Jose Mourinho is a wizard : How the Special One continues to win football


If you haven't seen this story, then feel free to pop off now and check out the details on a more reputable football news site. Ok, got it?

Now firstly lets make this clear, I am a HUGE Jose Mourinho fan. He is the best manager in the world - he knows this, I know this and when he takes Real to the double this year, the world will know this. 

So to see that UEFA are intending to investigate further into the Xabi Alonso and Sergio Ramos's red cards, certainly made me chuckle, and im sure Jose will be having a little chuckle of his own. How many managers would even consider this masterstroke of gamemanship? (ok, some have, but not many) let alone have the balls to implement it, not just with one but two players in the same game?

In the same way that Jose has and always will be mentally one step ahead of other managers, he has now taken this to the next level. Outwitting football.

That is correct. Jose Mourinho has outwitted the very rules of the sport we love so dear. Sure UEFA seem a bit pissed off that Jose used a loophole in the rules - but with no rules broken, they have not got a leg to stand on. That is unless UEFA have been practising there mind reading technique, because without that, how do they expect to prove whether Xavi and Sergio did or did not get intentionally dismissed?

So UEFA, dont give Jose a hard time. Its not his fault that he is on a higher intellectual plain to everyone else - mayby its your rules that need to change.

In summary - Jose Mourinho is a wizard. You may be interested to know that his wand has 2 of Brian Clough's boot laces as its core, from which he takes his superpowers.
