José Mourinho is known to be one of the best coach in the world of football. He’s won numerous trophies and awards in countries like Portugal, Netherlands, Italy, Spain, England, and others, but a lot of football lovers questions his old tactics. Is he really the best coach for United now?
Jose Mourinho desperately wanted to replace Sir Alex Ferguson when he retired in 2013 and thought he was getting the job. Three years later, he has been given control while Manchester United are in disarray.
If anyone doubted the ability of Mourinho – and his agent – to get out in front of a story then witness the pace at which news of Van Gaal’s sacking followed the FA Cup win on Saturday.
Ferguson did not want Mourinho in charge when he left and that sentiment broadly holds. However, Ferguson, former chief executive David Gill and the United board are less involved in the decision making at Old Trafford these days. It could be the start of a new dynasty not only for Mourinho but also for Mendes his assistant.
Manchester United are not only hiring a manager; they may very well be handing over the keys to the kingdom to the Special One and his agent.
Will he be that special enough? Or will his rivalry with Pep Guardiola cause him much? Have your say in the comment section below.
