Jose Mourinho
Jose Mourinho is an enigmatic and extremely intelligent individual, a man who understands how to play with the media and with people’s minds. He is good and evil in equal measures – the master motivator and the master baiter.
Jose Mourinho has his faults – but just one glance at what he says to the press (see Jose Mourinho’s quotes) tells you that he is constantly pushing people around him and the rules in order to get what he wants. He is driven by a hunger to succeed that is seldom seen in even the best of people and it’s that winning habit that he manages to empower his players with.
Jose Mourinho – a man who wins titles, consistently. How many other managers can say that?

England Wallow As Spain Dominate Ballon d’Or Shortlist
With their individual World Cup exploits taken into account, it should come as little surprise that England as a nation have absolutely no representation on this year’s Ballon d’Or shortlist, failing to provide a single player for inclusion on the 23-man list of nominees. A negligible amount of tenuous pride can be taken from the…
How Do Man Utd Plan To Show Their ‘Ambition’ To Wayne Rooney?
Given their escalating debts and presumably dwindling coffers, the perceived wisdom seems to be that Manchester United may eventually be found guilty of writing cheques that their collective posteriors can’t really afford to cash when it came to promising the world to Wayne Rooney in exchange for the next five years of his footballing career….

Wayne Rooney’s Next Club: Chelsea, Real Madrid, Manchester City, Tottenham or Barcelona?
It’s not often that a footballing ‘revelation’ actually sets me reeling, but I could definitely feel my vital organs squirming all throughout Sir Alex Ferguson‘s surreal portrayal of a betrayed father yesterday afternoon, staving off the tears to announce Wayne Rooney‘s deep-seated desire to turn his back on his adopted family – news that was…
Why I’d Choose Ancelotti over Mourinho

Fernando Llorente Is Taking His Chances, But Is He Madrid Material?
There is little doubt that Fernando Llorente has done nothing to harm his reputation as of late.
