Mourinho might be living his best life at the moment. He has plenty of job security. Lives in beautiful Rome. Has a solid squad capable of winning the scudetto. Making music video appearances.

Yea as much as England was his home for what feels like forever, think he's a lot more at ease/peace in Rome.

Away from the constant microscope and unrelenting pressure of the Prem, in a league where he's revered more than anyone else and in a world class city.

Even though they can't traditionally compete with the big 3 financially, Roma have done a good job of finding good deals where they can and really letting him build his squad to his exact liking. He's also being afforded patience to really grow his project there.

He's rewarded them with their first piece of silverware in generations and they've got a squad capable of really challenging this season especially with how wide open the Scudetto race is shaping up to be.

He's in a really good place professionally and personally it feels like.

Biggie

I’m just going to ignore that last part

Mou's lowkey the people's champ tbh , he's transcended beyond just footy more than any other coach has.

No matter how you feel about him, you'll deadass find folks on every continent who might not even give 2 ****s about football but know of him

He's also got a legitimate cult following that can rival the biggest players fanbases.

Got more off pitch clout than any other manager I can think of

They’re lighting Pep up so much in the comments

Who's the next Portugal captain after Cristiano? Mans focused on stat padding instead of letting the youth take over.

Captain? IDK.

We need Ronaldo. We don’t have a Striker.

Just put Leão on the LW to cut in. All I ask is that he starts!

Beautiful pic btw.

The Old and the New.

He won a CL with Porto…

Turned Chelsea into a power house….

Then 6 years later he won a CL title with Inter who hadn’t won one in 40 years….

Also the first treble winner in Italian Football ever….

Then he got RM out of the mud during Barça’s dominance….

José’s during his prime was RIDICULOUS.

The other one can’t win a UCL without Messi

Not just Messi.

With a billion dollar payroll at City for 7 years he couldn’t win.

He’s a master of panic in the CL.

If City lose the CL again WITH Haaland this year…..

Time to fire Pep.

In terms of UK rappers Skepta's still that guy for me but Stormzy definitely makes the biggest splashes/waves out of all of them whenever he drops. He's a beast though.

Guys like Dave, J Hus, AJ Tracey, Tion Wayne and Kano are dope too.

Kano was one of the first UK artist that I really got into. Had “Reload” on repeat the other day. Seeing him grow and venture into different lanes like acting over the years has been dope

Japan pressing tf out of USMNT

that was a goal

I’d watch that. The banter could be legendary

Japan putting in work. USMNT's Midfield and CB were ***. GGG deserves this for leaving out Ream (who's a captain for Fulham) & Brooks

Why is berhalter referred to as ggg?

I wish he was just a more likable person. I feel like a lot of people forgot about his scumbag moves and saltiness over the past 15-20 years because he's been relatively more subdued lately. For example that whole Eva Carneiro fiasco was completely uncalled for and childish.

Won't lie though, El Clasicos were at their peak in terms of drama/entertainment when he was in charge
