Xabi Alonso played:
◉ 82 games for Carlo Ancelotti
◉ 79 games for Pep Guardiola
As managers, all three have a 100% record in the league so far this season. 😤
It's ironic how easy people forget that Roma are still the last Italian club to win European trophy. Before Roma? Jose Mourinho's Inter Milan. That's football heritage.
You treat my manager like a villain when he had a problem with Pogba, today you are doing everything to back your manager over arguably the best player in the history of football. You deserve nothing but failure utd fans.
28 year old Perisic was too old. Today they are signing a 30 year old striker with 1 relegation on his CV, but because the coach is not Jose Mourinho, so it's acceptable.
Manchester United have been offered the chance to sign Wout Weghorst as new striker — exploring the conditions of the deal as

reported. 🔴

€10m buy option is included in the deal so it’s up to Besiktas and Burnley. The player already gave his green light.
Let's ask the likes Sneidjer, Drogba, Zlatan, Lampard, Terry, Cristiano, Casillas, Ramos, Materazzi, Zanetti, Deco, etc how was the feel being coached by Mourinho? And they will reply absolutely the opposite of what Pogba said.
“It’s not important how we play. If you have a Ferrari and I have a small car, to beat you in a race I have to break your wheel or put sugar in your tank.”
-Jose Mourinho-
Aitor Karanka went unbeaten in his first 4 La Liga games with Granada and brought them out from relegation zone. 2 wins and 2 draw. Proper Mourinho guy.
The fact is Leicester winning the league with €40m net spend, meanwhile Jose Mourinho winning his third PL title with -€5m net spend isn't talked about enough. The hype is on another level.
Quality of players is affected by who is his coach is, he was beast when Nuno Santos were there, since he started to be coached by Cardiff and Ajax GK coach, he started declining. It's really simple.
The fact one of them spent 60m on a player, meanwhile another one was given the likes Carlos Vinicius and Gedson Fernandes. What happens today is the karma for how they treated Jose Mourinho, not Conte.
Jose Mourinho treatment for Zalewski is the perfect example how to manage young players. In the future there has to be a book of Jose's guide to manage young players in the his way.
For me, Jose Mourinho's personal branding is on different level for a football manager. He doesn't even need a LinkedIn account to be paid £14m a year 😄
After I know Mourinho, I start learning that football is not about how you set the tactic, but also about psychologycal aspect. Hiring Mourinho means you also hire a psychologist.
Jose wanted Bruno Fernandes and Weghorst at Spurs, today they are Man Utd player. Varane and Casemiro were also promoted by Jose to the Real senior team. Dalot is also Jose's signing. You hate him but you can't go away from him.
Imagine next manager generation will mostly be filled by Mourinho students. Amorim, Xabi Alonso, Thiago Motta. There will never be another Mourinho. His effect for football is at least 10x bigger than Cruyff's.
Jamie Carragher: "They've never had a manager at this level, people say Mourinho but it wasn't Mourinho in his prime, 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲'𝐯𝐞 𝐠𝐨𝐭 𝐚 𝐭𝐨𝐩 𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐫 in his prime right now." 🙌🇮🇹
Jose did nothing there, and still got himself trending. Imagine if they continued the ban, nobody would talk about Roma Juve game. The impact Jose gives is second to none, nobody is bigger than him in football.
The next Roma coach will have a dream job of his life because Jose Mourinho has already prepared everything for him, in every condition. If Roma are to win the Scudetto three times in a row or the CL in 10 years, don't forget to give Jose Mourinho a massive credit.
Jose said that he was sacked in the morning and AS Roma called him in the afternoon. That call from Pinto might be the greatest thing to happen for Roma since the last Scudetto.
Jose came to the PL, Arsenal hasn't won PL since then. Jose also stopped 'the greatest ever' Barca team to win the CL and dominate Spain. I think it's reasonable if we find Arsenal and Barca fans hate Mourinho, it's not their fault tho, it ain't easy to move on 🤣
Jose was said as terrorist when he wanted 28 yo Perisic at Old Trafford, then few years later, they say Ole is visioner to sign 34 yo Cavani. The standards are different, people see Jose with different eyes.
I still don't understand how Roma and Jose worked for convincing Dybala to join, his salary in Juve was at 13m a year, now he is 4,5m a year and playing in Europa League. Jose's pull is second to none.
Jose Mourinho has to be really careful to choose his next project. Don't say Roma project was bad but the reality it didn't fulfill his ambition. Jose Mourinho must be treated as Jose Mourinho, Roma's mistake is they hired Jose but gave him Fonseca treatment.
The last time Roma manager signed a player for the third time which it was when Capello bought Christian Panucci in 2001, Roma won the scudetto. This season, Mourinho signs Matic for the third time....
🗣️ 'It sunk into me the feelings and moments Jose, Pep or Sir Alex must have had throughout their careers'
David Moyes on finally enjoying that trophy winning feeling 🏆
He gave the fans a joy that they never got before. I saw lot of Roma fans crying like a kid when watching Roma win the UECL. You wanted Jose, you got Jose. Now time for the next project. Thanks Roma.
My manager attracts players like Tammy Abraham and Sergio Oliveira meanwhile yours being rejected by Adama Traore and Luis Diaz. We aren't the same I am sorry.
Mourinho haters (which is mostly Utd fans) say that no big club would want to hire him anymore. They just forget that Jose was already in Roma job, and Real Madrid still made him their first option.
The only reason people watched Tottenham Hotspur's All Or Nothing is Jose Mourinho. They have to thank to Jose Mourinho because Arsenal's All Or Nothing will not beat them.
Pep appreciates Mourinho, Ancelotti appreciates Mourinho, Klopp appreciates Mourinho, Allegri appreciates Mourinho, only manager with bad cv like De Boer, Di Canio who don't appreciate him
I don't care too much about the amount of money given to Mourinho, I only care about the amount of trust given to Mourinho to build this Roma team. He is really smart on transfer, he is the only manager to win Premier League with negative net spend.
🔴⚫️ Bayer Leverkusen win 3-0 vs Bayern and it’s still unbeaten this season in all competitions.

Xabi Alonso masterclass. 🎓
So, Jose has only been in Roma for 1 year and he has rejected Madrid and gonna reject PSG. I am supposed to believe that no big clubs want him anymore 😆
Roma spent £113m last season, £37m of those was used for Ibanez, Reynolds, and Kumbulla (buying obligation from previous season). It means Jose only spent £76m on players he really signed. Mou haters used to say he was given £150m budget and finished 6th. Enough is enough.
Fenerbahce only won one trophy in the last 10 years, last won the league in 2014, then Jose Harry Potter Mourinho comes next season and he will be expected to win everything.
Jose Mourinho didn't lose 5-0 to Roma's biggest rival but he is like getting more pressure than a certain manager who has just brought his club to 5-0 defeat against their biggest rival.
Arteta is victim of "Tiki Taka" merchant because he was Pep assistant, so that Arsenal fans expect him to play what they say "Tiki taka". He actually is more Mourinho than Pep in term how he reacts to the opponent.
José Mourinho: "We'll see if tomorrow comes someone who can help us, who can push Tammy to do even more. We all know who I'm talking about. I saw Tammy in the interview, he made it sound like he played a great game but today he was horrible."
😂😂😂
People said Dybala has downgraded by joining Roma. They forget last season there were only three European champions and what I know is he joins one of those three.
Playing in UEL, offering lower salary than Napoli who play in the CL, I think if I say it's Mourinho effect, it's reasonable. Without Mourinho, Dybala would sign for Napoli instead.
In another universe with different reality and no hypocrisy there, Mourinho might have brought Utd win the PL at least two times and at least one CL trophy since 18/19. If only I could go to that universe only to tell people that the reality in my universe is full of hypocrisy.
Roma fans booing the players showing how much they love Jose Mourinho.
They lost someone who brought back the enthusiasm to the Olimpico, and now he has gone!
Tammy, Zaniolo, Dybala, and Belotti in front is a massive upgrade for Jose after getting the likes Dele Ali, Troy Parrot, Rashford, Martial, etc... I am happy that finally my manager can take care of his mental health
🚨❌ 𝐎𝐅𝐅𝐈𝐂𝐈𝐀𝐋 | Xabi Alonso will not be on the bench for Leverkusen's away match vs Frankfurt tomorrow, he has accumulated too many yellow cards!
His assistant Sebastian Parrilla (🇦🇷) will take over who also worked extensively at Real Madrid before.
Jose Mourinho must enjoy his life very well. Being sacked in the morning, in the afternoon there are already some reports linking him with some jobs. That's a life of a special one.
What Mourinho has to do after his Roma contracy expires : back to Madrid and win the Champions League with them, then retire. It's enough for his career.
You can only cry today, at one point in your club history, you had the only chance to restore the history of this club after SAF retired, but you all disappointed him. Now enjoy your 30 year PL trophy drought.
In 3-5 years, if Roma decide to not backing Jose then sack him, there will also be an article made by Italian Journalist titled, "Jose Mourinho has been proven right about Roma's problems." I hope Roma learn.
🔴🔵 BOLOGNA GO 7 GAMES UNBEATEN IN SERIE A! ⚡️
Huge 2-1 win over Atalanta! Thiago Motta's side now 4 points clear in 4th spot.
Battling for UCL spot. 🇪🇺✈️
Roma fans, now see Utd and Utd fans, they are suffering now because they were deluded, they didn't listen Jose, they didn't back Jose. Just want to remind you Roma fans, if you back him fully, you will get success, but if not, you know the answer.
