A moment that is worth watching. In the midst of so many basic questions that are asked to José Mourinho (and most coaches) on a weekly basis, the journalist of a smaller media outlet [Bola na Rede] asked the following question: "Mr, you already highlighted your game plan of attracting Napoli's pressure to then be able to explore the space in behind, I wanted to ask you about the build-up. What was the importance of Barrenechea [CDM] dropping wide and playing facing towards the opposition, and then Aursnes moving wide in the other side? How important was that in the build-up?" Mourinho: "You know your football. Well done, you know your football... Maybe they'll get you to substitute one of the other 'know it alls' that don't actually know anything. Great question." "Our CDM's wide positioning caused them trouble because they only had 2 midfielders, Elmas and McTominay, so if they pressed we would have more space in the middle, and if they didn't press, Enzo would have time on the ball."

José Mourinho talks about Viktor Gyokeres: "He is a great player, I don't have any doubts of that. But Sporting had a way of playing that either depended on him or was adapted to him, I'm not sure how Hugo Viana and Amorim thought initially. Still, he has great potential. Obviously in England he will face stronger teams, but he is a great player. Unfortunately, out of the thousands of lies that have been said throughout the transfer market, it was also a lie that he would go to Fenerbahche."

José Mourinho speaks about Manchester United, the changes at the club and Rúben Amorim. "The critical moment is when both Sir Alex and David Gill leave. David Moyes comes in, not me, but I explain the story better in my Netflix documentary. When I arrive, the club is still living that crisis. We won trophies and we finished 2nd. I still say I don't understand the clubs that are punished by the FFP in cash, because usually the clubs who break the FFP have enough money to pay the fines. They should pay with points. And if they paid with points, we could have won the league because Man City would have been punished in points, not fines. I talk about this to say that, still, it wasn't enough for me to have stability and continuity. Today, with the new ownership in the club, and I see what happened with Rúben, having Manchester United's worst ever Premier League season, and still having the trust to continue, the trust to carry on being himself with his own ideas… I think that's a sign that there is a lot changing within the club. I think we all agree he is a coach with great potential and character. With stability, I think he has in hands an incredible potential to do a great job at Manchester United."

If you think José Mourinho's rants are wild, his first ever rant was completely insane. In 2000, Mourinho had only 8 career matches as a coach, when his Benfica player, Sabry, called him out in public. Mourinho's reply was crazy. "It's not easy for a coach to like a player who has an absurd average of offsides per game, that doesn't know how to position himself, that runs away from the pressure in away matches, that in the last few games was 3 times one on one with the goalkeeper and didn't score a goal, that at half-time, when I'm more aggressive, goes to the secretary to complain and say he's afraid of me. It's not easy for a coach to like a player like this. Then he says I never speak with him and the relationship is not correct. I have a little book about my individual meetings with the players, everything is there. With Sabry, who says I never speak with him, I had 7 individual meetings. Not one, not two, seven. And of the seven meetings, three of them were in the past 4 days. I spoke with him, but he doesn't like the things I tell him. Then he says that playing only 20 minutes in a match is little for him. Well, the only time he played only 20 minutes was against Paços de Ferreira, when he took 8 minutes just to put on his boots. Sabry left me a message via the media, so I feel perfectly confortable leaving him a message via the media as well. So I want to leave a message to Sabry and to the fans: This is Benfica, not Paok Salonica [Sabry's former club]." José Mourinho was a head coach for a little over a month. Insane😂

Mourinho comments on football's recent tactical revolution. "I think the problem is when people want to make copy-paste without having the conditions for it. If you want a full-back playing inside, you need a player with a certain adaptability. If a full-back is weak on attack, I like to say that he shouldn't attack from the inside or from the outside. He should stay back and build alongside the centre-backs. Something I don't like is when I see coaches trying to copy-paste things they saw but doing it in completely different contexts. If you want to build with the goalkeeper with a goalkeeper that has a wooden leg, it will be complicated. For example, when Pep arrived to Manchester City, the goalkeeper was the best English goalkeeper, which was Joe Hart. Pep didn't want Joe Hart, he wanted Claudio Bravo, coming from Barcelona with that culture of playing from behind. But then it wasn't enough, he wanted more than Claudio Bravo, so he signed Ederson, who could play short and long. If you want to copy-paste the ideas of a coach who can buy, and buy, and buy, it will be complicated. And then you also have those coaches who try to do things that just don't work, and because of that they die, but they say 'I died but I died by my ideas'. My friend, if you died by your ideas you are stupid."
