JM special one ❤❤
Special scam!!!
finished coach and special crying one
epic, Always nice to see Jose Mourinho in football, he brings so much passion to the game! Legend!
Mourinho é um treinador muito exigente, que costuma demandar alto investimento em contratações e ter controle total sobre a estrutura do clube. No entanto, o Benfica, apesar de ser um grande clube em Portugal, tem limitações orçamentárias que podem entrar em conflito com as necessidades do treinador.
Além disso, o histórico de Mourinho em lidar com clubes menores, como o Fenerbahçe, mostra que sua personalidade forte e seu estilo de liderança nem sempre se adaptam bem a ambientes com muita pressão da torcida e limitações estruturais. Isso poderia se repetir no contexto do Benfica.
Portanto, embora Mourinho seja um treinador de elite, a combinação do seu perfil com a realidade do Benfica pode não ser a ideal, aumentando os riscos de atritos e resultados insatisfatórios para ambas as partes.
❤❤
4:43 I hate that he's grouping Benfica up with "lower caliber teams" Benfica has been a regular in the UCL knockout phases.
Mourinho again in champions league ,!
If he won a Champions League with Porto, then maybe he could help Benfica to win also, not saying he will but maybe he can
Vamossss❤❤❤Benfica
mourinho is the goat
Now it’s time to get compensations from Benfica 😂
He will destroy Benfica.he was there before you guys had no clue what you talking about
مستر موووو❤🎉
8 or 9 top teams in England? Maybe in investment, not in club relevance or world impact…
Mourinho had a standing ovation in Porto's stadium a days ago. He will be respected even being Benfica's manager. Mourinho is much bigger than the rivalry. I am portuguese and i don't expect nothing less.
Why did you guys make no post about benfica Garabag game?
Last year you made Brest world stars, Qarabag deserves the same. They played exceptional game against Benfica.
Porto7
"Benfica Porto, "darby" of all "darbies"." Different cities clubs….
Good luck! I checked eufa championship schedule, and it seems Mou has some mission almost impossible.
The Special One 🙌
Please God Make this happen Mourinho at UCL night it will be soo nostalgic 😢
Benfica is bigger than all English clubs except Man United and Liverpool
Guy in the middle continues to.mess up the J in José
How can you call yourself a footy commentator and still say " Hosé" when talking about Mourinho?
Thank goodness . Hopefully this will keep him away from our national team 😂
He was a assistant coach at Sporting , Porto, ditched Benfica like a plague and proceeded to win Europa and champions with PORTO, EPL with Chelsea and Champions league with inter. Everything since has been mediocrity or failing considering the players and money he had at his disposal.
Let's get ready for parked bus Benfica , crying about referees and a big package after he gets sacked .
The over pronunciation is off the charts! 😂
Mourinho went from the Special One to the forgotten one bouncing from club to club. Hopefully he can rise again.
He will be the one to break the Benfica curse !
Mourinho is going to make history at Benfica mark my words !!!
Don't forget he single handedly exposed the Turkish league and tier mafia ….
hahaha. So Mourinho got eliminated by Benfica in CL play-offs by a single goal from Akturkoglu. He trashed talked about the Fenerbahce president and got sacked. He got 12m euro payout and went on to run Benfica 😀 Benfica also sold Akturkoglu to Benfica for $26m. So, Mourinho cost Fenerbahce around 70m euro 😀 LOVE HIM
A different calibre of team?😂Benfica have been bad these last few seasons but they’re one of the most experienced teams in the champions league and Europe these commentators are hilarious this guy clearly doesn’t know much and Mourinho aside he clearly doesn’t know much about the rivalry between Porto and Benfica
I'm surprised Benfica sacked Lage. Over one loss in the UCL with more games yet to play? They are 6th in Portugal on 10 points. 3 wins, 1 draw, 0 losses. How is that a bad record??
Qarabag🥶🇦🇿
Very interesting
He should have wait for the portugal job, martinez contract expires on july 2026
