I don't like him as a person and I don't like the way he has played with Inter and I see he is doing the same at Real as well when they meet a strong opponent, and this is a very defensive style, making only what is necessary. Of course, he had many successes in his career with this style, but if every team would play like this, then we would have much lesser people in the stadiums and sitting in front of the TV watching games. I have to admit that he is able to make a good team from every squad, but I don't like the defensive style he is making and the arrogance he has off the pitch. I know that this is also a strategic move, but a person can be judged for the tools he uses to have success.

But look against who they score lots of goals. I have watched them against Atletico, and after scoring the two goals they have only concentrated on defending. I know how they played against Bayern, because I am a huge Bayern fan and I think that if these two teams met again with the same lineup and the same coaches, Bayern would win. I know that in football is important to win at the right moment, but I think that Inter was not better than Bayern, even with their defensive tactic. The key moment of the final was when Muller missed his opportunity right after the half time break.

Well. It's not very often you see a top team go for scoring 5 or 6 goals in a match. Real Madrid scored 2 goals very fast, and after that they could go in defence, and just win it, without using much energy. Real Madrid has a match against Real murcia in 2 days, so they need their players to be ready. Real Madrid has a hard program, when they participate in Champions League, La liga and Copa del rey, and they can't go for a 4-0 or something win everytime. I definately think Inter was better than Münich. Münich was very slow in their defence, and Inter scored 2 goals on very few chances. The strengh of many Italian teams is their defence, and Inter used it very well, and won the final. And if Muller has scored, we don't know, what would happen.

Yes, he has a kind of a defence style with Inter. We saw that in the champions league final against Bayern Münich. They let Münich has the ball the most of the times, and then they stood really defensive. They made 2 good chances, and they scored. He did this with Inter. In Real Madrid he has made their defence much better, but they is not only a defensive team. They score a lot of goals, so I disagree with you, that they have a defensive style.

he's controversial but as long as he wins silverware... he's a great manager... it makes football more interesting like he's the bad guy yet he wins the stuff

like he proves everyone wrong... or he's the underdog... that's why I think many people don't like him because they envy him... maybe as a manager he's a tough one and his style is very conflicting but it works...

It really nice, that a man like Mourinho wins everything with every clubs he is manager for. He just come to the club, and many doesn't like him, and then he wins everything. It's amazing how he manage to do it.

I I agree pretty much with you. I don't think he is tough, but a man, who makes many conflicts.

The special one - you either hate him or like him. I both hate him and like him. I used to hate him every time he used to do the number on Arsenal. And I used to love him for his press conferences and his management of teams. I used to hate him when Chelsea will shut shop after scoring one goal. I used to love him when he led unfancied Porto and Inter to Champions League trophy!! He is the proverbial flawed genius!! Cheers! Ram

I think no body plays the press better than Mourinho. Maybe Sir Alex, but no one else. Cheers! Ram

I have always liked him, but after his arrival to Real Madrid I really love him, and I think it was the right move from the directors in Real Madrid to get him to the club. I think he did very very well last season in Inter by winning the triple. I think he sets his team up very good, and he know exactly which players to buy. I also love his comments to the press, and I really loved the moment, where Mourinho arrived with Real in Milano, where they should play against Milan, and he just showed the audience 3 fingers, as a symbol of the triple he won with Inter.

He is arrogant, but I don't think he talks too much. He is a conflicting man, but I think he like, when some people hate him, because he is the best manager.

He is extremely good at his job, there is no denying that, but he does not seem like a very likeable person to be honest.

I like the way he does the things. His attitude is very nice, and I love the way he is. And then he is very good to set his team up for matches.

Agree 100% with you. All the players from the clubs, where he has been manager say, that he is a great man, and they really love or loved him as manager. That's why I think he makes that excellent results, as he does.

I don't like him. He is arrogant, proud and so full of himself. But I got to admire his leadership and ability as a manager.

I would really be proud too, if I had won Champions League with porto and Inter. Everytime he is manager in a new team he do very well, and he has won many titles. I think that's the reason why he is arrogant, and thinks he is better than anyone. I think he is a great trainer, and he just make the results.
