3) Coentrao HAHAHAHAHAHAHA wtf you doing bro?

well its clear he was the first one to do that to rub it in mourinhos face because they lost.

i mean, its not the worst thing in the world but its definitely not mature. its something a 5 year old would do if someone didnt pick him for their team and then the 5 year old's team won.

how exactly was he rubbing it in his face? really dont understand where u see that

i cant really explain it any better than i did, but if you understand childish showboating than you would understand that's what sahin was doing.

Carlo owned Barca tactically with PSG, imagine what he can do with Real's better players. Not happy about the change at all.

He deserves credit for what he's done for Madrid. How can you guarantee that your next coach will reach higher limits than what Mourinho's achieved in the past three years? I wouldn't put my money on it.

What makes you say that?

How many coaches has made 7 CL semi finals?

And?

Success is measured in things won, not semi-finals reached.

and what? whats your point again?

so coaches who has never reached 7 CL semi finals should be rated higher because they have not lost more number of semi finals than mou ? incredible logic...

My point was, that attempting to measure success by "semi-finals reached" is as pathetic as it is futile.

It's like those buffoons here in England that think a top-four finish is some wonderful achievement.

That was pretty clear in my response, so what is it about that you don't quite understand?

So then a manager who has won two CLs but never gotten to the Semi's otherwise is as successful as Mou who has won two CLs and also gotten to 5 other semi's? (all other things equal)

Who counts "semi-finals reached" as success?

It's utter nonsense.

Madrid fans, show some respect for the love of god. I'm not a big fan of Mourinho but remember the days you got steamrolled by <insert shitty team that got annihilated the next round> at CL quarter finals. Or the days you lost to <insert second division team> at Copa.

It's not about that. It's his behavior.

This badger poster seems vaguely familiar...

7 semis, winning two and losing 5. Basically, a team managed by Mourinho is going to be in the running for a UCL final spot. If it were any other manager, this would actually be a good record but Mourinho called himself "special" so he gave himself high expectations that not even him can actually live up to.

He help make Real Madrid relevant in Europe again and the team can actually face Barcelona and believe they can win. So, unlike CBarca, he has my respect.

Most honest opinion you could get from a Barca fan, fact is they know they have a much easier life from now on, one nemesis less.

You're not fooling anyone, Carlo is as flexible as Mou tactically, he knows one way to play and that one isn't much different to what Mou provided, i'd say only thing Carlo has over Mou is that he won't eye gouge anyone.
