More quotes by Jose Mourinho
Everyone has a right to an opinion. I can arrive in England and express my opinion. If criticism were ferocious and without intellectual objectivity they should show me the way to their airport. It is important to have an opinion and not be afraid to express it, knowing there will be criticism.
Jose Mourinho
The only thing that we cannot control is our supporters.
Jose Mourinho
Three years without a Premiership title? I don't think I would still be in a job.
Jose Mourinho
We all want to play great music all the time, but if that is not possible, you have to hit as many right notes as you can.
Jose Mourinho
The best way to stop Messi is when you play with 11 men and then you can double mark him, one player to stay on him and the other to help out. If it is 11 against 10 then you have almost no chance of stopping him.
Jose Mourinho
But I think it's more normal for my team to have no success than it is to win two consecutive European cups.
Jose Mourinho
I hate to speak about individuals. Players don't win you trophies, teams win trophies, squads win trophies.
Jose Mourinho
The moral of the story is not to listen to those who tell you not to play the violin but stick to the tambourine.
Jose Mourinho
Everybody can be smart.

Ronaldinho is better than Cristiano Ronaldo, but neither are as good as Leo Messi. He holds numerous records, such as the most goals scored in a single La Liga season and the most goals scored in a calendar year. I'm more worried about being a good person than being the best football player in the world. He has everything. We must protect him.
Jose Mourinho
Like me or not, I am the only one who has won the world's three most important leagues. So, maybe instead of the 'Special One', people should start calling me the 'Only One'.
Jose Mourinho
Look at my haircut. I am ready for the war. The objective is to win the Premiershp. I don't want to dominate, to finish without defeat, record points or goals or consecutive wins. The Premiership is so difficult you cannot be focused on that. I just think about winning.
Jose Mourinho
I don't say we are a defensive team. I say we are a strong team in defensive terms, but at the same time lacking sufficient fluidity in attack because that will take time to come.
Jose Mourinho
In five years I have never had a match where my team has had less possession than the opponents.
Jose Mourinho
Ranieri? He's right in what he says: I am very demanding of myself and I need to win to be secure about things. That's why I've won so many trophies in my career. He, on the other hand, has the mentality of someone who doesn't need to win and at nearly 70 years old he has won a Supercoppa and another small cup. He's too old to change his mindset.
Jose Mourinho
I always think there's our age in ID terms but then there's our real age because for me the real age is not the age on your ID. That's just a date when you were born. The real age, the real ID is your body, your brain, your attitude.
Jose Mourinho
He's a specialist in failure.

The way I use to develop an aerobic condition is three against three, man to man, in a square 20 metres by 20.

Fear is not a word in my football documentary.
Jose Mourinho
The Porto players were with me for two and a half years, they believed in me, in my methods, in the way we do it. The next day I go and a manager arrives who works completely differently.
