Mourinho Act Is Wearing Thin

I have a lot of time for Jose Mourinho. He's achieved impossible tasks (who else could win the Champions League with Porto?) and has given the English Premiership a much needed shake up. But, just like Gary Neville (see below) he should start taking responsibility for his actions.Following Chelsea's controversial clash with Barcelona last year his comments led to referee Anders Frisk's early retirement. This year the teams were drawn against each other again and Mourinho has tried the same trick. His comments following Asier Del Horno's (deserved) sending off have led to referee Terje Hauge receiving death threats on a Chelsea fans message board.
I understand that Mourinho will do everything within his power to gain an advantage for his team, and in last years game againts Barcelona it seemed to pay off. But outbursts like this are surely subject to the law of diminishing returns. Like the boy who cried wolf, the more often he does it, the less convincing it is.Permalink: Mourinho Act Is Wearing Thin
