Title: Chelseas Jose Mourinho is Always One Ste
Please dont call me arrogant, but Im European champion and I think Im a special one.Jose Mourinho, 2004In football, for a promising youngster to be labelled Special by a well-established veteran is pre sure enough. Suddenly, from being in the periphery of everyones vision, he starts getting noticed Zach Thomas Jersey . On the other hand, when one refers to himself as Special, the pre sure that follows knows no limits; the pre sure to justify the brazen arrogance, the pre sure to justify the tag in itself and the pre sure to prove the four and twenty million gloaters and doubters wrong.In Jose Mourinhos case, above all that, it was the pre sure to manage the club headed by one of the most demanding owners in the world  Roman Abramovic. He was called in John Jenkins Jersey  to replace Claudio Ranieri at the helm of Chelsea Football Club in the summer of 2004. In Ranieri, the Chelsea fans had a manager they loved, adored and respected. But due to lack of any concrete succe s, they saw the Italian shown the door and replaced by a Portuguese with a growing reputation in world football. Mourinho had just masterminded an unlikely Champions League triumph for his previous side Porto, but managing Chelsea was a different ball-game altogether.  Emmanuel Ogbah Jersey By referring to himself as The Special One in his first pre s conference, he made his forthcoming task as hard as can be. The rest though, as they say, is history.Six trophies in three seasons made him Chelseas most succe sful manager ever, before he departed for Italy to take charge at Inter Milan. A league succe s in his first season, followed by The Treble in his second established him as the top man in Europe. Real Madrid came calling next and even though he only managed three trophies in as many Austin Jackson Jersey  seasons with the club, he steered the ship in the right direction, reaching the last four of the Champions League every year. Now hes back at Stamford Bridge, bidding to script some more history at the club he calls home.Theres this thing with Jose. There always has been. Behind the outspoken and cocky exterior lies a calm, collected and commanding interior. Hes always been one step ahead of his counterparts at whatever he does. His tactics may at times seem absolutely baffling at first viewing, but in the end, it all falls together like the most wonderful jigsaw.Lets take the recent Super Cup game against Bayern Munich, for  Albert Wilson Jersey instance. Juan Mata was deemed to be a sure-starter, as was Romelu Lukaku. Jose dropped Mata once again and went with Fernando Torres up front, bewildering and angering several Blues fans in the proce s. But the way in which the game panned out showed how Jose had got his tactics spot on and how Matas inability to track back would have drastically affected the game. Torres too had a great outing, scoring a brilliant opener and going on to make his presence felt at every given opportunity. Even with ten men, Chelsea would Solomon Kindley Jersey  have won the Super Cup were it not for Javi Martinezs equaliser with the last kick of the game.Now, Jose has stirred up further debates by loaning out Lukaku, regarded by some as probably Chelseas best striker at the moment. But if Mourinho is to be believed, Torres is showing great signs of improvement and is a big part of his plans. The signing of Samuel Etoo, one of the most accomplished strikers in modern football, pushed Lukaku further back in the pecking order. With Chelsea opting to play only one striker, game time for Lukaku was sure to be extremely limited were he to  Adam Butler Jersey stay at the Bridge. Playing on a regular basis is imperative for the 20 year-old Belgian to develop further and so, having Demba Ba as third-choice rather than Lukaku was deemed to be the best option.The number of tactical decisions taken by Jose, which seem questionable initially, is countle s. First-half substitutions, triple substitutions at half-time, dropping key players in key games  you name it, hes done it. And the despite the stick he has received from several pundits, his records speaks for itself. He knows how to win football matches and land silverware on a regular basis, and at Jaylen Waddle T Shirts  the end of the day, thats all that counts anyway.
