Rafa has won trophies in the last two seasons. Mourinho has won fuck all. Mourinho couldn't get the richest club in the world to a Champions League final in three seasons - Ancelotti does it this season.
Mourinho is running out of clubs that have the spending power and gullibility he needs to succeed. Barca wouldn't touch him with a bargepole, nor would Bayern. United were a possibility and may still be but having seen him up close this season (especially that awful stalemate at Old Trafford) it's hard to see how he would last there for any length of time.
Chelsea is his spiritual home - he had the chance to go back and establish a dynasty but he's just not that way inclined. He had tens of millions to spend and a squad that was being managed through transition skillfully by Rafa last season. He could have built on the easing out of Terry and Lampard and the introduction of new players. He could have taken on a team that had just won another European trophy and made a real challenge for the league and the European Cup. Instead he's walked into Roman's living room and shat on the rug.
Rafa came into Chelsea and had the League Cup and Club World Cup on a plate for him! And guess what he failed in both! The Europa league win was more down to the players as they were frustrated losing those 2 trophies and knew that was their last chance of silverware!
This season Rafa joined the 2nd best team in Italy! Spent over €100 million and Napoli are now the 3rd best team in Italy! Enough said.
Last season Chelsea were out the title race in January under Rafa! This season under Mou they challenged up to the final few weeks of the season! Something they haven't done in years!
Last season they went out in the CL group stage! This season they made it to the CL Semi final! Btw CL Semi Final>>>>Winning the Europa League!
Mou inherited a team that Rafa left with no balance or identity! Mou spent the first 6 months of the season fixing the mess that Rafa left the team in! Now Mou has evolved his team and has a great base to build off of for next season!
Its embarrassing that you would even compare Rafa to Mourinho!
