He was a winner in EPL and Serie A. Now, he is frustrated by not winning in Spain and lost his home record to Sporting whose coach that he criticized.

Mourinho does not how to behave when he is not winning and thats something even he did not know about. English loved him cause he was a winner and damn right, he was. Now, he is a child because he does not know how to get over a defeat.

And you almost carried his babies.

the answer lies somewhere between dalitis and flies' posts

throw in a disturbing childhood and being a failure of a footballer somewhere in there too and you got the pot boiling

No. Thats ridiculous.

Explain to me how is one supposed to act when he is used to dominate leagues to a position where he is the one that gets dominated? Few will resort to violence, few to petulance, few to denial, few to self pity and last few to self critique. I am sure that he is smart enough to know that. But all of us go through that stage

Am suffering the way that he is too. Its like mine and his life are intertwined. Trying hard to get over the fact that I am not winning anymore :(

Jose makes up excuses to justify his every situation and never accepts defeat. You sound more like Reineri to be honest.

well, let me break this shit down

so dalitis is saying that the hype of the media and the love that he was receiving during his success period had gotten into his head, and i don't think that you can really deny that (by no means is it solid though)

you are saying that it's because he can't handle being dominated in such a way after constantly being on the winning side. having not suffered defeat in such a manner ever before

what i'm saying is, it probably is true that even though he was/is successful, the love and attention that the english media were giving him did get to his head in such a way that now that he's being criticized left and right, suffering the worst defeat in his career at the hands of his once beloved club (not to mention the coach who was chosen over him for his dream job) is taking a toll on him mentally. now i'm not saying that this has affected him in such a manner that he has completely and utterly lost his mind, i'm saying that him not being the love child of the media anymore, having adopted this 'us versus the world' mentality which (i believe) was once a strategy to form unity, has now become reality and it's getting way out of hand... it isn't something that he is able to control anymore judging from the behaviour of his players and indeed himself.

in the end i agree with you pretty much completely, jose isn't dealing with this shit well at all. that's for sure...

edit: just to clarify, i did say his failure as a FOOTBALLER, not a coach

Delusional and petulance does not help you learn and adapt.

Ranieri was stupid to not adapt. He virtually used an outdated system and then, prematurely accepted defeat. Thats ridic.

that i agree with. him having a bad childhood is a very speculative thing to say though.

Same like not adapting to India and accepting defeat by returning to Canada?

He is a student of the Clive Woodward approach, the aggregation of marginal gains. Anyone, he believes, can be coached into a winning team. Indeed, when he arrived at Chelsea, he told his star-struck new employer that none of the stellar names on the shopping list would be required. The only big name needed at the club was his own: Jose Mourinho. The coach was all that mattered.

Yet, here are Barcelona insisting that it is the players who produce victory. Of course, we all know at the back of our mind that their transcendent midfield has been coached incessantly since its members were barely able to walk, yet the consensus is that there is something pure, natural, unsullied about them. This is the joyful manifestation of pure football. We speak of a Barca of Iniesta, Xavi and Messi, not Sep Guardiola. How many times is the idea that anyone could coach this team to success proposed?

For Mourinho, that is heresy. To be obliged to watch the team of the player relentlessly get the better of the team of the coach, no matter how much he studies and plans, cuts to the heart of his belief. On Wednesday night he saw his very purpose being dismantled. And clearly it hurt. Almost as much as having someone’s finger shoved in your eye.

sums him up nicely

I agree that the fact he was never a footballer doesn't help him control himself.
