This is my tribute to the 'Speacial One'. I compile some of his infamous quote to share with u guys. He will sorely miss and to me he's the biggest thing that Chelsea had ever had in the 12 years of me being Chelsea fan. 10 cups in 3 years and Premiership title in the first year in charge. He has live up to the expectation.
Hail Jose Mourinho!!
JOSE ON JOSE "Please don't call me arrogant, but I'm European champion and I think I'm a special one." "If I wanted to have an easy job... I would have stayed at Porto - beautiful blue chair, the Uefa Champions League trophy, God, and after God, me." "For me, pressure is bird flu. I'm feeling a lot of pressure with the problem in Scotland. It's not fun and I'm more scared of it than football." "Look at my haircut. I am ready for the war."
WORDS OF WISDOM "It's like having a blanket that is too small for the bed. You pull the blanket up to keep your chest warm and your feet stick out. I cannot buy a bigger blanket because the supermarket is closed. But the blanket is made of cashmere!" "Young players are a little bit like melons. Only when you open and taste the melon are you 100% sure that the melon is good." "The style of how we play is very important. But it is omelettes and eggs. No eggs - no omelettes! It depends on the quality of the eggs. In the supermarket you have class one, two or class three eggs and some are more expensive than others and some give you better omelettes. So when the class one eggs are in Waitrose and you cannot go there, you have a problem."
"I would love an Aston Martin but if you ask me £1m for an Aston Martin, I tell you, you are crazy because they cost £250,000." "Sometimes you see beautiful people with no brains. Sometimes you have ugly people who are intelligent, like scientists. Our pitch is a bit like that. From the top it's a disgrace but the ball rolls at normal speed." "We all want to play great music all the time, but if that is not possible, you have to hit as many right notes as you can."
"Maybe the guy drank red wine or beer with breakfast instead of milk." "A player from Man City showed half of his ass for two seconds and it was a big nightmare. But this is a real nightmare."
THE WIFE "She is the real manager of family life. You are the star outside, here you are not a star." "It all depends on my wife. If I am at home, yes, I will see it. But maybe my wife would like to go somewhere. I would like to see it - I like to see football and it is a big game. But maybe I will have no permission." "My wife is in Portugal with the dog. The dog is with my wife so the city of London is safe, the big threat is away."
PLAYERS "A brilliant reaction. I hate it when players just walk off." "As you know Gallas had an unbelievable holiday. I hope he enjoyed it very much in Guadeloupe, which I think is a fantastic place to be on holiday, so he wanted to stay there for a long time." "I did it because I want to push my son to do the same. I also did it because I want to push the young players on my team to have a proper haircut, not the Rastafarian or the others they have."
REFEREES "When I saw Rijkaard entering the referee's dressing room I couldn't believe it. When Drogba was sent off I didn't get surprised." "If you ask me if I jump with happiness when I know Mr Poll is our referee? No." "I could feel immediately the movement. To somebody that understands the game and feels the football, smells the situation, it was obvious."
RIVALS "Wenger has a real problem with us and I think he is what you call in England a voyeur. He is someone who likes to watch other people. There are some guys who, when they are at home, have this big telescope to look into the homes of other people and see what is happening. Wenger must be one of them - and it is a sickness." "Three years without a Premiership title? I don't think I would still be in a job." "Many great managers have never won the Champions League - a big example is not far from us." "Liverpool are favourites because in the year 2007 we've played 27 matches and Liverpool play three or four." "If you're not a big club, you choose one competition and you fight in that competition and forget the others. Big clubs - we cannot do this." "I am happy to be six points behind. In my opinion, Manchester United did not take advantage of our bad moments." "I want to give my congratulations to them because they won. But we were the best team."
THE WORLD IS AGAINST US "This is the only time we have had to play before United and that's because we control the fixtures. Just imagine if we didn't control them!" "How do you say 'cheating' in Catalan? Barcelona is a cultural city with many great theatres and this boy has learned very well. He's learned play acting." "During the afternoon it rained only in this stadium - our kitman saw it - they tried everything. There must be a microclimate here."
IN DEFENCE OF CHELSEA "We have eight matches and eight victories, with 16 goals, but people say we cannot play, that we are a group of clowns. This is not right." "Entertaining? Too much!" "I think I have a naive team. They are naive because they are pure and they are clean. We don't have divers, we don't have violent people."
WHAT THE REST THINK OF HIM "If Chelsea are naive and pure then I'm Little Red Riding Hood." "My wife will be glad about Mourinho coming to Bramall Lane because he's a good looking swine, isn't he?" "He is almost a Yorkshireman with a Portuguese accent." "When Mourinho says training will last one-and-a-half hours it will never last a second longer." "I find it out of order, disconnected with reality and disrespectful." "Two finals in three years - not bad for a little club.'' |
