Jose Mourinho has a thin desired excavation aimed at both his former employers Chelsea and the current Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola in an explosive interview.
Mourinho, 62, is currently the head coach of the Turkish Super League side Fenerbahce, with whom he became a member in November last year.
Prior to the 2025-26 season, the Portuguese coach focused on Guardiola and Chelsea destructive criticism.
In particular, he seemed to call Guardiola because he “died with his idea” to play from behind when he came to Manchester City.
He mentioned the decision of the Spaniard to immediately replace the number one goalkeeper of England, Joe Hart, with Claudio Bravo and later Ederson.
With Portuguese TV channel Canal 11, via Marca, he said: 'If you die with your idea, you are stupid. Coaches must adjust their ideas to what they have. '
'Playing from behind with a wooden keeper is complicated. I remember Guardiola Hart, the best English keeper.
“But he wanted Claudio Bravo, but that wasn't enough. So he drew Ederson. '
Later in the interview he also criticized Chelsea for what he seemed to consider as a focus on winning by winning the club World Cup.
The blues brought an impressive performance in the final of the competition to sweep Champions League winners PSG aside in a one-sided 3-0 win.
Think about the tournament, Mourinho added, via Abola: 'Okay, this club world cup also emphasized a child who also had a great season in Chelsea, Cole Palmer.
'But this run to the semi -final remembered me every time I went to the US for the preseason with Real Madrid, with Inter reminded me of the games we played there.
“So I think this world cup title is only important for Chelsea, because they will sell many sweaters with the logo there.”
He went further by saying that he would pay more attention to the performance of PSG as the most recent winners of the Champions League.
After the sale of Kylian Mbappe to Real Madrid, the side of Luis Enrique was the dominant power in last season's competition and defeated Inter 5-0 in the final to win the trophy for the first time in their history.
He added: 'I think PSG was the big winner this season, not because of what they were doing in the interior, because they always win in their own country.
“But winning the Champions League and the way they did, especially with the idea of losing their best player.”
