I’ve been and still would like to be an admirer of Jose Mourinho. I want to see that charismatic manager who once upon a time occupied so much attention for the right reasons.

The Mourinho who creates noise only out of controversy rather than achievements, I don’t enjoy.

It’s a sad reflection on a once-stellar operator morphing from an enigmatic, unique individual to an acerbic critic of everything and everyone.

His latest targets this week have been VAR official Atilla Karaoglan and the whole of Turkish football, which both apparently 'smell bad' according to the 61-year-old Fenerbahce manager.
