Agree. In his tenure he won the League Cup and Europa League, got 2nd place at 81 points, and FA Cup runners-up. Imagine if he stayed another three seasons.
Both of them are special in their own way but Jose is the underdog who beat all the odds. It be nice to see him succeed at international level. Pep had/has more resources but his dynasties and systems of play are so good. He made the primer league feel like a farmers league at times 🤣 Jose as well during his early Chelsea reign
@@davidsegovia9644Jose Mourinho is in a different league than Pep....they cant even be compared. Pep has inherited great teams whereever he went ....and If not that he has millions at his disposal. Man city is NOT a football club
José was toxic against so many rival teams coach’s yet he has the ultimate respect and friendship between SAF and José. Many stories that after the game win draw or lose José would bring his favourite Portuguese wine to share a glass in SAF’s office. He returned the compliment. That is the way football should be.
After Porto knocked United out in the champions league both fergie and Gary Neville went into the Porto dressing room and wished them all the best going forward what they did surprised Jose do much because nobody had ever done that before to him from there fergie and Jose became great friends even with the rivalry
@@nananou1687 oh no sir. that is the difference at the top top level - some competitors just turn to each other supporting their own players. you only have to see Jose and Wenger and Sir Alex and Wenger and Kevin Keegan! They would not have a pint or a glass of wine like Jose and SAF and that is why it is such a unique and interesting dynamic between them.
You reminded me about a story in Fergie's book about how Jock Stein told Fergie to give Alfredo Di Steffano a bottle of the best Scottish whisky before their big European tie between Aberdeen and Real Madrid, so that Di Steffano would think Fergie "was in awe of him" and relax a little. It worked, maybe José got that from there too 😅
Long before José Mourinho managed a small team in his native country and won big in Europe there was another manager, who did exactly the same. And his name is Sir Alex Ferguson (at Aberdeen).
@@vivekjayaraj1484 wow, this is so amusing I've just pissed myself. Mind you, At least Chelski have known better days when the Classless One was in charge. Arsenal 5-0 Chelski Villa 2-0 Chelski (HT)
Because of the manu team he inherited at the time, and the difficulties the team had over the years prior made it a miracle almost amd a massive achievement. So it was an achievement when you look at it that way @@luckymark571
This man knows what Mourinho was to become, when Mourinho's team beat United he ran down the touch line and slid on his knees to celebrate the winning goal. I could see he was going to succeed, Ferguson see it and they are good friends still and enjoy a bottle of wine 🍷🍷⚽️✌️
Anyone who say pep is better is delusional. Pep always had raw talents with him. He worked with clubs which were already winning. Jose Mourinho was different.
May I just, as a lifelong LFC fan, express my respect and admiration for Sir Alex. May his like never, ever appear again at Old Trafford! God bless you sir.
@@standafan4141 you need to learn to read... I said I hated his chelsea meaning him also, but in that era he was an incredible manager, if you can't see talent because of rivalry you aren't a football fan really are you... your just a salty arsenal fan who's upset because we've not won anything for years just like all of us, but I can respect talent doesn't matter about the rivalry, I don't care what you think really tbh🤣
I never forget moment how he in interm won barca by 11defenders full match UCL I was barca fan and it was like a sudden death/golden goal moment 😢😮 Jose is revolutionary wherever he goes trophies rain 🎉👏
SAF says Jose managed a small club in Porto that beat his mighty reds united in the CL semi finals at old Trafford,small club Porto did wonders under Jose. Against all odds. Jose is the goat imo along side SAF.
You Sir, you are a great example... Someone remembers how many years you lead Manchester United as a manager? Because I do, 26 years leading the best team in Europe... You tell me now who did this?! Exactly...
To me this is the GOAT of all coaches. He never took a sabbatical for 26 years straight and made Man Utd a top team feared by many others. Won 50% of the league titles while he's there. He's one in a million
I love SAF, I have been lucky to see him be more than a coach, a sports director, scout, and even father figure to his player. I miss watching him speak.
He did play, just not at a high level. Spent years in the Portuguese league system and by all accounts was a prolific goalscorer during his time with the reserve team at Rio Ave (at the time managed by his father).
He could have made his league debut then but the club president overruled it due to fears of nepotism. He'd go on to make around a hundred professional appearances over a 7 year spell, scoring a professional hattrick for Belenenses and becoming club captain of Comércio e Indústria. He decided that he didn't have the requisite pace and power to compete at higher levels and elected to become a coach instead. He wasn't just an academic - he was very much born into football and his experiences playing entirely out of the spotlight undoubtedly had an impact on him as a manager.
I think what Sir Alex meant was he never played the game at the highest level i.e in an elite club...pep played for an elite barca team,ancelotti played for THAT milan team, zidane ofcz is ZIDANE and so on....he played in portugal but really didnt play for the elite teams
Jose was a player for short time even not in highest level league.. The one and only who never play but become great manager was Arrigo Sacchi.. The manager of the great milan sides of late ‘80..
People forget just how unstoppable 00s Mourinho was. Sucess with massive clubs, but massive clubs who needed that final push. Might be a long time yet till we see a European cup won from a club outwith the big 5 leagues. As hard in 04 as it is currently. Inter for decades just couldn't get to that top spot. He sealed it then added the big one. Immediately took Chelsea from nearly men to top dogs, competing with Fergie & Wenger, totally blew them away. A perfect fit for Atletico Madrid, Borussia Dortmund or Marseille. Still brilliant, serial winner but 02-12 guaranteed winner. Not many could do it in so many different leagues under different circumstances. See many managers need to fit to a certain club, he made the clubs fit him. Legend
@jHJHJjHidie wasn't in the 00s though. Plus I don't give a shit about Manchester United so don't really understand what you are getting at. Won uefa Cup then champions league with Porto. Just as unimaginable then as now. Turned Chelsea into a rich club who won a cup now and again to a force, then european Cup with inter for first time in 50 years, against really strong United and unstoppable Barcelona. In the 00s he was unreal.
@ as if I give a shit for this 2 outdated joke … one is getting sack , one is at managing Turkish club … both destoryed by jurgen and pep… blah blah blah history united
Wtf are you talking about. Don't know how many times I need to explain 00s but here we go. The year 2000-2010. He wasn't united manager then. Don't know why I'm wasting my time replying here, if I'm talking to someone who thinks fegie got the bullet. Your obviously some part time glory hunter who thinks football began when the Premier league deal was signed. I don't have an English team, I get the feeling you think I do. Everyone has an opinion but not much knowledge
And he owes the majority (of the coaching skill and man management) to Bobby Robson - he has said this himself. RIP one of the greatest English managers of all time.
I apologise Jose I was not familiar with your entire coaching history. I did not realise he had not played professionally. Makes his accomplishments even more impressive.
Jose never played in the high level but he did played in lower league as defender. Thats probably why he is a defensive genius. Jose's Chelsea and Inter Milan teams were unrival defensively. Well, maybe by AC Milan with Maldini,Nesta,Cafu, Gattuso.
Prime example of a proper great Manager. Jose and Klopp are right there. Oil fans will come crying out Pep. But we all know who's raw real and ready made set up
Actually Jose Mourinho played a little bit as a midfielder, then went to become a scouter and an assistant for his father, who was a football manager. So there was some foundation. But, yes, he had determination to be more than an average coach in his country.
I truly believe if you’ve never played the game, that doesn’t mean you can’t be a great manager. Sure it helps, but having played the game doesn’t guarantee success as a manager. Manager and player are two totally different things in football.
When sir Alex speaks we listen..
