Mourinho calls Rafa a fatty

He attracts morons to his hilarity.
Even when an interview is on the tv in the boozer it's usually the same fuckwits that find him funny.
The type of blokes who think a haircut is cheeky.
 
Precisely! And Mourinho is great entertainment, childish and funny/stupid at the same time. Football needs characters like him. I can't see why we should have a problem with him.



Should the entertainment not be Football itself?

Football doesn't need 'characters' like him, it's not the WWE! Football needs people who are winners agreed it needs people who take the game to higher level on the pitch not a lower level off the pitch.
 
He is indeed a character. A horrible one.

I find it bothersome that he's so successful.

His success makes this reaction, typical of the cunt that he is, even more unnecessary. He's one of the most successful managers around, this sort of light-hearted comment from Montse doesn't do anything whatsoever to detract from that. I remember reading an interview with Neil Ruddock about how awe-struck he was when we signed Riedle. Ruddock said that if he was Riedle and anyone ever took the piss, all he'd do would be to pull out his World Cup winners' medal and kiss it. Mourinho doesn't need to be a complete arsehole about this, he can just point to what he's won. Or, even better, don't respond at all. His propensity for this sort of comment doesn't add anything to the game; it adds to the banal standard of conversation about football in England, that's for sure, but doesn't do anything to address the fact that, these days at least, football is a great game populated with wankers, by and large.
 
I think the main reason he came back to Chelsea wasn't anything to do with football but because the press treat him like the second coming of Christ whereas in Italy and Spain they treated him like the Cunt he clearly is. He just likes his ego being massaged.
 
Without disputing what's been said about Mourinho above, I'm convinced that part of what made him respond to Montse's remarks is the fact that, despite having the better career record overall, he's never forgiven Rafa for (a) getting the LFC job ahead of him, (b) then dumping him and his team out of the CL in two semi-finals and (c) clearly being not the slightest bit impressed with the whole Mourinho circus act.

Not getting a chance to manage us under Gillette and Hicks must be hurting Mourinho a lot ;)

Agree about b and c

.... and the funny thing is..... he's still got a better record in Spain than Mourinho.

Hopefully Rafa will talk about how Mourinho failed in Spain - safe in that knowledge no matter what happens at Real Madrid.
 
He must be pretty insecure to need to respond in that way to a jokey remark from Rafas wife

What did he say about Wenger too, he has some balls on him talking about spending money. His signature move is taking on a team in a strong position and heaping money on them.

Not the Soccer Am presenter? Nooooooo. Surely no-one would do that?! I've 47 and I wouldn't even consider thinking about doing that

The point is he does both.

History is always written by the winners.

He is a character and a Cunt.

But above all, he is a winner.
 
As was Sir Alex Ferguson. Doesn't make either of them any less of fucking bellends.

Ferguson was just a bitter pr*ck, I don't believe Jose is and think there is a method behind all his remarks that's works very well for his teams on the pitch.

He's also shown he's capable of decent behaviour at times, e.g.shaking every Liverpool player's hand as the teams came off at Anfield after *that* semi-final in 2005, doing a fair bit for charity below the PR radar.

Truth is he's a mixture of the good, the bad and the ugly. Most people are. Except Ferguson. That's weapons-grade cnutishness for you.

I suppose so, but I always feel his 'good' gestures are no more than that - gestures. He does them in quotation marks. It's like a Thomas Hobbes joke. Take his 'tribute' to Gerrard last season: it went on and on and on until it turned into a tribute to himself. Then there's his 'It's not about me, it's about them' routine that sees him walk off the pitch and down the tunnel, leaving his players ignored on the pitch as all the cameras focus on him walking off it. Or his ostentatious throwing of his medal into the crowd - he'd probably do re-takes if he had some spares. He is always 'doing' magnanimity like a party piece. Whereas his nasty and gratuitous attack on innocent ambulance workers after the Cech injury showed, I think, the kind of person he is, and that's someone mainly bad and ugly.
 
Looks like Mourinho is starting to trying to play catch up.

Wouldn't disagree with any of that, macca, but would suggest that at least some of the ugly stuff is equally studied, a deliberate attempt to divert pressure from his players and on to himself when he thinks that'll serve his and Chelsea's purposes. It's not that I dispute he's a slimeball. I just don't think that's all there is to him.
 
What did he say about the ambulance workers after Cech's injury?

After the injury, Chelsea's doctor took twenty minutes before calling for an ambulance. Maureen knew that. The ambulance then took seven minutes to arrive. But afterwards he slaughtered the ambulence team for taking half an hour to get there, and then made all kinds of claims of incompetence that were completely unfounded. Then he suggested they should be sacked.

Now that is a cunty thing to do. It's one thing having a pop at other managers, at least they have the platform to have a go back.
 
If a single incident could capture the essential Mourinho, then it was surely the way he behaved towards those dedicated public servants at the Madejski Stadium last October. You may recall the details: Chelsea's​
goalkeeper Petr Cech suffered a severe head injury following a collision with a Reading player. The paramedics treated him briskly and skilfully, but Mourinho later announced that Cech was: 'Thirty minutes in the dressing room, waiting for an ambulance . . . if my goalkeeper dies in that dressing room, it is something English football has to think about.' In fact, the ambulance had arrived within seven minutes and Cech was in hospital just 19 minutes later. In seeking to make a cheap and vengeful point against a football club, a man earning a total of around £10 million per year was willing to smear scrupulously efficient public service workers who were earning​
a basic salary of £19,166. Now, some might think that despicable, others would be less indulgent. But at a time​
when history is being rewritten, when we are being encouraged to lament the passing of a red-blooded character who lightened our lives with his chirpy chatter and gave not a fig for stale convention, we do well to remember the way he defamed those ambulance workers.​

I know people can say mad things in the heat of the moment, but he said that after he'd had time to think, and then, no matter how often his claims were disproved, he refused to apologise at all.
