Cule butthurt detected. If he is not, than who is? Pep lol? I don't know what criteria anyone uses here, but he's certainly most consistently successful coach of the last 10 years, smug mug or not. For the record, i dislike him as much as the next person here, but facts are facts.
So yeah, Enrique can be smug as he like if he does the job well.
Like I said in many of my posts already (and have been saying for years) the role of managers is grossly overstated in today's football.
But, for the sake of argument, let's play this stupid game.
I know very well already what you are going to say in support of Mou. You will say:
a) Has won the CL with Porto.
b) Has won the CL with Inter.
c) Won the EPL in his first try.
d) Defended the EPL in his first try.
e) Has won 8 leagues over not so many years/in not so many years. Including the 3 bigger leagues.
f) Won one league against the mighty Barca of 11/12.
What you will fail to say:
a) His Chelsea was far and away the richest team in England at the time.
b) He failed in his primary purpose when hired by Abrahmovich. Namely, winning the Champions League.
c) He failed in his primary purpose when hired by Real Madrid. Namely, winning the Champions League.
d) He is now failing again in his primary purpose for which he was rehired by Abrahmovich. Namely, winning the Champions League.
e) He has been failing in the tournament that created his reputation in the first place, namely, the Champions League, for many years now, despite the fact that he had some of the most expensively assembled sides ever. All his recent failures, came against poorer clubs. His humiliation by Atletico was the apogee of Mou-failure.
f) Managed to outdo the utter ineptitude of last year's elimination at the hands of Atletico at home, by an even more astonishing display of ineptitude (and negative football) by getting eliminated by 10-man PSG in the round of 16. Despite the fact that he sacrificed the FA Cup, so that his Chelsea had no games to play right before both legs.
g) Systematically produces the most dour football on the planet.
h) Chelsea have done better without him, rather than with him in the CL. Much better, despite having an ageing team without him.
k) Real Madrid immediately triumphed in the Champions League, as soon as Mou got out of the way.
l) Winning leagues is easy, especially with Chelsea/Real/Porto/Inter.
m) "When Mou came to Spain, Real Madrid were 2 points behind us. When he left, they were 15." - Gerard Pique Bernabeu.
