The Football Ramble’s Guide To… José Mourinho and Pep Guardiola: Part 2!

Today, we turn the Ramble spotlight onto the master puppeteer himself: José Mourinho.

From the moment he sprinted into our footballing lives at Old Trafford with his coat billowing behind him, to his almighty fall from grace at the Lowry Hotel in Manchester, we relive all his charm, flaws, and that absolutely unrelenting chip on his shoulder.

We explain why Real Madrid ruined his career and we settle it once and for all: who has had the most successful managerial career, Guardiola or Mourinho?
