great video, gave me chills... Mourinho becoming the special one once again

Wow, it seems like such a long time ago when Mourinho was implementing negative football to win the CL. Now Inter don't even have a good enough squad to qualify, let alone win it. Juve were in a similar situation for a couple of years and they managed to bring themselves back to the top. I am not so sure Inter can do the same.

Jose Mourinho is the best coach in the world.

• One of four managers to win European Cup with two different clubs (Porto, Inter Milan).
• Only manager to win league titles in Portugal, England, Italy and Spain.

For me he will always be the special one.

@Alex, +1 .. All those titles in just 10 years! Jose is simply the best coach in the World, no question.
@TheGame What do you mean negative football? You mean actually having a strategy, a plan b? Arsenal have been playing beautiful football for the last 8 years.. how many titles they have?
Over the last 3 years Inter has had 5 managers. That's a lot of instability, that's a lot of confusion. From our 2010 Quintuple, winning team, only 5 still remain. Only 2 still play regularly. Former President Massimo Moratti was facing great financial difficulty and thus couldn't build on the already amazing squad we had. The last 3 years, our star players began to slip away. Their salaries were too high for the club. They were replaced with mediocre players who could not challenge for any trophies and to top it off they were being managed by incompetent coaches. Last season Inter finished 9th. Worst position Inter finished since 41/42 season. Moratti realised it was time to find a new manager and a new investor/President because finishing 9th is not acceptable for Inter. Moratti will always be loved for what he has done for the Nerazzurri. Inter has never been relegated, it is in our blood to win. Failure is not an option.
This transition has been long and a difficult one. But for sure, 100% Juve would not have comeback from Serie B to be top of Serie A if Inter was in a stable situation. They only got the chance because of the clubs financial issues.
Now Inter is in 6th. Mazzarri is doing a good job with the team he has. New club president Thohir needs to learn from mistakes of last season. He needs to strengthen the squad in this Jan transfer to get CL football next season.
Some people forget Inter were top of Serie A at the start of last season, we ended Juve's 49 unbeaten streak. Injuries to senior players and no impact signings in jan gave Milan who were in the same situation they are in now the chance to get 3rd spot.
So yes, Inter will be back. Inter is eternal!

The goal is to play winning AND attractive football at the same time. Bayern Munich, Barcelona, Real Madrid, City, and United have all done it in recent times. Granted, I am not saying it wasn't a great achievement by Inter in 2010, because winning the treble is always an amazing thing to achieve. But the football they played was highly defensive and not very appealing, at least not in my opinion. But Inter aren't going to qualify for CL this year and it will be their third year in a row. And please don't tell me that the reason why Juve are so successful is because of Inter's instability. Juve too went through a period of instability but with the appointment of Conte, shrewd signings, and attractive football they will get their third Scudetto this year. Don't forget they had 91 points in 05/06 (15 points ahead of "first place" Inter), when they were forced to get relegated. If playing in Serie B doesn't destabilize your club in terms of increasing revenue and attracting top-class players, I don't know what will. IMO Inter have themselves to blame, because they were always an old team that relied on established talent and now that all their star players have aged, they didn't think of a long-term plan to replace them properly. Hence the mess they are in.

Are you saying Mourinho played negative football with Porto, Chelsea, Inter and Real? Or are you just talking about Inter? I'm trying to decipher what point you are trying to get across. Inter played some of the most beautiful and free flowing and attaking football I have ever seen under Mourinho. If you actually watched an full Inter game instead of just the highlights, you would know that. But I guess in this case you are referring to the 2nd leg CL match in Camp Nou when Motta was unfairly shown the red card at 27 mins because of biscuits diving abilities. 10 man Inter in the Camp Nou. Pressure. They withstood wave after wave of Barca attacks. A book on great defending could have been written. But in your eyes, we should have attacked and played tiki football so neutrals can be entertained. Wake up and smell the roses. This is reality, not some fifa game you play in your pajamas, OK. 2nd point. If Inter built on the CL winning team and Mourinho stayed, Juve would have never had the chance. The main team (Inter) was out of contention. Our mastermind coach was gone. The spark was lost, players left. Perfect storm for juve rebellion. The stars and moons aligned just right for juve. 3rd point, in any successful team you need a balance of youth and experience. Not an extreme of any 1 which Inter certainly did not have. Inter replaced the aging stars but with mediocre ones, did you not read anything of what I wrote? You are seriously just hating on Mourinho right now and you wish he was your coach instead of that eyebrowless joke of a manager called Moysey.

4th point - Juve were relegated to Serie B because of match fixing. They were supposed to go to Serie C1. They appealed and went to Serie B.
Read this and educate yourself instead of talking out your ass.

He is a good coach very funny and makes lots of jokes but sometimes he is nasty but he is very smart also. But i dont think he deserves the nickname ''The Special One'' thats just bullshittt

Got to the semi-final every year in charge, record season 11/12. If you want to blame someone, blame your idiot president Florentino Perez.

He is choosing the wrong players , He does stupid stuff sometimes and he destroyed a couple of players. San Iker on the bench all because of him and Kaka left and look now how amazing he is at Milan. If Mourinho didnt mess up we would have atleast won 1 CL -_- special one my ass..

Look at Mata at Chelsea... He doesnt want him anymore in his starting 11. He doesnt even want him on the bench -_- what a d1ckhead who does that to one of his best midfielders??

He benched Iker because he was questioning his authority and leaking information about the team to his reporter girlfriend. Kaka was not suited to Real, he had many chances but was always got injured. Before Mourinho Barca were unquestioned dominant team in Spain. Last time Real won La liga before Mou 07/08 season. If it was not for Mou, Real would have always been 2nd. Real are now 5 points behind Barca and Atleti after record signing. I guess Ancelotti is a crap coach too, right? Mata does not fit into Mourinhos new system because he does not track back and has no pace for counter-attacking. I am not going to waste anymore of my time debating you.

Ha-Ha you love Mou right? Your asskissing him too much bro :D but anyways have a nice day ;)

@Wolfie, umm do you really think your points are that compelling? Because they just come across as arrogant. You don't even want to give an ounce of credit to Juve for their success. You are blinded by your man-crush on Mourinho. When Mourinho played WINNING football for most of his career, his team was built around defense and careful organization and so were his tactics (deeper defensive lines, stronger forwards, physical center backs). Watch the away fixture against Chelsea that year as well. If you can't see that then there is nothing I can do. I could also argue that Mourinho was not at all successful when his team was built on attacking football (hence Real Madrid). But I don't feel the need to go into that. And no, I would never want Mourinho to manage United. If you think you're clever by switching the subject to Mourinho and start dissing Moyes when my initial points were mostly about Inter as a whole and why they are a shadow of what they used to be, you're really not. In fact, you just come across as a troll.

Still don't have an idea of what you are trying to say. Sounds like you are getting very confused here. You really are struggling to get any coherent points across. It is actually quite painful to see you attempt to bluff your way through this debate. Typing out random, nonsensical points. Your argument is flawed. If you wanna sit there and tell me you would rather have moysey than Mourinho as your coach..then You only lying to yourself. Very easy to use the T word when you are losing an argument. Well, desperate times calls for desperate measures. You thought I was just gonna sit back and not call you out on your bullshit? "Negative football" ever considered a career in stand up comedy? At the end of the season when united finish 10th and Chelsea has won the BPL and CL . You may just wonder.. "Oh, what could have been."

@Wolfie there is no confusion here. It seems that you are just blinded by your fan-boy tendencies towards Inter and unconditional love for Mourinho to even read and comprehend what I stated. As far as I am concerned, there is no ONE argument here, as you keep changing the topic. And now it is Moyes vs. Mourinho. Who is a proven champion and one of the best managers in the past decade? Of course it is Mourinho. But he won't be a fit at United. Our board of directors were looking for a long-term solution. Mourinho is not that person. They were also looking for someone with a record of giving youngsters a chance and developing youth players, as our history demands it. Mourinho is not that person. They were looking for someone who would do everything in the best interest of the club and not ruin it's reputation with his antics. Mourinho is not that person. Although Moyes has done a piss-poor job in terms of gathering enough points in the league so far, he was still a better fit. If you think United will finish 10th this season you're having a laugh.

@Wolfie , The funny is your too much blinded for your love to Mou. And bitch please you dont know nothing about RM. Kaka too much injured? wtf you talking about idiot. Dont be mad just because Intermilan doesnt win shit in Italy anymore so you can forget the Champions League my friend ;) and these gif pictures of yours are too childish my little brother is using them at school today hahaha dumbass.

@TheGame: Just out of curiosity, what's negative about being more defensive than offensive? And I'm not talking about "Park The Bus" defensive but just a bit more focus on keeping a tight defense over full focus on attack.
