I agree with you, but we're humans and we like fantasies. So I did indulge in the fantasy that Mourinho was the super coach who would turn everything around, and after failing to win the CL for 2 years the facts were too strongly on the opposite side.

What I think really fascinates people about him (and it's the reason I find him so entertaining) is because he's an actor. He says things that are strategic whether or not they are real. He protects his players whatever comes, because he knows that's his critical resource. And it's funny to watch these media pundits squirm and break into outrage because they obviously don't understand the game he's playing, and he does this very well. Which also makes him quite unique, and therefore interesting.

In a sense, he's a politician.

I just don't understand why anyone would do that. At times I can enjoy a wonderful backheel by Ronaldo, but I could never support Manchester United. And that's because they are so different from Juventus. They're so conflicting that you simply cannot support both unless you're an utter moron. It's like defending two sides of an argument at the same time and being happy at the end because you've won the discussion.

Isnt choosing Inter 'Un Mourinho like' though?I always thought he'd pick a team that was not domianting a league,and then transform them into a very big threat.Juventus would have fit the defination perfectly.But oh well,from an unbiased point of view,Mourinho at Inter is definatley a scary thought.With Ranier's track record of press statements....not good..:scared:

Exactly, i heard people criticising Capello for doing that but the same was not said about Mourinho.

Also it is kind of scary, but him being there with his success means nothing. Lippi with all his might couldn't do the job and cuper was very successful when he went there but still he underperformed.

It will take a grand effort from any team to beat them, but its certainly achievable as he does not have Serie A experience.

Well to a certain extent yes, but there aren't many whining coaches in serie A like Wenger. He will have a couple of clashes with Galliani i think.

Oriali: Mancio’s in pieces Thursday 5 June, 2008

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Inter director Gabriele Oriali has revealed that former Coach Roberto Mancini is struggling to come to terms with his sacking. “He’s a broken man.”

Having delivered the Scudetto last term, Mancini expected to remain at the helm for next season, but an outburst after the Nerazzurri’s Champions League exit against Liverpool cost him dearly.

President Massimo Moratti swung the axe and turned to Portuguese boss Jose Mourinho, leaving Mancio unemployed and reportedly in low spirits.

“Roberto was convinced that he was going to stay – he is destroyed,” Oriali told La Gazzetta dello Sport.

Mancini was recently spotted jogging with Oriali and the two men remain firm friends in spite of the tactician’s demise.

“We went out for a run together so he could let off some steam,” the Beneamata director continued. “He is a great Coach and it’s hard to accept a dismissal like this.

“He made a pig’s ear of things on the evening of the Liverpool game and I told him that – friends must tell each other clearly when they make mistakes.

“But we have different personalities. He is more impulsive, while I’m calmer. But I haven’t been so close to any other Coach.”

Oriali concluded by discussing his future at the club, which may be compromised by his close relationship with Mancini.

“I will have to speak to Moratti,” he said. “We will decide together what is in Inter’s best interests. At the moment I’m not proposing anything or ruling anything out.”
