the special one always wins at the bridge

José Mourinho visto na imprensa inglesa.




"Egotistical, cynical and brilliant. Welcome back, Jose Mourinho"
So now Chelsea know what it is like to be Mourinho’d. To face a team wound up to manic heights of intensity. To hit a brick wall of organisation.
Welcome back, José. Egotistical, cynical and brilliant. A few Chelsea fans cursed his name as they faced up to defeat and another failure in the Champions League last night, but it was the bitterness of envy. They would have him back tomorrow.


O The Guardian começou o relato do jogo assim:
"I am happy to provide you, dear reader, with a simple resumé of what we'll be watching from Stamford Bridge: 22 irrelevant players. One irrelevant ball. An irrelevant referee. A lot of irrelevant people in the stands. An irrelevant manager. 90 minutes, and possibly mor...e, of utterly irrelevant football. And Jose Mourinho."

Terminou-o assim: José Mourinho's tactical brilliance meant Inter left Chelsea in pieces, assim José Mourinho returned to make one last mark on Chelsea's history e assim.

O mesmo jornal destacou um fotógrafo para fotografar Mourinho durante o jogo.





O Telegraph diz:
"Still the Special One. Still the king of Stamford Bridge. Still the tactical grand master. Jose Mourinho, Inter’s inspiration, orchestrated Chelsea’s first home defeat in the Champions League in 22 games, sending his old club crashing out of the competition that Carlo Ancelotti was so expensively brought in to win."

O Special One falou assim no final.

É a primeira vez que o Inter ou uma equipa italiana se qualificam para os quartos-de-final desde 2005/06. As últimas vezes que equipas italianas foram a Inglaterra vieram de lá goleadas.
