Mourinho is Ready for Fightigng Andre Villas Boas

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Sat, 28 Sep 2013 05:39:00 +0000

Smiling knowingly as he walked into the conference room at Cobham, the day before he takes on former protege - and, by all accounts, former friend - Andre Villas-Boas for the first time at White Hart Lane, Jose Mourinho knew exactly what to expect.

In truth, he always does. This, as much as any football stadium his teams have competed in, is his arena. Over the years he has become the master, el puto amo, of saying as much as he wants to the media, even when he insists that he doesn't really want to say anything at all.

It is a fact, not a secret, that Villas-Boas and Mourinho have had no time for each other since the one-time opposition scout decided to spread his own managerial wings at club level with Academica de Coimbra. The reasons for the depth of ill-feeling, however, largely remained hidden from public view until the Tottenham manager addressed it in an interview with L'Equipe on Thursday.

"I was never his No.2," he insisted. "I was part of his staff, but I was never his assistant. That's one of the reasons we went our separate ways. I thought I could give him a lot more but he didn't feel the need to have someone next to him.

The high-profile duo were seen as expendable by Jose Mourinho "We had a super working relationship, we won, but, as soon as we parted ways, I started doing things my way. The comparisons come from the media and the first difference is our personalities."

After Villas-Boas expanded on his revelations during his pre-match press conference on Thursday, many expected Mourinho to exercise his right of reply the following day. He didn't – at least not in the kind of obvious way for which editors up and down the land were hoping.

"I don't describe [our relationship] because I don't discuss relationships with the media," he said coolly. "I don't care what he says and I'm not going to comment. I'm not interested."

Delivered in a calm, considered tone but a straight bat nonetheless. More questions inevitably followed. Was he looking forward to taking on his former understudy? "No," was the reply, followed by a pointed pause before he embarked on a standard matches-against-Tottenham-are-always-big-occasions answer.

What influence have you had on Villas-Boas's career and methods? "I have no idea. You have to ask him, it's not my problem. I had so many assistants and was always an open book to all of them. I'm trying to do the same with Chris Jones, Steve Holland and the coaches in the academy. After that if they want to read the book, it's not my problem."

While not overtly giving much away, the words carried a sense of curtness only usually reserved for subjects that irk Mourinho. There were no devastating put-downs or witty ripostes but the message delivered was just as emphatic: I don't care what he's said or done. I've had many assistants. He's nothing special. Ask me about something – or someone – that matters.

There were also, as there always is with Mourinho, a few thinly hidden barbs. He claimed Tottenham did worse under Villas-Boas's guidance last season than the two previous campaigns under Harry Redknapp, conveniently choosing to judge them on their final league position rather than the record points tally they amassed in an admittedly failed tilt at the top four.

When asked if beating Villas-Boas would mean more to him, the response was emphatic. "No. I played a Champions League final against a club where the manager was someone very important in my career, someone that gave me the chance to grow up and teach me so many things. I had to do it and did it in a professional way, and that's the way you have to do it."

This was classic Mourinho, invoking his own phenomenal managerial CV to pay tribute to Louis van Gaal while subtly rebuking Villas-Boas by comparison, for going public with his side of the story on their split and, in doing so, changing the focus of the game from the teams to the managers.

It is a part of Mourinho's approach which appears to have changed since his return to England. Prior to Chelsea's Super Cup showdown with Bayern Munich in Prague, he was similarly unwilling to stoke his personal rivalry with Pep Guardiola. Perhaps he has realised the distraction does not benefit his teams, or perhaps he is just biding his time and waiting for the perfect moment.

As it was, the mask of indifference towards Villas-Boas slipped with the last question, when an unfortunate journalist had the temerity to ask whether the spirit of Sir Bobby Robson would be present at White Hart Lane, given his huge influence on both coaches.

"Why?" he replied and repeated, feigning total ignorance of his countryman's debt to the man who sent him to Scotland to study for his coaching badges and gave him his first job at Porto. That Villas-Boas's elevation of Robson as his key influence rankles so much with Mourinho suggests that, despite his public pronouncements, he privately feels Villas-Boas has never shown him due gratitude.

Asked whether the pair will share a bottle of Portuguese wine after Saturday's match, Mourinho showed no emotion. "When people invite me I always go," he replied. "I never refuse."

Ancelotti Disappointed with Madrid's Recent Performance

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Thu, 26 Sep 2013 07:12:00 +0000

Although Madrid won last night match against Elche. Ancelotti still in doubt about his team's ability to control the game. A controversial stoppage-time penalty dispatched by Cristiano Ronaldo saw Madrid eventually bag the full three points, but Ancelotti warned his side that if they played at the same level on Saturday they will have no chance of beating cross-town rivals Atletico Madrid.

"I am not happy. We need to play differently. We suffered a lot during the match, particularly during the closing minutes of the match. Playing the way we did today, we are not going to win the derby," the Madrid coach said at a press conference.

Me in my personal opinion, have the same words as Ancelotti. Madrid is so poor today. They need improvement on many sector.

Lewandowski will be going to bayern Munich by January

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Wed, 25 Sep 2013 03:48:00 +0000

Dortmund's striker, Robert Lewandowski is going to change his uniform. he choose Bayern to be his new team. The transfer will be on January at a free transfer.

"Yes, because then I can officially sign the contract." Lewandowski said. So with the comes of Lewandowski, Muenchen striker will be replaced.

The Poland international has scored 80 goals in 149 appearances for Dortmund since joining from Lech Poznan in 2010 for an estimated €4.5 million.

I hope this transfer is a good decision for him because Me personally is a fans of him. I hope his future carrier will be brighter and can scores many goal for his new team.

Andre Villas Boas is on a Big Problem

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Sat, 26 Nov 2011 04:39:00 +0000

Chelsea/The Blues manager, Andre Villas Boas is on a big big problem now. It is due to several Chelsea's defeat. Chelsea is lose against Arsenal 5-3, Liverpool 2-1, and Leverkusen 2-1. Maybe it is because of Chelsea's poor defender performance.

Villas Boas also don't want Guus Hiddink to help him to solve the problem. Maybe he is too arrogant in my opinion. Guus Hiddink is a good coach and he must help chelsea to solve this problem if Chelsea want to win a throphy this season. Maybe Hiddink can help a little, or more.

Let we just see for several match later. Lets see whether Villas Boas can win or not?And if he cannot win, he must accept Hiddink or someone else to help him.

Manchester City Reveal Its Biggest Loss of £197m, It is The Biggest in England History

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Sat, 19 Nov 2011 02:10:00 +0000

Sheikh Mansour's Team, Manchester City is loss a lot of amount is this season. It is bigger that Chelsea of £141m in 05 with Abramovic. It is due to buying player like:
Edin Dzeko for £27m
David Silva for £26m
James Milner for £26m
Yaya Touré for £24m
Mario Balotelli for £24m
Aleksandar Kolarov for £19m
Jérôme Boateng for £10.5m
Total: £156.5m
It is a huge amount. But I see why is this buying is done by Cyty. It is to make Mancini's squad can compete against United. Remember the 6-1!.

Abidal from Barcelona Still Doesnt Renew His Contract

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Thu, 17 Nov 2011 22:27:00 +0000

Abidal, his position: Defender in the Barcelona team, is not yet renew his contract. It is because he is not yet agree to the number of the contract. Abidal is 32 age years old now, in my opinion, he should be retired. I think Barcelona is also doubtful about decision wether to renew his contract or not. And now the negotiation still take place.

Turkey fired Guus Hiddink after Turkey fail on Euro2012. Turkey is not qualified after lose against Kroasia 3-0 in play-off. It is his fault as Turkey fail in Euro. Hiddink is good with South Korea, an also another team, I do not know what his problem is. Hiddink is good as player too.

Ireland Goes To Euro 012

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Tue, 15 Nov 2011 23:45:00 +0000

Ireland goes to euro2012 after draw with Estonia 1-1(aggregate 5-1), this score is enough to travel Ireland to Euro 012. Goal is made Stephen Ward in '31 and Estonia(Konstantin Vassiljef in '57). And what role, Ireland will be in Euro 1 years again? Maybe is not as significant as Spain, Italy, or England, but, we must be careful in Ireland, it can become stumbling block to another team.

Kroasia and Cech Rep. also qualified to Euro.

Uruguay Beats Chile, And Suarez Scored All

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Mon, 14 Nov 2011 10:16:00 +0000

In World Cup Qualification yesterday, Uruguay beats Chile 4-0. This score is quite surprising because Chile is not a weak team. This victory is determined by Suarez, as he scored all of the goals. Suarez performance was just amazed everyone. His scoring sense, his touch, all is just perfect for the match. And Chile? Why Chile lost, I think it is because the weakness of its defense and its goalkeeper. Or maybe Chile's coach?

Liverpool is Interest on D.Villa

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Mon, 14 Nov 2011 07:26:00 +0000

You know David Villa. In my opinionHe is the best Spanish striker. He 90% can scores a goal in many position. And now, Liverpool is in interest on David. Liverpool wants Villa as to change Torres who is also Spanish uniform, same as Villa. Now, D.Villa is on a problem with L.Messi in Barcelona, and it will make Liverpool's chance is bigger.
