mourinho isn't the cause o
he was calm throughout - it was guardiola on the touchline, pacing up and down influencing the ref with every tackle.

the brawl today wasn't caused by mourinho.
real madrid just got tired cos they knew it was over.

AjanleKoko:

The ear pulling on Tito Vilanova?

Okay, I guess this is sarcasm.

Coogar/Ajanlekoko or Anyone

Can you give me the total red cards in El classicos 10yrs before Mourinho and Red cards in the last 1 yr of Mourinho

And show to me that is just coincidence

Pep has played vs Pellegrini, Cappelo etc

There were el Classicos of Zidane Ronaldo Figo vs Etoo, Dinho, Deco there were no fights

Even fans gave Ronaldinho a standing ovation, Fast forward in the last one year its always been war

coogar:

blaming moruinho for today's brawl is just desperate from barcelona fans. . .

coogar:

jose was just kidding there.
the brawl had started like 10 mins before he did that.

coogar:

it depends on the relationship between the 2 managers.
mourinho and pep don't see eye to eye. there was a time fergie and wenger were fierce enemies too.
you have 2 natural winners managing the top 2 teams in a league. . . .in a country where there's a divide between catalonians and madridstas

what do you expect? mourinho is controversial but he is a winner.
that is how he wins. . . .siege mentality!

dayokanu:

What of the relationship between Mourinho and Rijkaard?

Relationship between Mourinho and Ranieiri, Mourinho vs Wenger

dayokanu:

How many managers have a bad relationship with Pep

Fergie plays a zillion managers and they all have mutual respect for one another from hitzfeld, Van gaal, Ancelotti, , Lippi, Capello

dayokanu:

In this same currrent day Fergie played and competed with Ancelotti, never resorted to wars, Fergie competed with Pep never resorted to wars, Fergie played van gaal last season they never exchanged words,

Mourinho coached Chelsea he declared war on all

Mourinho coached Inter declared war on all

lol at dayo posting pics.
was that the incident that started the brawl?
[b]marcelo axed cesc. . . , barca players ganged around marcelo and it was pushing n shoving.

marcelo saw red. . . . .in the melee, someone slapped ozil[/b]mourinho spotted the slapper and he pulled his ear.
the slapper retaliated and shoved mourinho.

but let's blame mourinho for it. . . .he rugby-tackled cesc on the pitch.

usbcable:

they will never see that part of the game.

the referee is there to issue the cards, but barca players and official will just of they skins and go for the jugular of the opposing team player.

fine Marcee axed fabregas stupidly, but obviously the ref is the one officiating and not a villa or valdes or pique.

their players are the always edgy firebrands and just like their supporters are always trigger ready to push and shove even when the incidence does not involve them.

@coogar,
There is no defence whatsoever to JM's behaviour.Trying to justify his acts of unsportmanlike conduct is akin to fetching water with a basket.
Dayokanu and Ajanlekoko have answered you on all the points raised.
The classico used to be a spectacle before JM's arrival.Now it's nothing more than a glorified Ojuelegba bus stop brawl.
It amazes me how people say he is in line to be United's next manager.With his style of play and his generally toutish demeanour,I'm not so sure he is ideal for United.Winner or not,you have to exude class as a manager,which is something he obviously is lacking in vacuums.
When a manager gets involved in a melee,he isn't better than NPL managers.
As per the Real/Barca rivalry,you may have a point as to why it may by feisty,but I do think Mourinho is obviously a polarizing agent.He inflames an already volatile situation.You'd never see Fergie in or around a brawl pulling people's ears.Even when Fergie was being stuffed constatly by JM while in England,he wasn't saying anything bad about JM.Why can't Mour do same to Guardiola when it's obvious that Guardiola has his number?
Money can buy you all you want,but class.JM is a perfect example of that.

dayokanu:

Coogar, Ronaldinho got a standing ovation in an el classico game. The amount of talent on that field that day cannot be matched anywhere in modern football. . . Zidane, Figo, Ronaldo, Dinho, Etoo, Messi . On that field in 2005  there lies 9 WPOTY medals on that field minus
Messis.

The transfer fee on that pitch can match anywhere in todays game despite the massive inflation of today.  Yet the bernabeu stood up for an opponent. In 2009 there was also a classico with values of players similar to what we have on the field today yet there was no war

The enmity goes beyond the players that even Alonso claimed relationship with fellow NT players was damaged, Marcelo, Pepe and Ramos became thugs extraordinaire even Ozil that is one of the meekest players alive now got involved. both coaches barely talk both set of fans are getting daring by the day, at Chelsea in a similar scenario top ref Anders Frisk received several death threats  and had to quit, at Inter evey coach was at wat, now the festival of football which used to be the focus of everyone the world over now became a bloodbath just because of one man JOSE MOURINHO
