He is not the special one any more, he is the chosen one , the magic one , the gets it done one , THE ONLY ONE [ EXCLUDING SIR ALEX ] good luck Jose not that you need it just do what you do my son !
He will always be in the conversation of the best in the world. And that's enough.
Jose Mourinho is the best coach football has never had.
Build teams, won with clubs none of your coach mentioning would have never won.
So please elevate your punditry. You are so low.
Fire that guy
you would think Troy is a champions league or Ballon Dior winner, brother is a petty emotional loser!😂
lol just one game let the man cook
this troy hate RM so much. So biased.
Dechamps? Wtfs this guy smoking
This guy with silver suit jacket is a mbappe hurter have seen him over time he tries to water down everything that mbappe does my question is sir you were a footballer you were 10 times less than mbappe why didn’t you give that advise to yourself
Making the craziest assessments after the first game of the season is laughable
The sensationalism and doom and gloom with Madrid is stale now get over with it and let the season play out it’s ridiculous
Can pep win the league and champions league with Roma, fernabahce and benfica. Bias analysis
Asernal hasn't even won a champions League but somehow they're favorite, mancity has been favorite for like 5 years straight but only won once, Real Madrid can win the champions League with the likes of Lucas Vasquez so don't get it twisted we're always in the conversation.
Who is that guy who spoke first, what are the club he played in for his career?
Always sitting and talking rubbish about Madrid.
Stupid former player.
If you put Pep Guardiola or Carlo Ancelotti in AS Roma, could they win the Conference League in the first season and reach the Europa League final in the second?
Troy coward
To listen to Troy trash talk Is exhausting, not only annoying
Who are these losers judging Jose and Real Madrid after 1 game
Vinicius jr problem remain the same.Against Espanyol he holds the ball for long time when he can pass the ball to his team mates early.zI dont know why he does that too often.He has to play for the team and club and for himself.
The story of real madrid is basically everyone doubting them, undermining them and then being proven wrong.
Great studio but also upgrade the panelist with Champions'
The difference with pep is that Mou wins champions league with underdogs…
This troy guy doesn't even hide his bias against real Madrid. In his eyes Madrid has never done anything good.
This Troy guy has so much negative aura even his expressions looks miserable, i have never ever heard him say nice things idk maybe its cause i only watch the Madrid segments. Bro has decided who wins the league after one game its over take his word for it dont watch the games !!
Mourinho success at Spurs, Fenerbahce, Benfica & Roma is relative to the standards of those clubs.
Roma & Spurs are not league winning clubs and they do not have resources to do so. Taking Roma to back-to-back Europe finals and winning 1 is not a failure but a success for a mid table club.
Taking Spurs to a final & be fired before the game is played is unfair to blame Mourinho as a failure.
Coaching Fenerbahce is like coaching Dortmund and expecting them to win the league against Bayern(Galatasaray) and then finishing 2nd you classify it as failure. That's madness and unrealistic.
With Benfica, all what happened is just Mourinho joined the club already behind league leaders but he still managed to qualify for Europe.
I must be clueless, because I genuinely cannot understand how anyone can judge a manager’s ability to turn a team into contenders after his first official game, a game we actually won. Yet these pundits are already saying, “I’m not seeing that this team has changed.” Based on what? One match? That isn’t analysis; it’s just noise dressed up as expertise. And the irony is that the same people then make sweeping claims while getting basic facts wrong. The best example is the guy on the right confidently saying Mourinho never won La Liga, then shifting to the Champions League as if it were “one or the other.” Mourinho won the Champions League with Porto and Inter, clubs where doing so was anything but inevitable. When he arrived at Real Madrid, they had spent around a decade failing to get beyond the Champions League Round of 16. Under him, they reached the semifinals repeatedly, broke Barcelona’s dominance, won La Liga with a record points total, and built a squad and structure that later managers like Zidane and Ancelotti inherited and developed further. That doesn’t diminish those managers’ achievements. It simply means context matters, which is apparently the first thing these pundits forgot. What frustrates me most is that there is no real attempt to analyse football: no context, no process, no tactical reasoning, no patience. Just recycled talking points, exaggerated certainty and “content” for the sake of content. Replace them with almost anyone and you’d probably get the same thing.
It’s basically TikTok culture applied to punditry: less analysis, more trash talk. And honestly, that’s the depressing part. Football deserves better than people projecting opinions before there is even enough evidence to form one. Give the manager time, watch the team develop, examine what actually changes, and then judge. That is the bare minimum of common sense, never mind serious analysis.
0:34 Haters gonna hate
For me Jose is #1 on that list.
Rise and shine another hate propaganda against Real Madrid 😂😂😂 these 🤡 don't get tired.
Rating a coach following a single game is unnecessary.
😢😮😊❤4
