Same Old Dog, Same Old Tricks-Ryan Pikna
What topics are off limits to Jose Mourinho? This man has an opinion even when he claims to have no opinion. Although the days of Special One proclamations have come and gone he continues to be the only manager that says what he wants when he wants. If you want my little opinion, my little opinion is he needs to shut it every once and awhile.
