Jose Mourinho mightn’t be everyone’s cup of tea but you’d think that most players who’ve played under the Portuguese would rank him highly enough to put him among their top three.
Well not contrary Sergio Ramos. The Spaniard has left a Mourinho-shaped hole on the list of his three favourite bosses during an interview with FIFA.com.
Ramos played under Mourinho for three years at Real Madrid, winning La Liga and the Copa del Rey in the process, but didn’t find enough love to include him in his top three.
Rather, the goalscoring centre-back has opted for current Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti, Luis Aragones who gave Ramos his start in the Spanish national team and Joaquin Caparros who promoted the defender to the Sevilla first team back in 2004.
He said: “There’s Luis Aragones, then you have Joaquin Caparros, who really believed in me when I was a nobody. I have had some fantastic coaches and Ancelotti’s definitely in the top three.”
It’s pretty clear that Mourinho didn’t leave too pleasant a taste in the mouths of most at the Bernabeu when he left Real Madrid in 2013 but you’d expect a token shout-out when naming the best you’ve been managed by.
