Mourinho raps Liverpool's Gerrard: Wrong to snub Chelsea
tribalfootball.com - August 1, 2005

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has told Steven Gerrard he made a big mistake choosing Liverpool over the Blues.

He said: "Gerrard is a great player and we want an English core very much. But I think it is Gerrard's loss more than Chelsea's.

"Why? Because Chelsea have a good team with the conditions to improve and a club which will be one of the best in the world in a short period of time.

"So when he decides not to join this club, I think it will be a loss for him, for his career.

"He can say 'I was European champion at Liverpool'.

"But I can say to him in the next 10 years we will compare trophies at Chelsea and at Liverpool. And he will lose."

Dear me, he is certainly deluded. In ten years time he wants to compare trophies? why doesn't he ask for 50 years. idiot.

[Houllier=LFC]

His greatest achievement is to top the hate list of all local clubs, not forgetting Barcelona.

[Espionage]

WOW his arrogance never ceases to amaze.......

[bigmick]

It's certain that over the next 3 or 4 years Chelsea will win more trophies than anybody else. In the long-term, if Abrhamovic sticks around it's still pretty likely. What is equally certain is that the Chelsea squad will be littered with players who fail to fulfill their career potential having made the mistake of signing for money purposes.
Was Scott Parker wise to sign for Chelsea? He was on the fringe of the England team when he went there. Now, only the barcodes are prepared to take the huge gamble on his salary and fee, in the hope he can become the player he was and remember how to actually play the game. Was SWP right to go there, will he get a game? Sure these guys get huge salaries, like as not SWP will play in the last four games of the Prem. His every touch will be given an Ole` by the crowd and these four appearances will mean he will pick up a Premiership winners medal. Of his 10 appearances that season, he will probably remember the one away to Bolton best, the one where he scored twice in the 5-0 win.
At the end of the season is the World Cup. Any chance SWP had of being included in the starting X1 disappeared the minute he signed for Chelsea. Beckham was probably the happiest man around.
Trophies? if you want to win a s many as possible then Chelsea is your best bet. Glory, honour and immortality? Join a team where you will play regularly, where they aren't just a collection of everyone else's best players and do something special there. If your home-town club is capable of winning the biggest trophies in the land, then stick around and make yourself some history.

Mourinho is a moron. I wonder how many times he has taken the tour around Anfield to see the Champions League trophy that we have won not once not twice but 5 times. How quickly do people forget about the Liverpool dynasty. Jose in future do us all a favour and SHUT UP

[Ian Rush's Right foot]

Mourinho.... What a kunt!, i'm so glad we got benitez and not him!, i hope the russian pulls out they go bankrupt!

[66-1112520797]

The only reason that portugese pr@tt is saying this now ,is because he is struggling to sign Essein .
Maureen is obviously cut about this and it has put a dent in that C@nts ego.
Sorry Morry we still have the best Midfielder in the world.
YOU ARROGANT TW@T

[Roger Red Hat]

What a wazzack. "Hey Maureen, go take your face for a sh!t"

[Paul C]

If he considers a clubs history over 10 years then he's a sad man, our history spans over decades not A decade.

[kaz the kopite]

bankrupt and a knockdown price wholesale of players plus ground included as soon

as abrambovic gets bored of his toy!

poor chelski fans!  nottt!

[El Nino_#9]

what a tw@t! he is so arrogant its unbelievable. i hope that russian pulls out as well! all of our trophies are based on a great hardworking team and the best fans in the world, whereas chelski's ONE league cup and ONE premierleague trophy is based on money alone!
TALK TO THE HAND MOURINHO! 

[kazza]

He is like a little boy throwing a fit because a certain person will not play with him. Quite comical really.

It does show his unprofessional attitude which will only serve to fire up a great player (who was not fired up the last five times both teams played), probably something a smart coach should not do.

Bottom line is he seems to forget that his role is only so important and there are twenty two players on the field who have far more input, one of them being Gerrard. "Special One" my @ss.

I am so happy we have a manager with dignity.

[muttleyp]

He does just need to learn to SHUT HIS MOUTH!!! He talks way too much and lacks serious class. You would think that someone who is managing "allegedly the biggest club" would have better things to do with his time than talk rubbish because he is upset that he got snubbed by Gerrard.
I can only hope that after 10 years someone will remind him of his comments when he sees that Liverpool have won more trophies than he has.

[stmichael]

Are you kidding me?

Surely the 'great one' has been enjoying one too many of Fergie's invitations to a quiet glass of red at the local MUFC-branded pubs (soon to be released as the latest merchandise by Mr Glazer)!

I cannot believe that he is convinced that the mighty blue Bolshevik revolution (Mk 2) will be winning more than Liverpool in the next decade. While, as a Liverpool fan, I can concede that Chelski were superb last season, I personally am not convinced that they will sweep the board this season.

They have a good core of players, a great coach and a blank check for a bankroll, yes. A tick in every box yet as we all know in football, money does not always buy success. I feel that the Blues are in need of a good thrashing or two (which may come this season) and it will be the catalyst for a sell-off of immense proportions.

Chelski can't sustain a squad with their current talent and keep them happy. ManYoo have tried this before (just ask Ole Gunner) and unless they are winning the league, it turns to sh!te. Just ask Parker, Morris, Kezman, Crespo, Babayaro and Bridge. All have had limited parts in the Chelski team and all have been frustrated with the style of management. Mourinho cannot manage his squad for another season the way he did last year and I feel that a few bad results will lead to a mass culling of talent.

It can't be long before that smile and swagger turns to a washed-out whimper of desperation, and I hope it comes courtesy of a 5-0 drubbing by Liverpool!

I don't think that Liverpool are necessarily the better side, but I feel that we are better grounded and have a team resolve that will serve them us well in the next couple of seasons. Rafa the Gaffa has transformed a bunch of misfit players into a solid unit at Liverpool and I feel he has bought well to the needs of the team.

Liverpool have signed Gerrard this summer to a big contract and so now has a big responsibility to his team and the fans. However, if he went to Chelski, he would find himself drifting through the mist of fame and success that Mourinho artificially creates. There is no real success to be had at Chelsea and what better place to prove 'the great one' wrong than by winning a few bits and pieces this season while Chelski flounder. This should be a good season for the Reds and with Gerrard at the helm, the Reds could march on this season!

Chelski and their bosses should take a good hard look at themselves, their arrogance will be their undoing and as the old adage goes, "the bigger they are, the harder they fall". I don't think there will be anyone to protect Mourinho when he does fall and I'm sure that the new blue army of fans will as quickly dissipate as if his very words were teargas to the nose and eyes!

Get your hands off it Mourinho! You have the league, we have Europe, and we didn't have to buy it!
