Me too! I laughed like buggery when 'The special one' was sent off. As for Messi he's not quite as good as me in my younger days, he needs to work on his orange sucking at half time in my opinion.

I thought it was a disgrace of a game that didn't deserve to be graced with Messi's brilliance.
I'm not saying I didn't enjoy it, but play-acting is pretty odious.

If bookings could be given in retrospect for diving etc you'd see play-acting disappear.
Was an ugly game apart from Messi's second goal, but I have to say that I find Mourinho one of the most entertaining managers around.
Echo Ben's comments. Sport in general lacks characters these days and is worse off for it. Mourinho is a welcome change.
Admittedly I'm a Liverpool fan, but look at Dalglish for how to be interesting and not a c**t. Mouriniho is utterly detestable - the game has enough problems with idiots already, I really don't see why anyone should be expected to applaud the worst of the lot?
Dalglish?
interesting??
hmm
watching an interview with King Kenny is like watching paint dry!

With Ben on this.
The Premier League is worse off without the special one. That doesn't mean he isn't an arse sometimes, but even when he's being an arse you suspect he knows he's being an arse. I wish I had that skill.

I used to think he was boring
He's just very guarded
He's definitely got a twinkle in his eye & he does come out with some funny lines
"Piss off" at Wenger was my recent favourite
Another 'Pro-Mourinho' vote here.
I've got a feeling he'll be back in England next season. But which club? He wants to be the next Man Utd manager and, considering that Fergie will definitely have a say in who is picked, Jose must be the favourite. Him or Moyes.
So, Mourinho can't manage Man City or Liverpool if he wants the Utd job.

But you have Badge. You're a total arse!
I agree too. Can't wait to see Barcelona try the same tactics in the final and people like Vidic, Scholes and Fletcher getting sent off.
So pleased about Sunderland. Couldn't happen to a more loyal manager.
West Ham.....going down. Couldn't happen to a nicer club.
They think they are a 'massive club' with a great history. The truth is they are a medium-sized club who only get as much coverage as they do because half of the national football hacks are West Ham fans.
Oh, and they 'won' the World Cup for us, remember. :-/
Ya we hammered them 3-0 the other week
cockney wankerrrrrrs!
Looks as though Bristol Rovers will be going down.
