"You have for example the case of Manchester City.In the first season, Guardiola was not a champion, it was really difficult," said Mourinho. "People [were] waiting to win Manchester City. They already came from winning times. They were champions with [Roberto] Mancini. They were champions with [Manuel] Pellegrini. Some players have already been champions twice – [Sergio] Aguero, [Vincent] Kompany, a lot of them.
"And in the first to the second season, Pep made good decisions, but big decisions were taken in. I give you as an example, he did not want [Pablo] Zabaleta, did not want [Bacary] Sagna – two right-back. He did not want [Aleksandar] Kolarov. He did not want [Gael] Clichy During the same summer, he sold four backs, [and] he had four defenders. He had [Kyle] Walker, Danilo, [Benjamin] Mendy and … I do not remember, [Oleksandr] Zinchenko or [Fabian] Delph or something like that. He was born.
"You see today in Liverpool, and I thought how many of those players were in Liverpool before Jurgen [Klopp] arrival? No Alisson, no [Virgil] van Dijk, no [Andrew] Robertson, no [Mohamed] Salah nor [Roberto] Firmino, no [Sadio] Mane, no Fabinho. [Georginio] Wijnaldum, I do not think he's played today [in a 4-3 win over Crystal Palace], but not Wijnauldum, not [Naby] Keita. It's an in-depth job.
"So, when, the other day, I was talking about leadership in relation to the structure of the club, it was not just leadership, that was all – these are even football ideas. So, if you are a coach, you have the opportunity to choose the player you want to follow your idea of football, or to follow the idea that you think the best to win a competition, it's one thing. is if you are not able to do it. "
The former boss of Porto and Real Madrid used his debut at Chelsea as an example when he was given permission to choose his team.
The Portuguese took over at Stamford Bridge before the 2004-05 season, just after Arsenal won an undefeated Premier League title.
In his first year in office, Chelsea of Mourinho, led by summer rookies Ricardo Carvalho and Didier Drogba, won the club's first league title by 12 points, losing once while conceding a 15-goal competition record. in 38 matches. the next season.
Jose Mourinho has often stated that his transfer requests were not supported at Manchester United.
"I [went] in Chelsea and when I arrived in England, it was the season when Arsenal was crowned champion "Invincible". When I arrived in 2004-2005, Arsenal was "The Invincibles". [Arsenal] Was a team only with bad players, "said Mourinho with a smile. Thierry Henry, Robert Pires, Patrick Dennis Bergkamp [Viera], Sol Campbell. Only bad players. And we're going a little bit like the underdogs, but it was a moment when Chelsea was burning inside of this incredible desire to [club owner] Mr. [Roman] Abramovic after buying the club and having already [experienced] some good things, you know, finish second, third, reach the semi-finals of the Champions League with [former manager] Mr. [Claudio] Ranieri.
"Chelsea was burning and [there] was a great desire to win [the Premier League]. And as I like to say about Liverpool this season. We say when you go … directly to the target. Liverpool needs a guard – Alisson, bang! Liverpool went exactly where they had to go. And U.S [Chelsea] were fantastic on the market. Mr. Abramovic was very fond of football and the club. Peter Kenyon was an extraordinary CEO with whom to work. Unbelievable. I came with clear ideas and we followed everything.
"When I said to play with John Terry, I want Ricardo Carvalho, a lot of people [asked] "Who is Ricardo Carvalho? [we got] Ricardo Carvalho. We followed, we went straight to the target. We needed an attacker. Many strikers were in Europe – come to Chelsea, do not come to Chelsea – [we got] Drogba from Marseille, African, nobody knows Drogba. We went directly to the target.
"Before, just before, Peter Kenyon, Chelsea's structure [was] works really well – Petr Cech, Arjen Robben Claude Makelele [were brought in] – we [made] a fantastic team and in two years we have just killed the Premier League in such a simple way. And I remember Sir Alex's words [Ferguson] saying that we place the level so high, so high, so high, that it is said: "If I want to win the Premier League again, I have to go always higher. a lot of noise in the Premier League and it was a fantastic time.
