Jose Mourinho has opened many talents for football, but have been football players in the Portuguese career, which he obviously underestimated. The Squawka edition collected in top-8 ranking, which proved that Jose could make a mistake.
Kevin de Bruyne
Worked with Mourinho in Chelsea
Clubs after this: Genk (lease), Werder (lease), Wolfsburg, Manchester City
The Belgian is now considered one of the best players in the Submarine and a contender for the Golden Ball. However, at one time in Chelsea, Mourinho forced Kevin suffer enough, inventing new positions on the field with the midfielder. Jose did not see the Belgian talent, so Chelsea first gave the player a lease, and then he lost at all for 18 million pounds.
De Bruyne remembers the period of work with Mourinho as one of the most difficult stages of his career. Kevin often tells in an interview how Jose ignored him at workouts and refused to explain his not always logical decisions
Mohamed Salah
Worked with Mourinho in Chelsea
Clubs after this: Fiorentina (lease), Roma, Liverpool
Salah discovered himself for European football in Basel, after which Chelsea did not think much and gave away 11 million pounds for a talented Egyptian. Then there was an incomprehensible period. Mourinho was looking for Mohamed the best place on the field, but Salah was not able to adapt to the Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea took the chance a few years later and sold the midfielder to Rome. And then Liverpool, a fantastic season, records, dreams of the Golden Ball, tears in Kiev. Who among the Chelsea fans would not want to see this ball magician in his team right now ...
Mourinho says that Chelsea's management wanted to sell Salah, not him. However, no matter what the difference is.
David Luis
Worked with Mourinho in Chelsea
Clubs after this: PSG, Chelsea
The Brazilian was a fan of Chelsea fans and guys. He was considered irreplaceable in the team, but Jose does not recognize the authorities. Mourinho was irritated by David Luis's lack of discipline, so the Portuguese pointed to the defender at the door.
Then Centerbeck returned to Chelsea and became one of the main authors of the championship season "Blue" with Antonio Conte. David Luis has shown to everyone that he is really a top player, and his new conflict with Chelsea's current trainer is a completely different story.
Romelu Lukaku
Worked with Mourinho in Chelsea
Clubs after this: West Bromwich (lease), Everton, Manchester United
Special case. Last summer, Mourinho admitted that he was seriously mistaken in Lukaku. Once Jose drove a Belgian from Chelsea, but then he himself invited him to his Manchester United.
Romelu always looked like an ideal strike for England. Why Mourinho has sent to nowhere a wonderful job of Scouts Chelsea, it remains to be guessed.
Aryen Robben
Worked with Mourinho in Chelsea
Clubs after this: Real Madrid, Bayern
In Chelsea, the Dutchman looked good, but Jose's favorite has never been. Mourinho has always had some complaints about Robben. The Portuguese simply did not see Arjen's technical one of the best vingers of his generation.
Perhaps Robben, who always wanted a little more freedom than the other players in the team, simply did not guess with the championship and coach.
Leonardo Bonucci
Worked with Mourinho in Inter
Clubs after that: Genoa, Bari, Juventus, Milan
The only player in the ranking that worked with Mourinho is not Chelsea. One of Italy's best defenders did not impress Jose at the start of his career. At first, the Portuguese expert sent Bonucci for rent, and then allowed Inter to sell Leonardo.
After joining Juventus, Bonucci formed the legendary Air Force in the center of the defense of the Turin club and gained a reputation as one of the best centerboks in the history of the Champions League.
Tiago Mendez
Worked with Mourinho in Chelsea
Clubs after this: Lyon, Juventus, Atlético
After one season in Chelsea, Tiago Mendez was sold to Lyon. On his transfer, "blue" lost 5 million euros. Later, Mourinho called the "big mistake" of selling the player.
The Portuguese successfully played in Lyon and Atletico. The midfielder did not succeed only in Juventus.
Philippe Luis
Worked with Mourinho in Chelsea
Club after this: Atlético
The Brazilian had to solve the problem on the left flank of the "blue" after Ashley Cole left. Failed. The Brazilian, who, incidentally, travels to the World Cup 2018, did not fully adapt to the requirements of Mourinho and held at Stamford Bridge just a year.
Many great players. However, many of them wanted to leave and all blame cannot be put on Mourinho imo. Some of them also did not perform as well as they should have, like Luis. Also at Chelsea the manager have littlte to no control over transfers.
I have a feeling if Man Utd were to sell Martial, he would be on these lists in a few years...
