Lazy as a rug on Valium
I agree it's an overused phrase but I do admit to liking the guy.
It is good to see the premiership duopoly interrupted by somebody new and to give him his dues I think Mourinho doesn't always believe his own hype, he just loves playing the game.
Nobody can deny that he's instilled a wonderful team spirit at Chelsea and we as Albion fans cannot underestimate the importance of that.
Why shouldn't he be arrogant if he is winning trophies and achieving the success he and the fans crave?
I think Ferguson is arrogant but the difference is he isn't likeable whereas Mourinho come across in a far warmer light.
I liked the comment he made after Ferguson had celebrated his 1000th game or whatever it was and Mourinho was asked whether he believed he would see 1,000 games at Chelsea. He laughed and commented that he'd be putting his feet up in his retirement home enjoying a fine wine or two by then and had no desire to stay on to such an age!
One in the eye for that ringpiece Ferguson, who lets not forget, has only one trophy left to play for this season. I have to admit that after our own status in the Championship is secure the results I'm most looking out for are those in the FA cup as Arsenal, Spurs or Newcastle winning it over Man U would just make my day.
Arsenal - Spurs final anyone?
