The “Special One” Jose Mourinho has launched yet another attack on the Italian media, in which he has said that: “I’m not happy in Italian football, because I don’t like it and they don’t like me.” He went on to clarify that he still enjoys his time managing Inter, but his relationship with the journalists and the Italian FA has went beyond sour.
In recent months, the former Chelsea manager has been hit by numerous fines and suspensions in Italy, mostly because he keeps on complaining about referee decisions, and the way his players are treated. He even got fined for making a handcuffed gesture, signifying how he felt he was being shackled from giving his opinion after the matches. Some referees have even threatened to boycott games unless Mourinho was given the proper punishment, which shows just how far the situation has escalated.
Mourinho was the first to admit that he doesn’t like where all this controversy has ended up, and now it would be very interesting to see if he stays on as Inter manager after the end of the season. Despite his clashes with the media, he is still managing the club very well. Inter are on top of Serie A, and recently knocked out Chelsea in the last 16 of the Champions League. Could we see a repeat of Mourinho’s last season at Porto, where he won them the European crown and then left immediately for another club? We’ll have to wait and see.
