AC Milan - Milanfan.com _ News Dump _ Max - Jose is pathetic and insecure.
Posted by: Danny May 25 2011, 06:44 PM
Allegri, who has just led Milan to their first Serie A title in seven years, came up against Mourinho in the group stages of this season's Champions League - with Real beating the Rossoneri at home and drawing at the San Siro.
And when quizzed on his rival coaches on television show Le Iene, Allegri was quick to stick the boot into the Portuguese boss, who won two Scudetti, the Coppa Italia and the Champions League with Milan's city rivals Inter.
"Every now and then he is pathetic," Allegri said, when asked about Mourinho. "He continuously repeats the same things and it becomes banal. I think he is very talented but his arrogance hides insecurity."
Mourinho is a figure who undoubtedly polarises opinion, no more so than after his recent outburst against Barcelona in the aftermath of Real's Champions League semi-final first-leg defeat to the Catalans.
He was given a five-match ban by UEFA for claiming that Barca received favourable treatment but was widely criticised for his claims, with former Real boss Guus Hiddink insisting earlier this month that he should apologise for his actions.
Not seen this posted elsewhere.
imo Allegri should keep unprofessional comments like this to himself. Whether he is right or wrong is irrelevant - it's not a manager's place to slate another one like this.

This wasn't supposed to be serious. He did some comedy show and said all bunch of things about all the famous Italian coaches too (for example called Spalletti bald and so on).

Yeah it wasn't meant to be serious. Media taking things out of context shocker.

Last I checked Max didn't say "Mourinho is trophy-less". he said Mou repeats himself all the time (damn right) and hides his insecurity (damn right). also acknowledged Mou's talent. no need to post his achievements for us.

He does repeat stuff, but I don't think Mourinho is at all insecure. Nor does he have any reason to be.

He has a reason to be insecure, that's what makes him successful. I mean he makes himself out to be someone he necessarily is not (arrogant ****, always b1tching, always stirring controversy etc. etc.). and he gets emotional and cries when Sneijder says he was the best coach he'd ever had... these are not the same persons. that's insecurity. if he weren't, he'd be like someone like Lippi. a confident gentleman who doesn't need playacting.

Same old, same old.

In my first press conference, i swear i'm gonna give a tribute to this man. He has changed the game forever. Such an iconic figure in football.
IF I can have even a quarter of his success i've done myself good.

: 2000 - eternity.
It's not nice, Blue, to forget his greatest accomplishment.

Pretty much wraps-up the entire argument, puts Blue into pyjamas and ends the discussion. +1

By the way, I saw the interview two hours ago when it was broadcasted on Le Iene (Italia 1) and Allegri was really funny in it.

The only way a piece of random news could get this much attention on here is if it involves the words Mourinho or CR7 is the best in the world.

You think?? Try 'Paolo Maldini is overrated!' Would be like slitting your wrists in a pool full of sharks....and one overweight hairy flexi-sexual Greek blue whale 
Posted by: Milan Are Brilliant May 26 2011, 10:21 AM
Not even the media are that dumb.
Posted by: Jack Sparrow May 26 2011, 10:25 AM
I wouldn't put it past Harry Redknapp you know. Or one of those two blokes who do commentary for Sky sometimes. Colin something?? The think black dude....who jerks off perenially to Iniesta.
Posted by: Milan Are Brilliant May 26 2011, 10:29 AM
You are Kurt in disguise!
Colin? Don't know who you mean. They all do, but it gets worse with Messi, a million times worse, well Saturday will be fun...
Posted by: Jack Sparrow May 26 2011, 10:43 AM
Sorry. It was Carlton Palmer. Not Colin.

This isn't the first time ESPN has outright lied about a story.
Posted by: acid911 May 26 2011, 12:50 PM
Yeah, Carlton Palmer is the guy who is the guest in Ten Sports live pre-game shows. Weird guy all round, but some of his predictions in terms of score/results do come very much true. Also is a known Barca peep.

Posted by: acid911 May 26 2011, 12:58 PM
Oh okay.
Ten Sports is just in the Asia and Middle East region though. Joe Morrison is the host, while Carlton Palmer, and John Burridge (nicknamed Budgie) are the two usual guys who are in the studio with him. Countdown 2 Kickoff (C2K) is the program, can't wait for Saturday and their harping and hyping up Barca and United, and so on and so forth.
Posted by: acid911 May 26 2011, 01:00 PM
And those who don't know about Budge, he is as football journeyman as they come. Wikipedia says:
