Exactly. Why is it on the players?
He is an unpleasant person on the long run. Just look how much trouble he caused in RM before he left. He took it further and fired shots at Ronaldo after he signed for Chelsea.
He is not easy to love, always bad mouthing the competition, bad mouthing other coaches, causing unnecessary drama, blaming referees even when his team doesn't do the bare minimum to win anyone's sympathy.
Has anyone forgot how he put his finger in Tito's eyeball? How he tried to kick someone's face?
I don't get Mourinho's sympathizers, it's not like he is the only successful manager out there. He is a nasty person and his team players get sick of his personality on the long run.

How am I sympathizing with him? Many great managers in history aren't good people SAF hit Beckham with a boot FFS and has had clashes with a number of players, Brian Clough was notoriously antagonistic, Aragones was a racist etc... All of these guys had situations rise up that they neutralized quickly, Mourinho doesn't seem to be able to do the same because his approach is more of a short term impact option.
This isn't showing him sympathy it's criticizing him get that right.

Huh? I was agreeing with you, completely
