Mourinho with 226 points shocked shocked shocked shocked

This argument is over. grin

IFFHS has ended this debate. Pep is struggling below 200 points and the toxic, archaic, negative, ancient manager is leading in the last 20 years?

I doff my hat for Mourinho. cheesy

Before Pep joined Barcelona they were trophyless. in 12months won every trophy he contested
They won CL in 2006 & they have won it after Pep left.

Have Porto/Inter won CL since Jose left? No
Have Porto/Inter reached a final since? No
Have Porto/Inter reached a semifinal since? No

Mourinho is a miracle worker. shocked

What is the fact in claiming ovbredo aided Barcelona when he actually aided Chelsea by giving Abidal a red
Ovrebo’s cheating was after Iniesta got the equalizer.

He’s admitted to it.

The two biggest franchises in football club history is underdog because Jose was employed grin grin grin grin....this argument is lost at this point
United hadn’t won the league in 3 years before Jose was appointed. The annoying part was that United’s best position was 4th which they achieved once. Fergie never finished below 3rd in his last 20 years at Old Trafford.

United weren’t in trouble?

Madrid couldn’t go past round of 16 in the CL(a competition they had won 9 times) for 6 consecutive seasons. Pep was shitting on every club in La Liga. He had won the league twice in a row before Jose was brought in to stop the rot.

Madrid weren’t in trouble?

By chance, the referee who officiated the Inter Milan vs Barcelona match at the San Siro in the Champions League yesterday was of Portuguese origin, making many Spanish fans think that his nationality and possibly his loyalty to his country flag was one of the many reasons why he favored Portuguese coach Jose Mourinho, at the anger of the Azulgranas.

Missing cards for Maicon, Lucio, Walter Samuel, and Sneijder, as well a goal for Maicon from a controversial build-up, and suspiciously offside goal by Diego Milito, in addition to the denial of a clear penalty for Dani Alves, explicitly shows how much Barcelona were robbed; but expectedly, none of Inter’s key members accepted their “unfairness” against their visitors.

https://bleacherreport.com/articles/382144-cheats-inter-giving-barcelona-perfect-reminder-of-2009-ovrebo-episode
That’s an opinion, it’s not fact. I despise when people bring opinions into a discourse that revolves in facts. Has the referee in that game admitted he made errors? No.

Inter destroyed Barca 3-1 in the first leg.

All Barca needed to do was win 2-0 at Nou Camp. Pep even got help when Motta was sent off. Barca played against 10 men for more than one hour and still couldn’t score 2 goals needed to qualify.

Have some shame.

Was there VAR during the time of Ovbredo? Didnt the same Ovbredo red card Abidal
Ovrebo saw the handballs - he just didn’t give them. Linesman failed to spot that Scholes was ONside and ruled out a legit goal.

Ovrebo has since admitted he made mistakes in that game and that we shouldn’t judge his career by one game.

He won De Gea his only golden glove award in England. De Gea couldn’t do it under SAF, Moyes, LVG and the Norwegian fraud.

Considering he did it with a defence unit of Valencia(33 years of age winger), Young(33 years of age winger), Smalling & Jones is absolutely a miracle.

Ole arrived, spent £150m on that defence and he had already conceded more league goals in January than Jose did throughout 17/18 season. shocked

Also do you remember when he wanted to cheat his way to another CL at Madrid when Nani was wrongfully sent off and the tie was turned against United in the QF only for Bayern to send him home in the semis.
Give me a break.

United were leading 1-0 when Nani was sent off. SAF(poor tactician) refused to make changes to shore up the defence. He was busy arguing with the 4th referee on the touch line.

Mourinho saw the gaping hole in our set up and immediately brought on Modric. Barely 6 minutes later, Modric scored and SAF was still arguing with his chewing gum.

What a joke!!!!!

talk about cheating

How about that Paul Scholes goal at Old trafford?
There was no VAR & even if you counted Scholes’ goal, it would have sent the game to extra time and maybe a shootout. Any team could have won a shootout.

Porto won the first leg 2-1. Scholes goal counted would have made it 2-1 at OT.

Ovrebo denied Chelsea about 4 clear penalty incidents and a Chelsea goal would have eliminated Barcelona in the tie.

Because you are belittling his achievements at United. I need to constantly remind you that Jose performed miracles at United.

Ole with better players, better squad, non-toxic environment, rich DNA, smiling players, happy atmosphere, etc - no title in almost 3 years. cheesy grin

All this Shalaye ontop taking a CL final team to Europa Conference. Mou should do it if it's easy cheesy but alas he can't even qualify for it.

And by the way since we are talking about flukes, that his CL win at Porto was a fluke, if it's not he should repeat it again. Even the one at Inter grin
Porto was a fluke? If Porto was a fluke, what about the one at Inter? grin

If anyone won CL via fluke, it would be Pep. He cheated his way into 2009 semifinal after Ovrebo cheated Chelsea at Stamford Bridge because he wanted Pep’s autograph for his kids.

Even the current CL campaign, the referee cheated Dortmund of an away goal when he ruled out a legit goal. Another referee gave City a dubious penalty when IFAB’s law carefully stated that a ball that hit the arm from any part of the body isn’t a foul.

You have just expose Mourinho as a fraud,if he only thrive as an underdog how do you expect him to perform well with big teams like man United,real Madrid?
United and Madrid were underdogs when Mourinho joined them.

He doesn’t take jobs that are easy. Pep was destroying La Liga when Florentino Perez went to prostrate for Mourinho to come and rescue his club and take them to back to glory.

Mourinho won them the league and he would have won more but Pep ran from La Liga after getting disgraced by Jose. Mourinho lost interest in the rivalry & came back to Chelsea.

A certain coach won UCL with Nottingham forest as an underdog and since then no one has been able to do it.....makes him the best ever .
Mourinho did it twice.

One can be a fluke. Doing it twice cements him as the best manager this century.

It’s not even debatable.

Mind you, Clough is well respected. There are plenty of statues of him in England. He’s ESPN’s 3rd greatest manager of all time.

What God cannot do does not exist.
CL finalist team that he met at 14th.

The CL final was a fluke. Spurs hadn’t won an away game in the PL in almost a year - until Jose joined them.

What sort of a CL Finalist fails to win a league game away from home for more than a year? grin cheesy

I challenge you to look at all the CL finalists since it’s inception in the 50s, none of the finalists had failed to win an away league game in almost a year.

Bottom line failed to win at Madrid and Chelsea, his immediate succesors won

At Spurs he inherited a Spurs who just made the CL final, How are things going over there?
It’s about progression - a concept you lacked.

Mourinho met a team that cannot get past round of 16 for 6 consecutive seasons and got them into semis 3 times. It’s inevitable that they will win it as soon as they are 1 goal or one penalty shootout away from the final.

Pep met Bayern after they had just completed a TREBLE and baba couldn’t get them past semifinal in 3 attempts.

That’s regression. Bayern had already won the CL, they were in form when Pep(the supposed best manager on the planet) joined them and yet, the team deteriorated under him.

It was no wonder Bayern parted company with the fraud.

No PL
No CL
No Europa

Their last victory was Carling Cup - 14 years ago.

Mourinho is right, Spurs should respect any cup competition they find themselves. They are not in any position to dream big.

Enrique won 5 trophies in one season & completed a treble with Barcelona.

In the clubs Jose won the CL, they cannot even reach the semis after Jose left them.

Barca won CL in 2006, Pep arrived won it 3 years later.
Bayern treble in 2013, Pep won the league a year after.
City won PL in 2014, Pep arrived & won it 4 years after.

Guardiola never joins a team struggling to win trophies.



Mourinho won the league for Chelsea 50 years after they last won it.

Mourinho won the champions league for Inter 45 years after they last won it.

Mourinho performs miracles with underdogs , Pep is a fraud with clubs that are expected to win stuff anyways.

Pep can’t even win champions league without Messi. It took him 5 attempts with a squad worth £1 billion to achieve semifinal CL - what Pellegrini did in 15/16.

That achievement alone is better than any thing Pep has done as his predecessors or successors have achieved the same or more.

Luis Enrique won the treble after Pep left
