After 4,830 days, Jose Mourinho will once again manage Real Madrid in a La Liga match. That is how long it has been since the charismatic Portuguese last led the Royal Club in pursuit of points, and tonight he will have that task away to Espanyol. Just as in 2010, when he arrived from Inter and took charge of Real, the coach from Setubal has the same objective: to knock eternal rivals Barcelona off the top of the table. But it will be far from easy. This will be Mourinho’s 29th season in league football, and it is interesting to look at how he performed in his opening matches throughout a career in which he has managed clubs in Portugal, England, Spain, Italy and Turkey. In his previous 28 seasons, Mourinho recorded 17 wins, eight draws and just two defeats. His first came on September 23, 2000, when he lost 1-0 with Benfica to Boavista.Diomande’s fascination with Mourinho: “I’m ready to die for him”It is also interesting to see how Mourinho began his La Liga seasons when he was in cha..

“There are no favourable starts. It’s an easy thing to throw out there but pretty ridiculous. It’s a tough start” said Manchester United coach Michael Carrick ahead of the season opener against Hull, who are newcomers to the Premier League. And boy was he right! The team which ended up in an elite league due to Southampton’s ‘spygate’ and exclusion from the playoffs delivered a dream start of the season – a 2-0 win over Manchester United! A fantastic achievement for a team which is one of the candidates for relegation and against a team which finished third in the Premier League third last season.But how was this possible? Well, there are a couple of reasons for that. United’s new looking midfield (Santos, Tielemans) allowed Hull players to bully them and win the majority of duels. The energy of Manchester players was also missing. It looked like they were playing this game at the end of the season, in May, and not in August. Totally opposite to Hull, who were buzzing from the first mi..
