Most important thing Mourinho changed in Real was their weak mentality, something no money would buy them. I don't know how Real will do without Mourinho but he turned them from a bunch of losers to a team who was superior to the absolute dominants of the decade both mentally and even in terms of playing quality.

Meh, after 3 years and the millions spend they still rely on counter attacking football and individual brilliance from CR. They lack an identity and are over-reliant on Ronaldo and Alonso.

Ramos started fouling harsh in the last 15min. But the red-card Jose is talking about was early in the first half.
Didn´t see the vid but I´d imagined he talked about Hummels´ handball? What red card incident was he talking 'bout then?

Try to add up milions spent by Real Madrid since 1999 until now, ratio of CL success and invested money is disastrous.Two years of great investment went down the drain because of Juve:juventus:

€970m and 11 years since they last won the CL or even got to the final. Damn, that's impressive choking.

Getting through the semifinals in the CL is such a crapshoot that needs some luck in your favor. Like Dortmund could plan than ending against Malaga.

Which makes it extra-asinine when folks claim that a coach can merely will whatever team with a CL trophy or not. Let's not forget that the coach holding the current CL trophy is unemployed.

Looks like it, quite a difference to the way he said goodbye to Materazzi in 2010.

I'm not sure that Ronaldo quote was supposed to be taken the way it might have, and I think he was just commenting on Mourinho's future instead of Mourinho himself.
