Both of them are special in their own way but Jose is the underdog who beat all the odds. It be nice to see him succeed at international level.

José was toxic against so many rival teams coach’s yet he has the ultimate respect and friendship between SAF and José. Many stories that after the game win draw or lose José would bring his favourite Portuguese wine to share a glass in SAF’s office. He returned the compliment. That is the way football should be.

[@walshy3430]

After Porto knocked United out in the champions league both fergie and Gary Neville went into the Porto dressing room and wished them all the best going forward what they did surprised Jose do much because nobody had ever done that before to him from there fergie and Jose became great friends even with the rivalry

[@nananou1687]

There was no toxicity, just rivalry

[@bluecarefreeforever]

@@nananou1687 oh no sir. that is the difference at the top top level - some competitors just turn to each other supporting their own players. you only have to see Jose and Wenger and Sir Alex and Wenger and Kevin Keegan!

[@oliverhughes610]

He did play, just not at a high level. Spent years in the Portuguese league system and by all accounts was a prolific goalscorer during his time with the reserve team at Rio Ave (at the time managed by his father).

[@oliverhughes610]

He could have made his league debut then but the club president overruled it due to fears of nepotism. He'd go on to make around a hundred professional appearances over a 7 year spell, scoring a professional hattrick for Belenenses and becoming club captain of Comércio e Indústria. He decided that he didn't have the requisite pace and power to compete at higher levels and elected to become a coach instead. He wasn't just an academic - he was very much born into football and his experiences playing entirely out of the spotlight undoubtedly had an impact on him as a manager.

Actually Jose Mourinho played a little bit as a midfielder, then went to become a scouter and an assistant for his father, who was a football manager. So there was some foundation. But, yes, he had determination to be more than an average coach in his country.

as a Chelsea fan, I'm glad he get MU a europa League trophy.. that's his job 👏

[@johncook25]

People forget just how unstoppable 00s Mourinho was. Sucess with massive clubs, but massive clubs who needed that final push. Might be a long time yet till we see a European cup won from a club outwith the big 5 leagues. As hard in 04 as it is currently. Inter for decades just couldn't get to that top spot. He sealed it then added the big one. Immediately took Chelsea from nearly men to top dogs, competing with Fergie & Wenger, totally blew them away. A perfect fit for Atletico Madrid, Borussia Dortmund or Marseille. Still brilliant, serial winner but 02-12 guaranteed winner. Not many could do it in so many different leagues under different circumstances. See many managers need to fit to a certain club, he made the clubs fit him. Legend
