The Real Madrid skipper spoke about how his relationship is with the Portuguese coach and explained how the manager’s anger is justified as it is mostly because of their poor performance on the pitch.
There are many who believe that the relationship between the Spanish players and the Portuguese mentor is not as good as it is with the Portuguese players in the Spanish capital-based outfit.
The Real Madrid captain, Iker Casillas, recently spoke about how his relationship with Jose Mourinho is and how the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 boss really helps the team to win games.
Last season, Jose Mourinho helped Real Madrid win the Spanish La Liga, even though a team like Barcelona was challenging them for the title.
La Blaugrana won the title three times in a row, until Jose Mourinho snatched it away from them last year, while Josep Guardiola could only win the FIFA Club World Cup and the Copa del Rey title.
While speaking about the Portuguese coach and how his relationship is with him, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Iker-Casillas-c16815 said:
“When he is angry it is rightly because we have not done well on the pitch, whilst as we are older, we say things to each other’s face.”
“Is he a nice person? Yeah, he is nice. Leaving aside him as a Coach and staying with the person, I would say he is nice.”
Real Madrid are currently picking up the pace in the Spanish La Liga and the UEFA Champions League as they the favourites to win the European competition.
In the domestic league, Los Blancos are 11 points behind their arch-rivals, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604, and five points behind their local-city rivals, Atletico Madrid.
This gap is going to take a lot of time to fill, and Los Blancos do have a lot of time to make a comeback in the league.
Being the current Spanish champions, Real Madrid have not really started the season on a high and are not really the favourites to retain their La Liga title anymore.
However, they are definitely the favourites to win the UEFA Champions League, a competition in which they have already qualified for the round of 16.
