can't see Mourinho managing Portugual, unless his reputation decreases to the point there is no big club willing to give him a job.

Its easier to see Jose managing England than Portugal.

Mourinho wanted to coach Portugal 4 years ago in 2 games but Florentino Perez didn't let him (it was something for 1 or 2 weeks but I think Mourinho would also want to go with the team for the major event after that 2 games, and that was the fist controversy of Mourinho in Madrid). Of course right now Mourinho wouldn't coach only Portugal.

Mourinho said already he will coach Portugal in the end of his carrer, and he didn't coach ENgland already because he doesn't like that much the idea of coaching a NT that is not his NT. But Mourinho is so attached to England that one day it can happen, we can have Mourinho as England national coach in the future.

David Beckham got much more stick than Pepe when he got sent off against Argentina...

Jose is entitled to his opinion (an opinion I share)

Much like Song getting sent off last night - and I agree with Gordon Strachan, players like that are selfish, they don't care about the team, or their fans - as they would not have done it otherwise... So they need to man-up, lose the Ego and play for the team...

This is where Beckham gets massive credit - he understood that, worked harder than I have ever seen to make amends and delivered MOTM performances time after time, culminating in his free kick against Greece... So if global brand Beckham can do it, no excuse for other players...

So sure, Jose's words look harsh - but isn't that a sign of the times, where everybody is always offended? I like his honesty...

FA would need to jump over their shadow to appoint him, their not-so-great relationship is pretty well documented. I can see Mourinho and Portugal happening one day, especially since he has said it over and over again that he wants it. Would Portugal really refuse to accept their most successful and reputable manager of all time?

But it doesn't matter really, he's Chelsea for next 50 years.

Maybe you are underestimating Mourinho's desire to manage his ... you know, own country?

Don't mix of field philanthropy with field issues.

Mourinho is a hot head in the same way Pepe and Ramos are. They are all sore losers, and rightly so. They don't take too kindly to losing and sometimes flip out.

Mourinho poking an eye out of Tito is the right example when comparing characters because that's stuff that happens in game, in a field of futbol.

[Toli 977]

Mou hates Pepe, so its obvious that he is biased towards him. At the end of his Madrid reign he benched Pepe and they had a rift with each other. Mou has a big, big ego and once he has fallen out with a player, there is barely any comeback for him. But when you are sitting in the glass house, you shouldnt throw stones at it (Tito and many more incidents).

when u call a person CLASSLESS it involves his character and personality as a whole. DD used to dive, but as a person there are hardly people who might be as humble and down to earth and genuinely a nice person as he is. they are hard competitors. they will do anything to win, they are winners. but to say that jose or DD is CLASSLESS is a CLASSLESS statement from one of the worst posters on here who does nothing more than give foolish and childish statements just to get some limelight.

You can say whatever you want about class. I'm not here to argue about that.

My main point is don't mix of field issues, like philanthropy and such with things that happened in a Fútbol field.

You have to measure in equal grounds.

i am sorry dude, but when i classify a person as a "good person", "bad person", "classless person", i will judge him as a whole not on a harsh tackle that a player had made, or a statement that a manager would have said to benefit his team. like i said, some people just want to win on the field. they can do anything to achieve that and in the heat of the moment they might do something they regret. but to call them "classless" for that is welll henrique-ish... since no one in the right frame of mind would do that.

It's all part of the game for Mourinho, what he says in the press etc, people need to lay off the personal attacks..
