Personally, I like characters like him...
But he's taking it to far, it's good to show SOME class. To me, he's just a sore looser right now, not a great character. Kind of pathetic if you ask me. I've lost a lot of respect for him.
May I ask exactly, why?
People complain he blasted Barcelona after last week's game, but if it was anyone other than Mourinho, would he be bashed in the same way? He felt cheated out of the game just like millions of Real Madrid supporters...
First let's start with Mou's history with Barcelona: 7 red cards vs them...
1- Drogba in 2005. (Rijkaard is seen talking with Frisk at half-time, Drogba gets red carded, Chelsea lose 2-1 after being 1-0 up, Mourinho says what he saw, Frisk receives death threats and quits the game, people label Mou the enemy of football)
2- Del Horno in 2006. (Messi dive, Mourinho blasts Messi after the game)
3- Motta in 2010. (Busquetes playacting, nothing is done from Uefa)
4- Ramos in the 5-0 trashing.
5- Albiol in La Liga. (Alves commits a penalty, and he already had a yellow card, yet he didn't receive a 2nd yellow. Albiol got a straight red)
6- Di Maria in the cup win.
7- Pepe last week.
At least 4 or 5 of these could easily be considered bullshit red cards...
then think of the last 3 clasicos, were Messi (and generally Barca) never scored vs Real when they were with 11 men...
and recall how Pepe owned/outmusceled/outplayed/completely shut out Messi from the game(s)...
add to that the fact that Barcelona are on most days unplayable yet instead of bending over like most teams do, Mourinho actually decided to try to beat them... like he did last year and instead of getting credit for it, his brand of football was labeled "anti-football" etc... and people degraded from the victory as if it's WRONG to use different tactics than possession football, and as if defending and counterattacking are frowned upon and are not part of the beautiful game...
then remember how the sore losers from Barcelona reacted last season by turning on the sprinklers the minute they lost so that Inter merda don't celebrate and when Valdez tried to pick a fight with Mou for celebrating his team's (and his) brilliant victory... and remember how they heroically pulled a win after playing most of the game with 10 men due to Busquetes shameful diving... the dive that not only led Inter merda to play with 10 men for most of the match and play at an unfair disadvantage which was in a way a contributing reason for Mou and his team to park the bus (then get criticized for it ), but also made Motta unfairly miss the final... yet Uefa did NOTHING about it even though it was well documented to the world... the same governing body that banned Drogs for 6 matches (?) for telling the truth like it was.... when he deemed the ref for their scandalous match vs Chelsea a "fucking disgrace"...
and then also consider that it is almost impossible to defeat Barca in a 2 legged game and even harder to do it 2 seasons in a row, but it is almost impossible to do it with bullshit refereeing. Madrid went into the match already missing Carvalho and Khedira and had to not concede at the Bernabeu with Ramos risking suspension...
Taking all that into consideration, it becomes a little bit easier to see things from Mou's perspective. He was playing for the 0-0 until the ~ 60th min to try to tire Barca then counter their asses just like he did in the cup final and won, and just as he was getting Kaka ready to enter in place of Lass... Pepe gets an unfair BULLSHIT red card... totally kills the match. Not only was Pepe arguably man of the match in the 2 earlier clasicos, but he was also the single most important part of Mourinho's puzzle... he was Messi's man marker and he did a damn good job at that. He also had a 2nd role of sweeping the midfield along with Alonso and Lass and to make sure the team keeps its clean sheet. Until the unfair BULLSHIT red card, Madrid's plan was working. Clean sheet at home (were Barca's goals would count for 2 if the aggregate score is tied), and ready to attack...
In the play leading to the red card... Alves dives like he had been shot. He rolls on the floor (how could he roll on an injured leg?!) and screams for help... Pepe is shown red... Alves tries to stand up but Barca's medics push him to stay down and carry him out of the field... pathetic...
Mourinho just stands their feeling cheated once again. He had seen it happen before too many times, seven times actually lol... it's always Barca... no matter what he or other teams does, they always have to get disadvantaged for Barcelona to win... while all these thoughts come rushing in as he feels his game plan had been fucked over with Pepe's unfair BULLSHIT red card and Ramos' EXTEREMLY soft yellow which will force him to miss today's match... he reacts by winking at the 4th official and telling him "well done"... shortly after... he's red carded himself!!!!!
Not long time passes and then Messi scores twice to almost kill the tie, while the Barca midgets continue to disgrace themselves with their unsportsmanlike behavior. Busquetes (especially provided us with a dive worthy of competing of his last year's semi final dive vs Inter), Pedro, Villa, and Mascherano dive all over the place... Xavi talks to the ref every 23 secs... and Busquetes yells racist remarks at Marcelo while covering his mouth...
Just think for a moment how it feels when you lose. And then think how it feels when you lose to your worst enemy. And then think how it feels when you lose to your worst enemy after giving your best. Then think how it feels when you lose to your worst enemy after giving your best but being handicapped and cheated out of the game!!! and NOT for the 1st or even 2nd time!!!!!
After the game, Mourinho just said what was on his mind. And he had every right to do so, considering all the FACTS mentioned above. Yet people are blaming him for what? for reacting to being fucked over again and again and again????
AND AS IF THAT WASN'T ENOUGH! Barca start the childish games by reporting Mou to Uefa! wtf?!!!!! then everyone complains when Real report Barca's diving and racist remarks, which unlike Barca's pathetic bullshit report that only serves to add fuel to the fire and show how bitter and obsessed with Mou they are, Real's complaint is based on real merits when you consider how Barca are so unsportsmanlike and always get the refs favors yet NOTHING is EVER done about it. And Real only reacted to Barcelona's bullshit...
So today Mourinho will not be on the bench with his team... they will be missing Ramos and Pepe... and playing vs a 2-0 deficit at the Camp Nou... while Barca will be playing with full troops despite EXCESSIVE diving (that was well documented AND reported) and using racist slurs, and their fans will most likely insult Mou for the 90 mins and their team will pass the ball around until they bore everyone to death, while they dive and surround the ref to get unfair calls, and then after the match comment that they deserved to win because they play football the proper way while Real and Mou are anti-football, and the Catalan flag will be raised while they chant insults at Spain. Also don't forget that Messi will be hailed as the best player in history despite doing fuck all in two World Cups and doing nothing of note when Pepe was marking him.... gloryhunters will gloat...
Yet after ALL that, Mourinho is the one who is destroying football.
Mou's UNFAIR reputation makes people judge him and his actions wrongly. Just one last thing... Drogs was banned for 6 matches for saying it was a "fucking disgrace"... how much will Pinto be banned for slapping Arbeloa and pushing a Madrid employee to the ground for absolutely no reason?!!!
