Top Ten Jose Mourinho `s Rants by iykedare(m): 11:13am On Oct 07, 2009
10) On Sir Alex Ferguson (February 2004)
After running the length of the field to celebrate Porto's late winner against Manchester United in the Champions League.
"I understand why [Ferguson] is a bit emotional. He has some top players in the world and they should be doing a lot better than that. You would be sad if your team gets as clearly dominated by opponents who have been built on 10% of the budget."

9) On Champions League defeat to Liverpool (March 2005)
"It was a goal from the moon. The linesman scored the goal. The best team lost. After they scored only one team played, the other one just defended for the whole game."

cool On Arsene Wenger (October 2005)
"I think he is one of these people who is a Viewer. He likes to watch other people. There are some guys who, when they are at home, have a big telescope to see what happens in other families. He speaks, speaks, speaks about Chelsea. They need to work and try to improve. I don't know if he wants my job, I don't know. He loves Chelsea."

7) On Arsenal 5-4 Tottenham (November 2004)
"That was not a football score, it was a hockey score, in training I often play matches of three against three and when the score reaches 5-4 I send the players back to the dressing room, because they are not defending properly."

6) On Rafa Benitez and Chelsea's FA Cup semi-final defeat to Liverpool (April 2006)
"Did the best team win? I don't think so. In the Premiership Liverpool have no chance. In the Premiership the distance between the teams is 45 points over two seasons. Liverpool are not a big team. To have not won the league for almost 15 years is not good enough."

5) On a 57-year-old Claudio Ranieri (August 2008)
"I am very demanding of myself and I have to win to be sure of things. This is why I have won so many trophies in my career. Ranieri on the other hand has the mentality of someone who doesn't need to win. He is almost 70 years old. He has won a Supercup and another small trophy and he is too old to change his mentality. He's old and he hasn't won anything."

4) Mourinho on Catania and sporting director Pietro Lo Monaco (September 2008)
"We could have won that game 5-1 easily. In fact, I could have played in goal for Inter and we still would have won."

3) On Frank Rijkaard (February 2005)
"My history as a manager cannot be compared with Frank Rijkaard’s history. He has zero trophies and I have a lot of them."

2) Mourinho on Catania and sporting director Pietro Lo Monaco (September 2008)
"Lo Monaco? I don’t know him. I know of Tibetan monks [Monaco means 'monk' in Italian], I know Bayern Munich [Bayern Monaco in Italian], I know the Monaco Grand Prix, I don’t know any others. If this guy wants to earn free publicity by talking about me, he'd better pay me. Adidas feature me in their adverts, but they pay me a lot of money to do that. I don't get paid to help this Lo Monaco get in the papers."

1) Mourinho on Mourinho (June 2004)
We have top players and, sorry if I'm arrogant, we have a top manager. I'm not a defender of old or new football managers. I believe in good ones and bad ones, those that achieve success and those that don't. Please don't call me arrogant, but I'm European champion and I think I'm a special one."
