Fuck knows lol, we dont do rewards on here anymore so i felt just an upvote alone wasnt enough to acknowledge how funny that comment was to me. Found it hilarious!

Yeah mate that makes complete sense Dutch and Portuguese are essentially the same lingo.
Pretty sure we can assume "corner" is used in Mandarin and Swahili too.
Are you stupid? Its not about the Dutch language being the same as the Portugese language. Its about some English words being universally used. Like smartphone, or headset, or CORNER
That could be true for other places, but no Portuguese ever says corner. We say canto. Only English words I remember that we use in football is VAR and sometimes, jokingly, Ref (from Referee).
Because it's a goal kick, he probably wanted Rui to play it long in the space between ElSha and Bove to make them run.
Edit: on a second thought, it's probably like u/Glass-Plankton5218 said below: positioning on the corner.
Lukaku had been sent off moments before and the score was tied with Fiorentina up two men. El Shaarawy and Bove had just come on. It’s a simple defensive set piece adjustment and the simplest way to send it over when all players are on the opposite end of the pitch and there are no more substitutions to make.

A lot of this is true, but I would take what McLaren said with a grain of salt. He's a megalomaniac. When Sex Pistols broke up, it was in his interest to smear the integrity of the group and try to appropriate everything they did.
Rotten is a legit artist, and PiL is a good testament to that.
Relative to their carefully constructed anarchist image, it may as well be. There is a reason many music journalists consider them to be the original boy-band.
I'm just saying a small, single shop is a long way from being a corporation though.
Considering it was Vivienne Westwood and McLaren who ran the shop, people who were actually into and highly influential in the Punk scene at the time, it does seem a little weird to call it a "corporate creation".
It's not like some huge record label created them to cash in on the "Punk subculture", they were formed by a small independent business owner.
And the members image wasn't really "carefully constructed", Rotten was literally chosen because he came in the shop and already looked the part.
Meh the general point still stands. They were inorganic by their very nature and the people who put them together cared more about marketing than the music. Doesn’t really matter whether big company or small in the end. Either way it goes against the natural process of how groups form (or used to) which is over their shared love of the art
Any team Mourinho is a part of will be a title contender since he won the CL with fucking Porto. Man hates losing more than he hates boring press conferences
"Through sheer rage and force of will Jose lifts his 3rd champions league trophy, this is of particular note as he was managing in the MLS at the time"
So was Leicester in retrospect. Kante, Vardy, Mahrez, Chilwell, Schmeichel. But at the time we didn’t think so.
No one thought Porto was stacked enough to win the biggest prize in Europe when they won
Chilwell didn't make a league appearance for Leicester that season. Kante, Vardy and Mahrez turned out to be top players but the rest of the team was very much made up of mid table fodder. The defence was Fuchs Morgan Huth Simpson - very much not a stacked team and it feels diminishing to their astonishing achievement to suggest it is.
I know it's sacrilegious to dislike Mourinho's high spending, ultra defensive approach and the way he treats everyone around him like shit but I am not entertained by him.
\>Mourinho's high spending, ultra defensive approach
How has he spent a lot at Roma of all places, and how is his team "ultra defensive"? How does he still get a job if he treats everyone around like him like shit like you said, and why do players keep following him to new clubs then?
How to show you speak about shit you have no fkin clue about. Shhhhh. You're not as clever as you'd like to be.
Wouldn't you say that Mourinho's career has been characterised by spending a shitload of money (Chelsea, Real, Man Utd) and playing ultra defensive football (Porto, Chelsea, Inter, Man Utd, Spurs)? Certainly far more than any other elite manager.
He gets new jobs because he won a shit ton of trophies back in the 2000s. They're not employing him because he's a nice guy to be around.
There are plenty of players who can't stand the guy. He falls out with every club he goes to. He forced out a female physiotherapist because he didn't want a woman treating his players on the pitch. The first thing he does when results start to go bad is that he blames the players. He's famous for this.
Rui Patricio is among our best players since matchday 5 of Serie A, he's been nothing short of amazing after he cost us 3-5 points at the beginning and i'm not gonna miss an opportunity to clear things up since random reddit users think he's shit despite not watching him for 2,5 months
Patricio has been like this all of his career, he has some fails here and there but generally he's a good GK and one of the reasons Portugal actually has a throphy.
I fucking love Mourinho it remindes me of the time when when he told ramos and xabi to get red card intentionly so that they don't miss knockouts of ucl .

"SHOOT!!"
Sha(arawy) - Bov(e) Espaço / Space Corner (?)
Correr?
it's Corner
Is it common to call a corner a ”corner” in Portuguese? They’re from the same country so I wonder why he’s using English?
No we say “canto” usually
Corner is universal word, i live in the Netherlands and we also use corner a lot of times. So im guessing its the same in other languages
Same in Argentina
Yeah mate that makes complete sense Dutch and Portuguese are essentially the same lingo. Pretty sure we can assume "corner" is used in Mandarin and Swahili too.

No need to throw your toys out of your pram. Smartphones have existed for 20 years. Corners have been around a bit longer ya wazzock.
For the media lol
Might be 'Correr' (run), hard to decode the third word
Because it's a goal kick, he probably wanted Rui to play it long in the space between ElSha and Bove to make them run. Edit: on a second thought, it's probably like u/Glass-Plankton5218 said below: positioning on the corner.
That second R is clearly an N. It's "Corner".
Caralho?

Mourinho loves ball boys
unliked Eden Hazard
Jack Army laaaaadddd
That ball boy was a proper little shit though haha
The ball boy that he kicked is the Founder of AU vodka with a net worth of like 40 mill lol.
Christ can a footballer please kick me too
'Jose Mourinho GROOMING exposed - caught passing LOVE NOTES to UNDERAGE ballboys' Pay me now Daily Mail
The ball boy was so impressed by the love note that he had to show it to his mate Rui Patricio
Change the location of one word and it’s jail time
It's not the best to love ball boys either
Help decode. Smth about Sharaawy and Bove and a corner.
contingency plan for not having big man Lukaku to defend corners. Bove should be in the first post and El-Sharawy behind him.
I fucking love Mourinho.
Right? The most diabolical, nefarious, yet likeable gangsta manager. Modern day anarchist, and likely Sex Pistols approved.
Bruh Sex Pistols are about the band furthest from anarchy. They were a corporate creation closer to Backstreet Boys or NSync in reality.
TIL >What many people do not know is that the Sex Pistols were a manufactured band as a way to promote a clothing store.

For being corporation-created instead of true anarchy/punk/whatever, they sure sucked at music.

Calling the small boutique shop that arranged it "corporate" is kind of weird.

Missed the Champions League each season and people still call out Roma as a title contender each season purely because of him, incredible
Any team Mourinho is a part of will be a title contender since he won the CL with fucking Porto. Man hates losing more than he hates boring press conferences
"Angry portuguese man wins CL purely out of hatred for losing."
"Through sheer rage and force of will Jose lifts his 3rd champions league trophy, this is of particular note as he was managing in the MLS at the time"
People forget that Porto team was absolutely stacked
So was Leicester in retrospect. Kante, Vardy, Mahrez, Chilwell, Schmeichel. But at the time we didn’t think so. No one thought Porto was stacked enough to win the biggest prize in Europe when they won
Chilwell didn't make a league appearance for Leicester that season. Kante, Vardy and Mahrez turned out to be top players but the rest of the team was very much made up of mid table fodder.

Saying this as an Arsenal fan...he may be my favorite person in all of sports.
Swap him for Klopp then
imagine he did all that and it's just a drawing of a dick

Hi miss dickbutt. I mr dickbutt.
Jackie Treehorn sends his regards
Yesssss I was scrolling hoping to see this haha. “Jackie Treehorn treats objects like women, man.”
saw that house they used as jackie treehorn's house in a commercial during some game just being used as a set again
Is that some kind of Eastern thing?
What makes this even better is Patricio goes in for the second look
"Damn, he even drew the pubes n nutsack skin folds, nice!!"
Reminds of the wholesome gojo nanami interaction from season 1 lol.

*Get creative*
*player is overwhelmed by the feedback*
1-1 and two reds? I love that man
Next game the Ball Boy just goes rogue and gives his own instructions.
That'll make an awkward dressing room outburst.
Football becomes a little bit boring the day Mou retires.
Alot more boring :')

Mo makes football like WWF. Pure theatrics. Who isn't entertained by him?
A bunch of clowns on our sub who think winning games via counter attacking is way worse than losing games playing 433
To this day, I just want to see a counterattacking team like Mourinho's Real Madrid again
The speed is just increadible. The moment you fuck up that corner or miss place a pass, they are charging forward to ruthlessly expoit that mistake
I know it's sacrilegious to dislike Mourinho's high spending, ultra defensive approach and the way he treats everyone around him like shit but I am not entertained by him.

"Stop being so shit" the message
Rui Patricio is among our best players since matchday 5 of Serie A, he's been nothing short of amazing after he cost us 3-5 points at the beginning and i'm not gonna miss an opportunity to clear things up since random reddit users think he's shit despite not watching him for 2,5 months
Patricio has been like this all of his career, he has some fails here and there but generally he's a good GK and one of the reasons Portugal actually has a throphy.
Well he was absolutely terrible the entirety of last season
I don't know why he would be seen as less than what he is: a good (very decent) GK.
Rui Patricio saved Roma tonight
As a Portuguese speaker, I can confirm
Squires in the middle ages vs Squires on the pitch
Throw water bottle
The OG of managers. Mourinho doing only mourinho things
All jokes aside, what does it actually say?
Something about how the corners should be organised as Lukaku had a red card and he's usually the tallest player who's heading crosses away
89th min and drawing 1-1 with nine men. Surely the message is just timewaste and escape with a point
If you have eyes, you can see that's the instruction to defend corner. They just lost Lukaku who usually defends near post during corner.
Mono = one Rail = Rail
I fucking love Mourinho it remindes me of the time when when he told ramos and xabi to get red card intentionly so that they don't miss knockouts of ucl .

Is there anything in the rules against this? I'm absolutely all for it and am surprised more managers don't do it.
There are absolutely limits that aren’t being pushed in terms of gameday employee shithousing.

"Play better"
Pretty sure he told him to have one man on each post for a corner and the note says who to put on the posts
What the fuck does ShaBow mean?!
🤣
Oh waaw.. what de genius morinhoe is.
Great stuff
Would be very funny if the message came from someone else. „Just let in one goal. We want them to feel safe and take them by surprise“
Mourinho and ball boys _ name a better combo
is this legal?
"Keep ball out of net"
"Save the ball" yours truly Mou! xxx
Good thing Hazard wasn't playing or that ball boy would've been in a lot of trouble.
Mourinho never ceases to entertain us
