I saw the game yesterday and as much as I like to defend Mourinho as a former Chelsea man I thought what he did last night was disgraceful and I´d expect better behaviour from a five year old.

Im not condoning what Mourinho did
But what Pique said was hypocritical
Barca's diving is childish
Like when Buquets dived in the cl to get Thiago Motta sent off

he does love to get involved,

barcelone are a fantastic team but their cheating players dont help matters,

marcelo's tackle was mad but it didnt warrant the reaction, at the same time jose didnt have to pluck the guys eye out,

we havent seen the last of this

Guardiola is schooling him over and over.
He knows what he's doing.
He wants out!

Fernando I was about to create the same article


Regarding Mourinho, he can do whatever he likes but I don't want him to bring Chelsea name in the middle whenever he accuses Barca

God .... I miss the good old days .... when Jose was always getting into trouble and referees/pundits/journos/FA/EUFA/Opponents,etc. were all united against us .......ahhhhhh .....

Maybe not .......

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

I´m not condoning Pique or Barca either but at least Pique´s words were just that - words.

What Mourinho did was ridiculous and I can honestly say I´ve never seen a manager do anything like that before.

Certainly not in professional football.

Football Fanatic

I liked it when after he beat barca with inter, he said
"This is for my boys at Chelsea"
It was a nice gesture after the disgrace of the previous year

Here is a clip of Mourinho sticking his finger in Vilanova´s eye:

If sticking your finger in someone´s eye wasn´t bad enough watch Mourinho´s chilidsh reaction afterwards.

I´ve really lost my respect for Mourinho after last night.

Great manager no doubt. But unfortunately utter pratt as well.

Fernando Torres aka el nino del Chelsea (U10019)

Barcelonas behaviour is no worse than that of any of Mourinhos sides.

For him to speak out against diving and playacting is akin to one of the Krays coming out and speaking about clamping down on gang culture.

Last year after losing to Barca he said that they didn't deserve year before when Chelsea went out on away goals.

I know it was a very bad referee who cost us the match but our players didn't vent out their frustration on Barca.
After that game JT went into the away dressing room and wish them luck in the final. They also sang JT's name in th dressing room.
As a player/ manager one should learn to accept defeats

Spanish football is like panto

football fanatic

of course, the barca players weren't to blame for that disgrace.
My point was that Mourinho isn't as bad as people say, he could have left chelsea on bad terms but he still remembers us and what he said shows that he still cares about the club.

What Mourinho did was definitely childish and he should know better
I just thought that the way Pique thinks Barca are naive and pure is very hypocritical

It's my first comment, how have I come crawling back?

What Mourinho did was disgraceful and very dangerous not just childish.

I´d like to defend Mourinho but in this instant he´s crossed the line by a significant distance.

Mourinho realsied that the game was lost after Messi scored the winner so he decided to stick his finger in someone´s eye.

Joey Barton would be proud.

Any Chelsea fan trying to defend the behavior of Mourinho is an imbecile. Mourinho's Porto team were far from angels when it comes to theatrics. Drogba and Robben were masters in the art of flopping too under Mourinho .

I expect him to be punished severely for his cowardly act with a long, long ban.

I agree with the poster who says he wants out. He will be punished, no doubt complain whinge ect, then look to return to the premiership at the end of the season. Probably at City if Mancini doesn't come close to winning the league this year, or even Chelsea if your rookie manager falls flat.

TBF this is getting blown a bit out of porportion. Managers like Sam Allardyce and Tony Pulis do far more to damage the game than Mourinho does. And I have no particular allegiance to him whatsoever.

Have you even read my comment
I said that what Mourinho did was stupid
I'm not condoning mourinho's actions, they were disgraceful and he should know better
HOWEVER
Pique is wrong in thinking that Mourinho is the only thing wrong with Spanish football

----------------------------------------------------------------------

I´ve never seen Pulis or Allardyce go up to someone and poke him in the eye for no good reason apart from the fact that they just lost the game.

It´s takes bad loser to a new level and makes Wenger look good.

I'm telling you he wants out.
He wants them to throw the book at him so he can say he had to leave.

Damaging the game doesn't start and stop at poking someone in the eye. It also involves what your players do on the pitch and how you play the game.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

To be honest who cares what Pique said or didn´t say.

It pales in significance compared to Mourinho walking up to someone from behind and then poking them in the eye.

What on earth was Jose thinking ??!!

I agree completely about Mourinho
But surely Pique needs to look at his own team's actions before criticising others
