The Special One finished Los Blancos’ barren trophy run with their 32nd La Liga triumph in style, breaking numerous records on their way to etching themselves in laurels of Spanish footballing history.
Jose Mourinho took out time to reflect on his impressive La Liga triumph in the 2011/12 Spanish top flight domestic football, claiming that the feats of his team will remain in the history books for some time as they will be difficult to beat.
The Portuguese tactician is currently in the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/United-States-c3034 and shared his opinions on the coming 2012/13 Primera Division campaign after beating Italian giants, AC Milan, comprehensively by a margin of 5-1.
Mourinho remarked that Real Madrid’s record breaking feats of 100 points from their 38 La Liga matches, 121 goals, 32 wins and an impressive accolade of victories against every opponent puts them in a league of their own.
“First of all I do not think that the champion will reach 100 points again," Mourinho commented in response to questions posed by reporters in the post-game press conference after their demolishing of AC Milan in the pre-season friendly in North http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/America-c38390.
"I don't think the champion will score 120 goals. I think these are numbers that will stay in history for a long time."
With less than two weeks remaining before the start of the new season, Mourinho voiced his belief that Real Madrid and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 will contend for bragging rights in the Iberian Peninsula.
The former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567 Milan manager added that the league will be more closely contested than the previous season as their rivals will increase their efforts to regain their lost title.
"Everybody knows it will be a close fight between, in my opinion, the two best teams in the world," the 49-year-old tactician said.
"Because in the previous season we had so many points and Barcelona had [almost as many], people probably think the league is not so strong."
In a repeat of last season, the two Spanish giants will take on the challenge of each other in the Spanish Super Cup. Mourinho and Tito Vilanova will direct from the dugout after having their suspension sentences lifted by RFEF president, Jose Maria Angel Villar.
