I can understand people saying this season was a failure for him... But his total time there? Nah. |
1- It's not like Madrid were a mess before he showed up. They were only 3 points away from barca with 96 the season before he came.
2- Well, many don't really care about that it's quite minor, but I guess it is something.
3- Again minor trophy.
4- That would have been amazing for many clubs but not Madrid. The team with limitless resources. I mean the guy won it with Porto and Inter for god's sake.
Madrid made the biggest offer in history (I believe) for Mourinho, do you think they expected 3 trophies and non of them being a Champions League?
Atletico won 4 trophies since Mourinho came to Madrid.
