I could not believe that during a press conference prior to the Barca-Chelsea tie televised on Sky Sports, Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho accused former Chelsea striker Eidur Gudjohnson of buying in to Barca's "strategy" of diving in the box. Of all the managers of all the clubs on the face of the planet, the manager of the club that has Didier Drogba on its roster has the stones to accuse another footballer of diving? If there was ever a poster child for diving in the box, it's Didier Drogba. I would have to believe that politicians would be impressed with the magnitude of the hypocrisy in Mourinho's accusation.

"If I wanted to have an easy job...I would have stayed at Porto - beautiful blue chair, the Uefa Champions League trophy, God, and after God, me." - Mourinho

Enough said.

If they had a vomit smiley this is about the time I would put about 5 here.

And also, Drogba is one of Mourinho's favorite players. "One I would go to war with", he says ... which is an obvious reference to his ability to cheat ("do everything possible to win").
One particularily amusing moment come when Mourinho complained about Deco diving. Which becomes particularily ironic when considering his comment about 'Gudjohnsen was at Chelsea for years, and just now he learns to dive'.

Mourinho's a good manager, but he has to learn to shut up from time to time. If not, he'll become a laughing stock like a couple of other managers in Argentina (Passarella included :()

I already don't take him seriously. He reminds me of a very short friend of mine who was always looking to get in to a fight with someone. ;)

Mourinho does tend to get a bit off board sometimes. Guddy wasn't the person with whom he shared the best relationship though
If Terry or Lampard were to go to Barca, would Mourinho say the same
Won't bet against it ;)

Yeah, the guy seriously needs to learn when to shut up, since he doesn't exactly say the most sensible of stuff.
