From: Alkamista on 19 May 2010 13:38 van Gaal on mentoring Mourinho at Barca: "Jose was very modest back then. It was nice watching his development, to see that he has become such a personality. I knew he would help me because he was so passionate. He quickly noticed that I brought him forward. I think I educated him a little. I could immediately see he had an understanding of the game." "He trains to win. I train to play beautiful football and win. My way is more difficult."

Hey, I like the way that Van Gaal dude is squashing the pup's face in his own caca. The mix of irony and condescendence is brilliant. ;)

Like true warriors of sport parading behind the splendid banner of Coubertin, they'll shower each other with praises ;)

The mix of irony and condescendence is brilliant. ;) My favorite Mourinho quote of 2010 (paraphrasing): "For my players, they have never been there (UCL final), so it is dream. For me, I have been there, it is not dream." |
