Mourinho en pleine interview à la télévision espagnole dès 1996.
Mais certains le réduisent encore à un « simple traducteur » au Barça…
À bon entendeur :

I think a lot of people don’t understand that one of the most important aspects of coaching is managing players. It’s like 50% of what determines how successful you will be as a manager and how long you will stay in the job.
You can be the most tactically gifted coach in the world, have a brilliant understanding of football, know exactly how you want your team to play and have all the tactical solutions to different problems. But if you cannot manage the personalities in your dressing room, you will eventually struggle.
Footballers are human beings first. They have egos, emotions, ambitions, insecurities and different expectations. Some players need constant encouragement, some need to be challenged, some need to feel trusted, while others need to be held accountable. Understanding how to handle these different personalities is a massive part of management.
Look at what happens when a manager loses the dressing room. It doesn’t matter how good his tactical ideas are, players stop buying into the system, the intensity drops, performances become inconsistent, and eventually the manager loses his job.
This is also why two managers can have almost identical tactical approaches but achieve completely different results with the same group of players. One understands how to get the best out of his players, makes them feel important and gets them to buy into his ideas. The other might be tactically brilliant but struggles to build those relationships.
You also have to understand that managing a big club comes with another layer of responsibility. You have established players who expect to start, young talents who want opportunities, senior professionals who command respect and expensive signings who expect to justify their transfer fees. Keeping all these people motivated and pulling in the same direction is not easy.
Sometimes, the decision that defines a manager’s season isn’t a tactical substitution or a change of formation. It’s how he handles a player who isn’t getting enough minutes, how he responds to a senior player’s frustration or how he deals with a dressing-room disagreement before it becomes a bigger problem.
That is why man-management is not some secondary quality that managers need to have alongside their tactical knowledge. It is central to the job. Tactics might help you win football matches, but your ability to manage people can determine whether you build something sustainable or end up losing your job.
Mourinho is a psychologist, and this shows in how he handles his players differently. He knows who has a strong mentality, who is emotional, and who has an ego, and he treats them accordingly.
During his second spell at Chelsea, he hardly praised Cesc Fabregas in press conferences, but he always sent him a text message after most matches, to tell things like ‘ I know you’re good but not this good’ I can tell he gives Arda Guler that same Fabregas treatment today.
He understood that Eden Hazard wasn't a good trainer and was a bit egocentric, so he'd always promise him a day off if he had a good game and never got angry at his poor training.
Look at the way he handled Vini today, he understands that Vini is emotional, which is why he's 80% soft and 20% harsh toward him. I bet he wouldn't be that way toward Mbappé or Cucurella, players with a tougher mentality.
He gives each player different treatment based on their personality.

Waking up to Marc Cucurella’s words feels like the ultimate reward for our endless support of Arda Güler. The recognition we have longed for, for so long.
The hundreds of tweets convincing people Arda should hold on a little bit longer, that his opportunities would come, that he shouldn’t leave now. That the coaches love him. That the club loves him.
If I was able to only change a few minds about him staying at Real Madrid, or believing in Ancelotti, Arbeloa and now José Mourinho then it was all worth it to make this journey a more positive one.
Arda’s story is written by the football Gods and we’re about to enjoy every minute of it.

I've always said this. Ancelotti and Zidane were just lucky to come in at the time they came in.
That team was set up to do what they went on to do before those two coaches came

The Valencia win was a pure masterclass from José Mourinho. 3 games away from home, 3 wins. Mourinho knew how difficult that final game at Mestalla was going to be.
He managed to rest his core players Konate, Huijsen, Tchouameni and Arda Güler and still completed a remontada against AEK, a place where Real Madrid historically struggles to win.
Then the players that rested won him the game in Mestalla, there was a BRILLIANT defensive block of Konate, Huijsen and Tchouameni. And then, of course ARDA GÜLER, the 21 year old is playing at another level this season. The assist he made on Mbappé was something out of this world. Mourinho has every player believe in themselves and more importantly believe in each other.
From the start, the Valencia players were aggressive, and committing fouls. Mourinho protested every single foul from the very first minute. Together with the staff and players. This is needed in such a hostile environment. Because in the end it might turn a decision in your favor, like it did with Maffeo, who received a yellow card and we scored from the free kick that was given. This was KEY to win the game. Without the constant pressure on the referees, you don’t know if he would have called that as a foul.
What Mourinho has done in only three months with this group of players deserves nothing less than praise. Huijsen, Mbappé, Valverde, Bellingham, Arda, Camavinga. Mourinho has lifted everyone’s spirits. The way the team presses, or when to play compact, everyone knows their job, everyone takes responsibility and everyone sticks with it.
Because in the end, what José Mourinho says is true. The greatest coach of all time.

Jose Mourinho is NOT copying PSG's "plan of giving their stars a rest" he has been doing it throughout his managerial career
Jose worked under Sir Bobby Robson who's coaching philosophy included fatigue management, psychological decompression & strategic rest
🚨💣 BREAKING: José Mourinho has decided to COPY PSG's plan of giving their stars mid-season REST.
Luis Enrique often rests his stars in the early-middle part of the season, so that they arrive to the late part of the season in TOP SHAPE, and not tired or injured.
José is now implementing a workload and rest management plan: it's not just rotations during matches, it also includes days off and special measures to allow some players to disconnect, recover, and rest mentally.
Arda Guler and Aurélien Tchouaméni were the first players to benefit from this plan against AEK, and it will now be repeated on other players. @marca

A FASCINATING Jose Mourinho interview with @DesKellyBTS...

🚨 Wesley Sneijder with a beautiful anecdote about José Mourinho:
“Mourinho is in my top 3 coaches. To give you one example, and I’ve mentioned this before — he once said to me on Monday afternoon: “Wes, you look tired. Why don’t you go to the Netherlands for a bit? Just take a little break.”
To which I replied: “Yeah, but I’d like to train, because I want to play again this weekend. He said: “But yes, you’re going to play anyway. I will see you on Friday and then you’ll play on Saturday.”
“Well, at some point you’re going to start thinking: “Yeah, why is he doing this?” And then you also start to think, I have to repay him. And luckily that’s exactly what happened in that match, I scored twice.”
“But yeah those are the kind of things he does. He’s done that with several players.”

Year 3 and he is still trying to instill 😭. I don't know how to break it to you but maybe the coach is not that good or your players are slow
Bayern Munich runs more than Barca, yet you will never see their fans complain Kompany is running the players into ground. Anyone saying Flick's tactics are exhausting is myopic and have a weak mentality.
Barça aren't even in the top 5 teams for distance covered in Europe. Have you ever seen Bayern fans complain about Kompany running players into the ground? No, because they don't have a lazy culture in their club.
That's what Flick wants to instil in Barcelona. But people who know nothing about football think Flick's tactics are the problem. The players are the problem. They have a weak and loser mentality and are stupidly lazy.

The New York Times covered the Negreira case. The people behind NegreiraGate posted about it, Futbolgate posted about it, and countless Madrid fan pages did too. RMTV even released two videos.
Barcelona fans like this one missed all of it because they were too busy wiping away their tears after the El Clásico defeat. 🙃

They’re all winners, but what makes 4 of them different is how they win.
HERE IS WHY MOURINHO IS THE PUREST FOOTBALL GENIUS AND THE ONLY BUILDER AMONG THEM.
When a coach takes over a club, I look at their past 3 seasons, but I pay closer attention to the final 2. That gives me a clear picture of the club's state before they arrived.
This is why I don’t rate Pep. Every team he has coached was already dominating their league and Europe before he walked in. At Barca, they won the UCL a season before he arrived. At Bayern, they were the best team in Europe, he actually dismantled that squad and they never reached that level again until he left. He failed there. At Man City, they won 3 league titles in 5 years, finished 2nd and 4th, and reached a UCL semifinal right before he arrived. When Pep got there, he won 3 titles in his first 5 years but couldn't get past the UCL quarterfinals in that same span.
Mourinho is completely different. He consistently overperformed and elevated every club above the standard he met. That’s why he won trophies at clubs that hadn't tasted success in 17, 20, 45, and 50 years.
Let’s start with Porto. Mourinho arrived at a team that had gone 2 seasons without a league trophy. They had qualified for the UEL instead of the UCL because they finished 5th (their first time out of the top spots in a decade). Mourinho started rebuilding, and Porto won the UEL in his first full season, followed by the UCL the next year, ending a 17 year wait for the club. No manager in football history has ever done that. To put it in context, it’s like Aston Villa winning the UCL this season.
Then he moved to Chelsea. He walked into a club undergoing a massive structural transformation in a league dominated by Man Utd and Arsenal. Chelsea went trophyless the season before his arrival, though they did finish 2nd behind Arsenal's Invincibles. In his very first season, Mourinho won the EPL in style, Chelsea's first league title in 50 years, while setting records for the fewest goals conceded and 25 clean sheets in a single season (both records still stand today). He followed that up by winning the EPL back to back.
At Inter, the club had domestic dominance but persistent European underachievements. In the 2 seasons before Mourinho arrived, they were knocked out in the Round of 16 back to back by Valencia and Liverpool. In Mourinho's first season, they were eliminated by Man Utd in the Round of 16. The very next season? He won the UCL, ending a 45 year wait for the club.
At Real Madrid, Mourinho arrived when the club couldn’t get past the Round of 16 for 7 straight years, even after signing Cristiano Ronaldo, Kaka, and Benzema. Mourinho stepped in and immediately led them to 3 consecutive UCL semifinals. He shattered Pep’s Barca dominance by winning La Liga with a record 100 points and a record 121 goals, alongside a Copa del Rey, their first in 20 years.
When he came back to Chelsea, he set records by staying top of the table from day one to the last day to win another EPL. At Man Utd, who had qualified for the UEL before he arrived, he won the UEL (something Ferguson failed to do in 4 attempts), added 2 more trophies, and became their most successful manager of the post-Ferguson era. At Spurs, he kept them at the top of the table for 4 months, their longest run in 10 years. And at Roma, he won their first ever European trophy with a negative net spend (they qualified for the UECL before he arrived), then took them to the UEL final the next season.
Xavi’s La Liga-winning Barca and Arteta’s Arsenal, both with much bigger spending budgets, played in that same UEL edition and couldn’t even reach the final but Mourinho did with Roma.
JOSE MOURINHO IS THE GREATEST COACH TO EVER GRACE A FOOTBALL PITCH.

So outdated tactics can win a big game like el Clasico at camp nou against arguably the most inform Barca team ever?

Massive improvement on the last two seasons just actually having options, last two seasons every fucker knew who was going to play cause half the team was injured most the time 💀
Whatever was causing so many injuries has clearly been fixed under Mourinho.
🚨 Jose Mourinho is still undecided about his El Clasico line-up, his main doubts are:
• Rüdiger or Huijsen at CB
• The double pivot
