At Real Madrid with such a strike force, he knew he could win because the team is a machine.
Now he has Costa and probably PL winner before November can he say the same ? I dont think so.
PL has the best atmosphere, and a lot of money, but only one team can reach semi-final of CL and its not a secret in Europe.
If Ludogrets and Basel can cause trouble to a big four PL team, i suppose that Sunderland can do the same naturally.

honestly it looks like he's going to win the PL but u never know, anything can happen. This is what he's saying, all the matches are difficult, every team makes u fight for your 3 points. unlike in la liga where he said he knew they were gonna win 4-0 and along those score lines, he knew even tho the opposite team scored first.

He knew his Real Madrid side were one of the best in Europe by a mile. The only competition he had around him in that time were Dortmund, Bayern, Barcelona, and Manchester United. He didn't just achieve those results in La Liga, but in the Champions League as well.

Well it depends on the period we are talking about, Football is in constant progress/change, if we are talking about la liga lately, they were in a moment where Barça/Real were untouchable, i think you rate very high Ozil/Di Maria : Mourinho had them both with Benz, Ronaldo and Higuian up front, he still had won the league only once in his Spanish period.
Last year, teams like Sevilla, Bilbao, Villareal, Sociedad, Valencia and of course Atletico all were able to take points from Barça/Real, the year 2 Spanish teams were in the CL final.
Not many years ago, Liverpool, Chelsea and United were regularly reaching CL semifinals without any trouble, in this specific era, all the claims of PL fans was right, not anymore in 2014.
I dont know why PL midtable teams are underachieving in Europa league, maybe they dont care about this Cup while Spanish sides shine every year : Bilbao, Sevilla and Atleti all reached the final, Sevilla and Atleti won it twice this decade.
Even the German sides beat the English on a regular basis, so how could they be the strongest ?
I saw many games of Villareal beating 3 or 4 midtable PL teams in pre-season ( Ok its pre-season ), Bilbao do regularly well against the English sides, Atletico is undefeated past years against any PL team.

The defense weakness is not a valid argument for the simple reason that Atletico, the winners of last year couldnt win every week by 5-0, most of their games were painful 1-0 or 2-1 thanks to Costa incredible contribution and their solid defense, No foreign side has been able to trash a Spanish side the way Madrid or Barça did.
When you see Suarez or Costa having a ratio of 1 goal per game in the PL, im sorry but you can apply the same thing to PL, thing that nobody is doing...
Sevilla took 7 goals last year in Bernabeu, while they beated Benfica 1-0 in EL final last year, Schalke took 6, Bayern 4,Galatasaray 5, none of those teams are Spanish.

Mourinho said about his players after the 6-0 victory against Arsenal, they came to kill, i just have the feeling that RM comes to kill every game. ( Does it mean Arsenal are weak defensively ? I dont think so ).

I like Premier League,because you can't predict it right.Example-ManU.They were superb,and at once Fergie left the club,and Moyes came in,with that players he could even win Premier League.But he was historictly bad.And van Gaal started bad too.It's unpredictable.Even Liverpool's suprisely amazing form last season,even they didn't win trophy.La Liga is unpredictable too,because most of seasons we watched Barca and Real crushing their opponents,and now Atletico with bus won the league! Even they can now win against Real,while they don't have Diego Costa.And Valencia and Sevilla are amazing.Look at their stats.But difference beetween La Liga and Premier League is that La Liga's clubs playing better football in Champions League,so they clubs are looking very good on international level.Last year, Spanish final in Champions League,in Europa League Valencia and Sevilla in semifinals.

^I was quite disapointed with PSG matches this season and many other talented team in France like Marseille or Lyon can maybe win it. Overall, PSG hasnt bought anything this summer.

For Germany, no doubt it will be Bayern again. They got a boss of the mildfield Xabi Alonso and Lewa.
