Pep tried to provoke Mourinho, ‘The Special One’ answered in his style

In his style, Jose Mourinho responded to recent comments by Pep Guardiola about the number of premier league titles won.

Guardiola emphasized that he won six titles while Mourinho Three, which tried to highlight his success. However, Mourinho implied in his response that his trophies were conquered “fair and clean”.

Mourinho stated:

“Guardiola said he won 6 titles while I won 3. However, I won them honestly and purely. If I lose, I would congratulate the rival the better than I am. I do not want to win while I have 150 legal cases.”

This comment can be interpreted as a reference to legal controversy accompanied by Manchester City, including investigations on possible violations of financial fair play, which is currently a hot topic in the world of football. Mourinho once again showed that he did not overcome sharp and direct statements to his rivals, especially to Guardiola, with which he has a long and complex coaching history.
