What makes him a "Special One"...
The term "Special One" was coined at Mourinho's press conference as he accepted the job at Chelsea. When I first heard him say that I agreed. A Special One is a Coach who makes the difference. Talent is the beginning, training is the middle and teamwork is the end. And only a Special One can manage all three phases. All great dynasties have one thing in common. A Special Leader. What I look for in Special Leaders are the words they say and the results they get. Words and phrases are powerful. They show the organization of the mind and the passion in the heart. When Mourinho talks we listen. When his teams play we watch. When we see his teams win we wonder can he do it again? And of course he does. And when he fails, his failure always towers over other's successes. His worst season is another's best. We sometimes ask, Can he win the big one again? The answer is, All of them are the Big One...once we win it all, EVERY GAME BECOMES THE BIG ONE. And that's what makes Mourinho special.
