Jose Mourinho was definitely drunk off the success of his Capital One Cup Victory today. I suspect he might have also been drunk off alcohol. His quotes after the victory were even more interesting than usual.
Or maybe he wasn't. Maybe he was just over joyed after winning his first trophy in 2 Seasons. Here are some of the quotes.
1. He feeds off trophies
"It's difficult for me to live without titles,"
"I need to feed myself with titles. This is important for me and the boys.
2.Not winning in two years felt like twenty.
"I started in 2000. I won the UEFA Cup in 2003, the Champions League in 2004. I didn't have time to process that.
"I went in a different direction, with two seasons without a trophy, and it looked like I was 20 years without a trophy.
"This is a good problem, to have that feeling that two years is a long time. That's a good feeling.
3. He feels like a kid
"For me, it's important to feel that I'm a kid. Before the game,
that I had the same feelings as my first final however many years ago.
"It's important to feel the same happiness after the victory, and to feel a kid at 52 years old."
4. He felt like killing his staff who broke the news about Manchester City's loss
"I told them (the players) I didn't want any kind of manifestation
or disappointment if City scored in the last minute, or Liverpool won. I
wanted complete silence.
"We were successful on that. But one member of my staff jumped up in
the bus. Silvino (Louro, an assistant first-team coach). I wanted to
kill the guy. He broke the rule."
5.He says Manchester United and Liverpool are still in the title race.
"It's in the hands of everyone," he said.
"We have lots of difficult matches to play. City have difficult
matches. United are third, right? Nine points (behind)? They are in the
title race too. Liverpool, I predicted that."
6. Zouma is the new Desailly
"For me, the pain was to see a player play yesterday (Barnes) and Matic not playing today."
Defender Kurt Zouma stepped into Matic's midfield position and
played with a maturity beyond his 20 years, with Mourinho comparing him
with a World Cup winner and former Chelsea player.
"Our new Marcel Desailly worked hard in the week," Mourinho said.
"The kid did a fantastic job for us."
What do you think? Was he drunk or not? One thing is for sure.He was certainly very happy.
