🗣️ Patrick Vieira: “Mourinho to Real Madrid? Yes, he could be the right man. He knows how to handle champions. Me and Mourinho haven’t always gotten along, but over time I’ve realized he was right.
What happened? He told me what I didn’t want to hear. I’ll tell you a story.
March 2009, Man United-Inter. I was returning from injury and Mourinho told me: ‘I need you in the starting lineup, you’ll play 60 minutes.’
After four minutes I lost control of Vidić, who scored, and at half-time I saw the substitutions on the board: I was out, Muntari in.
The next day I went to his office, he hadn’t kept his promise of 60 minutes. And he said: ‘You didn’t play well, I have to do what’s best for the team.’ Today, as a coach, I say he was right.” @Gazzetta_it
