Kincera hopes Mourinho sees his own problems and Guardiola can face setbacks

Mourinho bluntly stated that Manchester City's violations should be deducted points, and Manchester United should win the Premier League championship in the 2017-18 seasons. Although this happened several years ago, Mourinho's re-report of the old story this time is also implying that his "Waterloo" is due to external factors. If the Red Devils won the Barclays Cup that season, even if Mourinho encountered internal strife in the 18-19 season, the management would not fire him so quickly. As we all know, the Magic Birds' coaching career has shown a turning point in the Dream Theater. Chelsea's team reporter Kincera also admitted that Manchester United's career has hit Mourinho very hard and is also the starting point for him to be unsuccessful since then.

However, Kincera hopes that Mourinho will see his own problems. Of course, a major setback may defeat a famous coach, but Mourinho's long-term recruitment of others and never faces his own problems. This is the key reason why he cannot rise. If this famous Portuguese coach can correctly understand his tactics and personality problems, he can adjust his coaching pace and mentality. In addition, his coaching strength is still there, so it is not difficult to return to the peak. However, judging from Mourinho's subsequent coaching of Tottenham, Roma and Fenerbahce, he has been avoiding his own problems, which has led to his deeper and deeper in some small things, and the team he coaches is also prone to internal friction. In contrast, Guardiola also encountered setbacks last season, especially during the season interruption, Manchester City rarely fell into a situation where "need to compete for four". At the beginning, many people predicted that Guardiola's Blue Moon Legion's career had come to an end. The team needed fresh ideas, and it was better for both sides to get together and part. But Guardiola turned the situation in the later stage of the league, and the management renewed his contract with him for an important reason - Guardiola was able to face setbacks. In Kincera's view, at least Guardiola will not just look for other factors. Although this famous Catalan coach also likes to complain about the referee, he can face various problems in the team and mainly adjust it from himself. This is his spirit of facing setbacks.

When Manchester City failed unexpectedly in the Champions League knockout, Guardiola did not blame the loss on the away turf thickness or VAR controversy, but instead drew three shocking tactical loopholes on the whiteboard in the locker room. This almost cruel self-dissection is just like the famous saying when he coached Bayern: "I can always find the culprit in the mirror when losing. " This courage to face setbacks often forms a chain reaction. After being out of the League Cup in a surprise match, the media found that Guardiola was reviewing and recording alone at the training base late at night. The next day, the team received the revised set-piece defense manual. Assistant coach Arteta once revealed that the coach's tactical notebook has a "failure chapter" that records the system defects exposed by each major failure, and some of the pages are even soaked in coffee stains - that is the traces left in the study at 3 a.m.

Mourinho's coaching career seems to have fallen into a vicious circle: the more he avoids self-reflection, the more likely he is to consume his reputation in tactical rigidity and locker room contradictions. During the Tottenham Hotspur period, it was not accidental that his relationship with core players such as Ali broke down; after moving to Roma, despite winning the UEFA Champions League for a brief resurgence, the "Mu Three Years" curse that recurred in the league was fulfilled again - when the players began to produce antibodies to high-pressure management, and when the opponent had already figured out his anti-counter routine, those coaching flaws that had been covered up by honor were fully exposed. So, Kincera hopes Mourinho sees his own problems, rather than complaining that others cannot understand him, and the referees and the league always go against him.

The author believes that the management may easily have conflicts with him with a popular coach like Mourinho, but there is no need to go against him on the Football Association. After all, Mourinho's stay in the league can bring a lot of commercial value, so many times, this famous Portuguese coach has a bit of "persecution paranoia". Now that Mourinho is coaching Fenerbahce, he still continues the inertia of "external attribution". After losing, accusing the referee, complaining about the schedule, and questioning the opponent, these familiar scenes are constantly repeating. Sadly, when the wave of tactical innovation in the world football world swept by, when Guardiola used dynamic formations to rewrite football philosophy, and when young coaches like Alonso could use flexible management to activate the team, Mourinho's "Iron Fist Bible" is fading his magic.

He still has the ability to instantly ignite the team's blood, but what modern football needs more is continuous system construction and humanized communication. Perhaps Mourinho needs a real "bottom-bottom rebound" - not a low record, but a psychological rebirth. Like Sir Ferguson who actively transformed into technical flow in his later years, and like Ancelotti who constantly absorbed the thinking of the new generation of coaches, the real famous coaches are always evolving. If he can honestly face his stubborn 352 formation, and admit that excessive use of "psychological warfare" will backfire the team's cohesion, then with his tactical talents and champion DNA, it is entirely possible to open up the second curve of his coaching career. Otherwise, what awaits him is probably not the phoenix's nirvana, but gradually becoming an eliminated specimen in football evolution theory.
